Sup. Is anyone knows how to make a universal mod translition. So that the mod has several available languages ​​at once. Maybe from “.mo” files? I dunno. I try to seek code realization of that thing.

Do you mean NPC dialogue or the game language?

You can go through every file and use Google Translate for non-asian languages with reasonable accuracy.

The more common the language like spanish. The better the translation. So long as slang is not used much. Which shouldn’t be a problem for basic game language.
