How to use the localized EmulationStation

Resolve dependencies of libraries

sudo apt-get install -y libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-date-time-dev libboost-locale-dev libfreeimage-dev libfreetype6-dev libeigen3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libasound2-dev cmake libsdl2-dev

Create a clone from GitHub

git clone --recursive https://github.com/flyinghead/EmulationStation.git

Compile EmulationStation

cd /home/pi/EmulationStation
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Run EmulationStation

Be aware that your system must be set to the same locale that you want EmulationStation to run on.

cd /home/pi/EmulationStation
LANG=[your_locale].UTF8 ./emulationstation

Install EmulationStation

cd /home/pi/EmulationStation
sudo cp ./emulationstation /opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation/
sudo cp -r locale /opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation/

How to add a translation

You should have, at least, created a clone from GitHub before continuing with the following steps.

Create files for the new locale

cd /home/pi/EmulationStation/locale
mkdir lang/[your_locale]
cp emulationstation2.pot lang/[your_locale]/emulationstation2.po

Translate the strings

Open the newly created emulationstation2.po inside [your_locale] folder and start translating all the msgstr strings.

Once you are done, you can compile EmulationStation and then run it to test your translations.
