It's very difficult right now, I will try to make it easier to do translations in the future.

if it's something like editing the text, I can surely do it.

[VIRGIN KLM]

I can like half do it, but the allignment gets messed up, yeah better wait for later.

Can do a QT translation first.
Sample can see

Hi, I've just discovered this wonderful emulator As soon as it is possible, I could do a French translation (Emulator and website if needed)

[VIRGIN KLM]

Here's my contribution then:
(revisiting)

It's not 100% full, but everything on the main UI etc is translated and acurately (I haven't translated the developer stuff yet but I guess it's not that important), I even translated HLE which I know the exact term in Greek! XD

How to do translation? Maybe i would translation to serbian. I'm from Serbia, so i speak serbian. That's my native language. So, please, can someone tell me what file should i edit to do my translation. Maybe i'll do it when i find time.

Okay for your information:

To make a translation you need:
-Qt linguist
- a copy of the ppsspp repo
- git
- a github account

Then you add the translation with qt linguist and make a pull request to the github.

If you don´t know how to do that either read some tutorials or wait till someone makes it easyer to add translations.

Then waiting it will be :-)

Can someone do the translation into Portuguese of Brazil or even Portugal, it is almost like someone? I even do, but seems a bit complicated. If something involved in HTML, I even know a little.

Okay, i can download Qt linguist, i can make a github acc..
By git do u mean some rev of emulator? I have that off course.
And how to get a ppsspp repository?

Mini-tutorial

First, you need a GitHub account. Create a account, login, go to the PPSSPP repository and fork it (click on Fork icon).

Now, if you're using Windows (if not, you can figure how to do it), download and install GitHub for Windows, login with your GitHub account and click on your profile. You will see <Your GitHub Userrname>/ppsspp. Click in Clone and wait.

After that, go to C:/Users/<Your Windows Username>/Documents/GitHub/ppsspp/Qt/languages/ and make a copy of the language file you want to base your translation (the recommended one is English since it's the original language). Open this file on Qt Linguist (that is part of Qt Creator) and make your changes.

When you finish it, go back to GitHub app and open your repo (click on the right arrow). You will see uncommited changes in blue. Click in Show, type something like "Add <Your Language> translation to Qt4 UI" on Commit Message (Required) and leave Extended Description (Optional) in blank or type a observation (like "Partial translation" if you didn't complete it). Click in Commit. You will see the Sync button with blue color, click on it and wait. It will sync your local repo with your remote repo on GitHub.

Finally, go back to your repo page on GitHub (not hrydgard), click on Pull Request, select both master repo (should be default), put something on the Pull Request message (can be the same of the commit message) and wait until Henrik or other developer merges your commit (after making sure you didn't make a mess).

It's a similar process to any changes you want to push to the emulator, but I think translation is the most easy one to start. I hope it helps.
