NMS Translator 5.0

This tool is designed to make it easy to edit language files that contain all the text menus and dialogs in your game; you can also edit them in MBINCompiler, but the resulting exml file takes 20 MB, and 16 language translations are displayed in each line. So I made a tool to convert a .MBIN file into a simple .txt file that only shows the current language: each line has a DATA tag (usually in capital letters), then tabs and a translated word in curly braces. Nothing else is needed. All you have to do is insert new text inside the braces. We hope that this tool will make life easier for fashion people who notice parts of dialogs that are not translated from English or want to correct some dialogs. Due to the complete revision of the French transcription, we noticed several rules: - The text cannot be longer than 1024 bytes. Each character is equal to one byte, but carriage return is also counted as one byte and accented characters as two bytes. If too long text is detected, a debug file is generated. - Double carriage returns push the text into a separate panel, but it is not yet known whether the number of panels per argument is fixed or depends on the text itself. - Text in any panel cannot call the same variable twice. In other words, "%NAME% has this %TITLE%" possibly, but "%NAME% is lying, NAME% is not." Enjoy :) Lo2k History: v5.0 : 5.0 - a new version of the tool that reflects the changes in the file structure added to the game files. v3.1 and v2.3 are still needed to edit files from previous versions of the game. v2.3 : Added two header values that confused MBINCompiler a little when reopening the resulting MBIN file v2.2: Improved stability, redesigned user interface, slightly accelerated conversion time v2.1 : Support for nested parentheses, drag and drop multiple v2.0 files : Updated for Beyond v1.56 : Deleted file name checking (to be able to open new LOC5 files and future new language files) v1.55 : Fixed the problem of converting words with one letter, accelerated MBIN to TXT v1.54 : Non-English LOC4 files, 75 lines were not translated by HG and some new material tags were incorrect v1. 52 : Fixed support for NMS_LOC4 v1 files. 5 : NEXT updated for v1. 2 v1. 2 : After conversion to MBIN added caries return Fixed bug with missing first line v1.1 : v1.0 : original version Compatibility: This tool is compatible with known versions of games, using the appropriate version of the tool. x - Orbital 4.65 or later, NMS Translator 3.x - BEYOND or later, NMS Translator 2.x - NEXT or later NMS Translator 1.5x - language files for versions of games created before NEXT Translator 1.2.
