how do I edit the strings? #174

I am trying to edit the dialogue, but when I double-click on the file in the directory, it doesn't open and show the dialogue.

You'll need to give more detail than that, what did you do? What error showed up? Etc

SPONGEROBERT123 commented 5 years ago

I don't have any errors. I just want to know how to edit the dialogue, and I don't know where it's located for undertale. I thought it was in the strings, and I realize that im probably wrong.

Well, all the text is in SCR_TEXT but you are better off using the scripts over at #26 it will export every string to a .txt file that, after editing, you can import back to the game.

Also, you are not wrong, it's just that the strings group have every single object/function name alongside the game text.

If you are using an early Undertale version, it will be in SCR_TEXT. If you are using a later version which has the Japanese language added or Deltarune, it will be in textdata_en. If you're in some other game, it will differ for that game.

I found the dialogue. But, I was also wondering, is there a way to export and import the strings? I can't find anything for doing either, so I wanted to ask.

Kneesnap commented 5 years ago

There were scripts linked in an earlier post which let you do that.
