Translation [ENG] Lord of Apocalypse

[call me Ken or Accel]

The case for this game is (probably) bad coding by the devs

Well done

 

[Serberker]

The project is not dead, I'm still active here on GBAtemp.
This hobby has lost some priority points because i'll graduate soon.

I'm working on a small webpage, where everyone can view, edit, suggest new translations.
I will review these, and will create a patch when the changes are meaningful enough.

This should be easier to manage than google drive

There wasnt any translation since last release, if anyone was wondering.

I have an interesting info to share, it seems that this patched game works on the PS3. My brother and I tested it last night, although it didn't work to play multiplayer with the PSP.

Edit: Sorry, I forgot to tell, the game slows down a little when battling in the open, also the life bar does not have any color or animation or whatever, you have to pay attention on the numbers. Plus a few graphics issues that does not affect gameplay, boss battle and quick-time events plays just fine.

Yep, I have CFW in it.

Did you tried with other games? Or it is just Lord of Apocalypse can be played on PS3?

I did tried a few games, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and Portable 3rd can be played normally and multiplayer either with 2 PS3 and with the PSP, and any of these combinations (I have 2 PSPs and 1 PS3, my brother has 1 PS3), I have tried these with the android emulator but didn't work with anything. I also tried Initial D, but it has issues on PS3 and I didn't try multiplayer, also tried Tales of the World Radiant Mythology and I don't remember what others I have tested. But I have about 350 PSP games, so I can check anytime.
Also you can check this list to know which one works on a PS3, although some are not listed and some may still works somehow: https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/PSP_Emulator_Compatibility_List

Hmm, interesting read. I assume you already tried manually fixing the ad-hoc (I saw that in Phantasy Star Portable 2)? Or Im just talking nonsense
Funnily enough, Ace Combat Joint Assault also has the same problem on PPSSPP if you didnt set the I/O Timing Method to 'Host' lol

Actually I just tried the games in .iso file, the only one I have converted is MHFU, since there are some different fixes and I don't know how to proper use them nor I know what they are, I just don't try anything. Well, in the compatibility list there are some fixes which requires some decrypting and other stuff which I quite don't understand much so I just leave them be.

@Serberker @call me Ken or Accel You are going to translate everything at some point?I played this game in japanese but it would be very cool if you guys complete this patch with all the story dialogues translated as well and finishing translating the items and equips descriptions or the various things not translated yet.I'm a big fan of this game from back in psp days i even have the first one(Arcana),and this one original cause they deserved to be in my games collection.I saw you didn't post something in long time so i'm wondering if you guys will keep going and i hope so.I've also tested to play it online on PPSSPP and it works just fine,in fact i am playing Arcana again with a friend those days.I hope to see this project going on and finished sooner or later.Would be a waste not finishing it.

Serberker is busy with university at the moment, which kinda getting in the way of finishing a special app that would help with translation. Also, COVID-19 going on right now

Yeah i know,thats why i said 'sooner or later',hope to see good news at some point.

 

[Serberker]

Well I'm down for it, I wont let this project go into a discontinued state.
About the "special" app:
Right now translating in google drive, and keeping track of changes is difficult. So I'm creating a site, where translating is easier and changes are highlighted.
