What is MOTE ?
Mangos Online Translation Editor or MOTE for short is a word based translation editor for MaNGOS, it aims to massive simplify the Adding / Editing of Translations for all the MaNGOS tables.
Why is it MOTE different to other translation projects ?
- It has been designed to be multi-core compatible, therefore sharing the translations of matching text between the cores.
- By being word based, rather than entry based, the translation of a word needs only be done once and it becomes available anywhere the English word is used.
- A simple user interface makes changing text very easy.
