In order to provide internationalization for the PacksPanel, so that your users can be presented with a different name and description for each language you support, you have to create a file named packsLang.xml_xyz where xyz is the ISO3 code of the language in lowercase. Please be aware that case is significant. This file has to be inserted in the resources section of `` install.xml`` with xml with the id and src attributes set at to the name of the file. The format of these files is identical with to the distribution langpack files located at `` $IZPACK_HOME/bin/langpacks/installer``installer. For the name of the panel you just use the pack id as the txt part of text id. For the description you use the pack id suffixed with .description.
