FreeOrion includes support for multiple languages. As we approach 1.0, translations will become an important part of the project. During the earlier stages it is not so critical, as much of the game content will change.

Anyone interested in adding support for another language can do so with these steps:

  1. In default/ copy the existing eng_stringtable.txt and rename it to represent the language you are translating into, eg. fre_stringtable.txt
  2. Edit this file, and create the translated entries
  3. Select your new stringtable file in the Options menu

That's it!

After making a new translation, or updating an already existing one, please make a new page on the wiki for your translated stringtable (in the manner of the German translation) so it can be incorporated into future FreeOrion releases for others to use, critique and improve.
