    Hey, @karl_jones and everyone else who works on the Localisation tools!

    Great work you're doing there, thank you!

    I have such question \ feature request: will it be possible to ask third parties to make a translation (outside Unity) and somehow pass results to us so we could integrate it easily?

    Maybe you're leveraging some standard string localization formats so there are some existing tools for it around?

    Thanks!

    Yes we plan to allow for this. We will support several localization file formats(po, xliff,XML, CSV etc) and also some other features such as pushing and pulling to a server. Still firming up how this will work at the moment but we are well aware that localisers won't always be using Unity.
