Firstly, thanks for the tool.

Secondly, I can't import the text file I translated.. It says "Succesfully imported 0 file(s)." I even tried to import the original text file without any editing, but it said the same. What I do is:
I choose the bin file in game's data folder as the input direction, and choose the folder which contains the text file I edited as the output folder and click Import. "Convert text file" option is checked. Am I doing somethin wrong or?

First, unpack the bin/rmdp file. Because you need the string_table.bin file from the bin/rmdp. You can delete the other unpacked files.

What will I do with string_table.bin? I already have the .txt file (which you sent me) and when I unpack the bin/rmdp file and put the text file into locale\en folder, I try to import but it doesn't work. Do I need to delete the string_table.bin file which comes when I unpack the bin/rmdp file? Do I need to convert the text file I have to .bin format? What should I do exactly.. Can you tell me?

And If I need to edit the .bin file - can you tell me a program to view it?

Steps:
-Unpack everything from the bin/rmdp
-delete everything, what you won't edit or change, so in this case, leave only the string_table.bin and it's subfolder
-paste there the translated string_table.bin.txt
-run the tool if you closed, open the bin file, Import

How to add language to the game?

Code: Select all

.\data\config\locale_config.xml
Add:

Code: Select all

<!-- Begin Partial+ localizations -->
    <!-- XC_LANGUAGE_RUSSIAN -->                        <config xgetlanguage_id="12"    xgetlocale_id="0"   folder="ru"   subtitles_default="1"     bink_voiceover_channel="2"  use_only_one_font="0" />
<!-- End Partial+ localizations -->
Language is added, but no text.

Code: Select all

[MENU_WELCOME]
Does anyone know what to do?

Like this:
locale_config.xml

Code: Select all

<!-- XC_LANGUAGE_FAKELANG -->                        <config xgetlanguage_id="12"    xgetlocale_id="0"   folder="fake"   subtitles_default="1"     bink_voiceover_channel="2"  use_only_one_font="0" />
And need in the data folder these files:
ep999-000-fake.bin
ep999-000-fake.rmdp

fake = a language ID

But the game contain already the Russian language.

In Alan Wake American Nightmare is not Russian.
I have created:

Code: Select all

ep999-000-ru.bin
ep999-000-ru.rmdp
Add:

Code: Select all

<!-- Begin Partial+ localizations -->
    <!-- XC_LANGUAGE_RUSSIAN -->                        <config xgetlanguage_id="12"    xgetlocale_id="0"   folder="ru"   subtitles_default="1"     bink_voiceover_channel="2"  use_only_one_font="0" />
<!-- End Partial+ localizations -->
+ Replaced the font (customer_facing.binfnt, customer_facing_typewriter.binfnt) (from Alane Wake - Russian)
But still no text.
If replace text:

Code: Select all

ep999-000-en.bin
ep999-000-en.rmdp
It works.

"use_only_one_font" means: the use only the customer_facing.binfnt font file.
The customer_facing_typewriter.binfnt is smaller, and not contain special characters. And this font not contain those characters, you using. And you cannot add new characters!

Well, which font uses Alan Wake for books? Or what files I need to add to the package?
As you can see buttons in right bottom displays normally. (And any other text too.)

The manuscript pages use customer_facing_typewriter.binfnt font, IF use_only_one_font = 0.
Write back the use_only_one_font to 1. That's all you can do.
