Hi everyone,
I already watched some tutorials but I am unable to follow the instructions as I don't have the right file: all tutorials are using the .package file and the mods I would like to translate only have a .ts4script file, which I can't open with S4S neither S4PE. I already tried to redownload and reextract the mods, as I thought I did something wrong and maybe erased the file inadvertently, but no... So I don't know how to proceed to be able to translate the mod. Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance! |

Thanks in advance! You'll end up with a .pyc file but I don't know how to open that. |

Yes, thanks for your help! It also works when you rename the end of the file .ts4script by .zip and then unzip the folder. But I still can't open .pyc in S4S neither S4PE.
I did some research and found that .pyc files should actually be unzipped to become a .py file in order to be able to be opened by Python. But it has to do with coding. I tried to follow the instructions but I definitely do not understand anything (which is not a surprise as I know nothing about coding and Python and it is obviously not something you just can dive into spontaneously like that). And from what I read, it would anyway not help me that much if I succeded unzip it, as a .py file is too difficult to deal with for a neophyte...
PS: I tried looking at the Spanish translation that is available for one of the mod to see if it could help me in any kind of way but I can't open it: I'm redirected on a strange website and can't find the translation. I don't know if the link is obsolete or if the problem is just me?

I don't know if the link is obsolete or if the problem is just me? Yeah, I don't know the first thing about coding either. :( What is it that you're trying to translate again? Is it in-game text like what's in this image?  For that, you can just edit the string file in the package for the wings. For the mod, the one that contains the ts4script file, there's a package file called SP_FvW_STRINGS.package that holds a number of commands. It would be an XML edit for that. There are tutorials on this site about changing in-game text like what's in that image. The .pyc file would need to be decompiled, which unpacks the file, if I understand correctly. Then it would need to be recompiled again. You can try asking the mod author for the Spanish translation (If you need it) as yes, that page is down. I tried Wayback Machine but the site has not been cached. You could offer to do the translation for him. Just ask for the files you'd need, make the edits, and then give them back when you're done so he can recompile everything again. If you want the mod translated than likely others will, as well, so maybe he'd be cool with having his mod translated. You can try messaging him on Patreon. And He has a Tumblr account here. Also, he mentions getting help from Mizoreyukii who sometimes posts here. Her page is here and on that page she lists other sites she's on such as Discord. Her Patreon is here. Maybe you can reach out to her and see if she can help? She's really good with all this nerdy technical stuff.  |
