Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Anyone knows, if Can I make a key bind or something to map a translation key combination to a single key on my gamepad? Is there a tool where I can map a key, or combination of keys to one single gamepad button?I want to play SR fully using my gamepad

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Why would you need another program to use the clipboard directly? I just use NVDA and instant Translate, with the japanese games set to output to clipboard. That is all. This worked even when I tried BK3 on a new computer on which I hadnt yet installed

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games because I like to listen to the japanese text and dialogue as well as the translation, so I use pro NVDA and talkerdont want to hit insert C every time new text comes up for it to be read to me, lol URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games at CaeJones:Are you familiar enough with Shadow Line to tell me how to make the game automatically send stuff to the clipboard, or am I going to have to hit f12 every time dialogue pops up? If I just have to suck that up and deal, Ill do it, but Id rather

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games In the options its first one, and in the next set of options its first one, you chaning from left to right. Probably first one is automatic, second one SAPI and third one Clipboard. Try that. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=185825

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Okay. I figured it out, sorta, but theres got to be a better way. I monkeyed around with things, had it reccognize NVDA, but I still have to hit f12 and then NVDA+shift+y every time I want to read. Is this how its going to be, or is there some way

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games there is a clipboard option in the screen reader selection, I personally dont use it thoughthe only reason using the auto detect doesnt bother me is because I changed the key I use to use clip copy to NVDA shift F12, so I could go from copy to translate

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Two questions:1. Why dont you use the clipboard thing if its built-in? Wouldnt you actually save keystrokes that way? Is there some sort of downside?2. For me, when Im trying to choose an output method, I have five menu items going left to right. NVDA

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games firstly, I personally just dont use clipboard because 1 it requires you run another program to actually have the text read to you, and 2 because I do like to listen to the japanese, as little as I actually understandclipboard is I believe the third option

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Right, so Im having some issues getting started.I went over to Bladestorms guide for a starting-point. I grabbed NVDA and installed it. I then got hold of the translation thing, an Eloquence driver (because I prefer that voice unless I cant use

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games The old version of the addon used nvda+shift+y, but the new version uses something a little more complicated. nvda+shift_t should play a tone, then you can press another keystroke (in this case, shift+t) to do other things. URL: http

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games jade, I think clip copy is also available in that guide which comes in handy for thisif you get that you can just play the game without having to worry about setting it to clipboard, even if its autodetecting the screen reader you can just press F12

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Okay. Does anyone have a link to version 2.0? Unless theres an excellent reason to use 3.0, Id rather just use one keystroke than have to use two every time I want to translate, especially as the NVDA key for me is caps lock and having to press caps lock

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games the file extention needs to be .nvda-addon. and Im actually looking for 2.1 too... could you post a dropbox link or a link to where you found it? And yes, you can change sound volume and whatnot in the options menu. If youve gotten the manual to translate

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games I figured that there might be a way to optimize the game so it only uses sounds, rather than pictures as well. This might be advantageous if theres lag, as it is in my case.The only versions of 2.1 or 2.0 Ive found are .zip folders, and I dont actually

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games I believe they are actually in .zip format, but with the .nvda-addon file extention.I think I could fix it if its treating it as a plain zip, but to explain/learn how to do so from a forum post might be kinda frustrating. :-/ URL: http

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games You could always try, anyhow. As I said, I dont see anything about NVDA-addon in the .zip folder when its extracted. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=185662#p185662 ___ Audiogames

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games try this link, its version 3.0 dev which is on the NVDA addons page, didnt read anything about using 2 keystrokes though, this is the same version I usehttp://addons.nvda-project.org/files/ge … ile=it-dev URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games If you use 3.0, from what I understand, you use NVDA+shift+T to send to the clipboard, then shift+t to translate. You do this every time you want something translated. Im pretty sure version 2.0 or 2.1 just used one keystroke that somehow did both?Using

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games okay ignore my last post, lol apparently they did update the addon thats on that page, but didnt update the change logbut yes you can map keys, what you want to do is go in to the NVDA menu with insert/capslock N, preferences and input gesturesfind

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Hi again,Thanks for the info about mapping keys. I have another question though: will these steps work for Windows 8 as well? Not the mapping, I mean all the clipboard/configuration stuff. I hae a windows 8 machine thats probably much better equipped

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games well I personally dont have windows 8, but Id assume it would be relatively similar unless the whole handling other languages thing got overhauled URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=185706#p185706

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games NVDA shift Y is the keystroke youll be using for translating clipboard textI dont exactly remember where the option for clipboard is, but what you can do is go in to the options menu then use the clip copy addon to copy what its reading, then translate

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Seal and CAE have basically said everythig that has to be said. So Ill just echo their sentiments. Some people consider having to unscramble Google translations as a chore, but I think its quite doable even if you dont know the language... I speak fairly

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Is BK more of a side-scroller or what? As I said, I like honest-to-god exploration, and a more sci-fi run-and-gun side-scroller probably isnt my thing.Listened to some of your Shadow Line lets play, and youre right...lovely music, and while Im not quite

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games BK mixes it up a bit; the first game is an exploration RPG (keep in mind that navigation is trickier there; there was a while when it first came out when a lot of people couldnt find their way out of the house, but once you get going its fine); BK2

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Jade, if exploration is more your thing, then Shadow Rine would definitely be more your cup of tea since the world is much bigger. BK 1 is more exploration-heavy, as cae said, but I wouldnt necessarily say that BK 2 and 3 are just run and gun action games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Hi,[[wow]]. Guys, this post calls for a litle story of sorts, so bare with me please. But lets just say, I like these games a lot. Heres what happened for me last year:Honestly, last year in the audiogame scene, specifically winter, was, to put it in one

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Im with Assault_freak: BK1 plays more like an exploration RPG, but BK3 feels more like one. And ShadowRine is much more the Zelda-esque exploration-heavy game compared to the the lot of them.Aaron wrote:Im now left wondering, what will be next?Ive been

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Hmm, all right. The one main criteria Im after is quick translation. I dont want to be left guessing, and a quick keystroke to grab/translate dialogue or item stuff would be great.Incidentally, in Assault Freaks lets play I hear the main voice in the game

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games First, to your synthesizer question. Quick translation doesnt depend on the game youre playing, thats a thing from NVDA... all the game does is output the text to the clipboard which allows you to translate on the fly rather than having to manually do

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games So wait. Im a bit unsure of something. Are you saying that if I use NVDA but get the driver that lets NVDA usse the Eloquence voice, Im going to run into problems?Thanks for the info about bosses and movement and such. I was just afraid that if you were

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games

Re: Curiosity about Japanese Games Well, using NVDAs instant translate will help in your way. Everything japanese is definitely a MUCH HAVE and shadow line, BK series or text RPGs are definitely great.I wants to have full translations of these games, but probably we never see these out
