This game looks great=) Good luck with your transation. It's a pity that I can't help=(
I don't think Atelier Annie did very well. Two more games came after that, Atelier Lina and Rise, that were also not localized then came along Nora to Toki no Koubou afterwards. All games are very similar so...Atlus and Gust? How come it wasn't translated officialy?
Have you tried modifying a furniture item name without changing the length? It's possible that there are additional pointers to the names that need to be updated if they get moved around.Apparently I cannot change the name of the furniture and stuff in Nora's room, or else the furniture does not appear. Not exactly sure why, but apparently the game is checking for the Japanese names at some point.
In crystaltile2, Tools -> NDS File System -> right click on the overlay file -> Extract. To reinsert it, select Compression on the same menu.DarthNemesis, how did you extract the overlay9_0004.bin file?
Ah, I was loading a saved game. Interesting, the furniture is missing with only the modified item.dat, but it appears correctly when both item.dat and overlay9_0004.bin are modified. That overlay must be what sets up the initial room layout for a new game.And about the bug: The furniture (Table, Shelf, ...) does not appear in the beginning of the game. If I load a savegame with changed names of items that were already there before, they don't disappear. Could you start a new game and check if the table appears when the name is not テーブル?
