Translating script to chinese. [SOLVED!]

[kuromomo]

Hi, I have created a game with ren'py in English already, and was hoping to translate the whole story script into chinese. I had done all the adjustments as instructed on the site, but the game menu and dialogue are all coming up as boxes. I have put in a suitable font in the "game" folder, and now it just shows nothing instead (Not even boxes) Orz.

I'm currently using Ren'Py 6.11.2, and I've searched around the forums for some answers but they seem to fit for older versions instead.

Help please? >.<"

Please check out this cookbook recipe, which explains what you need to do to change the font and the line-breaking method.

Hi, thanks for the link, I refered to it and change the font for them.
But it's still not working. Orz
See if they're correct? (Maybe I did something wrong =W=")
The font is put under "MyGameNameFolder/game/"
And I've made a rpy script named translations.rpy to put in the menu translations from http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/tra ... eldChinese, and saved under the above folder too.

From script.rpy

Code: Select all

# You can place the script of your game in this file.

init:
    $ style.default.font = "HDZB_74.TTF"
    $ style.default.language = "eastasian"
    
    # Declare images below this line, using the image statement.
    # eg. image eileen happy = "eileen_happy.png"
    image logo = "logo.png"
    image day nightone = "days-night1.png"
    image day daytwo = "days-day2.png"

From Options

Code: Select all

 #########################################
    ## These let you customize the default font used for text in Ren'Py.

    ## The file containing the default font.

    # style.default.font = "HDZB_74.TTF"

    ## The default size of text.

    # style.default.size = 22

    ## Note that these only change the size of some of the text. Other
    ## buttons have their own styles.

From translations.rpy (Not sure if I have to copy that in here too, but I just try =W=")

Code: Select all

init:
    $ style.default.font = "HDZB_74.TTF"
    $ style.default.language = "eastasian"
init python:

    # Translatable strings found in common/00developer.rpy

    config.translations[u'Developer Menu'] = u'开发者菜单'
    config.translations[u'Return to the developer menu'] = u'返回开发者菜单'

Edit: Oh, the one thing I'm not sure was saving the script as UTF-8 unicode? I'm not sure how to get that to work using jEdit,couldn't find an option? to save that as.

Yeah, I've managed to solve my own problem. I've realised there is a problem with the font I used, I changed it to SimSun and it's fixed~ Thanks for all the help so far~ ^W^
