Languages

How would I create language files and use them so my mod can be used in multiple languages?

My Manager Pack can do this. I just have to put the source up.

I'm looking for a native way to do it with just Forge. Railcraft seems to be able to achieve this.

You can easily do that with a new configuration.

 

String translated = config.get("language", "myblock1", "My Block").value;

 

So you can switch beetwen different configuration files depending on Language you choose.

 

 

If you want to get current language:

 

FMLClientHandler.instance().getClient().gameSettings.language

That's not what I mean. I want to set up something like a language file which I can switch my mod to using. Like this: https://github.com/CovertJaguar/Railcraft-Localization

 

How would I, from that file apply all those language settings into my blocks and items?

Well that's the same.... You have to change the name you assing depending on translated value.

 

 

Ok, I think I'll make something later to show you what I mean.

This might interest you: https://github.com/SirSengir/BuildCraft/blob/master/common/buildcraft/core/utils/Localization.java

It simply loads a properties file, en_US.properties, for example, and reads the keys from that. An example of a properties file is: https://github.com/SirSengir/BuildCraft/blob/master/buildcraft_resources/lang/buildcraft/en_US.properties

Thanks! That's what I was looking for...
