rpgmtranslate

README на русском

General

A fast and light graphical interface, designed for editing and translating games based on RPG Maker XP/VX/VX Ace/MV/MZ engines.

Under the hood, this GUI uses:

• rvpacker-txt-rs-lib to parse text from RPG Maker files and apply the translation.
• marshal-rs to parse RPG Maker XP/VX/VX Ace files to JSON.
• rpgm-archive-decrypter-lib to decrypt .rgss RPG Maker XP/VX/VX Ace archives.

Using these tools, the program parses the text to .txt files, allows you to edit them, and then write them back to the original form with translation applied.

If you have troubled figuring out the program, check the Help > Help top menu option. That will probably help.
