Pokéheim Translation

Help translate Pokéheim into your language!

These instructions assume you are least familiar with git.

Contributing translations

  1. Fork the repository: https://github.com/joeyparrish/pokeheim/fork

  2. Find the folder for your language, or add a new one: https://github.com/joeyparrish/pokeheim/blob/main/Pokeheim/Assets/Translations/

  3. Check the status of missing translations with this tool:

    ./scripts/missing-translations.py

    Or see results for a single language with something like:

    ./scripts/missing-translations.py German

  4. Edit/add JSON files in your folder using the English version as a template: https://github.com/joeyparrish/pokeheim/blob/main/Pokeheim/Assets/Translations/English/

  5. Add yourself to the list of Translators in Pokeheim/Credits.cs: https://github.com/joeyparrish/pokeheim/blob/main/Pokeheim/Credits.cs

  6. Commit those changes and send a pull request: https://github.com/joeyparrish/pokeheim/compare

Adding a new language

To add a new language, just create a folder in Pokeheim/Assets/Translations/. The name of the folder should be the language "key", which is generally the name of the language in English.

These are the language keys Valheim already knows (as of June 2022):

key language
abenaki Alnôbaôdwawôgan
bulgarian български
chinese 中文
croatian Croatian
czech Čeština
danish Dansk
dutch Nederlands
english English
estonian Estonian
finnish Suomi
french Français
georgian ქართული
german Deutsch
greek Ελληνικά
hindi हिन्दी
hungarian Magyar
icelandic íslenska
italian Italiano
japanese 日本語
korean 한국어
latvian Latviski
lithuanian Lietuvių kalba
macedonian македонски
norwegian Norsk
polish Polski
portuguese_brazilian Português (Brasil)
portuguese_european Português europeu
romanian Romanian
russian Русский
serbian Serbian
slovak Slovenčina
spanish Español
swedish Svenska
thai ไทย
turkish Türkçe
ukrainian українська

For a complete and up-to-date list, search for language_ in https://valheim-modding.github.io/Jotunn/data/localization/translations/English.html

To add a language that Valheim doesn't know yet, you need to define a localization for name of the language itself (in the English folder). The key would be language_ plus the name of the folder in lowercase. The value would be the name of the language in that language itself.

For example, if you add a folder called Pig_Latin, you would create a translation in English/language.json with something like:

{
  "language_pig_latin": "Igpay Atinlay"
}
