Can change primary language to alternate language?

#1 Post by wtfman » Sun Mar 14, 2021 9:43 am

For example, primary is English, and alternate language(ex: Korean) translated scripts are in game folder/tl/korean

In this situation, is there a Ren'Py feature that allows me to swap or overwrite the primary to alternate?

In the worst case, is it possible at least to extract the script from the translation file into a txt or tab file?

The answer is basically "no", but the translation file format is fairly simple.
