Are you talking about the RPG Maker MV program (the editor)? Or are you talking about your game?
-
Steam or standalone editor?

No,no..just game -
For your game, you'll need to set your editor to the language you want the game in and then create a new project.
If you already started development in the wrong language, you'll need to translate everything manually in the database.
If you want your game to be multilingual, then you'll need to use one of the plugins for that and follow its rules (again, easier if development has not yet started) -
@Andar Would you suggest?

I have a plugin like this, but it does not work when I press ctrl + T

Or you could also set a variable to determine your language. Example: 0 = english, 1 = french, 2 = japanese, etc. The thing is that you will need to edit every event so that depending on your language variable's value the language changes. Things like this are a lot easier to implement when you start development, not mid-way into development.

Sorry, I've never used that plugin so I don't know how it works. If you need Support with a Plugin, then I suggest you create a thread in the "Plugin Support" forum specifically for your issue. Make sure to include:
1. Link to the plugin
2. Screenshot of the plugin parameters
3. Screenshot of your plugin manager
4. Screenshot of the console (F8) during playtest -
I was just asking how it was done, would you suggest another add-on?
-
How far into game development are you?
I would suggest using Iavra Localisation, but that works best if used from the beginning and is a lot of work when entering all data at a later development stage. -
How do I enter my game database and change languages?

Roxen010, please avoid double posting, as it is against the forum rules. You can use the "Edit" function on your posts to add additional information you've forgotten or respond to multiple people. You can review our forum rules here. Thank you.

You open the database in the editor, delete all current language texts and then place new texts in the new language.How do I enter my game database and change languages?
By default, all RMs support only single language games - you can not keep a language when changing to another.
You'll need a plugin to have multiple languages at the same time, and even then it is NOT easy.
For example you have to change every event where you ever used a show text command for something other than grunts. That is why I said it is easiest if you haven't started writing your events...
