It is possible to download translation files from Transifex so you can work with an external editor or test your translations in-game.
+For in-game testing, it is recommended to use a fresh Xonotic [autobuild](https://gitlab.com/xonotic/xonotic/-/wikis/Autobuilds) or [git build](https://gitlab.com/xonotic/xonotic/-/wikis/Repository_Access), because new strings are added or modified during the development process.

On Transifex, select the `common.pot` resource:
* Select **"Download for use"** if you wish to test the translation in-game.
* Select **"Download file to translate"** if you wish to edit the PO file with an external tool (such as [poedit](https://poedit.net/))
* Select **"Upload file"** if you wish to upload a PO file that you edited on your computer.
-In order to test your translation in-game, rename the PO file as `common.*.po`, where `*` is your language code ("fr" for French, "de" for German...).

If you don't know what your language code is, please have a look at the PO files located in the [xonotic-data.pk3dir](https://gitlab.com/xonotic/xonotic-data.pk3dir) repository.
-Then copy the PO file in the `data` subdirectory of your **Xonotic user directory**. The user directory location depends on your Operating System: https://xonotic.org/faq/#where-are-the-configuration-files-located
