RuneTranslate

Translate whole games from any language into yours, then play them

What RuneTranslate does

RuneTranslate is a Windows and Linux app that translates games into your language. Point it at a game folder and it pulls out the dialogue, menus and item text, translates it with the provider you pick (free providers, DeepL, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini and more), and rebuilds a playable copy of the game.

It supports RPG Maker, Ren'Py, Unity, Unreal, Kirikiri, Wolf RPG, Godot, GameMaker and more, and works from Japanese, Chinese, Korean and 30+ other source languages. A glossary keeps character names and terms consistent, and a built-in editor lets you review and fix any line before you patch the game.

The glossary is what I'd look at first. We translate a job board into more than ten languages with an LLM, and the painful bugs were never whole sentences. It was one role title coming out three different ways on three pages, or a company name getting translated when it shouldn't. We ended up feeding a per-language term list into every prompt. Does your glossary also flag new terms the model invented a translation for, or does it only enforce what's already in the list?

Neither exactly. Enforcement doesn't go through the prompt at all: glossary terms get swapped for placeholders before the line reaches the model and restored afterward, so the model can't drift on them.

For new terms, there's an auto-detect pass that scans the whole project before translating, picks up recurring katakana names, speaker names and repeated kanji compounds, and suggests them for the glossary with a romaji guess you can edit. So the idea is to catch them before the model ever gets a chance to invent three versions. What it doesn't do yet is audit the output afterward for terms that came out inconsistently. That's a good call though, I'll probably add it.
