Textractor is an open-source x86/x64 text hooker for Windows that extracts text from video games and visual novels by injecting into text outputting functions. It is highly extensible via a plugin/extension system and supports automatic hooking of many game engines.
Use cases
- extract text from visual novels for translation
- hook game text output on Windows
- capture dialogue from Japanese games to feed into a translator
- read in-game text from games with no accessibility support
- build custom extensions to process hooked game text
When to choose
- you play visual novels or games on Windows and want live text extraction
- you need a highly extensible text hooker with extension support
- you want automatic hooking of many game engines without manual hook codes
When to avoid
- you need text extraction on Linux/macOS natively (only Wine is supported)
- you want a general-purpose screen OCR tool rather than runtime text hooking
- your target is a 64-bit-only modern engine that resists injection
