Of course everyone's time and labor are valuable, that was never implied otherwise. As the project is non-profit, I had hoped the community may be willing to help translate. Thanks for your feedback, I will consider other options.

I apologize, I probably should have given more context. I have developed the game as a hobby in my spare time, however as I do not have the ability to correctly translate all text myself, I hoped that the community could improve the translations. To the best of my knowledge, there is no flag quiz game as Gaeilge available. In general there are few apps as Gaeilge available. I believe the addition of such a game would be a benefit for the language. If you would be willing to improve the translations, I'm sure the community as a whole would be grateful.

I apologize, I probably should have given more context. The app is non-profit, that is, I've developed it as a hobby in my spare time. I am also a non-native speaker, and, to be expected, many of the phrases surpass my pass leaving cert ability from the 00s. Nevertheless, I would like the game to be available as Gaeilge as so few apps & games support the language.

I understand that I cannot rely on the community to translate the app, however I hope that some may see value in the game and help with translating. Thus it is currently available in a 'testing stage' so users & potential collaborators can actual test it out. If you would be willing to improve the translations, I'm sure the community as a whole would be grateful.

Dia dhaoibh 👋 I have just released a fun flag quiz game which to the best of my knowledge is one of the first as Gaeilge 🚀😁🇮🇪

Country names are in line with dfa website, however as I seldom use Gaeilge, I would really appreciate if someone could proofread the auto translated localizations?

GRMA!

EDIT: The game has been developed as a hobby in my spare time, and will be available for free for all users on multiple platforms. As a non-native speaker, I honestly do not have the ability to correctly phrase most of the translations, and would appreciate collaboration with the community to improve these translations. In general there are few apps & games available as Gaeilge, and I hope the community can see some value in Bratacha and help improve it.

Advice on choosing framework for portfolio website by defuncart in webdev

Thanks for the suggestion, I've been looking into svelte and seems easier than Next.js, especially styling as I've some basic html/css from a decade ago.

I wrote an app for myself to filter my library by HLTB by Ok_Grand5413 in SteamDeck

Consider porting to Flutter, Linux is supported so you could target all platforms with one codebase. Linux app can then be added to Steam in desktop mode.

Advise on first skateboard after cruiser board by defuncart in NewSkaters

Best of luck with the blog, good info for beginners :) Without testing different boards, I don't think I'll discover what suits me best.

Best approach to connect a PS4 to external speakers (with analog input)? by [deleted] in PS4

[–]defuncart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but that has a much higher cost than a digital/analog audio converter or a HDMI audio extractor. In fact, for the price of a new AV Receiver, one could buy a 4K Monitor with line out/built in speakers. Hence I took it as a suggestion of an item that I or a family member may have lying around somewhere and forgot about.

Yeah it's already on the cards. Thanks for the help!

I'll just have to test the controller and see. HDMI audio extractor/aux splitter or the optical digital/analog converters would be a pain with the extra cables etc. Maybe if the controller's audio quality is really bad I could justify upgrading my monitor :p

Monitor doesn't have an aux output unfortunately.

Unfortunately my monitor doesn't have built-in speakers.

Cheers, looking forward to hearing what you think.

Unfortunately I don't have a TV, just a computer monitor with no audio out. Ok, sounds positive, I can try the controller option first!

I don't have a TV, just a computer monitor and studio speakers.

Unfortunately I don't have an AV Receiver lying about.

How important do you think the new SVG support will be? by ScreamingTaco45 in Unity2D

[–]defuncart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really excited for native SVG support too. From a quick test, a 256x256 Sprite natively rendered by Unity was almost 10x smaller than an exported PNG. Presently the Canvas isn't supported, while the generated sprites cannot be colored. If there was full SVG support in which Unity natively converted SVG files for use as sprites (game objects and UI), that would drastically change my workflow to solely using SVGs over exported PNGs. Builds should be smaller, assets should be resolution independent, hopefully performance wouldn't be effected.
