Hello! I didn't wait for the translation of game with Japanese and started playing. Search of options I understood game a little, but got stuck unfortunately - one quest isn't carried out. Still I can hope for the game translation? There is a strong wish to continue to play it again and again!
I know how you feel skif.
I picked up translating the game a while back (thanks to
Gryphon and
De1taOnes excellent tools) but work just kept getting in the way till i eventually stopped. during these Xmas holidays i have started again (from square one unfortunately) and have translated up to the "guild quest tutorial" to the buffalo farm. many of the mercenary lines and various top screen text has been translated into compensable text but there's a lot more left.
If i had to guess i am about 10% or so done... didn't think it would take long when i started, although when comparing various translations from the original Japanese and rewriting to make sense and continually trial testing it all adds up.
(Although notepad++ has helped a lot with bookmarking translated lines as i go to keep track, easy comparing between machine translated and Japanese text and repeating text replace)
I'll post what i have now but it would only make sense till the "hire a mercenary form the guild" part, after that its just machine translation which is hit & wide miss.
The problems i'm facing at the moment:
I am having a problem regarding my R4-SDHC card, is anyone able to save when playing even the original on the DS with a card like r4, r4i, ect?.
i thought it might be an issue with the edited game but i run tests through an emulator alot and its fine, I've patched with Arm7 to see if that works and i eventually tried an original japanese copy and nothing. it says in game that it's saving and when i reload... nothing, start a new game.
(when playing on the R4 when it will make a save file if none is present and all other games save correctly)
Market tutorial:
I noticed while running through the market tutorial you require Leather to make a Dirk(dagger) and you are forced to by iron instead. not sure if anyone else has this issue, maybe i messed with something.
Names, places, ect:
still having issues locating npc names, city names, ect. not an important issue since id rather focus on dialogue and story first.
