English translation installation instruction available here (Releases page)

God bless the soul of the author of this article: https://haniwa.technology/alice-tools/README-ain.html

So, apparently, with alice-tools it's very easy to edit the text in the game to translate it.

And, as we all know, nowadays ChatGPT is a thing so it should be rather easy to translate the game with rather fine quality.

I'll put here the scripts and their output.

Steps to Build

1. Install node.js
2. Run npm i to install dependencies
3. Run npm run regenerate-ain to replace your C:\Program Files\AliceSoft\ランス１０\Rance10.ain with translated version (you will likely need to either open terminal as administrator for that or change the access of the C:\Program Files\AliceSoft\ランス１０\ folder to "Full Access" for "Everyone" group)
4. Run npm run regenerate-ex to do same for the Rance10EX.ex file that translates skill descriptions, character descriptions, quests, etc...
5. Run npm run regenerate-pack to translate some UI elements, like settings menu

(there are also some image translations in Rance10CG2_v1_04 and Rance10Flat_v1_04 folders, but for them there is currently no simple command)
