Change the main menu text

#1 Post by MissCaroth »

This is probably the most boring and stupid question, but I can't seem to find an answer for the love of me.
I would like to change the text of all the GUI of my game. I wrote it in french, my RenPy is set to french but the text of the GUI is in english. Is there a way to change the language of the menu without creating a translation file ? It seems to be the only solution I have, but I feel like there is a simpler way to achieve this.

Thank you very much in advance and sorry for the stupid question.

Code: Select all

I would try going to the preferences in the renpy launcher and set language to French.
Create a new project and copy script.rpy plus any assets (images) to the new project.
