NOTICE: I am looking for a Chinese translator
🕑 Added 2022-06-19 22:16:26 +0000 UTCHi, patrons!
Last month I told you that I would be supporting a new language. Please refer to the previous post for details.

And we voted on it. Below are the voting results.

Therefore, I plan to start working on a Chinese translation this month. However, since it is the first attempt to support a new language, there may be trial and error. Nevertheless, if possible, I'll try to include a Chinese version of this month's rewards, but please understand if it's delayed to next month.
I don't read Chinese at all, so if I get feedback that the quality of the translation is not good, I will be able to replace the Chinese translator immediately.
I'll first look for a Chinese translator among my Patrons and Fanbox supporters, and if no one can help, I'll look for him on Twitter, Slushe, or pixiv fans.
Here's what I want my Chinese translator to be:
- Native Chinese (or equivalent)
- Fluency in English
- Those who must be able to use Discord and Google Docs
- Those who have enough time for 2-3 days at the end of each month
- Please note that translation work, like proofreading, will not help you enjoy my work
I will collaborate with a Chinese translator and English proofreader through Discord and Google docs. I already know that Google and Discord are restricted in China. But for co-works, this is essential.
I will try to provide images and text together for smooth translating; Sometimes, a translator will have to translate with only English text.
Please send me a Patreon message by this Friday.
When sending a message, I would appreciate it if you could briefly introduce me to your Chinese writing or proofreading experience.
As with an English proofreader, I will give a few benefits to a Chinese translator.
Finally, I have something to say to those concerned that adding a new language will affect my work.
As I have mentioned several times, adding a new language will not hinder my creation. However, I will withdraw from making the new language edition if I feel it.
Supporting new languages will help me have more patrons. Moreover, it will allow me to make 3DX a little more stable for a long time. Therefore, I wish to ask for your understanding!
Thank you very much for your support!π€π

Hi, Jasper. Thanks for the suggestion. First of all, it will be essential to add a new language. I'm thinking of making a Simplified Chinese version first. Since you said translating from Simplified Chinese to Traditional Chinese is easy, the Traditional Chinese version will probably be made faster. However, adding a new language may cause some unexpected issues. Once I've experienced those issues and resolved them, it will be possible to create a Traditional Chinese and another language version. Thank you again!π€π
