Taiwu Interaction Framework(English Localization Updated)

Taiwu Interaction Framework (TIF) – Official Release

Author: Umbrella
Game: The Scroll of Taiwu
Mod Version: 1.0.1
Supported Game Version: 1.0.20

After the latest official game update, the English version has a localization / name-generation issue.

The game show internal text keys such as SurName_617, SurName_1005, Desc_xxx, or similar fields instead of proper names or descriptions.

I have checked the files and the in-game behavior. The cause is in the official English localization / name-generation data: many surname keys are not being correctly resolved into English display names.

Verifying the game files does not fix the issue, because Steam restores the current official files, and the current official English files contain this problem.

I have released a small temporary English name-fix patch mod:

[HOTFIX LINK HERE]

Please subscribe to the hotfix patch and restart the game.

This hotfix is display-only. It does not write save data, does not modify official game files, does not modify game DLLs, and does not depend on Taiwu Interaction Framework.

After the official English localization issue is fixed, you can disable or remove the hotfix patch.

If you still see SurName_xxx, Desc_xxx, or other internal text keys after using the patch, please report where you saw them. This will help me cover more cases.

Thank you for your patience and support.

Taiwu Interaction Framework is a prerequisite framework mod focused on front-end UI interaction enhancement.

It mainly solves one problem:

Important information in Monthly Reports should not just be passing text that players have to memorize. It should be something you can inspect, hover over, pin, click, and follow.

For example:

You receive a marriage inquiry letter, stare at the names for a while, and still cannot remember who is asking about whom, or who the marriage target is.

Then the game gives you four options. You freeze for a moment, try to remember everything in your head, and finally click one…

Situations like this should happen much less often now.

This is the official release of the framework. Feel free to use it, and please report any issues you encounter.

• Monthly Report event tooltips can be delayed and pinned. After being pinned, you can move the mouse onto the panel and keep reading without it disappearing immediately.
• Pinned panels block interactions with underlying event icons, so dense Monthly Report icons will not repeatedly interrupt your reading.
• Character names in Monthly Reports, letters, events, and dialogue text can be detected as interactive text.
• Hovering over a character name can show the character’s portrait, gender, age, stance, affiliation, identity, ID, and other basic information.
• Dead characters can also be previewed, so you do not only see a name without knowing who it was.
• Clicking an available character name can open the corresponding character interface.
• Detected Martial Arts and items in text can show independent preview information.
• Martial Arts and items show tier colors and basic category information.
• Book items distinguish between Martial Art books and Skill books.
• Marriage letters, event choices, and character dialogue no longer have to rely entirely on player memory. Related characters, Martial Arts, and items can be checked directly.

• Supports Chinese and English display.
• Uses Chinese when the game language is Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese.
• Uses English when the game language is English or Korean.
• Mod settings also follow the current game language.

1. Open the Monthly Report.
2. Move your mouse onto an event block.
3. Wait for the yellow circle on the UI to finish rotating.
4. Move your mouse to the new UI panel. It will not disappear.
5. If you are interested in a character, click the character name to open the character interface.
6. If you find this useful, feel free to come back and leave a like.

Thank you for the like >.<

PS: This is not only a hover window. If you are interested in a character and want to check more information, do not hesitate to click. There may be a surprise.

• Fixed an issue where Monthly Report tooltips could still be triggered behind the Pending Events window.
• Improved foreground UI detection for TIF Monthly Report tooltips. Background events will no longer respond when covered by a higher-level UI window.
• Improved interaction isolation between Monthly Report tooltips and Pending Event, letter, and event pop-up windows.

• Monthly Report enhancement.
• Character information enhancement.
• Letter, event, and dialogue text enhancement.
• Martial Art and item previews.
• Chinese and English language support.
• Safety and compatibility cleanup.

See the change notes for details.

• English support.
• UI display adjustments.
• Martial Art and item preview optimization.
• Compatibility update.
• Version maintenance update.

The current version mainly takes over front-end UI display and interaction. It does not write custom world data into the save file.

• Does not create new characters.
• Does not create new items.
• Does not create new Martial Arts.
• Does not write custom event data.
• Does not save TIF’s own world data into the save file.
• After disabling or uninstalling the mod, the main effect should be losing the UI enhancement features. In theory, it should not damage the save structure.

Different mod combinations may behave differently, so backing up your save before updating or uninstalling is still recommended.

This mod may conflict with the following types of mods:

• Mods that heavily change the Monthly Report interface.
• Mods that change character-name hover tooltips.
• Mods that change character jump logic.
• Mods that take over the same UI layers.

TIF provides a global toggle, so the whole framework can be enabled or disabled.

Patch mounting has been isolated as much as possible. If a small feature fails, it should not directly bring down the entire framework.

In theory, it should be compatible with UI adjustment or optimization mods that do not touch the areas listed above.
