RimTranslate

Desktop app for RimWorld

Translate RimWorld mods with a neural network

Drop a mod into the app — get a ready translation mod to put in your mod list. The original mod stays untouched.

Windows 10 / 11

What it can do

Four tools for everything around mod translation.

Mod translation

Translates the mod's text with a neural network and builds a separate translation mod — with its own preview, About.xml and the right language folder.

Translation update

The mod got an update? Only the new lines are translated and added to your translation — the old ones stay as they are.

File extraction

Prefer to translate by hand? Get a translation mod template with all the original lines in the right place.

Image translation

Translates text on images from the mod's Steam Workshop page: the neural network redraws the captions in the selected language.

How it works

Three steps from an untranslated mod to a translation in your game.

  1. 1

    Connect a neural network

    Enter your API key and model in the settings. OpenAI, OpenRouter, Polza AI or any service with an OpenAI-compatible API will do.

  2. 2

    Drop a mod

    A folder from Steam Workshop or Mods, or a .zip archive. Choose the translation language and press “Translate”.

  3. 3

    Enable it in the game

    Put the finished translation mod into the Mods folder and place it below the original mod in the mod list.

Your key stays with you

The API key and settings are stored only on your computer and are sent only to the provider you chose.

The original is untouched

The translation is always a separate mod. Remove it at any time — the original mod keeps working as before.

Any model you like

GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek — choose the model by quality and price that suit you.

Questions

Why do I need an API key?

The translation is done by a neural network of the provider you choose, and the key gives the app access to it. You pay the provider directly for the text you translate.

How do I enable the translation in the game?

Enable both mods and place the original mod above the translation mod in the mod list. The app can also save the translation straight into the game's Mods folder.

The mod got an update. Do I need to translate it again?

No. Open “Update translation”, choose your current translation and the new mod version — only the new lines will be translated.

Windows warns about an unknown publisher. What should I do?

The app is not yet signed with a paid certificate, so Windows SmartScreen may show a warning. Click “More info” and then “Run anyway”.

How do I get new versions?

The app checks for updates itself and offers to install a new version. You can also download the latest version from this page at any time.
