I see that xbmc/translations project includes a tool - txupdate - to get the latest translations from Transifex, Am i right in thinking this can only be used by the transifex project managers to get the latest translations? (My attempts to use it have been less than successful!)
It's been a while since the add-ons translations were updated and, knowing that real life is far more important than Kodi, I'd ideally like to grab the latest translations myself without pestering for an update to be done before I request a script update on the repo. Thanks
Just to let you know that I completely agree that it would be extremely useful to be able to grab the translations ourselves from Transifex.
Sure, although that takes a bit of time with 78 languages
Indeed. I wish I had that problem. Mine has only been translated 100% to six other languages.
So I looked into this more out of curiosity.
If you go here:
https://github.com/xbmc/translations, you can see all of the translations since last sync. I did not find any easy way of just downloading just my add-on's directory. If you have svn installed, you might try using this method:

So, I just downloaded the whole master as a zip which was about 84 MB and just took what I needed out from it.
Hope this helps.
At the time the OP was made, the translations at github.com/xbmc/translations (which I believe are the same translations that the language download tool grabs) hadn't been updated in a fair few weeks. Being able to download the languages one at a time is useful though, many thanks
ok so i'm finishing translation of my language (croatian) and i want to manually apply update to my kodi install to see it all is ok and translate all strings that are missing but i'm not sure how to download language from transifex:
i have installed ubuntu 16.04.1 in VM and run command sudo apt-get install build-essential curl libcurl4-gnutls-dev libjsoncpp0 libjsoncpp-dev git vim i needed to add libjsoncpp0 from another repo
after that i have run command git clone
https://github.com/xbmc/translations and after that i have cd to kodi-txupdate directory but when i run command make i get
