Sunday! The first of many sunday updates is due!

Note: If you're using internal mode, please turn off the hardware cursor found in GameTranslate's General configuration tab. A bug sadly crept into the build at the last minute and this won't be fixed for the demo version until next Sunday

At last, Arabic is properly supported

• Users can now enjoy using RapidOCR when translating with Arabic as the source language
• Arabic is now rendered as Right-To-Left instead of Left-To-Right
• Arabic letters are now connected in cursive style instead of being separately rendered

If you know Arabic, please do not hesitate to leave feedback. It is what is needed for improvements to be made, as I unfortunately know extremely little about the language.

Thank you, mfilv!

Quality of Life update for automatic mode

Using the automatic window mode was... clunky, to say the least. As of 0.4.3, using it is a breeze. You can now press both the normal hotkeys as well as the fast key hotkey to select areas to translate with the automatic mode.

Thank you, idlt!

Automatic mode text removal improvements

The automatic mode's text removal algorithm was quite frankly absolutely terrible. While it did successfully remove the text, it also created massive distortions in the image, completely breaking the immersion and making it harder to read the text. This has been vastly improved in 0.4.3, and will be even better in 0.4.4

Thank you for the kick on the butt for this one, idlt!

Font size normalizing

All fonts do not contain the exact same size internally, thus, we've had problems with our automatic font sizing functionality giving us inconsistent sizes between different languages. It was a bit of a headache with Arabic especially, since it would be less than 2/3 the size of the Latin font. This has now been fixed. All fonts used with GameTranslate will automatically be normalized to the same base size, resulting in much more even font size output.
