Agent Setup Guide
Agent
An excellent way of extracting text from games
If there is a script, consider Agent!
Agent captures in-game text (for visual novels, emulators, games, JRPGs, etc.) using JavaScript scripts. It has a GUI, a CLI mode and supports a shared scripts repository used to extract text from games or programs that Textractor usually cannot
Key Features
- Script-based text extraction
- Easy attachment to games
- Works with Yuzu emulator
- Simple configuration
Setting up Agent
Attaching Agent to the game and configuring the Ext. Texthooker page!
Open Agent and then move the icon to the desired game or program. You can also search for the process name and select it.
Now you can choose to click the < > button (to import your own script) or the right-sided dropdown menu (to select from a wide range of scripts). For the latter, click "Update scripts" and select the script for your desired game using the big dropdown menu at the left of the < > button.
Click "Attach" and Agent will now start extracting text and sending it to your clipboard or localhost:9001 WebSocket (You can select which one you prefer in the settings)
Use an Ext. Texthooker page like Renji's, click the page's gear icon and add "localhost:9001" as the Secondary WebSocket, then connect by pressing the button and hit the "Play" button
