This translation is done using the Cosmic Forge Editor, which has a feature which dumps the game text into a file that can be machine translated into Japanese (Steps on how to do this). |
Issues fixed
- The keyboard input indicator is not shown when in mouse mode; these steps switch to keyboard mode, allowing the indicator to be displayed.
- Full keyboard input is also useful if you are wanting to play with a controller (use the DOSBox Mapper to change key assignments).
Change input mode[citation needed]
|
- At the main menu go to Game Configuration.
- Change Input to Keyboard.
- Choose Exit to save your changes. Repeat to switch back to mouse mode.
