Add new Language in Minetest

[srifqi]

Hi.
Anyone know how to add new language in Minetest?

[rubenwardy]

Do you mean programming language,

or human language such as French, Spanish?

[srifqi]

Human language (Indonesian)

http://dev.minetest.net/Translation explains the translation process. The Weblate page seems to be down at the moment however.

How to test it? (Before uploading to git)

[RealBadAngel]

Be sure to compile your game with:
-DENABLE_FREETYPE=1 -DENABLE_GETTEXT=1
or use windows build with freetype and gettext support.

Create a folder named after shortcut of your language, then edit .po file inside.
You can use https://github.com/minetest/minetest/bl ... inetest.po as a template.

Dont forget to set in minetest.conf:
langauge = your_language_shortcut

Freetype isn't a requirement for language support. GetText and libIconV are needed to translate the stuff.

I already have freetype6.dll and libiconv2.dll
How to get gettext?

Freetype isn't a requirement for language support. GetText and libIconV are needed to translate the stuff.

But its needed for some national characters.
