Hello,

Will there be official translation packs for IC 5? And will these be available with the launch? Important for me is German.

Thanks,
Markus

There will not be any official translations with the launch of version 5, no. Whether there will be any in the future, Im unsure. At present we are concentrating on getting version 5 out

I've started working on a full IC5 German translation a while ago and hope to have it ready for the final IC5 release. I've also offered few people access so that they can help me, so if you're interested, I'll get you access!

Can one translate v5 starting from a v4 translation as a basis?

Yes, but many strings changed and also several strings were removed, so you may translate them unnecessary!

Cool, I wouldn't be affected by removed strings, I have reached a good translation point where I only translate strings I actually find missing in practice.

 

Regarding changed strings, is there a chance a key name is kept but its content/meaning changes? That would be the only problem I see.
