copy the text from the strings and jass files (wts and j). put them into a program like systran translator, or google translate. when finished, copy back into the map.

not that easy though.
there are still spell/items' tooltips to be edited.
plus those translated machine don't translate JASS directly, you got to manullay do them and it takes a lot of time( probably a few months)
and.... just give it up if I were you.

ya, from the Jass you have to copy and paste every phrase. If the map isnt too badly protected, all the tooltips and such WILL be in the strings file. The only real problem is if the translation is good enough. I tried translating a bleach map, and google or systran couldnt read about 10 pecent of it, so the words didnt make much sence sometimes.
