VketLanguageSwitcher

Overview

This Prefab can switch the venue world's language settings. (This is used to switch between displaying English and Japanese.)

When the display language is English, objects registered to En Switch Objects will be shown, while those in Jp Switch Objects will be hidden. When set to Japanese, the behavior is reversed.

This language switch affects all other exhibits, allowing the entire world to be toggled between English and Japanese. The language switch applies locally and will not synchronize with other players.

How to Use

Setup the Prefab

Select the Prefab's "Generate and Configure Prefab" button in the VketTools VketPrefab list. Follow the instructions in VketTools to set up the Prefab.

Configuring VketLanguageSwitcher

4. Designate objects to be toggled by language

   Place the objects under the Visual object, and add them to either Jp Switch Objects or En Switch Objects list in the Inspector. Multiple objects can be configured by selecting + or editing the list size value.
   • Jp Switch Objects: Register objects to be shown when the language is Japanese.
   • En Switch Objects: Register objects to be shown when the language is English.

   !IMPORTANTInitial State Settings in Unity If the Active/Inactive settings of GameObjects are not correct, it may lead to unintended visual behavior when entering the world, such as objects not appearing in the intended language or overlapping with each other. In addition to the VketTools settings, please ensure the following states in Unity:

   • Japanese Objects: Active (ON)
   • English Objects: Inactive (OFF)
