Many japanese PSP games have no English version.

I would like to know if translations of PSP games exist.
There is a topic for DS games, but I did not find a topic for PSP games.

I would like to see translations for some games.
Valkyria Chronicles 3
Final Fantasy Type-0
Grand Knights Story
Genso Suikoden: Tsumugareshi Hyakunen no Toki

And the squels of The Legend of Heroes and Trails in the Sky.
Eiyū Densetsu: Sora no Kiseki Second Chapter
Eiyū Densetsu: Sora no Kiseki the 3rd
Eiyū Densetsu: Zero no Kiseki
Eiyū Densetsu: Ao no Kiseki

VC:3 and Digimon World: Redigitize translations are the only ones I'm aware of. Frankly is sucks that the PSP translation scene is non-existent compared to the DS Translation scene. I guess it's like that because of the lack of editing tools for PSP UMDs, difficulty setting up hacking teams together, too time consuming, and not enough local fan base to justify translating them.

The whole translation scene is awful when games that already exist in English on other platforms don't just get the script copied in. Take La Pucelle Tactics (PS2) and La Pucelle Ragnarok (PSP). Probably about 90% of the translation is available in the script files from the PS2 game and yet due to unpacking, repacking and location issues nothing gets attempted.

Although there are some pretty competent hackers working the PSP ( http://skybladecloud.wordpress.com/miscellany-2/tales-of-destiny-2-psp-compression-system/ ) as others said they are few and far between.

As you asked for a list the following might help you start out your search
http://akatranslations.wikispaces.com/PSP+Translations

Likewise I am not sure what goes in China- DS translation is huge (way bigger than any English "scene" for any console) and I see the odd thing happening there but I have never really looked into it properly.

hey if you are willing to look through the chinese boards there are quite a number of projects on the go. As to tools - there is enough to get you where you need to go.
if you can follow the chinese guides you will not have a problem.
the thing is though I never did 7th dragon for the psp. just the ds. I only stopper due to legal interference.
Oh and elminage 2 for the psp can be done. a lot of the text is in semi packed (as in a container file with) csv files in it. Image wise I haven't really taken a look... as I was hoping to get more of the ds version done first.

Just like elminage gothic... From a quick look not a big deal to work. same thing container files...
seriously same principles apply from all the other systems hacking... I don't see why there has to be a big deal over this.

As should have been completely obvious from the rest of that message, it was a typo for La Pucelle Ragnarok. Why would i be comparing the English script from one game to a completely different one on the PSP?

okay slight update I have done some work on Elminage 2 graphically and text wise. Oh and a patch for elminage original is very do-able. (in fact not that far away actually). the down side to this is that I can only test via emulator - my psp is giving me trouble with testing...
As in I can do graphics easy and up to a certain point for the fix with elminage orig... but that is it. I am tempted to look into other games but with all the other crap I am doing It would not be a good idea...
like ore no dungeon... easy to find text fairly little graphic work... sigh...

I would like to see the PSP port of Clannad FV translated to English. I know the PC version has been translated but visual novels to me seem like something that should on a portable console.

Yeah, I know :( I would LIKE to see it done, but I don't expect it to be done.
Tbh I've looked into it... but the english letters l o o k l i k e t h i s when edited and it isn't easy to fit the strings on the screen without some extra coding.
I'd love to see it done as well.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
