/script d(GetCVar("language.2")) returns "en" so the client is indeed in english, but the addon menu and its settings, prints etc could use swedish with the translation you have?
If you check my post again i added the complete translation for the list you provided. |
It's not that easy r4cken.
Check this explanation of addon multi-language support (which "Beam Me Up" uses as well):
https://wiki.esoui.com/How_to_add_localization_support
In short:
The language variable of your client (which is "en") will load the lua file with the translated strings. In this case "en.lua".
This is done already "before your addon code is executed" via the manifest txt file of the addon:
Code:
localization/$(language).lua
So you cannot change or preset the variable "$(language)" in the txt file somehow.
It is determined automatically.
The above line will load localization/en.lua for your client and e.g. localization/de.lua for my client.
To support non official languages:
You must load the en.lua file, and afterwards manually load strings of another language (the Swedish ones). To assure they get loaded you need some trigger and this is what I meant with a "Settings menu entry to manually choose the language, if it's not the client language".
