Translations doesn't work

OziOn · **Author**

I'm having a great deal of issues with the translations for 3rd party plugins on my server. All translations from SourceMod itself are working correctly, but it does not seem to want to read anything else. I've tried putting the translation files in sourcemod/translations/da (the language I'm using) but with no luck what so ever.
Is this a bug?
My server is TF2 on Linux with SourceMod v1.2.1.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

If the plugins are not set up to use the new structure, they should just go straight into the "translations" folder.

If there is only 1 translation file for the plugin, it's not using the new structure.

In short: Try putting them straight in the translations folder.

I've tried that too. No luck

Make sure to change maps to test it out. Translation files are only loaded once per map (even if you reload the plugin).

If this is Linux maybe there is something wrong with file permissions?

All files have the correct permissions.

The translations are not working for me either.
I tried changing maps and it still doesn't work.

The only way to make it work is by copying and replacing the EN translation files with the PT translation files.
But there is a problem with that, the "#format" keys aren't there.
So if you say "thetime" on the server for exemple, it ill give you:

"The current time is: {1}"

***EDIT***

I found what the problem was.
In the "core.cfg" file, you have to turn the "AllowClLanguageVar" to OFF.
If you don't do that, the translations won't work.
Now it is working fine for me.

It's not that translations won't work, it's that your client language (the one in Steam) is either English or doesn't match a language SourceMod knows about.

That doesn't work for me. Everything then goes in english, and the 3rd party plugins stay in english too.

I noticed this in my core.cfg file:

Quote:

* Language that multilingual enabled plugins and extensions will use to print messages.
* Only languages listed in languages.cfg are valid.
*
* The default value is "en"
*/
"ServerLang" "en"

Could this be the issue? If so, what value does "ServerLang" need to be to make it read the clients cl_language cvar?

Oh!!! So THAT is the problem!
What is your language?
For exemple, mine is PT (Portuguese).
English is EN.
Yours is....
