Posted January 5Jan 5 Are there some Japanese exclusive games from days gone by that you always wish you could've played? Did your favourite obscure franchise get a game release in Japan but never saw localization or a fan made translation hack? Well it's your lucky day.Interpreter is a new project that can live-translate Japanese text in retro games, all offline and without a required internet connection.The application is optimized for retro games that use traditional pixel-based fonts and uses MeikiOCR. The tool offers two overlay modes - a simple banner overlay as seen above or by replacing text directly over the original Japanese text at OCR-detected positions.Windows, macOS and Linux installers are available, and after the initial model is downloaded, everything runs offline for privacy and speed. ➡️GitHub source View full article
