Zelda's Adventure Remastered - Projet portage & traduction !

[JappaWakka]

There are a few details left to check, but the work is done. I added the UI Strings and the rest to the Excel document.
It is translated into French: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing

Il reste quelques détails à vérifier, mais le travail est fait. J’ai ajouté les UI Strings et le reste au document Excel.
C'est traduit en français.

I can't see any French in that sheet, is that correct?

[Threepwang]

No, this is not normal, here is the Excel file on my cloud:
https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?c...CtdBm3dHg20RBy

It’s strange because when I open the Excel file you uploaded, it is translated into French.


Yes, in French punctuation often takes a space. Exemple:

[Sylvain_rocher]

Oh is that why you guys always put a space before an exclamation mark as well? I didn't know. I'll be sure to fix that in my code

Indeed ! But I don’t always add them, especially when the window size is too small

[JappaWakka]

Threepwang I think the translation for reset controls should specify what it's resetting to prevent confusion. Deepl gives "Réinitialiser contrôles" as an option, would this work?
The pdf you sent also has the french column of the UI Text sheet empty, so I entered them myself from the images.
I think you forgot to translate "DELETED" which briefly appears after confirming the deletion of the save game. I also don't see any translations for the Controls settings submenu and I don't know the exact names of the Shrines for the Map Menu.
I also noticed in the google spreadsheet, You put alternate options for the items in the Explanation column. I added the Explanation column for explaining why the translation was chosen or what the translation meant if it differed from the original meaning in some way. If you had two options you could write them both in the translation column like "Boussole des Forces / Boussole de la Force" and then in the Explanation column explain what the difference is between the two and why one would pick one option over the other.

Anyway, I've marked the missing strings as well as the insufficient "Reset Controls" translation with red on the UI Text sheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing
I'm gonna test if the translations I chose fit and if necessary make the buttons with the fancy font (like exit and maybe map) a little wider.

[JappaWakka]

No, "Réinitialiser contrôles" won't fit. Is "Annuler Contrôles" grammarly correct? Because that barely fits already.

[Threepwang]

JappaWakka When I put words in the right column, it's because I'm hesitating between two possible translations. I would like to see with @Ulyssome or Hrvg or whoever wants the best choice. Don't rush too much in adding the code in French, as there will be updates to make.

Boussole des Forces or Boussole des Forces
Carte des Forces ou Carte de la Force
Sanctuaire des Forces or Sanctuaire de la Force

Boussole des Feux or Boussole du Feu
Carte des Feux ou Carte du Feux
Sanctuaire des Feux or Sanctuaire du Feu

Sauvegarder & Quitter or Sauver & Quitter
Sauvegarder sans Quitter or Sauver sans Quitter

Empty = Vide or -
Quitter ou QuiT
Done = Fait or OK

Off = Sans or Non
On = Avec or Oui

That will depend on the space. Whether or not it is possible to enlarge an image. For example, this one. Ideally, SAUVEGARDER is better than SAUVER, but we need to widen the buttons! Is it too complicated, I don't know.

I don't think it's necessary to specify "Annuler Contrôles" in French. Otherwise, you can put "Réinitiliser". I'll think about it...
."

I will send you the entire translation of the file in another format so that you can complete the Excel file.

[JappaWakka]

I think translating Shrine into Temple like I did for Dutch might be better to fit the available space on the map screen.
Sanctuaire has too many letters.

OOOOOH I know where your translations went! Instead of going to the UI Text tab on google spreadsheets, you put the translations on the Items tab

[JappaWakka]

By the way, the gray lines don't have to be translated, they're just to explain what the strings belong to

[JappaWakka]

I could make the reset controls button reset all the settings to default instead? Like Reset Settings, then using Réinitiliser would work

[JappaWakka]

Looking pretty good I messed around a bit with the font sizes so that the text on some of the buttons is smaller when french is the current language

[JappaWakka]

Also here's an example of how a map name would look

Yes, that's an excellent idea!

The rendering of the menus in French is very beautiful!

Indeed, there are two official French terms for all Zelda episodes in French. "Sanctuary" & "Temple". So you should put Temple because it's shorter.

A temple is generally a building designed for worship, while a shrine is a more intimate sacred place, often associated with devotional practices.



But the other tenses having longer names, I think we'll need to enlarge the drawing.

All of this is very encouraging!!

EST (EAST) et OUEST (WEST) sont inversés --> EST à droite et OUEST à gquche.

EAST and WEST are reversed --> EAST on the right and WEST on the left.

Aligning the text like that would not fit and would make the code more difficult. I think it looks fine this way. I can double check if the other map names fit on the current way too. The title also can't really be enlarged afaik because then it might overlap with the map layout

[JappaWakka]

EST (EAST) et OUEST (WEST) sont inversés --> EST à droite et OUEST à gquche.

EAST and WEST are reversed --> EAST on the right and WEST on the left.

Do you really think it's necessary to translate the wind directions? I mean... I could, but should I? especially that E is in a difficult spot
