Can someone explain to me how to get the voice files off my Zero no Kiseki Evolution game? I dumped it onto my computer and Im following the steps from https://github.com/ZhenjianYang/SoraVoice/releases but I dont seem to get any data folder by putting the files over PSARC. Any help?
Easy method: use google 09d9f6ea823b76cef0e5d0c6463ccc3186ff187c

Edit: Wow, Google indexed this page really fast.

So I tried to extract some of textures for Ao and Zero from current existing translations and some seem to be damaged in some way and can't be extracted properly. I tried using both FalcomCnvrtr and ITPconverter unsuccesfully.

I assume it's cause these aren't original images and something went wrong during reinsertion process. I just wonder if there is some way to get get the noncorrupted picture.

Try using this https://github.com/Ouroboros/JuusanKoubou/blob/master/Source/Falcom/YamaNeko/YamaNeko.exe?raw=true

drag your ITP file onto it (or pass it as argument)

Is it possible to have both Flame's english patch + the voice patch for Ao no Kiseki on PSP?

Have tried applying voice to an .iso with the Flame patch, totally broke english translations instead. Not sure if I'm goofing something.

The PSP version hasn't been as worked on as the PC version. Use your search engine with 737a3cd068fb16624792c4c7d255e86e4260787b to find the PC version.

You may be able to copy the script files from the PC version into the PSP version, but I cannot guarantee that it will work.

Thanks, will give that a try. Am looking through some of the code of the PSP importing scripts, hoping the headers and offsets are the same for the PC files. Guess I should test it in PPSSPP before putting it in Adrenaline.

Out of curiosity, may I ask why Ao Evo isn't being worked on, considering there are translations + patching tools made for PSP/PC?

Do the Evo games use a different format for voice lines etc. compared to the PSP/PC versions?

The Evo games use a slightly different script format that is incompatible with the existing script tools. It shouldn't take that much effort to update the script tools (EDDecompiler), but no one has done it yet.

I'm looking through the EDDecompiler repo and it really just looks like a whole lot of random hard-coded values. Sorry if this is a silly assumption, but wouldn't you need the game's source code to figure out all this stuff (without an impossible degree of trial-and-error)?

If EvilGoku was able to create a patch for Zero no Kiseki Evolution, I assume he would have to have already made something like this for the Evo format?

I've not done any sort of modding before, but I'd be interested in trying my hand at it if some resources are available to start with.

Also just in case anyone's wondering, I tried patching PC scene files into the PSP version but it crashes as soon as you open any dialogue. For now will probably just use a PC->Vita streaming service with the PC Ao.

The values are found by reverse engineering.
There exists a loader for Vita executables for Ghidra called GhidraVitaLoader.

She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
