Tool RPGM MTool: RPGMaker/WolfRPG/TyranoBuilder/SRPGStudio/Kirikiri2/SGB/Bakin/Ren'Py/PGMMV Real-time cheat + one-click machine translation tool

[zths]

I just tried this tool on an RPGMaker VX game.

While the cheat side of it can be useful even if i have other similar options, the translation side of it is completely useless as a free user. I get much better translations with simple but properly set up text hookers than the google MTL which often doesn't even make sense especially with line wrapping not working properly.

The translate costs me not only the time, It also costs money, so I have to make it behind the paywall.

You can complain about it, but i won't change it, even if it wasn't costs money, because it's all the selling point in this tool, and almost everything else in it is free.

I made this for me, for my own convenient at the start, It only suits for my requirements, like about ''someone who can code and have the ability to fix every problem they encountered''.

So you should give a thanks to those guys who paid for it and make it useful for most people, or this thing will only be useful for only the geeks, not the most one.


People should know that things 100% free either can get you mad, like Trojans in It, or not that user friendly, cause you have to learn some Tech's to get it useful, or not that powerful by only focused on a single task.
Because it's made by interest, but human have only limited time for their interest, they need to work to getting money for food, and lives.

Something wonderful and Free?
That's a trap.
Waiting for victims.

Heya zths!

How goes the word wrap mission? After reading your announcement, I decided to switch back to 'stable' releases instead of 'latest', and haven't really seen updates for that; I think. I was able to -most of the time- fix things for RPGMMV/MZ with a word wrap script I found and applied onto the game, and with kirikiri it wasn't a problem as much - as far as I could tell. I didn't want to risk the slowdown or whatever. Is it okay to switch back to 'latest'?

Also, I noticed that the game window when started with/emulated with mtool, doesn't 100% behave like an active window - I'd like to make it "always on top", yet nothing seems to be able to do that. Any hints on how I could possible achieve that, please?

Bests.

Regarding "word wrap", it does not add "word wrap" functionality to games, it adds compatibility to games that have "word wrap" functionality to prevent them from not being translated properly.
I have not received any unusual feedback about this feature, so I think this change is "successful and stable".

To explain, this "feature update" is to reduce the number of options users need to care about, some games need to have this option turned on to be translated properly, but 90% of users won't notice or care that the game needs to have this option turned on, and will just yell "so Mtool doesn't work" in places, so I rewrote the feature to try to reduce the side effects, and then turn it on for everyone.

So i recommend you to use the latest version.


Regarding the game window, I don't have a solution, I didn't tweak the game window, it is the game window itself.
I don't know what the problem is and I can't fix it.
You can try switching windows a few times.

Ahh, now I get it.
So this will make mtool see the original text as "line-wrapped", and make the TL like that also. Otherwise it would give a likely out-of-context translation, or even maybe a complete mistranslation if that original is seen rather as a continuous string of characters (e.g. in Japanese) or some other way, differently as it should. Nice. Will switch back. Thx for the clarification.

Damn, you are right. I thought it was mtool (it seemed logical to me that maybe some kinda emulation could be taking place or whatever), but it turns out that kirikiri games' windows actually CAN'T be made to stay always on top!! (or would need some major geeky approach, because the AHK scripts that literally make any other window I thus far have tried stay on top - won't work with them, even starting them vanilla, at all. lol)
...EDIT: And of course Kirikiri Z and Z 64Bit work fine and stay on top, after checking. Just my luck - and ongoing ragewar with regular kirikiri (and why does my backlog mainly have kirikiri 2 games?!. damndamn... xD)

how can i translate if the game is made on unity?

You could try this tool: https://f95zone.to/threads/bepinex-autoinstaller-v1-0-1.105441/

 

[Mentozs]

I really like the tool "sometimes" but wth are there so many updates? Sometimes I need to update the tool several times a day -.- Also, if the tool crash cuz, ye dont know, sometimes it just crashed, I have to restart the whole pc or I wont be able translated new games -.-

Why the updates?

You might wonder why this seems to function so seamlessly, resisting crashes even after translation.
The answer lies in constant updates.

What allows it to operate on nearly every user's system without the need for additional setup?
Once again, the key is continuous updating.

