More utility for RMMV & RMMZ
On the ribbon menu there are new menus that really help the translation process.
We also have several new utilities under the Tools menu.
This utility provide us a GUI interface to extract enigma boxed games. Also not to mention the invaluable resources descriptor, in case you need them to translate resources (images, audios and videos)
RMMV & RMMZ engine : ability to translate plugins & plugin parameters.
Previously, many complained because even though all the strings in the RPG Maker scenario had been translated, there were still untranslated text in the game. For example, menu contents, HUD, text on quests and so on. That's because there is a high chance that the text is actually part of the plugin parameters or a string inside the plugins … which is javascript files.
The plugin's parameter on the RPG Maker MV editor.
I don't really recommend translating text in javascript with machine translator, or rather I don't recommend translating plugins at all. But experienced translators may need this feature to quickly fetch translatable texts in the plugins instead of searching for them manually in the RPG Maker editor.
By default when you start a Translator++ project, javascript files will not load into the grid. However, you can load the javascript files any time by pressing the "Load Plugins Into Project" button.
Once you clicked the button, the necessary javascript files will be loaded into the grid as follows:
Plugin strings and parameters are translatable now.
Behavior change on KAGParser
In the previous version, KAGParser will automatically rename the xp3 file to bak after extracting it with the hope that people will not be confused because after injection the game remains in the original language because it still reads the data.xp3 file. But this has proven to cause confusion for some. So the latest version of Translator ++ will not change the xp3 file. Users need to rename by themself if needed. Because scenario files are not inside data.xp3 in some cases.
It looks like the scenario script is read according to priority as follows:
- data.xp3
- If data.xp3 doesn’t exist, read data folder
- patch.xp3 will be loaded when exist, overwriting previously loades scenarios or resources
- when patch.xp3 is exist ... patch2.xp3, patch3.xp3 …are also will be loaded if any.
The latest version of Translator++ has a tool to pack a folder into xp3. So you can repack the translated scenario back to xp3. Or you can create a patch.xp3 file that contains the translated scenarios (and even resources such as translated images), so that the original data.xp3 file will remain untouched.
The tool itself is pretty straight forward and self-explanatory.
You can update your Translator++ by using auto-update.
Cheers.
