What it solves

MORT addresses the difficulty of playing games in foreign languages by automatically extracting and translating on-screen text in real time. It bridges the gap for players who want to understand dialogue or interface text that is not natively translated.

How it works

The program uses optical character recognition (OCR) to scan specific areas of your screen that you define. Once the text is captured, it sends the data to your choice of machine translation services—such as Google, Papago, DeepL, or custom APIs—and displays the translated result over your game window.

Who it’s for

It is designed for Windows users who play games in languages they do not fully understand and prefer a real-time, overlay-based translation solution. It is best suited for users playing in windowed or borderless windowed modes.

• Integrates with various translation services like Naver Papago, Google, and DeepL.
• Allows for custom API integration for advanced users to connect their own translation services.
