Ren'Py Dialogue Extractor

Ren'Py Dialogue Extractor

Hey there! Here's a simple tool to help you get that dialogue out of your game! Maybe you want to send it to a friend for proofreading, or just need to check a word count – whatever it is, this little app can help.

So, what can it do?

• One File At Time - Just want to export a single script? Yep, you can totally do that. No need to process the whole project if you don't want to.
• Handle Your Whole Project - Got a bunch of .rpy files? No problem. Just point the tool at your game folder, and it'll chew through every script file, giving you a clean output for each one.
• Export How You Want - Choose your format! Export your dialogue as a spreadsheet-friendly .csv file or a simple .txt file—whichever works best for you.
• Export Options for .CSV - Get detailed with your .csv file. You can choose to include useful info like the original File Name, the Line Number, the Character, and the Dialogue itself.
• Script Stats/Analysis - Curious about your script? The tool generates a separate analysis file with fun details, like total word and line counts, which character had the most lines, and a list of the most-used words in your script.
• Simple and Smart - It’s built to be smart so you don’t have to worry. It automatically ignores files like options.rpy and screens.rpy (and you can add more to the ignore list!). Oh, and it also dives into subfolders to find all your scripts.

I'm also planning on adding a feature to re-import the files but that takes a bit of testing.

This is a fan project made to help me out, but packed it and wanted to share it with all of you. I hope it helps you spend less time wrestling with files and more time creating amazing stories.

Any feedback is welcome, or if you have suggestions!
