Hello! I have a question about DS to I2 configuration.

This is my environment;

Dialogue System 2.2.47
I2Localizaiton 2.8.21 f2
Unity 2022.3.9f1.016527

I configured a conversation like this.

Then exported the conversation using DS to I2 with the following setting.

After export, I got 4 rows with the same term name, 'title', and different category informations

Though I can still identify each sentence with category information, I think this is a bit bizarre. If I add large amount of conversations, I will end up with hundreds or thousands of 'title' in the I2Localize.

I guess the checkboxes in DS to I2 are for exporting field value, not for field schema name. Is there any setting I am wrong with?

Or those translations will be exported back to Dialogue System anyway, so I don't have to care about term names? But then why do we have checkboxes for each field??

Please help me to use this amazing tool properly. Thank you!

Hi,

Typically you'll only need to tick the checkboxes for DialogueEntries > Dialogue Text and Menu Text, since the Title field is usually only used internally. This helps minimize the number of i2 terms to manage. You'll probably also want to tick some checkboxes in Actors and Quests, such as Display Names.

When you click "To I2", the full term it creates is something like "Dialogue System/Conversation/01/Entry/042/Title". The i2 inspector only shows the last part ("Title") at the front. But if you export it to a spreadsheet, you'll see that the column in the spreadsheet shows the entire term.

Oh now I understand how to ust it clearly. Thank you so much & have a great weekend.

Glad to help!
