JSON (details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON) 2. CSV (details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values) You can choose the format in the plugin settings. ### Attention! ### The encoding in the translation files must be UTF-8 without BOM. I recommend using Notepad++ for editing JSON files. I recommend using Google Docs to edit CSV files. Microsoft Office may not support UTF-8! ###=========================================================================== ## Instructions ###=========================================================================== ### 1 ### Installation ### Add at least one language in the "Game languages" parameter. ## Incomplete list of recommended locales ## Russian - ru Ukrainian - uk Belarusian - be English - en Chinese - zh Japanese - ja Korean - ko French - fe German - de Spanish - es Czech - cs Italian - it If you did not find a locale in this list, you can find it on the Internet, for example, here: https://www.science.co.il/language/Locale-codes.php ### 2 ### Usage ### 1. When you first start the game, the plugin will create a folders for translations and json files for each language (or csv file). 2. To localize text use the tags: {}. 3. To use a variable inside text use the tag: \VAR…

Is this the last line in the file? The last line must not contain a comma at the end.

the plugin is incredible, really good, I just need help, how do I make a script call to use in a condition to know which language is being used? example: if the language is x to display something, but if the language is y to display something else, I saw the script calls that you showed but I didn't find, I'm lost

Do you mean to show different pictures for different languages?

Read the help section for instructions on how to use the resources for each language. In short, just create a folder inside pictures (or other folder), name it the desired locale and put the image there. The game will automatically use it for that language. There is an example in the demo.

The plugin worked very well on Windows but when I ran it on Android, it gave me this despite no file was missing.

Did you update the filesystem stamp with a plugin command before compiling the project?

I have no idea what that means. What is updating the filesystem stamp? I don't think I've done that.

To run on mobile devices and browsers, you must follow these instructions:
1. Make sure you have Nwjs + Stamp filesystem mode enabled in the DKTools plugin.
2. Before compiling the project, you must run the UpdateFileSystemStamp plugin command from the DKTools plugin.
3. Compile the project for the required platform.
A description of the filesystem modes can be found in the DKTools plugin help.

@DK

I was thinking, do you want me to DM you the localization files that I have? Maybe you'll then see what's wrong with them.

In database-system 2, I left the width of the screen at 1280 and the height of the screen at 720, but I wanted to leave the UI area at 816x624 because I think it looks more beautiful, but the flags are as in the photo, how do I align correctly ?

I'm with some problem to understand the process to put it online.

I have have two localizations: en and pt

The plug-in created to me the locales/en/main.json and locales/pt/main.json.

Im putting the text there, and it is working fine, I can change the language etc.

Now... im trying to deploy it at itch.io (web).

I have it on docs:

## Attention! ##
Before publishing a game for browsers or mobile devices,
run the DKTools plugin command UpdateFileSystemStamp to update
file system stamp (more details in the DKTools plugin help)!

My DKTools File System is in mode 1 (Nwjs + Stamp)

But when I'm trying to deploy and run it online I'm getting the error:

Uncaught Error: Localization file does not exist: locales\en.json
How I deal with command UpdateFileSystemStamp? I need to put an in game event? Didn't got it very well...

I put and event in the game with the command (don't know if its the better way to do that) and now, in the output folder, I have en.json and pt.json (and don't have the folders anymore) but when I send to itch.io, I'm still complaining that en.json doesn't exists.

Sorry about something... but im very new in Rpg Maker, and thanks in advance for the help.

Ps. Im using the RPG Maker Mz
