-      * Normally you can set the properties from the [JavaOptions] section of the configuration file (MapTool.cfg) also during the call of the JVM
+      * Use the section [JavaOptions] in MapTool.cfg to change JVM parameters.
-      * You can see the normal, not usable prefix in the MapTool.cfg file, e.g. -DMAPTOOL_DATADIR="data directory"
-      * MapTool use a launcher to start the JVM so there should be a prefix you have to set before the JVM option
-      * This location should only be used if the application has problems to experiment with different setups.

+Quote from MapTools Discord: \\ //MapTool UI translations are crowd sourced on [[https://crowdin.com/project/maptoo|Crowdin]]. If the language you'd like to help with is not listed, ask in [[https://discord.com/channels/296230822262865920/634664267190108171|Discord MapTool#internationalisation-and-localisation]] and the dev team will set it up. \\
+If it is, create an account and join the effort. Requests to join the translation team will be reviewed at the project manager(s) earliest opportunity.//
