How to export dialogue schemes to mindboards

Post by emphaticmeow »

Hello!

In our game, we have several ways of how dialogue can go, depending on the choice you make. Like, several branches of possible actions.

Now we decided to localize it, and faced with that it's very difficult for translators to translate lines without a context (because without looking at this scheme sometimes it's difficult to understand where sentences belong to).

To make everyone's life easier, we were thinking, is it possible somehow export these schemes to mindmaps (e.g. Miro). Or if you are also faced with such a problem, how did you solve it?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi,

Here are some options:

- In the Dialogue Editor, set the node width wider. Then maximize the window and take a screenshot.

- Or use RelationsInspector. It has Dialogue System integration:

- Or use Chat Mapper. You can export your database to Chat Mapper XML format, import it into Chat Mapper, and export conversations from Chat Mapper as PNG, JPEG, or PDF images.

- Or export CSV and use a node-mapping tool. Several years ago, another Dialogue System user used CytoScape to generate some graphs similar to what you're looking for.
