Title: PoEdit on Windows 7
Post by: Erkronos on March 04, 2010, 12:01:32 pm

I want to translate this game into Turkish. I downloaded PoEdit but it doesn't save it when I want to. Or it does save with all translation being deleted. Is there a way we can translate it through Excel format?

Loads of errors. It shows up from the startup as soon as I open the file. When I save it, errors occur again.

I`ve used Poedit with W7 and found no problems. At all.

Also, how exactly do you try to work? Please, describe your process step-by-step, because there is no Turkish language in game yet.

Well here is step-by-step:
- downloaded PoEdit
- installed successfully
- opened the software
- an error message popped up as soon as I opened a PoEdit file
- the translated words gets deleted when I save it

and this is my story :D

Please update it! I love translating! I have this problem since last spring. I thought that this bug happens due to the Windows 7 RC because of the compatibility problems. Thanks again!
