localize

String extraction for game localization is performed by scanning source code to identify and validate hardcoded text, then generating translation-ready string-table diffs. The pipeline reads source files deterministically and outputs structured tables for translator briefings.

A game localization QA pipeline checks release readiness by enforcing placeholder integrity, validating string length constraints against UI limits, verifying locale coverage, and running RTL support checks. It produces structured reports flagging violations before string freeze approval.

Translator briefs and cultural review reports are generated from validated string tables by applying cultural sensitivity analysis to extracted text. The workflow produces structured documentation highlighting context, potential cultural issues, and sensitivity concerns for each locale.

String freeze violations and placeholder integrity are managed by enforcing deterministic rules that lock source strings post-freeze and validate placeholder formatting across all locale tables. The pipeline flags any mismatches or unauthorized source changes in coverage reports.

Voice-over pipeline artifacts and RTL language support are handled within the localization workflow. The pipeline generates structured VO localization deliverables and performs RTL-specific layout checks to ensure text directionality and UI constraints are satisfied.

Keeping multilingual string tables consistent with source text is best handled by scanning source code regularly, extracting new strings, and producing diffs that highlight changes against previous locale tables. This deterministic approach ensures locales remain synchronized across pre- and post-freeze stages.
