ROM Hack [WIP] Detective Pikachu English Translation

[IcySon55]

The project is ready for work to start. The tools exist, the files are dumped, etc.

What's missing is translators and editors.

I have begun working on translating the script files. I have the common_hud almost completely done. Will try to post progress as I go.

I am already on the discord but thanks

 

[AshleyCummings]

Good luck to everyone involved! Your our only hope it seems, to get this game in English seems Nintendo has no care x.x

Is this still a thing?

 

[IcySon55]

It's still a thing. A thing that is waiting for some interested translators.

I can't help but wonder why this did not get a official localization. I thought it being Pokemon would be enough to at least warrant one, but if i am not mistaken this is no the first time that happens (pokepark for wii, for example).

 

[TheCyberQuake]

Unfortunately I only know English so I'm not of much help, but I hope to see this project come to fruition.

Is there an update still says 0 percent

 

[Joshmas]

There isnt a cryptofixed version of this game floating around anywhere is there, been having trouble finding one.

Progress:
0%

 

[IcySon55]

Not exactly 0%. (I need to update the OP...)

I've been busy working on tools, our open source fan translation toolkit, Kuriimu.

 

[8BitWonder]

This looks like something that'd be fun to put through Google translate.

 

[nitrostemp]

how much script has been translated?

 

[BlueFox gui]

WOW IT'S INCREDIBLE 0% OF PROGRESS NO ONE CAN GO SO FAR LIKE THAT

 

[ShadowOne333]

Nice knowing that this game is getting its translation treatment.
Here's wishing the best of luck to get this finished!

 

[IcySon55]

how much script has been translated?

If translating script was the only hurdle, this would likely be finished earlier.

I don't have an estimate and we're in the middle of finishing up the tools needed to get the ball rolling faster.

In any case, stay tuned.

I was just wondering if there is anyway currently to get the game to work properly(without a black screen) without using HANS.

Using luma, set language emulation to ON, and then:

Create 000400000012DE00.txt in SD:\luma\locales\
The file should contain JPN JP on the first line and that's it.
