Main Usage
- Chinese fonts are needed. My recommendation is Noto, which is free.
- Text Mesh Pro is compulsory.
- [Optional] If you want to generate a new Chinese dictionary:
- A Chinese word list under the Python directory, named wordfreq.txt, formatted as [Chinese word]t[frequency].
- pip install pinyin and run cn_parser.py.
- Open Unity Editor, click Tools > Construct Py Prefab to open the generator, input the Chinese word list and hash txt path, and click generate to get the prefab.
- For example, if the list you generated is AssetsWPinyinDictionaryPinyinWords-words.json, then input AssetsWPinyinDictionaryPinyinWords.
- You can also select how many words you need in the list. The words will be selected based on frequency, with high-frequency words having higher priorities.
- Open the KeyBoard prefab, drag the word prefab you just generated onto the pyCode field.
- [Optional] If you want to generate a new English word dictionary:
- An English word list under the Python directory, named en_freq.txt, with a title in the first line, formatted as [Word]t[PoS]t[Freq].
- Run en_parser.py.
Code Usage
- To set the target input field: KeyBoardManager.SetTargetField(TMP_InputField target).
