Link to Japanese Translation Tool
Hi everyone,
I'm not sure if i should put it here, these are the new links to 2 translation tools. You must install both for them to work. I'm not so good in describing how to do the setting
First, let me give you links to the download site:
(Please change the hxxp to http, i dun want anyone point fingers at me saying that i am illegally direct linking to their site)

Atlas Translation Software (it is a trial, if u manage to get a key, please tell me -- i'm so guilty :p)

Agth:

Here are some descriptions about AGTH:
AGTH - program for capturing text from running programs. Main purpose - extracting text from japanese games for translation.
AGTH works by intercepting program calls of system text functions. So when game tries to print some text on the screen it isn't only printed but also captured as text.
AGTH doesn't search for text in any files or program memory, doesn't try to OCR any screen area - it just logs text interaction of program and system. So if game uses its own images of text instead of system text functions - nothing useful can be capturen from it.
There is program that tries to do the same thing - "Oh! Text Hooker". AGTH should work fine with any game OTH works fine, with games where OTH inserts garbage in text, and even with some games where OTH couldn't captute text at all.
AGTH works on WindowsXP/2003. On Windows2000 some features work and some don't work. It does not and will not work on Win9x. Recomended operation system - Windows2003 SP1.

ATLAS:
It translates the japanese words from clipboards into english words. I dun know if what i said is right, but the way im using it, it juz do like that
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
First step:
1. I want to tell you not all games work with this tool. You are lucky if it works. If it does not work, the problem is not from ATLAS but rather from AGTH that still need some improvement.
2. Go to the game folder, the folder where you install the game
3. Find the <gamename>.exe, right click mouse, send to --> desktop(create shortcut).
4. Go to your desktop and find the shortcut.
5. Right mouse click on the shortcut, properties, and see Target. You will see sumthing like this, "C:\Games\Maou no Musume-tachi\twins.exe"
6. Remember where you put your AGTH files that you have download before? Let say you put the agth.exe in drive C in a folder named AGTH, the path will be C:\AGTH\agth.exe
7. Alrite, now see at the Target again and you append the path like this
"C:\AGTH\agth.exe" "C:\Games\Maou no Musume-tachi\twins.exe" and click OK
Second step:
1. Install ATLAS tool, this is the trial version.
2. Next, go set the japanese language for ur windows. Don't worry, ATLAS has the manual. I am to tired to write all here and it is not so difficult to do the settings
3. Open QuickAtlas. It will apper near ur clock, right click, enable mouse translation and automatic clipboard translation. Next, open ATLAS mouse translation
Third step:
1. Go back to ur game's shortcut, click to play and ur games will appear as well as the AGTH console. Now, you scrole the AGTH translation options until japanese words appear at the area below it
2. Now, as you click your game, all the japanese words will appear in AGTH console, and translated to english by the Atlas
3. Basically, three things will appear at ur desktop, ur game, agth console, and quickatlas
By the way, my explanation may sounds a little bit confusing but do not worry, the links I provide above have guides to do the setting. I'm juz to tired right now to check my writings
