Simple tool for in-place Shift-JIS text injection, compatible with many games.
It is designed to be used together with jstrings as a text extractor.
The main limitation is that it cannot rewrite pointers: translated lines must not exceed the original length, longer strings will be truncated to fit.
This makes it suitable for:
- Menu translations
- Games with little text
Not compatible with:
- Games using custom encodings or compressed text
- Games whose fonts do not include Latin characters
- Text stored as bitmap graphics or textures
