Hi, 

Here's my script review:

POL_SetupWindow_Init

You also need POL_Debug_Init here to enable embedded debugger support

if [ "$POL_LANG" == "ru" ]; then

  POL_SetupWindow_message "После установки Steam,\nуберите галочку с \"Запустить Steam\"\nи нажмите \"Готово\"" "$TITLE"
else
  POL_SetupWindow_message "$(eval_gettext "When Steam insall is finished,\nuncheck Run Steam\nand press Finish')" "$TITLE"
fi

That's not how gettext works, if you spot a missing or broken translation, you can fix those using https://translations.launchpad.net/playonlinux instead.

Some translations may not work because of typos too (for example insall/install here), be careful to copy the standard texts exactly.

POL_Wine start /unix "steam.exe" "steam://install/$STEAM_ID"
POL_Wine_WaitExit "$TITLE"

My standard answer, also discussed in the Wiki :

start /unix is usually unnecessary, and has a side effects (makes programs started with Wine to run asynchronously, so they aren't killed automatically if the script is aborted), so if should be avoid if possible.
Using both POL_Wine_WaitBefore and POL_Wine_WaitExit around a Wine command should never be necessary, as one is useful for programs running synchronously, and the other for programs running asynchronously. If you manage to get rid of start /unix, POL_Wine_WaitBefore may be sufficient.

## Fix for this game
# Remove gamepad's bindings because of phantom key presses
GAME_PATH=$(cd "$(dirname "$(find "$WINEPREFIX" -name "Game.exe")")/../.."; pwd -P)
sed -i "/bind gp_/d" "$GAME_PATH/data/init.cfg"
## End Fix

This part should be tested under OS X too.

For example I know that BSD's sed does not support -i, but I think PlayOnMac bundles GNU sed, so it may work nonetheless. Testing is the only way to be sure you haven't missed some subtle incompatibility.

Thanks for your review @petch

I updated the script.

About 'sed -i' for OS X. This command works fine. But I made my tests using virtual machine so game not working on it.  I don't know it is wine on Mac or 3d via virtualization problem.

 

One more question. How can I add some text message to PlayOnLinux for it can be translatable?
 

PoL/PoM client itself and scripts are periodically parsed for translation keys, so my the next day they should appear in launchpad

The message about "steam download" that present in my script is apeares in pol.pot twice. The dot is the difference. May be that should be unified?

It's always best to keep the number of different keys down, to lower the amount of work for translators (that also why it's best to use standard texts whenever possible).

Edited the script. Replaced text message found in translations.

What should I do next to make my script approwed?
I've submit latest version to https://www.playonlinux.com/en/app-2642-Pathologic_Classic_HD.html

I think Mac support should be removed from this page. This was a mistake.

And what about translations? I have made some contribution so when it will be released?

I approved the script already.

For Mac / PlayOnMac support, policy is to enable it whenever possible, since the game is not available for OS X either let's enable it unless some incompatibility is found.

About translations I'm not sure, actually I'm trying to get some confirmation that nothing stupid is going on :p

Thanks! How to get 'top' and 'left' images available in the installation wizard?
 

Right now there's no web interface for uploading those, so put them in some public place and some maintainer (probably me) will take care of uploading them on the server

 

put them in some public place

Already there -- see first post

Updated the script -- fixed quotes (my bad)

Ah yes, I missed the resources, should be good now :)

Thanks again!

And once again about 'start'

With

POL_Wine "steam.exe" "steam://install/$STEAM_ID"

I am getting error during installation about 'exited abnormally'

But when I added start to this line the installer works well without any error.

What should I do?

Maybe

POL_Wine --ignore-errors "steam.exe" "steam://install/$STEAM_ID"

That seems to work. Thanks! Updated the script.

It's always best to keep the number of different keys down, to lower the amount of work for translators (that also why it's best to use standard texts whenever possible).

Ok, so what I suspected (and feared) has been confirmed, the translations files are currently sent to the git repository, so they get bundled with the PlayOnLinux/PlayOnMac client.

So only the people using the development version get them in a timely matter, people using our repositories get them with the next release, and people using the release bundled with their distro get them a year or two later :p

There's a plan to change that, but it will probably be for POL v5 now.
