Uploading your updated Translation file to the Steam Workshop
If you have not previously uploaded your Translation file to the Steam Workshop, refer to Uploading Translation Files.
If you have previously uploaded your Translation file to the Steam workshop, follow the steps below:
- Launch HellSign.
- Go to the Local Translations window and select “Workshop Upload” (figure 6).

- Copy the root path for the folder you created when you originally uploaded the Translation file to the Steam Workshop, and paste it into the “Enter Mod Folder” window, then click “Continue” (figure 7). (note, you should see a file in the root called 'WorkshopItemInfo.xml')

- The Title and Description will automatically populate, but you can change them if you like. When you are ready, click “Upload” (figure 8).

Note, assuming the upload was successful, it may take some time for your new item to appear in the workshop, so be patient.
