[SOLVED] Character name not exporting

Character names do not appear in the CSV. This happens when I set the "Exclude Name Text" variable to true or false. Is this a bug? 

In the source csv I see this for the example line below where "AMELIA" is expected in the CSV line, it's blank.: 

,,They seem to be coming back...,,,,

Oh hi, for MZ, exporting names isn't supported yet. I'll add that to the next update. For now, you can simply enter their names in the CSV file manually to translate them. A bit inconvenience but I'll implement the feature soon. 馃檹

The Exclude Name Text is a feature to exclude every text before the character ":". It's used for cases like:

David: Hello there!

CSV file will only have: "Hello there!" and not "David"

Thank you. I look forward to the update.

Hey Mango! Please update to version 1.2.3. You can now export Names to a separate column. :D

Thank you! I'll check it out shortly. I appreciate your hard work.

Hello, it's really amazing you made plugin that I can translate easily, but I do have a questions:
1) When I start to play the game, does it have a command like selection language for the first time?
2) When I done translation, the csv file will encryption after deploy the game?
3) I don't want to translate the image file, does it necessary to put name picture as translation? For example, I have image called "Clock", and I don't know if it's required to translate the image, like "Clock_jp" (Japanese).

I didn't pay yet, that's the question I want to know.

Hi. I'm gonna answer your questions here.

1. When you start the game, you have the option to add a command to scene title list. It'll be like New game, continue, exit game, language: English. You press ok on Language and it'll switch to another language.

2. The CSV file will be copied to the game folder automatically but it won't encrypt. This is better if you want people to mod your game or translate your game on their own.

3. If you don't want to localize pictures then you can simply not do it. It's optional and not required.
