With thue current build, VDrift won't start with gd or de as a language choice on Windows 7. All I get is a white window. The last build is working, so it must be something you changed since then that's causing it.
I am also adding an updated translation.
Now for the screenshots. First, screenshots of missing translations/translation errors.
Options / Graphics: English strings
Updates: connecting/downloading are in English:
Updates / Cars: it says "update track" instead of "update car" (fetching wrong string)
The latest build will work if you start it a second time. It will overwrite settings with failsafe defaults after a crash(white screen/window). I'll look into this issue.
The really long label strings (over 26 chars) are an issue, will break gui layout. I need to think about this. We maybe have to simplify them or use a more compact font.
The loading screen is extra code too, needs special treatment as with HUD. Should also be implemented as gui page.
Correction, any other language than en will cause vdrift to hang at start. Will fix and upload new build asap.
Thanks for the new build! The failsafe overwrites your language choice, so I couldn't test the new HUD with the broken build. It is working now and I have tweaked my translation to use the maximum space available
If the GUI layout can't be adjusted for the long strings, let me know and I will try to find a way to make them shorter.
I have shortened the strings, but I still have a problem with the inputs screen. Gaelic needs more space than English and there's nothing I can do about it.

Thanks GunChleoc. I've been testing a few different fonts. I think it is fixable.
is there an updated version of the vdrift.pot somewhere? I noticed that after the GUI updates, the translation (at least the pt_BR) got messed up, with some strings untranslated and others swapped, but as the vdrift.pot in http://vdrift.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc.../languages is still not updated, I can't fix the translation.
Thanks for updating NaN! Now I've updated my translation too (file attached).
I found one strange thing while testing:
in the "record session" option in "Race", if the mouse is in the right of the value, one wrong description is displayed (about number of laps), and when it's on the left, the correct description is displayed. This happens both in English and Portuguese.
