Reis Cruzados III – Traduzindo qualquer guia de mod

Neste guia, I will show you how any user can automatically translate ck3 (Crusader Kings 3) localization files to other languages.

Isenção de responsabilidade

Este guia ainda é um trabalho em andamento. Some sections are still being revised and/or expanded. O “CK3-LocalistionChanger” program is not yet completely finished and will go through a few more functions/changes in the future. So I strongly recommend reading ReadMe as well. I’m happy to answer any questions.

The program

We use Python for the translation process. The program can be downloaded from my GitHub page.

Uma vez lá, the project must be downloaded as a zip file.

Then unzip the folder anywhere.

Python & Pacotes

Obrigatório:

• Python 3.1 
• googletrans 4.0.0rc1

It is important to use the googletrans version 4.0.0rc1, since the older version will not work.

Translation Process

CK3 Mod Directory

Primeiro, we have to locate the CK3 workshop directory.

You can usually find this under the following path

C:\...\...\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\1158310\ ....

The folder with the number 1158310 contains all of your downloaded ck3 workshop files.

In there you can find a lot of folders with numbers. Those numbers are identification numbers for the mod. The Identification Numbers can be found via Steam Workshop.

Once you have found the folder of the mod you want to translate head over to the folder which is called localization\english

This will look most likely something like that:

C:\…\…\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\1158310\MOD_ID\localization\LANGUAGE

Then copy the path of this folder.

Translator directory

Now we go to the path where the program was previously unpacked. There we open the Powershell directly.

We see the line marked with [1] when opening the Powershell. There is the path under which this was called.

Now we enter the command to start the translation [2].

To find the correct command for you please refer to the “Comandos” seção.

No meu caso, I want to translate from English (padrão) to Russian.

The command for this is python main.py -l2 ru Path

The translation will now take a while, depending on the size of the individual files [3]

When it’s done you can find the translated files in the folder /db/OUTPUT_LANGUAGE

No meu caso, I translated a part of the mod RICE for the Russian language project here on steam.

All thats left to do is to copy the folder back into the main mod in your workshop files.

Now your mod has an automatically generated translation.

Comandos

The general structure is
python main.py -l1 FROM_LANGUAGE -l2 TO_LANGUAGE -trans TRANSLATE? caminho

FROM_LANGUAGE
The default value is English, change if the original language is not English

TO_LANGUAGE
The default value is german, change if the desired output language is not german

TRANSLATE?
The default value is True, change to Falso if you want to keep FROM_LANGUAGE
( por exemplo. English texts in german localization)

Officially supported languages:

•  ‘en’ Inglês
• ‘de’ german
• ‘fr’ french
• ‘es’ Espanhol
• ‘zh-cn’ simplified Chinese
• ‘ko’ coreano

examples
this will translate from english (padrão) to french
python main.py -l2 fr D:\the\path\to\english\loc\folder

this will translate from french to german (padrão)
python main.py -l1 fr D:\the\path\to\english\loc\folder

this will just alter the first line and filename so that the localization is detected by the game
python main.py -trans 0 D:\the\path\to\english\loc\folder
