what is dishonored_2_simplified_chinese_translation fr?

This repository is a complete Simplified Chinese translation mod for the video game Dishonored 2. It covers the main menu, in-game interface, mission text, letters, logs, dialogue subtitles, and it also rebuilds the Chinese fonts used to display the text. The translation treats the official English text as the primary source, using the official Traditional Chinese version only as a reference. Rather than simply converting Traditional Chinese characters into Simplified ones, the author reviewed the wording against the story context, character identities, and how mainland Chinese players commonly speak, fixing mistranslations, missing text, inconsistent terminology, and phrasing that reads unnaturally. The interface text alone covers over six thousand text entries, and the full dialogue layer covers thousands of voice lines and subtitle slots pulled from the game's own official Chinese resources. A matching font rebuild replaces thousands of Chinese character glyphs using Noto Sans SC, fixing sizing, overlapping strokes, and alignment issues in the original font. Installation is Windows only, and only works with a specific Steam build of the game, version 1.77.9.0. It requires a separate free tool called Void Installer, made by a different author and not included in this mod, to install the static resources like the language table and fonts. Getting the fully translated dialogue also requires setting a custom Steam launch option that points to a runtime launcher included in the mod. The game's language must be set to Traditional Chinese in Steam, since the mod reuses that existing language slot rather than adding a new one. The README stresses that the mod does not replace or modify the game's executable file, does not alter save files, and does not change gameplay, enemy behavior, or item stats. It only swaps subtitle text while the game is running. The project includes clear installation, update, and uninstallation steps, along with troubleshooting notes about a brief command window that appears normally at startup. The mod is released under a custom license: free to download and use for personal, non-commercial play, and the original release page may be shared, but reuploading, mirroring, or redistributing modified versions is not allowed without permission. It is an unofficial fan project with no affiliation to the game's original studio or publisher, and it requires owning a legitimate copy of the game.
