Setup & Workflow Instructions

  1. License & API Setup
    • Open the License & Key Verification window.
    • Paste your Asset Store invoice number (no spaces before or after) and click Verify Invoice.
    • Enter your OpenAI API key (or Gemini/XAI key optionally).
    • Important: Translator Pro requires OpenAI API key for full features. Without it, only basic results are available.
  2. Language Setup & Table Creation
    • Go to Setup & Language Selector.
    • Select desired languages ("Select Only Global" for shortcut).
    • Click Setup to generate localization tables.
  3. Project Translator – Scene & Prefab Selection
    • Choose AI model (recommended: GPT-4.1).
    • Add all scenes and UI-containing prefabs.
    • Click RUN to automate translation setup.

    During Play Mode:

    • Let your game run ~10 seconds per scene.
    • Translator Pro captures runtime/dynamic texts (dialogues, scores, etc.).
    • Does not detect texts that never render on screen.

    Reset Anytime: Use RESET button to fully remove Translator Pro and revert scene.

  4. Quality Control Center
    • Open the Quality Control window after translations.
    • Click Start Quality Control to begin AI-powered verification.
    • Requires successful RUN + OpenAI key + scene playback.

Common Questions

Q: Can I use Translator Pro without an OpenAI API key?
A: Yes, but only with limited quality. Full semantic QC and accurate translations require your own key.

Q: What is the 6-layer Quality Control system?
A: It verifies not only grammar, but meaning — using scene context and AI models. More than 6 layers are applied for rare languages.

Q: Does it remove my existing localization setup?
A: No. It disables them temporarily. You can RESET anytime.

Q: Can it work offline?
A: No, you need internet for translation & quality checks.

Q: My localization table looks empty.
A: Clear search box in Localization tab – Unity bug.

Q: I don’t want certain texts to be translated (e.g., brand names)?
A: Add DontTranslate.cs to that GameObject.

Q: What if I have very long entries (1200+ characters)?
A: Use your own API key. Free mode may fail above this size.

Q: Which model should I choose?
A: Always use GPT-4.1 or 4o. Avoid reasoning/chat-style models.

Q: Can I translate my existing CSV tables?
A: Yes. Import into Unity → convert to String Table → Translator Pro will process it.
