Localization in Inventory engine support

Hello, I am writing to you because I have a question about localization in the inventory support of the dialogue system. I unpacked the inventory engine support as indicated on the homepage, assigned the dialogue manager prepab to the ui manager, and even made a text table, but I don't know what text table to make. I want to localize "ItemName" and "Description" in multiple languages among the items in the inventory engine, should I create a text table named "ItemName" and "Description"? I'm sorry if it's an inexperienced question. Thank you always,

Hi,
Create a text table (Assets > Create > Pixel Crushers > Common > Text Table) and name it whatever you want. Assign it to the Dialogue Manager GameObject's Display Settings > Localization Settings.
Then create two fields for each item: one that matches the item's name, and another that matches its description:

Thank you for answer! Thanks to you, I found a solution to the problem, but when I created and applied a text table, it seems that even if I change the language settings, the changed language is not applied and only the default language is displayed. Do I need to add the Localize UI component to inventory details? Unity localization package integration has already been completed.

Hi,
The Dialogue System's Inventory Engine integration does not use Unity's Localization Package.
If you have already set a language, the language value may be stored in PlayerPrefs. To reset it, click the Dialogue Manager's Localization Settings > Reset Language PlayerPrefs. Then the Dialogue System will recognize the language you have specified in Localization Settings.

Thank you, I almost solved my problem. Sorry to bother you, but I have one last question. What code should I write to change the in-game language settings by clicking a specific button in the game? I am not sure which function should be used with code such as DialogueManager.SetLanguage( "es" );, which is shown as an example on the homepage. Could you please give me a simple example? If this is a bothersome question, feel free to ignore it.

That line of code is correct. You could write a script and add it to a UI Button to call that line of code. For example:
Code: Select all
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
[RequireComponent(typeof(Button))]
public class SetLanguageButton : MonoBehaviour
{
public string languageCode; // <-- SET IN INSPECTOR
void Start()
{
GetComponent<Button>().onClick.AddListener(() => PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.DialogueManager.SetLanguage(languageCode));
}
}
Add this to a UI Button and set the Language Code field. You don't need to confgure the OnClick() UnityEvent. The script will take care of that.

I'm very sorry, but when I pasted the code you provided, the result was "Assets\Scripts\SetLanguageButton.cs(13,62): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'DialogueManager' does not exist in the namespace 'PixelCrushers' (are you missing an assembly reference?)” error occurs. I don't know much about coding, so I don't know which part to fix. I would really appreciate your help...
