Cid to Chocobo no Fushigi na Dungeon TWnMDS+ Translation

For those who have issues with freezing, I honestly don't know what might be the problem. I never had any (I tried to recreate the scenarios I've been told) and nothing.
Also, I'm not touching any actual game code, just translating lines and if I ever mess up a line, two things can happen; either the bottom bar disappears and the menu acts buggy (but doesn't freeze) until you exit and open it again; or if I actually modify a game line, the game would just refuse to run at all (happened once).
Still, send any issues, I'll see if I can find something.

Also, if you think you've found a typo, check. If the word is written entirely (Memories as opposed to, say, Memries), then it is probably a typo. If it's a letter missing, then I probably just didn't have enough space to fit it. XD

Here's what's translated PROGRESS: 95% (aprox.)

• Item Names: ALL items names are now translated. DONE
• Item's Short Description: These show when you highlight the item. DONE
• Item's Full Description: These appear when you analyze an item. I decided not to translate Cid's Gears and Coats along with Key Items, don't ask. DONE
• Jobs & Skills: The job skills names and descriptions. DONE
• Combat Log: Almost all done. Missing 4 entries I have never ran across. Pretty much done
• Enemy Names: Just like it reads, the names of all enemies. DONE
• Enemy Skills: Now you can see what they do too! DONE
• Traps & Dungeon Names: You know what these do. DONE
• Trial Dungeons: These are the ones you use L+R to go into when near someone that use weird rules and stuff. DONE
• Menus & System Dialogues: Pretty much every menu label is done (such as Item, Ability, Key Items, etc.). I've given up with the shopkeeper's dialogue. There's like 1398741 strings for each shopkeeper with the exact same intro, and other things... 'sides, I think they aren't needed... >_>

Big thanks to jjjewel and DarthNemesis for their help. Without them, I might have never been able to get into some files and none of this would've been possible.

Here are a few simple screenshots showing part of the progress that I have:

i was just thinking... this game is the DS version of Final Fantasy Fables Chocobo's Dungeon right? wouldnt most stuff from Wii version be accurately correct in the DS version? if so couldnt the DS version be translated similar to the Wii version?

umm not to be a naysayers so please don't kill me for saying this...
if you wanted to translate a chocobo game you could have picked chocobo fable 2
and if you wanted to translate a roguelike you could have picked shiren 4
this seems somewhat rendudant when there is the wii version easily avaiable

Simple.

1) Not everyone owns a Wii (case one, me). Yes, you might say not everyone owns a DS either but you can at least emulate it.
2) Chocobo to Mahou no Ehon (Chocobo Tales, basically-- and it's sequel if you will) is a whole different concept. One that, while I enjoyed the first one a bit, is not really my cup of tea.
3) If I wanted to translate a Furai no Shiren game, I would have done that, but... I don't, not a fan of them.
4) Not that I intend to translate the storyline since it's a bit out of my league, but this also includes gameplay from Cid's viewpoint (including his own dungeons and stuff), so there's a second "game" in it as well. Two-for-one combo package~!
5) This is an enhanced version of the Wii version, and, it's portable. What more can I say?
6) Because I can, want, and it's a good practice run for my short knowledge of Japanese. =3

And yes, it's similar to the Wii version, being an enhanced port of it, but I can't really just go and blatantly copy that translation (even if I wanted, there wouldn't be enough space for the text unless I actually learn how to use pointers).

So... That's about it. =3

i have the wii version this game is awesome i wish u luck translating this

Wish u luck translating this

I can totally agree, with the DS version being so compact and all, probably not everything the characters say might fit in the dialog box. also good luck on the project. you got my full support!
the Final Fantasy Fables series was always my favorite because of how cute Chocobo looks. ^.^

Isn't it, in english "forgotten time labyrinths" instead of "time forgotten labyrinths"?

But anyway, good luck on this. If you need any help with grammar and such, lemme know.

Yeah, that might be true.

Wish you luck with this project. This is one of my favorite game in wii.

sorrry but the story you don't do it? wish w/ the project ,and more wish if it have story =))

Can't wait for this patch to be released! This looks like a game that doesnt rely too heavily on story, so it'll be fun to play

I hope you release a partially done patch or something, would be cool.

zOMG, patch release bump. =3
