Hi everyone,

I’ve managed to create a more accurate English translation and you can download
it as a pdf from here.

It’s still not perfect but it’s much better and easier to follow than the
google or babelfish translations

      thanks for the effort. But could we put this in a wiki, so that some correction can be done?

      Hmmm… I’m only getting a 30kb corrupted file at that link.

      Crawlie – The pdf is hosted on MediaFire. Don’t try to download directly from the link here. Just click to go to Mediafire and download it from there.

      Thank you Philip, that is very public-spirited of you. Much appreciated.

      Good effort but…
      I’m afraid that some of the translation is unintelligible.
      For example :”Button Panel
      Let’s go see a little matter of the right-button. That goes full of buttons. Come fast to see some results. There are, in principle, once icons. The next is enabled by default on the themes render:”

      What does it mean ?

      That is the main problem when using a translation program or web site. It doesn’t respect the meaning or the intent of the autor. Doesn’t respect the structure of the phrase.

      I don’t mean to be disrespectful but I would not “publish” without having it proof read before. I would encourage you to get someone who is fluent in english to go through the document and rewrite sections of it.

      Anyway, like I said, good effort.

      Have I got something wrong ?

      It is still very hard to read
      e.g. Navigare becomes saililng.

      I was expecting english variant to start Russian translation.

      Thenk you, Philipe!

      If someone can send the PDF to gumanoed AT gmail DOT com i can put it near BlenderBasics-rus on Sigma-server.com.

    • Snicsnac

    • http://lug.nnov.ru gumanoed

      Snicsnac, it’s mediafire hosting.

      Great job!!!!

    • Unsettlingsilence

      This translation seems to have been done in a program, not by a person who speaks Spanish. If there were a wiki people like myself could properly translate it when we get time. If this is possible please do so and post the link.

    • EagleWing

      @Unsettlingsilense: I agree the translation is REALLY bad! Not trying to bash anyone but it needs some serious work.

    • Unsettlingsilence

      I have started to properly and accurately translate this text. It is a long text so it will take some time, especially since it is a holiday season in my country. If anyone else would like to collaborate let me know.

      Greetings all,

      You might not be aware but there is also a Italian Guide by “Eugene Toppi” BLENDER 2.5 GUIDA.

      I have Google Translated it and intend to run it by the author to ask permission for putting up the Word document I’m halfway through putting together – I intend to use OpenOffice to convert to PDF if he gives the go ahead.

      The first mention of the guide is here:

      http://www.blender-tutorial.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2434&p=33875

      The original file is here:

      http://forblender.xoom.it/virgiliowizard/sites/default/files/sp_wizard//usr/manuale_ita.pdf

      Happy Xmas and New Year to you all.

    • Oni

      I made an english translation too. I tried to make it as accurate as possible. Here is the link: http://www.mediafire.com/file/yjjnj3ydzzy/guide_25.pdf

    • http://sites.google.com/site/casteleynphilippe/ filip

      Oni, thank you. It has become just readable.
      I have reached page 7.
      What tutorial can I attack after this one ?
