Tool Sugoi - a translate tool with offline AI-powered model to translate from Japanese; DeePL competitor

[Entai2965]

Does anyone have the older versions of the software? V2.0/V3.0/V4.0 for example. I'd really appreciate if someone uploads them since all the old links are dead and I need to test something out.

Edit:

Here is the Sugoi Offline Translation v4.0 model converted for use with CTranslate2 from Sugoi Toolkit v7.

Edit2: I found something interesting posted on the Sugoi Toolkit discord. It should be possible to repackage Sugoi now with native fairseq + CTranslate2 + CUDA + DirectML support. I will keep working on this.

Edit3: Updated link and description.

Edit4: For reasons that I do not fully understand, there is this post on

now. CPU + CUDA + DirectML support. No ROCm support. It should be possible to get ROCm working on Linux or Windows + WSL from what AMD's documentation says but there is not any documentation about it from the server authors, so there is no repackage for that. Also, DirectML is a joke until MS decides to update it. CTranslate2 + CPU is often better.

Edit5: Updated Fuwa link.

Seems like only cosmetic changes and fixes. Nothing on translation model improvement?

Requirements:

• install Python 3.10 (3.11 may also work but without guarantees)
• install pytorch from the console (to use an RTX series video card)
  pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url
  You must be registered to see the links
  (allegedly better for RTX40xx)
  OR
  pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url
  You must be registered to see the links
  (allegedly better for older RTX series)
• install Microsoft C++ Build Tools:

  You must be registered to see the links
  (I have already installed them, so I am not sure about any problems)

Installation (short version without using venv)

• install via GitHub Desktop: green button "Code" / "Open with GitHub Desktop"
  or with the command "git clone
  You must be registered to see the links
  " (I installed it to the f:\soft\manga-image-translator so this path should be replaced with your)
• open the console (Win+R / cmd.exe)
• open the folder where you installed manga-image-translator (documentation missing this step)
  f:
  cd f:\soft\manga-image-translator
• run
  pip install -r requirements.txt
  pip install git+

  if the last doesn't work, then the alternative is:
  pip install
  You must be registered to see the links

Using
Run in the console from the folder where manga-image-translator is installed:
python -m manga_translator -v --mode batch --use-gpu --translator=sugoi --manga2eng --ignore-errors -f=jpg --font-path=F:/fonts/CCWildWordsRoman.ttf -l ENG -i F:/manga/title
Warning: the first run takes a lot of time because the installation does not include AI models and they downloaded on the first run.

Replace F:/fonts/CCWildWordsRoman.ttf with your font path and F:/manga/title with the path to the manga or images.

Results will be in the F:/manga/title-translated folder.

What do I do if when it says "[SugoiTranslator] Translating into English" is stuck?

Never had such a problem. You can try to ask at

I had to update the repackages I did here since py3translationServer was renamed. I also went ahead and integrated the server software to avoid it ever breaking again. At least there is a web UI and cache integrated now.



To add cache to the Sugoi offline translator.

1. Install the server according to the instructions on
   You must be registered to see the links
2. If it is already started, stop Sugoi Translator
3. Start the server software with the included .bat file at Sugoi-Repackage\py3translationServer.bat
   • Use whichever one works for your hardware
4. Start Sugoi. Sugoi should now use the new server instead of its default one that does not have cache.

Oddly enough, the UI sort-of also works with the default Sugoi server.

Sugoi-Repackage-CPU\apps\Python310\Python.exe -m streamlit run Sugoi-Repackage-CPU\apps\py3translationServer\resources\webUI.py

nvm, had issues with some scripts not installing properly due to path, but it now works properly

Just a newb question: is there a way to fine-tune the Sugoi v4.0 model with my own examples?
Can anyone ELI5 how to do this?

That is as simple as it gets.

Thanks for the hint.

Also I really hope someone can make a way to use a local copy of DeepL's GUI as a frontend like py3translationServer since there's already CTranslate2 model conversion and it surprisingly

I am not exactly sure about how any of that works, but maybe the server author would be up for adding whatever that is as a feature? You could try asking them.

From discord: (about cuda script fix)

For V8, I've noticed the cuda script bundled in the archive is broken I tried replacing this line in the powershell script to get it to install at line 42 from

$installtest = "$ocrfolder\Code\Sugoi-ASMR-Translator.bat";

to

$installtest = "$ocrfolder\Code\Sugoi-Audio-Video-Translator.bat";

Ty so much. That small 2 day window you can download for free is just so utterly stupid and excessive way of paywalling the program. Its obvious he suddenly just wants all users to pay him but skates around a full paywall by doing it this way. He should just make the latest version paid and release the older versions for free, that's how most devs introduce monetization to their free program. But I think he is greedy and wants to try and force all users to pay him immediately

 

[Entai2965]

As long as he does not put DRM on it, it is fine. If there are enough users interested in his software, then having the community mirror it every once in a while is a worthwhile trade off for the dev to continue their development and encourage, but not require, people to donate. If that is how the dev wants to give away his software, it is a worthwhile trade off vs it going closed source, getting drm'd or fully paywalled.

Isn't it also available on kemono since they don't put any measures to check. As long as you have the original download url you can get it, and that one leaks pretty fast.
