Sim-ship all language versions earlier - Don't wait for localized versions

Traditionally localization is carried out towards the end of the project during the post-production phase. LocDirect's advanced version control system makes it possible to start translation earlier (as soon as the string is defined by the developer). By starting translations earlier it is possible to optimize the development process and shorten the time-to-market period.

By performing translation of in-game strings in parallel with development the localized assets will be up to date with the source language version. Why delay the game release as a result of waiting for localized versions to catch up? It's been written, why not localize it? Localizing your game in parallel with development also means that you can release fully localize tradeshow demos and beta test releases.

Receive translations direct from professional translators - cut out translation delivery delays
Localize Direct allows direct request and then receipt of translations from the people doing the translating through the LocDirect system. Why depend on a human chain physically moving assets around when you can get them direct? Why have localization QA send text bugs to the development team rather than just correcting the faulty text themselves - being able to instantly see the change?

Localization doesn't need to be painful - reduce resource, time, cost and complexity
Using Localize Direct and performing localization in parallel with development will streamline workload, avoid seasonal busy periods and shorten the total time-to-market period. Why wait until the end? Distribute localization work throughout the development cycle.

Localize Direct supports localization in parallel with development as well as supporting the traditional method of localizing in batches towards the end of the project. Our system allows for instant and seamless integration of translated strings straight into the game. By localizing games in parallel with development one of the major obstacles to simultaneous shipment is removed.
