Game Packs
Game-specific profiles that bundle capture settings, glossaries, custom prompts, and vocabulary stats into one shareable package.
What's in a Game Pack?
- Game metadata — title, display name, genre, process name
- Language pair — source and target language
- Capture settings — mode (region/cursor), dimensions, offset
- Glossary — game-specific term dictionary with categories
- Custom prompts — per-pack translation, VLM, dictionary, and grammar prompts
- Word frequency — how often each word appears in the game
- Vocabulary coverage — percentage of game words you've learned
- Blacklist — words excluded from auto-save
Glossary
Each Game Pack has a glossary of game-specific terms. These are injected into translation prompts to improve accuracy for proper nouns, items, and skills.
Categories:
- Character
- Location
- Item
- Skill
- Game Term
- (Uncategorized)
Glossary entries can be added manually, imported from a file, or built with the AI Assistant (MCP).
Pack Management
Free: Up to 3 packs. Steam: Unlimited — create, edit, duplicate, delete, and share.
- Create — start a new pack for any game
- Edit — modify settings, glossary, and prompts
- Duplicate — clone an existing pack as a starting point
- Delete — remove a pack and its associated data
Custom Prompts
Each pack can override the default prompts used for translation. This lets you tailor the AI's behavior per game — for example, instructing it to use specific terminology or tone.
Prompt types:
- Translation — OCR text translation prompt
- VLM — vision mode prompt
- Dictionary — word lookup prompt
- Grammar — grammar analysis prompt
Variables like {from_lang}, {to_lang}, {context} are auto-substituted at runtime.
