Building Translations

The translations target writes game string tables to target/gamedata/configs/text from src/engine/translations through the bundled XRF tools binary.

Build translations

npm run cli -- build --include translations
npm run cli -- build -i translations

Selecting a Language

The default locale is configured in cli/config.json as locale. The current default is ukr.

Override it for a build with --language:

npm run cli -- build --include translations --language eng

Supported locale keys are listed in cli/config.json under available_locales.

Locale Resource Packs

Resource packs for voice and localized assets are configured under resources.mod_assets_locales in cli/config.json. When asset overrides are enabled, the resources build includes override folders plus the locale folders for the selected language.

Sources

XRF uses JSON translation sources for generated multilingual output and can also copy static XML translation files where they are part of the source tree. Use the translation CLI commands when converting existing game XML into JSON sources.
