CREATE LANGUAGE FILES
To create your language files, open the menu from Assets browser. Included Files > Open In Explorer
In the window that appears, create a folder called the default language folder.
and by default, create en.json file.
and enter these values in it by default;
{"en": {
"LanguageName": "English"
}
}
Change "en" and "English" to your language file in this section. For example, if your file name is "tr.json", you should change the values here to "tr" and "Turkish".
The more languages you want to add to your game, the more files you have to create.
In order to translate the text in your game, you need to write the default and value to these json files. ex :"default" : "translated text"
For example, in my game, there are texts "Play","Options","Exit". then I have to write the following to the json files;
en.json
{
"en": {
"LanguageName": "English",
"Play": "Play",
"Options": "Options",
"Exit": "Exit"
}
}
tr.json
{
"tr": {
"LanguageName": "Turkish",
"Play": "Başla",
"Options": "Ayarlar",
"Exit": "Çıkış"
}
}
HOW TO USE
If you have created the language files you are now ready to use them in gamemaker
Put the object named "LanguageSystemController" in the room.
You can now use the "lang" function to translate a text!
lang("Play")
draw_text(10, 10, lang("Play") )
If you are creating your variables in the create event, you should use "lang_static" so that your text is updated when the language changes.
