- This is a tool that will make it easier for you to translate the Aurora dashboard for Xbox 360
- It makes it easier for you to translate Aurora by giving you a nice/easy to use interface which shows you only the parts you need to translate
- It also allows you to compile the translation so that you can test it with Aurora to see that everything looks alright and that your translation is accurate
- You'll need Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or later installed on your computer (most computers have this already)
- If you want to compile the skin/translation you'll need to have the XDK installed or you need these 3 files in the bin folder (taken from the XDK):
- xuipkg.exe
- resxloc.exe
- resx2bin.exe
- In order to compile the skin/translation you also need the current skin for Aurora, when you press compile it'll ask you for it, if you press cancel it'll use "Skins\Default.xzp"
- You'll also of course need the translation files (en-US.xml from the aurora translation helper or whatever updated release Phoenix has made since)
Ctrl + S -> Saves the current line Ctrl + F -> Brings up the search form (basically a custom filter really) Ctrl + Shift + A -> It'll ask you if you want to set all similar items (same original string) to whatever you have in the translation box right now Ctrl + Shift + S -> Save current translation Ctrl + Shift + C -> Trigger compilation Ctrl + Mousewheel -> Change the text size of the textboxes and listview
- Swizzy - i'm the guy that made this for ya ;)
- Phoenix - These are the guys that made the Aurora Dashboard, without them this tool would never have existed ;)
- SpkLeader - Thanks for making "Aurora Translation Helper" which basically is the whole Compilitation part ;)
- Anyone else i failed to mention above for some reason, thanks!
v2.0.17
- Fixed: Previous fix only worked while in compiling mode... turns out, my tool is just as bad as microsofts tools! it missed out on anything that isn't 100% accurate >_< it now also corrects every other aspect of the tags aswell meaning: any case of ... will now be lowercased properly... but this only occurs if you etheir load and save the translation or compile your translation...
v2.0.16
- Fixed: If you for any reason decided to manually edit the data and you ended up with ... this will now be corrected for you during compilation to be the correct format: ... It's a critical thing because microsoft's tools are case-sensitive, why? because they didn't think anyone would actually do manual edits to resx files...
