Language files are pretty straight forward to make, and they can be [[Uploading to the workshop|uploaded to the workshop]].

== Creating your language file ==
You should start from the <code>english.lang</code> file from the <code>res/language</code> folder in your game directory. Copy this file and paste it in the same folder, giving it a different name, such as <code>dutch.lang</code>.

== Giving your language a name ==
At the very top of your language file, you can add a <code>name</code> attribute, like this:

<pre><lang name="Nederlands"></pre>

This will then show up in the game when selecting a language. If you don't provide this name, it will use the filename of the language for the display name.

== String parameters ==
Strings can have parameters, which are filled in by the game. Parameters are written within percentage characters, and are not directly translated as they are required for the game to properly put values in the string.

For example, in the below string, <code>%name%</code> will automatically be replaced with the character name, <code>%title%</code> with the character's title, etc.

<pre><string name="hud.character.title">%name% the %title%, a level %lvl% %class%</string></pre>

== Uploading to the Steam Workshop ==
See [[Uploading to the workshop]] on how to upload your language file to the Steam Workshop.
