Translation Support/Creation - How to Edit .locale Files?

[agosteve]

Hi Guyz!
I'm just starting to prepare for develop the Italian Translation of Cities:Skylines,
In italy the game is a lot requested and ALL the people want the Italian Language in the Game.
In the past days i've translated all the User Guide in Italian, but now it's time to Translate the game...

I've found the Language files in the Locale Folder of the game... and i've found the Language file (en.locale, ecc...)
I've tried to copy one of the file... renaming in it.locale and the game recognize a new language but the same that i've copied before... so i find 2 English Languages..

But i've tried to edit the file en.locale that i've copied but i can't find a software that can edit that! It's not a an XML, not a TXT, nothing...

Can someone help me to edit this type of file??

Thanks!

There is a "Locale.bat" available in the "Tools" folder which maybe can be used to compile own Locale-Files. Unfortunately, I have no idea how the source file should look like and where to put it...
