Creating the translation file

Create a new file, and name it (language).json. For example, you could have de.json or german.json. The name doesn't have to follow any rules, just as long as it's recognisable as that language.

Copy the contents of en.json into your file. en.json can be found here on GitHub, or alternatively in the mod install - Mods\QSB\Translations\en.json

Go through each of the English items and translate them into your language.

You can test your translation by putting your file in Mods\QSB\Translations\, alongside the other translation files.

Note: The "Language" field at the top should be set as one of these options : ENGLISH, SPANISH_LA, GERMAN, FRENCH, ITALIAN, POLISH, PORTUGUESE_BR, JAPANESE, RUSSIAN, CHINESE_SIMPLE, KOREAN, TURKISH

Once you are happy with it, go to this page to create a PR with your translation file. In the "Name your file..." box put your file name and extension (e.g. de.json), and in the text box copy and paste the contents of your translation file.

Scroll down to the "Propose new file" box. In the title box (default "Create new file") write something along the lines of "Add translation for (language)".

Press the big green "Propose new file", and we'll review it soon!
