How Can I Improve Game Speed in AutoTrans?

Last updated 2 months ago

Why does the game slow down and lag?

The real-time translation mode works by translating all text on the game screen. The more text there is on the screen, the more text needs to be processed for translation, which can cause the game to freeze or lag. The game freezing or lagging means it is waiting for the translation process to complete.

How can I prevent certain text from being translated to improve game performance?

You can adjust the settings in Translation Filters to ensure certain text is not translated or only the game dialogue is translated.

Does the choice of machine translation service affect game speed?

Yes, the machine translation service you choose can impact performance:

  • Google Lite may be faster than Google Web

  • Google Web may be faster than DeepL Web

  • DeepL API may be faster than DeepL Web

Can I reuse translations to speed up the game?

If the game has multiple versions and you have played it before, you can export and import the translation memory so that the text does not need to be re-translated.

What is the best mode for games with a lot of text and menus?

Choosing the translation mode with translation cache is better for games with many choices and menu texts. The translation cache feature is available from version 0.8.7. Note: Since v0.8.9-beta, cached translations are used by default.
