Translation and texture help needed

[stjobe]

I'm working on an addon to help sorcerers remember to summon their minions - or notice that they died - and I could use some translation help:

Edit: After re-thinking the logic after reading Garkin's post, I do not require any translations. The addon will be available shortly.

I'd love it if someone could check the French and German clients for the names for these abilities:
Unstable Familiar
Volatile Familiar
Unstable Clannfear
Summon Winged Twilight
Summon Restoring Twilight
Summon Twilight Matriarch

Alternatively, does anyone know if it's possible to get the translated names from the English names?

Also, if someone knows the icon file for these, I'd much appreciate to know that too:
Unstable Familiar
Unstable Clannfear
Summon Winged Twilight
Summon Restoring Twilight

(it should be something like /esoui/art/icons/ability_sorcerer_somethingsomething.dds)

Thank you for your help!

I don't have a mage yet. Hope someone else have?

German:
Unstable Familiar = Instabiler Begleiter
Volatile Familiar = Explosiver Begleiter
Unstable Clannfear = Instabiler Clannbann
Summon Winged Twilight = Zwielichtschwinge beschwören
Summon Restoring Twilight = Zwielichtwahrerin beschwören
Summon Twilight Matriarch = Zwielichtmatriarchin beschwörern

But I think you can get all information you need using this function:

local skillType = SKILL_TYPE_CLASS -- [url]http://wiki.esoui.com/Globals#SkillType[/url]
 
--If you open skills window, everything is counted from the top, so: 
 
--skillIndex = 1 -- Dark Magic
--skillIndex = 2 -- Daedric Summoning
--skillIndex = 3 -- Storm Calling
local skillIndex = 2
 
--as I said all abilities are counted from the top, so:
-- abilityIndex = 1 -- ultimate: Summon Storm Atronach or morphed to Greater Storm Atronach / Summon Charged Atronach
-- abilityIndex = 2 -- Unstable Familiar (or Unstable Clannfear / Volatile Familiar)
-- abilityIndex = 3 -- Daedric Curse (or Explosive Curse / Velocious Curse ) 
-- abilityIndex = 4 -- Summon Winged Twilight (or Summon Restoring Twilight / Summon Twilight Matriarch)  
-- abilityIndex = 5 -- Bound Armor (or Bound Aegis / Bound Armaments) 
-- abilityIndex = 6 -- Conjured Ward (or Empowered Ward / Hardened Ward)  
-- abilityIndex = 7 -- passive: Rebate  
-- abilityIndex = 8 -- passive: Power Stone  
-- abilityIndex = 9 -- passive: Daedric Protection  
-- abilityIndex = 10 -- passive: Expert Summoner   
local abilityIndex = 2
 
local name, icon, earnedRank, passive, ultimate, purchased, progressionIndex = GetSkillAbilityInfo(skillType, skillIndex, abilityIndex)
d("name: " .. name .. ", icon: " .. icon )

Thank you Garkin, that was most helpful!

I might have to rethink the way my addon logic is structured, since there's really no need to check every summoning ability, just the ones the character has slotted - and then I can get the info I need from the functions you mentioned. Hmm... this bears thinking about

Anyway, thanks for both the information and the jolt out of my mindset
