Translations

VCMI supports translations into multiple languages. Most of our translations are provided by our community, so progress depends a lot on availability of volunteers to do the translations. If language you're interested in is lagging behind - feel free to join and start translating.

Translation of VCMI

VCMI comes with own Launcher, Map Editor, as well as some numerous game UX improvements, some of which required addition of new strings. All such texts can be translated for any language supported by VCMI. To join translation, register on Hosted Weblate that is hosted by Weblate Team, and start translating.

For usage of Weblate, please refer to Weblate documentation

Adding new languages

If you wish to translate VCMI into new language, first step is to contact VCMI Team via Discord or Github to add a new language. Once done, you should be able to select your language in VCMI Launcher in next daily build, and eventually - in next release.

In general, VCMI can support any language with left-to-right script. Languages with right-to-left script such as Arabic are currently not supported by engine and would require developers to implement support for such languages in VCMI.

If something is not clear - feel free to ask us on Discord or forum. Translation of VCMI itself made via Weblate will be automatically integrated into VCMI for next release
