I`m checking how´s everything at the spanish translation.

There are some words still in english (you said that it was expectable for the first days)...

But I saw a word in spanish that was bad translated.

Regarding to players abilities, the word "Driving" was translated to spanish as "Conducción".

That word is a literally traduction of the word, but in basketball no one use that word in order to describe that action or ability. The word most used in Latin-America, even in Spain I think, it´s "Penetración" (Penetration obviusly) for describing "Driving". The word "Conducción" in spanish means "Handling" in english...or Driving in the sense of using a Car or a vehicle.

Hope you can fix that because it will lead to lots of question and confusiion.

Despite that, very good work that the translation was finished before S3.

I'm happy to have a Spanish (sudamericano) or something similar - I thought that we should start with some sort of Spanish translation to copy over first, because that saves a lot of time. As soon as this one is completed, we can start a second Spanish translation if some of you are interested in helping to translate. BB-Mark is the person to contact on that.


I think I can translate an South-American Spanish version pretty fast. So I pm Mark to start doing this?....
I won´t mind doing a "from scratch" translation.

The rules in this spanish contain two entire sections in english (and it happens to be "Tactics" and "Player Skills"...two critical parts of the rules in my opinion).

Which thing slow down translations? The human work of translating or the "software related" update of the original language that the BB´s work on?.

One suggestion I thought also was, the news section when you log-in is in english, maybe we need some guy who translate every news.

Cheers!
