How can I generate CSV files to translate my game messages?
Here is the procedure to follow to generate the CSV files containing the texts of your game:
- Open
cmd.bat
, - Write
psdk --util=eventtext2csv
- Then press
Enter
.
One CSV per map will be created, containing all the message texts for that map.
Note: You will also notice that a notch has been added to each message on RPG Maker XP, of type 1, 54 My message
.
Indeed, once this notch is present you have to modify those messages via an editor like Google Sheets or Visual Studio Code because the modifications will not be taken into account on the RPG Maker XP side. The Sky CSV extension is suitable for this purpose.
