Update: New Tsukihime script (Thanks to [DC]#7589 for making this) is out (31/8/21). It allows Agent and Sugoi to translate all choices,  translate the rubi text, fix several problems (missed text, jitblock,....without restart)

  1. What you need first:

  • Make sure you have installed Yuzu + Tsukihime (up to version 1.0.1) in the other guide first.
  • Agent text hooker program: Go to its official website
  • Sugoi Translation v3.0: Download link - Alternative link - Lightweight version
  • Tsukihime D-Code Script new version: No longer needed
  • Translation Aggregator: For those who can read Japanese but still not good at it. You can use this program to help you look up at hard Kanji or hard Vocabulary: Download here
  • Windows version: 1803 or any version above 1803
  • Extract both Agent and Sugoi Translation or Translation Aggregator after you finish download it

  1. How to set up Agent hook program

  1. Extract Agent-master first by right click -> Extract here
  2. Run Yuzu first, then run Agent.exe. On Application option, right click on “…” button and hold then release at Yuzu  to  inject Yuzu.exe into it (Make sure yuzu is showing behind Agent program). Looks at the below picture for reference

Optional: You can just click on it and go to Yuzu Directory and choose yuzu.exe
If you still unsure on how to do it, watch this video

  1. Restart Yuzu and run Tsukihime. Run Agent again, then attach (Remember to right click at “...”) it to Yuzu. You should only inject (attach) Agent when you are at the black screen of Tsukihime (the part where it show a black screen or warning scene right before the main menu). See below image if you still don’t know

If it show “script loaded”, then Agent have managed to hook the game  and loaded the script (below image)

  1. After that, play the game, if it shows Japanese text in it (like the below message) when you play the game. It means you have succeeded in hooking the text.

Note: Agent can’t hook the text in the opening, so you must wait for the OP to finish first

  2. Update: This is outdated, you no longer need to translate each choice manually. The new Tsukihime script will group all text choices together and translate them at once. Update your script with the new link at the top
    Note: When you meet dialogue choices options    , because the program only translates the last line, you need to go to the debug tab on Agent program. It will display all choice options as text lines (See below image). Highlight the text you wish to translate and then Ctrl + C. Sugoi translation will translate it for you

  1. How to use Translation Aggregator to help you read the visual novel in Japanese better

  1. Go to Sugoi Translation folder -> Dictionary Program (optional) -> Run TranslationAggregator.exe (You can run TranslationAggregator without Sugoi Translation, just need to download it separately)
  2. Translation Aggregator should show up like this. You can hover the text to see the meaning of the vocabulary or any kanji you want. You can also set it to show furihana

  1. Common problems

  • If you meet this error (below message). Try update your GPU drive

  • Agent can’t hook text in the opening (Shiki monologue when you first open the game) and give you errors (check below images): Agent can’t hook text in the opening, the only way is wait for the game to finish the opening, after that it will be able to hook the text.

  • Agent gave you this error: Check your windows version, make sure you update your windows to 1803 update or above

  • The system cannot find the file specified (below image): Make sure you inject it through Right click at “...”. If it still fails, copy the script file to “Script” sub-folder in agent-master folder and try again. Btw, try running both Agent and Yuzu as administrator

  • The game menu doesn’t show button or menu: Update your game to 1.0.1
  • Agent gives you Access violation messages in debug tab (below image): update your game to 1.0.1
