literally what the HELL does gideon zhi's project status have to do with thisWe don't translate SRW sadly. Gideon Zhi also hasn't finish translating both Alpha and SRW 4 yet so there's not much we can do about it
Tell that to the guy who ask for SRW translation which has nothing to do with this translation project we were doing. The guy is in the wrong thread. If the guy asks for SRW, should have asked for a thread that discusses SRW translation project instead of Zoids unless someone is already working on it. Then again...never mind what I saidliterally what the HELL does gideon zhi's project status have to do with this
can NOT play your game download folder i get messgae foler is either empty, corrupt, can NOT downalod to play game nothing zip fileThought I'd start a new thread since the title of the old one doesn't reflect the fact that progress is actually being made (And I seem to be the only one working on it at the moment). If someone were to google "Zoids Saga DS English translation" and were looking for anything new of substance, this thread will make it easier for them to find.
This project seeks to translate Zoids Saga DS: Legend of Arcadia for the Nintendo DS into English and develop a patch for the game.
So anyway, there are obviously two sides to this project: the translation and the hacking side.
Translation
The script is 100% complete. You can see the script here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1djyMo5SHQfwPf-p5g229hsk_eId-P-R4reVIi_bC5VI/edit?usp=sharing
Battle menu translations:~95%26/05/2022: row ~2500, everything up to first boss fight with Blood
26/05/2022: row ~3000, everything up to the first time machine use
26/05/2022: Added a translation completion % bar for people to refer to (currently 8% complete). Added logic to count the number of bits of Japanese text (16 per character) and number of bits of English text (8 per character) so that I can monitor if my translations take up more memory than the original. Right now I am well within the space requirements. So there should be enough memory to fit the translations!

I don't understand what you are saying, but it works fine, has to be something on your endcan NOT play your game download folder i get messgae foler is either empty, corrupt, can NOT downalod to play game nothing zip file
I don't understand what you are saying, but it works fine, has to be something on your end
I used different computer extract file I patched it rom not showing up on ds I left it as xdelta after I patched it didn’t show up , I put . Rom after xdelta didn’t show up, I delete xdelta and replaced it with .rom nothing showed up.,I don't understand what you are saying, but it works fine, has to be something on your end
I'm getting the same error. I tried patching but it keeps saying the data is corrupt?It was right folder I was downloading I patched rom says xdelta. I put rom in end nothing

I know how to use emulators and roms probably something stupid on my end not showing on ds to play.
Edit I have been downloading trying get another emulator Atari st working play Star Wars arcade I kept thinking rom is in my head I should have been putting nds.
I’m unable to delete this message sorry for inconvenience for stupidity on my end
Cheers, this is placeholder text. Can you post a screenshot of the message? I'll fix it when I get a chanceUsing an evasion-boosting ability while another is in effect causes a garbled text message to pop up, presumably intended to tell you that you're going to override the old effect with the new one. But it's garbled, and unintelligible. Can be duplicated by equipping a smokescreen and an optical camouflage and using them in back-to-back turns. Broke a 18 year silence to post this message.
perfect, I'll change it when I get some free time. There are a few more like this in the game that I also can't properly translate until I find them. The reason I can't is because the top and bottom line are in different places in memory with nothing to suggest they are two parts of the same sentence, so I have no idea what the full sentence is until I see it in-game. Cheers for finding this oneView attachment 327155 This is the message that comes up.
There is an English translation patch for Zoids Saga III (Fuzors). I haven't played it myself, but from what I have seen, it looks like the translations where done in Google Translate by someone and then edited to the best of their ability.Third is yet to be tackled that I am aware of outside of the scenarios in this.
Good job finding that! It's a 20 second fix, I'll post a patch in a bitFirst of all, thanks for your efforts on this translation. That said, there is a minor text error where the word "the" is written twice. The dialogue is at the beginning of the game when they start their attempt to escape the castle. See picture for reference.
I've been fine using cheats such as infinite money with the patched version, I can't speak for other cheats though. Seems weird that it'd only work with the unpatched version since I've only essentially "moved around" bytes of text and not anything gameplay related.Hi i been trying to use cheats on twilight menu with the patched version on my 3ds but am unable to do it. The cheats only work for the unpatched Japanese version. Anyone know how to go aboout it?
