Hey there gbatemp,
Kuriimu is a suite of programs that I designed to be flexible tools for the purposes of fan translating games, apps, etc... and the flexibility is attained through plugins! (DLL files developed by programmers.)
Want to talk about it?
If you would like to reach out to me to discuss
Kuriimu and/or writing plugins for it, I can be reached most easily on the
Fan Translators Inc. discord (which I run) here:
Hop into the #kuriimu channel and hit me up.
Kuriimu - A text editor.
Kukkii - An image converter.
Karameru - An archive manager.
Releases
Download the most recent beta build
NOTE: Windows is being dumb. To run Kuriimu, you have to unblock the .rar before you extract it for the program to run. Right click > Properties on the .rar and click Unblock on the General tab.
I'm releasing this beta in the hopes that it spurs interest in expanding the capabilities of the program through plugins developed by other programmers:
Current Contributors:
@Neobeo - Code cleanup, enhancements, performance improvements and plugin author.

Current Translation Projects Using Kuriimu:
There may be others I am unaware of.
Current Plugin Types:
- File Plugins - These allow Kuriimu to open, edit, and save various file formats.
- file_kup - A file plugin written by me for the native container format used by Kuriimu and Fenceposts for dumping, editing, and injecting strings from/to executable files.
- file_msbt - An MSBT plugin based on the same code from MSBT Editor Reloaded. Currently, none of the XMSBT or other tools have been ported as I'm still working out how to handle file plugin tools in Kuriimu. Supports a huge number of games!
- file_gmml - A GMML plugin written from scratch for the text file format found in MapleStory 3DS. This plugin came a little late and the team on the project will only be using Kuriimu for any future updates to the translation.
- file_jmsg - A JMSG plugin for the text file format used by One Piece: Super Grand Battle! X and other games.
- file_btxt - An incomplete BTXT plugin for the text file format used by Digimon Universe Appli Monsters and potentially other games. (Read-Only)
- file_ttbin - A text plugin for the Time Travelers 3DS game.
- file_mdt/tdt - A set of two text plugins for MDT and TDT from the Theatrythm line of games.
- file_gmd - An incomplete GMD plugin for Dai Gyakuten Saiban and possibly other games in the series.
- Game Plugins - These allow Kuriimu and Fenceposts to handle control codes and text previews when dealing with strings in a game. (See screenshot for MapleStory 3DS plugin selection.) The preview functionality is used in Kuriimu to display a preview of what the text will look like in-game.
- game_rocket_slime_3ds - A preview plugin written by @IcySon55.
- game_great_detective_pikachu - A preview plugin written by @IcySon55.
- game_maple_story_3ds - A preview plugin co-written by @CakeLancelot @IcySon55 and @Neobeo.
- game_daigasso_band_brothers_p - A preview plugin written by @Neobeo.
- game_miitopia_3ds - A preview plugin written by @PeterPaladin.
- game_time_travelers - A preview plugin written by @onepiecefreak.
- game_theatrythm_final_fantasy - A preview plugin written by @onepiecefreak.
- game_zelda_a_link_between_worlds - A preview plugin written by @Ryuzaki_MrL.
- Image Plugins - Image plugins are loaded by Kukkii and Karameru
- image_bxlim - An image plugin written by @IcySon55 leveraging Cetera which supports BCLIM and BFLIM image files.
- image_tex - An image plugin written by @onepiecefreak which supports generic TEX image files.
- image_jtex - An image plugin written by @onepiecefreak which supports JTEX image files.
- image_xi - An image plugin written by @onepiecefreak which supports Level 5 XI image files.
- image_bclyt - A work-in-progress "image" plugin written @onepiecefreak which visualizes BCLYT files as an image. It supports loading referenced images into the visualization as well. This plugin might become image_bxlyt later on with support added for BFLYT.
- Archive Plugins - Archive plugins are loaded by Karameru for managing archive files.
- Extension Plugins - These are general purpose plugins that require a UI.
- ext_fenceposts - Fenceposts is an extension plugin that manages dumping and injecting strings in executable files such as code.bin. It is currently limited to the Unicode Little-Endian character encoding but that will change soon.
- ext_director - A simple (and incomplete) pointer finding utility. Director used to be part of Kuriimu itself but has been moved to being an extension to segregate the code and make Kuriimu itself less complex.
P.S. You may remember me from the
MSBT Editor Reloaded project, I have now written an
MSBT plugin for
Kuriimu.
Let the craziness begin!
