- Copy Translator3000.rpa to the game folder in the directory of the game you want to translate.
- The following paragraphs will describe the manual setup.
- In this version of the translator you can also configure the settings using the graphical interface.
- The interface is shown/hidden with the key combination Alt+~ (tilde) (in the English keyboard layout).
- If you configure the settings in the GUI, you don't need to read the rest of the instructions.
- Start the game and close it, after starting.
- Open the file _translator3000_setting.json that appeared in the game directory.
- In the directory of the game itself. Not in the "game" folder.
- Change the parameters to the required ones, replacing the value null:
- Important: Check for quotes, when entering text values! null did not have them, but for "en" they are needed.

- For example, if requestsFrequency is 100 - the real value will be in the range from 75 to 100.
-
- The default value is 100.
- Use this option only at your own risk, because it is possible to block by the service, if the number of consecutive requests is too large and it is suspected of automating requests.
- To simulate the human factor, the real number of requests will be randomized in the range:
- Maximum number of requests to the translation service per minute.
- Parameter extraTextOptions (multiple values):
- Options that will apply to the translated text.

- P.S.:
I do not speak English very well, so I wrote this manual using online translators.
If a native speaker decides to help me correct translation errors, I would be very grateful.
