I'm technically 3/4 Chinese by blood. So yay. XD

I don't really understand much of the language.
Good job though.

Wow thank's a bunch! I wish I knew more Chinese. Maybe we can make these available somewhere where they are a little more visible. Would that be ok with you ?

This is really great! Thanks for doing this. I've implemented localization for the site, you can click the Chinese or English link in the upper right to change the site language. It auto detects if you've never chosen. It would be nice to know, does the auto detection work for Chinese? I've ported your text to the menus and these pages:

http://esotericsoftware.com/spine-in-depth
http://esotericsoftware.com/spine-purchase
http://esotericsoftware.com/spine-documentation
http://esotericsoftware.com/spine-quickstart

Of course you'll need to switch to Chinese to see those pages in Chinese. Does it all look correct? I put links to the English page at the bottom of in depth.

It would be great to also have the download and home pages, if you have time. For the home page, even just the first 3 paragraphs would be a great improvement.

It would also be great to have other languages. Would anyone else like to submit translated pages? The best candidates are these pages:

home (first 3 paragraphs are enough)
download
purchase (doing all the feature mouseovers is optional)
in depth
quickstart

I don't suggest spending the time to translate other pages because they are subject to change. Eg, the using Spine runtimes page is expected to change often and would be way too much work to re-translate it every time it changed.

Besides the pages, we would also need translations for this text (English on the left, translated text on the right):

Home = Home
Blog = Blog
Forum = Forum
Contact = Contact
Features = Features
Runtimes = Runtimes
Documentation = Documentation
FAQ = FAQ
TryNow = Try Now
Purchase = Purchase
BuyNow = BUY NOW
Computers = computers

Thanks for jerryjin~

Spine: 2D animation software for games

Spine is 2D animation software designed specifically for software and game development. Animators, artists and programmers unite to bring your games alive.

Editor

Videos

Tutorial videos to quickly get you started using Spine.

Trial Download

Try it now

Explore Spine firsthand by downloading the Spine trial, free for Windows, Mac and Linux. All Spine Professional features are available in the trial except saving projects, texture packing and exporting animation data, images and video.

The trial comes with many example projects which include exported JSON animation data and texture atlases. These can be used to evaluate how the <a href='/spine-in-depth#Runtimes'>Spine Runtimes</a> work with your game toolkit before purchasing.

Build and integrate animations into your games with Spine.

Designing amazing animations is only part of the problem — you also need to render those animations in your games. The Spine Runtimes are libraries that allow your game toolkit to load and render animations in your games, just as they do in Spine.

The Spine Runtimes have an API that provides direct access to bones, attachments, skins and other animation data. Bones can be manipulated procedurally, animations can be mixed, crossfaded and more.

The official runtimes are on GitHub and licensing Spine grants permission to use the runtimes in your applications. All of the source code is provided, which is essential for such a fundamental component of your games.

Supported game toolkits

Spine is under active development. We often do multiple new releases per week. You can track our progress at a granular level by keeping an eye on the changelog. For a higher level view of what we have planned on our roadmap, please see the editor Trello board and the runtime Trello board. You can vote and comment on Trello tasks, as well as subscribe to receive email when they are complete.

Not only are we constantly implementing new features, we continually improve and polish all aspects of the software. Often this is directly as a result of feedback from our users. We love hearing what works and what doesn't, so please head to the Spine forum and share your thoughts!

Sorry, I know it's a lot. With that all the most important parts of the site will be available in Chinese.

(Allow me to troll this thread to say: I understood "Spine 是什么？" And then I laughed at myself 'cause that's as far as my knowledge of Mandarin will take me right now. )

Good job！以后会有越来越多的中国游戏制作者加入Spine的行列~

Great! I've updated the Chinese site with the new translations. It's hard for me to know where you fixed any typos in the old text though. If you'd like to fix anything, maybe you can do it to the these files? This way I can more easily update the site with the changes.

Ohh! Last time I only looked in the "Translated Spine Webpage" folder. Now I found your typo fixes document and applied all the changes. If you have more changes it's easiest if you make them to the ZIP file linked above (I updated it), but you don't have redo the fixes you already did.

About the videos, Shiu had uploaded some videos to a service that was accessible in China, but it was really hard to figure out how to upload the videos and worse, the videos are large and the upload often fails and has to be restarted. jerryjin, is there a service you can recommend we use? Shiu what do you think about uploading the videos there?

Since I'll be making an entire new batch of videos once IK pinning is in I wouldn't mind uploading the videos some place else. As long as I understand what I am doing! Image buttons in chinese was just too difficult for me to figure out

Great, thanks! I'm sure Shiu will check it out.

nice guides, I'll use one of them for the new videos Thanks!

Good catch! Fixed, thanks!

I fixed "Development".

It's hard for me to know if you've made any fixes. Here is my latest Chinese text for the site:
http://pastebin.com/8U6Qap9x

This is what I have for In Depth:
http://pastebin.com/LhSQqQMs

And here is Quick Start:
http://pastebin.com/DmdnxX4h

I hesitate to localize other pages on the site, as they are much more likely to change often.

I did find this text used for the In Depth page description (visible to search engines but not on the page):

Spine breaks you free from the limits of traditional animation. Animate more efficiently and with fewer art assets required to pack your games with animation.

Here is the Quick Start description:

Quickly learn the basics of creating and animating a skeleton. Setup your skeleton's rigging, animate and refine your animations.

Could I bother you to translate those? 8)

Awesome, thanks! We really appreciate the time you've taken to do this.

Great, thank you! It's up. http://zh.esotericsoftware.com/spine-documentation

請問一下你們知道怎麼把圖片翻轉嗎
就比如我射紙飛機出去但要讓它飛回來 在不換圖的狀況下可以實現嗎
謝謝

Do you know how to ask you flip the picture
For example, I shoot paper airplanes out of it but to let it fly back in the situation does not change the graph can achieve it
Thank you

You can flip at runtime using skeleton.flipX = true; and/or skeleton.flipY = true;. We will be adding the ability to flip in the editor and key flipping, but currently it is not possible.

Done, thanks!

It is done! Maybe you could do these that we're missing?

Thank you! It's up.

I added the reference text at the bottom of every Chinese page, good idea. Did I put the "English version" link around the correct characters?

The purchase page already says, "Each named person using Spine Essential requires their own license.". I've bolded it.

It seems this text:
"Spine Education prices shown do not include the one-time, 10% enrollment fee for the first year."
Was translated as this:
"购买 Spine 教育授权，第一年免收这 10%的注册税。"
Apparently the translation says the fee should be waived? The text is trying to say that the prices shown for 5, 25, 100 computers does not include the 10% enrollment fee for the first year. The enrollment fee is not waived though. Any chance you could translate again if it doesn't match, pretty please?

Fixed both, cheers! :party:

New page: http://esotericsoftware.com/spine-skeleton-viewer
You don't have to translate of course, I just wanted to mention that before you translate any page, I would like to provide the markup for it. This way it's less work for both of us. Eg, the markup Skeleton Viewer page is this:
http://pastebin.com/p8J57Snn
If you translate that, keeping the markup, then it's very easy for me to update.
