Phrases are not included on the website.
Hi Eric,

As we talked today, I started the work of adding the translations that are missing and revising some sentences that were not well placed.

As the image in the link below I found these phrases that are in English and are not on the site. I checked the other maps and the same thing happens.

Yup, these are implemented in the .map files because I was hoping folks would be creating their own maps, which wouldn't be in the translation system. Sadly, the mod tools are a little too difficult to use.

I am not sure if the systems are in place to have localization to these descriptions. I will double check, and if so, I will move them over. That being said, the text in the pictured' description will be removed fairly soon, as finishing those maps will be done either in this upcoming update, or the next one.

Perfect Eric, if you think better do the following, when the maps are "OK" you give me the description in English and I'll do the translation and return it to you translated. Or if you manage to put it on the site, even better.

- The word "NO" and "yes" are not translated.

- Another untranslated word in the game. However, she can be found on the website.

Doubts
* The main tutorial 4 is with audio in Portuguese, I thought it was fantastic it was very good, my doubt is, if I change any word in this tutorial 4 that has audio in Portuguese or in others that have audio in Portuguese, should I let you know? https://imgur.com/a/J17ss0o

* For "main tutorial 1" there is no audio in Portuguese. Will there be this audio in Portuguese in the future?

These might be hard coded in the GUI, I will check it out.

You can hit Alt-T in the main menu. Then click on the "Car Designer" and then return to the main menu. Every piece of text from there on will have the ID number in front of it.

Go ahead and make changes to it. I will redo the audio when the translations are completed and I update my billing information on Amazon.

It was likely missing translation when I did the audio. I will do the audio again at some point. it might not be before release. But it will be done. It's fairly easy to do on my end, although a little time consuming and tedious.

Thanks for the answers, so I will review the tutorials. And I hope I can get the audio in Portuguese before the release, it will help players a lot.

* Eric, is it possible to have these two words translated in-game?

Sadly not at this time. They're static images.

I may in the future add images with the translations myself. But it won't be for a while.
RAFAEL-BR 20 Jun, 2021 @ 8:16pm 
I hope to see it in the future then. I made several small changes and other big ones, finally a lot of work ahead :)

Eric, in the tutorial videos you can see the English subtitle. If I translate these subtitles, would it be possible to put them in the videos?

Regarding the newspaper, I saw you talking in another post that you are still working on the news, I would like to know if they will be there on the site to facilitate the translation. The translated news would bring a really cool immersion for players.

Yes, you can find them here: http://gearcity.info/tutorials/Scripts/

These are hard coded into the videos, so the translations need to be line for line. Do not insert or remove any line breaks. Otherwise, I will have trouble syncing it with the audio and video.

Also it takes a little bit of time and effort on my end, so be sure the translations are accurate before telling me that they're ready.

Currently, the Japanese video tutorials are being done. They're ahead of you in line until I get caught up with the translator.

Regarding the newspaper, I saw you talking in another post that you are still working on the news, I would like to know if they will be there on the site to facilitate the translation. The translated news would bring a really cool immersion for players.

The newspaper articles, magazine reviews, and did you knows are in the ./media/scripts folder. I suggest waiting until the next update to touch these, as I've added about 200-300% more text to them. Anyway, after that update, if you translate them, email them to me, and I'll include them with the update after that.

Thank you so much Eric.

I will continue the work of proofreading and translating the tutorials and other parts of the game and regarding the video, I will try to translate little by little.

As for the newspaper, I'll wait for the next update then.

Eric, if I can't translate and proofread everything before release can I continue work after release? I have a lot of work ahead of me, and I've been doing that work after my job and on weekends.

There is no rush to finish. I'm not going to just vanish after the game is released. I plan on supporting GC in a bug fix capacity until I am no longer allowed to work on the game.

Meaning, that the game will occasionally get updated, including localization files.
RAFAEL-BR 22 Jun, 2021 @ 4:29am 
Perfect, that's great.

Hi Eric, I have a question.
At the "?" that I marked in the image we have an explanation of each command. In relation to the “Auto sale”, where exactly is it?

That phrase is not on the website.

*https://imgur.com/a/ARmswUf (Designed new chassis) is on the website, but not apparently does not work. Maybe it's not linked to that phrase.
