Hey, are there any plans to localize CastYeller? I like this add-on, it's simple and does what it should do. If I can help with German translation in any way, let me know.
If you provide the german strings, I include them. Just ensure they to use UTF-8 encoding and attach the resulting file (pasting them into a forum post won't work).
For some reason I can not get it to work with a Warlock summon or Ritual of souls. I have tired a few things from customizing my own to taking out bigwigs bossblocker (saw this is a thread somewhere).
No problem. Here are the German translations. If I find the time, I try to translate the funny announces as well.
Thanks. It will be included in next commit (once the SVN server goes back).

Bossblocker shouldn't be a problem, I've chosen a string prefix that shouln't be blocked. Remember that CY doesn't announce if you're not in a group. You can add "start = true, miss = true, failure = true" in ritual "events" to see if CY is missing one or more casting events.
Which file do I edit to enter my own messages? I am kinda new to .lua but am learning quite a bit. Also, are there no funny announces for locks?
Thanks in advance..
Also I did try in in a party and raid and nothing. I will change the events and see if that works.
one more thing... is there a way to add the use of a soulstone to this.. Like I SS the priest it can say I SS the priest?
I used to use necrosis but grew tired of its size and lack of updates. I have since switched to Sphere and CastYeller. Thats why I have come here to ask for things :D
What would I have to add for it to announce something for soulstones? Also I am working on some funny announces for locks. I will post them when I feel they are good enough to post.. and after I test them also.
I added some announces yet I can't find the option to turn them on in-game. Do I have to add something special to show that option for the lock? I see it on my priest but not the lock.
This is what I have so far... No clue what they look like in game though.. I hope to do more.. once I think of them and work with some locks in my guild for some ideas. Thanks

Basically, you omitted to add the locale object (L) to return values :
local L = AceLibrary("AceLocale-2.2"):new("CastYeller-Warlock")
L:RegisterTranslations("enUS", function() return {
...
} end)
return {
...
}, L
Then the target placeholder is "$TARGET" instead of "<target>". Lots of people seem to like "<$TARGET>" but the brackets are just decorative.
Committing them, thanks.
There was a wiki page few month ago, but it has been eaten by the server crash and I'm too lazy to revrite a new one.
Ah cool thanks. Like I said I don't know too much about this stuff.. Just learning.
I will be getting together with some locks in my guild to come up with some more at least for Ritual of Souls and Ritual of Summoning. I will post them when i get them. Thanks again.

Doesn't work for my lock either. Could it be because the rituals don't have a start = true option? Can't test since it's maintenance time.

Err... sorry. Was a bit away :p
Actually CastYeller is already localized in french, korean and chinese. You can take a look at the french localization strings : http://www.wowace.com/trac/browser/trunk/CastYeller/CastYeller.lua?order=name#L47

Locks announces are in the file "announces\warlock.lua" (from CY root, e.g. <your wow installation>\Interface\AddOns\CastYeller\announces\warlock.lua)
Not yet.
It is just a matter of adding it.
BTW, I didn't do much for warlocks because there is already a lots of dedicated addons.

Also thanks for the quick reply.
Er... there isn't any funny announce for warlock at this time. ;)
I would add some if anyone would like to contribute.
Oh... just post them here (in an attachment to keep the encoding), I'll include them in a future release.
