To create a new translation:
1. Clone the repository in the same way as described in the main README (submodules/recursive clone if on Windows).
2. Edit the file named `update_translations.bat` in `src\duckstation-qt` by copying/pasting one of the existing lines, and changing the language code at the end. You can find a list of codes here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes (use the 639-1 code). If your language has different variants for multiple countries, you can append the country code after a hyphen, otherwise omit the second part.
2. Edit the file named `update_translations.bat` in `src\duckstation-qt` by copying/pasting one of the existing lines, and changing the language code at the end. You can find a list of language codes here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes (use the 639-1 code). If your language has different variants for multiple countries, append a two-letter country code at the end after an underscore. You can find a list of country codes here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_3166_country_codes (use the 3166-1 Alpha-2 code). The file name should follow the `appname_language[_country].ts` convention specified [here](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/linguist-translators.html#changing-the-target-locale).
3. Run this batch file by double-clicking it. If you're on Linux, this won't work, so you should run `cd src/duckstation-qt` and `lupdate ./ -ts translations/duckstation-qt_LANGUAGE_CODE_HERE.ts` manually instead.
4. This should create a new `.ts` file for your language in the `translations` directory.
5. Open this new translation file in Qt Linguist. If you're on Linux, your package manager will provide it. If you're on Windows, a copy can be found in `dep\msvc\qt\5.15.0\msvc2017_64\bin\linguist.exe`.
