Tutorial: Localization/Translation in Godot is so easy!

Quick, straightforward tutorial on how to set up localization in Godot engine. Here are the resources mentioned in the video:

People are complaining about too fast, but I'd rather have to go back 5 seconds to hear something I've already heard than go forward 5 seconds and maybe miss a very important piece of information.

EDIT: great tutorial also lmao

[youtubegg]

Great! Now i need a tutorial on how to pronounce "Godot" correctly

[natanmaia]

Quick but has basically all I needed to start, thank you!

[AG-cdit]

Sweet and short and to the point and full of info. Thank you!

[jackoftraes]

I am extremely impressed with the information density. I normally watch videos a 2x speed, but not with this video! I was hoping that I could use the spreadsheet method for localization and you've helped me with that, thanks! Definitely saving this for later reference.

Side Note: I was amused with the different pronunciations of Godot each time the word was spoken 😂

[NullCyan]

thanks, very helpful! it's too fast-paced but it helped me

[SnowPeaGames]

Extremely helpful. I've now got my menu (mostly) translated into French, Spanish, German and Gaelic.

It's a shame that only some UI objects auto translate. For example panels/buttons do, lists/tabs don't, but that's an easy fix overall.

quick and straight to the point, great

Fantastic video, subscribed basically 30 seconds in also finally someone that pronounces it Godot and not Godot or the even worse Godot!

Thank you so much for this video! I really really apreciate it ^_^

Just, found this, and it's already been a huge help, though... could have done with it being a touch slower. But thank you.

By the way there’s a GoogleTranslate function in google sheet 😮

[KartikNarayanan]

love the content but its too fast to grok.

I downloaded a Godot game that's in Japanese, but it appears that the person who created the game doesn't have it localized to English. Is there a way for me to do that myself?

[martyballamore]

How could I add string variables inbetween translated text? say, a player's name in a dialog box or something?

[Yellow_Plus_Red]

0:29 Can someone explain why the on-screen text says: "FYI Don't do this for translations!"? I don't understand, why would this person show something in a tutorial and then tell us not to do it? What are we supposed to do? I am so confused. How else do we generate the translation files?? Wtf????

[DobleCode]

it doesn't work 🤔, every time I import the csv it doesn't load the languages and only "translations_tutorial.csv" remains with an x in red (Godot 4)

[nosdregamon]

0:29 "FYI: Don't do this for translations!" !? Wasn't this the point of the video?

[victorpdesenvolvedor]

Please, could you tell me if there is a way to translate all the dialogs of Dialogic at once? I don't have time to create the translations so I would like to select everything and translate with an A.I or use some dialogic option or some other plugin, could you help me with that please?

I did the tutorial and it works! However I would like to learn something else.
Suppose I have an options menu in my game.
I would like to be able to select the language I want to play in from the menu itself, by pressing a button.
By doing so, the game would switch to the selected language.
Once I close the game, I would like it to remember the selection I made.
Finally, it would also be nice to have a return to default button.
If that were possible I would be very grateful to know how I can do it.
I am learning Godot and everything is new to me.
Thank you very much!
