String Table Modding Tools

Hello all! As mentioned in my previous post, I am taking a short break from making mods to work on modding tools for my fellow creators. The first two of these tools are now ready, and may be of special interest to modders and translators.

Updated Plans for Language Barriers v2.0

Hello everyone! Sorry I've been a bit MIA lately - between my new job and moving into my new apartment (which I'm still furnishing and decorating...), I've barely had any time to work on modding.

Language Barriers v2.0 Alpha 4 Delayed

Hey everyone!

I've been aiming to get one alpha for Language Barriers v2.0 out every week, but I'm a bit tied up this time. What I'm currently working on (re-doing miscommunication and interaction locking) has turned into a very large project in itself, and it's nowhere near ready to be released.

On top of this, my personal life is going to be pretty packed this week, so the next re...

As you may know, I'm currently updating Language Barriers. This is a pretty big update, and it's going to take me a little while to complete. Rather than giving you vague updates on my progress every now and then, I've decided to share a 2021-05-16 19:49:02 +0000 UTC View Post
