Indeed, there is no german translation in Metagolf. This is simply because I can't speak german.

Metagolf is localized and it's easy to add new language.
To do so, I'm using a in-house tool called BLFBuilder 2 you can grab it there if you want : http://arm42.com/downloads/various/metagolf/BLFBuilder2.zip

Thanks to this tool you will be able to load the languages.blf file available inside the "data\languages\" folder of Metagolf.
To add a new language (de - German) you simply need to click once the right Add button from the Language interface (a selection menu should appear).

BLF format is basically an XML file. Translating text is just a matter of filling each tags for the newly created language. If there is one advice to give is trying to stay as short as possible (no larger than french for example) in order to see the whole text in the interface (this sometimes require to cut words).

I must warn you : it won't be an easy task since there is a huge amount of tags but also the complete Help Guide to learn how to use the level editor.

Initially I planned to wrote that help guide like an HTML context with images and structured text but unfortunately the version of the library I'm using for the Interface (called Cegui) never receive the update to do so :-(

Now each test level (like for example the tutorial level) is stored inside the entities.xml of the concerned level under the maps folder. No interface exist in the level editor to support more languages yet but if someone send me the translation of each paragraph I will plug this myself (or else this level editor feature will be available in the next update :).

If your friends on your community is willing to help me to translate Metagolf into German I would gladly make it officially available as soon as it is done :-)

Ich würde sagen, einer Übersetzung ins Deutsche wären damit die Wege frei gemacht.
Wie wir das Ganze organisieren, muss ich mir noch überlegen (vielleicht gibt ein alter Hase Tipps?)

Wir haben uns dazu entschlossen, etherpad als gemeinsamen Texteditor zu nutzen.
Jeder ist herzlich eingeladen, mitzumachen.
Den Link gibt es per Anfrage an mich oder Javafant und im IRC.
