FalmerBane Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Why is it that I have to wade through 30 newly translated into another language old mods to find new content... :wallbash: My apologies in advance if this isn't the right forum.

tetradite Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) Second complaint I've seen about this today. :confused: It's a personal inconvenience for sure but I kinda think it's a good thing myself. I certainly wouldn't turn down an offer of translation on my own work, so I can't complain if other mods get translated :thumbsup: Edited August 29, 2012 by tetradite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I used to let translators translate my mods until I found one of mine on the Workshop uploaded as one of the translators so that was stopped and the thief was drawn and quartered... :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you've stopped are the people who'd do a legitimate translation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just one less thing to worry about for me and honestly most of my friends in the EU speak, write and read English with great competency if not fluently.

Georgiegril Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) I agree. Plus I suspect having mods translated help those withoother primary languages than english so that they don't have to try to post a question using goodle translator or whatnot, and then try to make sense of a slang and abbreviation filled answer. The other thread mentioned that you can use tags to filter out other languages, if it really bugs. The way that the search has been working for me lately, there have been a few times that the only way I found the English mod was to click on the link from the translated mod, so I too am glad they are there.... I was agreeing with tetradite. @FalmerBane: Mods are out your hand as soon as you post them, anyone who downloads them can choose to disrespect your wishes, regardless of their language.

FalmerBane Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 Back on topic... Thirty mods in a little over 24 hours is spamming TO ME and its a little much IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darios81 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Choosing a language for the mainpage would be nice, cuz Im not interested in russian translations, for example. They should only show up for russian speaking people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caladyiel Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Yeah its rather annoying. What about an option to 'not show translations" while browsing new mods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Promiser Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I think the option to not show translations would be best. While I was studying French and felt like playing Skyrim rather than my homework, I'd play in french so I wouldn't feel as bad about it. Of course my teacher would wonder why so many of my practice conversations with her involved the undead and dragons, but hey, I learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
