Hello,

when I use the Nouveau driver POL doesn't give me any problem, but when I use the NVIDIA privative drivers and run POL I get a window error at launching time that I suppouse should say "PlayOnLinux can't find OpenGL 64bits libraries. You may encounter problems with your games" but it says "PlayOnLinux puede encontrar bibliotecas OpenGL 64bits. Podría encontrar problemas con sus juegos" which translated to english means "PlayOnLinux can find OpenGL 64bits libraries. You may encounter problems with your games" EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE and with no sense.


So that message in Spanish is saying the opposite of what is meant by the message in English. The message is wrong with the 32bits libraries too.

Hi,
Thanks for the report, I created an entry in the bug tracker: http://www.playonmac.com/en/issue-1832.html;
Next time please report translation issues there directly, there's a section just for translation issues: http://www.playonmac.com/en/tracker-3.html
Or, if you want to get even more involved in translation fixes, the translation is handled thru Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/playonlinux

I'm sorry, I searched for translations instead of localisation and I didn't find anything, so I had to report it here. Now I know where to report translation issues, thank you.
About getting more involved in transaltion fixes I'm not used to launchpad neither other tools like that and I'm sorry but I haven't got too much time for that. Nevertheless I will report any mistake I may find in order to help.
Bye!

Fair enough :)

(and such task is called localisation rather than translation in the computing field because there can be more to it than just translating sentences; Like, what currency must be used, what timezone, what calendar, how should numbers be represented, etc, etc.)