Why are the new games predominantly compatible as well?
It's because I ensure they are, by updating the software from the very first day!

I cater to tens of thousands of games with this engine.
With such a vast number, it's simply beyond my capability to test all of them.

So, how do I maintain the smooth operation? Through your feedback.
I take note of any reported issues, address them, and roll out fixes in subsequent updates.
These 'updates' are the unseen heroes that keep you free from problems.

Plus, there are some who eagerly await the next "update", and you might not want to update immediately, keeping them in anticipation.

You might argue, "Then don't force updates. Allow people to choose when they want to update."

That was my initial approach, but experience showed that more often than not, when a user encountered a problem with a game, they wouldn't take the initiative to update.
Instead, they'd reach out to me with the issue, leaving me to handle the "unproductive feedback".

Despite being offered for free, these updates aren't exactly "free" for me.
My time and money go into creating these "free" updates, with costs including purchasing games and tools to ensure compatibility.

I only charge for translations, an area that demands substantial expenditure on my part, and even then, the price is significantly lower than directly using a translation engine.

And remember, these updates are readily available for free, just a few clicks away.

Isn't that a fair trade-off?

You're entirely within your rights not to use it, but don't question its efficiency.

-----------------------------
As for post-crash scenarios:

In case the tools haven't fully exited with a crash, you can locate the process in the Task Manager and terminate them.
Afterward, everything should return to normal.

zths for what it is worth, i am grateful for you continuously updating and improving the app. Its literally one press of a button to update the Tool so it is not difficult nor hard. Again thank you for your hard work and dedication.

Try this:

You must be registered to see the links

Just run it before each start MTool (or less) to get latest version of app.
It's fine for me, but sometimes update tool as usual. To get all functions from MTool.

Also, I think, this topic should be renamed to "MTool: ... + press 999 clicks to update MTool to get one click machine translation feature"

I dont think you understood me, for i open MTool and i click on update tool and i am done, so no complaints from me here. Not sure where you get the 997 other clicks from

Double-click to start the tool (2), one click on "Click to get update" to update when a new version is out (3), click "Ok" on update complete confirmation window (4), then the up-to-date tool starts. That's four clicks. FOUR.
You, good Sir, have just lied and spread misinformation to innocent bystanders on the interwebz!! Your shame knows NO bounds!!

Repent.

...that said, non-supporter users do need, like, ~10 clicks to update, which is truuuly insane and awful. (lol)

 

[Zenneto]

It doesn't seem to work on RPG Maker XP Games when they use the Pokemon Essentials.

As you said, is a lot of clicks and MTool could be updated more like once per day.
So, I think MTool Updater should update in one click

I wouldn't count starting the tool, since I was going to do that anyway. So I count two clicks, one to start and the OK button once it's finished.

What if you started the tool and it sits in the main tab when - I don't think that it looks for and prompts you for update on idle, apart from when starting up - a new version comes out? You would have to start a game and then quit it, or the very least switch mtool tabs, and then back to main tab for the update option to appear.
Potential 2 more clicks! (unless ofc I'm mistaken and the tool actually also checks regularly while sitting idly, with you on the main/starting tab; though the more I think about it the more logical it seems that it pushes a notification from server-side to every active mtool when a new version comes out... oh well lol)
So let's compromise on three!

If not obvious, I'm actually poking fun at how easy it is to update this anyhow. Like 5 seconds for a supporter, and a minute for a guest (... all right, I guess your mileage may vary depending on how fast your internet lets you DL the 7-8MB new version file)...

As you said, is a lot of clicks and MTool could be updated more like once per day.
So, I think MTool Updater should update in one click

You do you. Glad you figured out a QoL improvement for yourself and nice work (haven't checked, but I guess it's operational?). Just saying that even if you work with mtool 24/7, even then I wouldn't consider updating it a hassle needing an extra program. I was being sarcastic with the number of clicks, lol.
I guess Guest users will find it useful, though, so thanks. Just hope there won't be compatibility issues down the line.

That's probably a endless topic, those who wants everything free and perfect will never change their mind.
Like pirates, nothing can change their mind.

Will RPG Developer Bakin supported? just wondering, since the developer that I follow is testing Bakin as possible platform for future products.
