Hi everyone,
I'm struggling with the CoS campaign for D&D 5E and it becomes quite complicated without deep knowledge of the language. Since it doesn't seem to me that the parent company has the intention of providing translations on the program, basic manuals and accessories, I was wondering if there is a way today or if some good soul has created the translations in this time.
Thanks a lot

The LPak projects are the best you'll likely get. https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?27202-LanguagePak-(LPak)-Community-Project-Program/

SmiteWorks, which owns Fantasy Grounds, does not support translations. I do not know if their license to convert D&D includes language translations, and FG itself is not architected for localization (you still need English text so automation works, though with many things you can add a translation after). As mentioned by Nylafs, the LPAK project is as close as you can get.
WotC itself only has some languages that it translates too and has had issues in the past with some translations companies and I'm not sure which products have been converted to which languages. You also don't mention what language you are looking for a translation to.
Finally, I'm pretty sure the text of CoS and everything else D&D is copyrighted no matter what language it is in, so it wouldn't be able to be shared if their was a translation.
Best you can probably do is see if WotC has a language translation available in the language you need, and see about buying a copy of it :( so that you can then get the deep understanding you need to be able to run it in FG in English.

You are right. I was searching for Italian one. I also own the corebooks on paper, even CoS in my language but was hoping i could read that directly on FG. I searched in that thread about LPAK but don't understand how that works :/
