GameTextReader 0.9.5

Changelog:

• Fixed incorrect version number causing false update notifications.
• Improved voice manager error handling.

Thanks for all the feedback and support!

GameTextReader 0.9.4.6

Changelog:

• Added AI Voices from Piper and Kokoro with customization options.
• Added a Voice manager window where you can select what voices you want in your voice dropdown, so it's not so cluttered.
• Changed the UI of the Additional options window a bit better to navigate now.
• Character Normalization is ON by default now on new layout.

Bug Fixes:

• Using Numpad as a hotkey was broken, now fixed.
• Window Flashes:
  When opening a window, it would first generate a small one, then flash into a bigger one. Looks like 2windows open, then the small one disappears just for a split second. This should be fixed for all windows.

Thanks for all the feedback and support!

GameTextReader 0.9.4.5

Changelog:
Bug Fix:

• Fixed where the program would read i / I as a | instead of I. this should now be fixed.

Developer Note:
Mentioned some time ago that I was working on a new version from scratch. But the sheer size of the program, combined with maintaining this version, has led to some burnout on my end. So the new version will come at some point, probably, but not anytime soon.

I’ll still fix critical bugs on this current version whenever I have the time.

Thanks for all the feedback and support!

GameTextReader 0.9.4.4

Changelog:
Bug Fixes:

• Fixed the automation detection area not activating.
• Fixed "Tessdata error" where, on a fresh install, it could not detect text.

GameTextReader 0.9.4.3

Changelog:
Bug Fixes:
Problems with Text Replacement using hard-coded phrases, even though they were deleted. (now fixed)
Offset Scanning. If Windows is set to anything other than 100% scaling it would offset the scan. This is now fixed.

GameTextReader will no longer receive regular feature updates, except for critical bug fixes.

GameTextReader 0.9.4.2

-Translation settings were not saved between launching the program. This is now fixed

Note:
GameTextReader.exe -> No translator feature. (smaller file size)

GameTextReader 0.9.4

Changelog:

• Added Tesseract OCR settings in Additional Options.
  setting the language intended to be scanned here, will make it have better text detection.

• Added an offline translator (https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate)
  here you can set your input / output language. for instance you scan English text it will be read as German. or any other variation.

• Added a Master Hotkey in the main window.
  using this will toggle enable/disable all hotkeys.

• Other minor UI changes, resized windows, and other small stuff...

Developer Note:
GameTextReader will no longer receive regular updates, except for critical bug fixes.

I’m starting a full rebuild from scratch with the goal of making the program easier to install, easier to use, and better for adding accessibility features. The current codebase has become hard to maintain, so this rewrite will make future development much more streamlined.

It’s always motivating to hear from people who find the program useful!
Thanks for all the support and feedback!
