@deathkill781 I wanna help out, but I don't know japanese. I'm willing to pay a translator to translate the rest of the pending text. Do you think that's the difficult part? From what I understood, with the tool you provided it's just a matter of deleting the current japanese text and copy-pasting the respective translation, right? Please let me know your thoughts on this. Thanks!!
Well, I wouldn't want you to waste any money on this project really! You can easily just cross reference it with the manga and see the translation, we'll at least for the non-what if episodes. I'd say that it's too much effort and a waste of money to pay for translating this really😅. After all, all I need is time, nothing more nothing less.

Haha no worries, a translation shouldn't be too expensive, at least on Fiverr I see a girl that translates 500 words for 4.61€. How many words do you think are left to translate (aprox)?

Honestly, not a clue. I've only ever extracted the whole script once, and that was to give it to the translator that I work with. (if you think the problem is lack of a translator, I assure that is not the case) I never really looked into how many words it was. All I know is that it's most probably a lot. Like definitely more than 500😅

Haha I don't know, I'm willing to invest in this project. I've recently moved in to my new house with my wife, so my time is limited for the next week or two, but I'll try to investigate :) thanks for the info!

Well congrats on the move! I genuinely don't think this project needs an "investment", (especially if it's not coming back to me, lol. Jk jk) because all the work is practically done. If money can buy time, I would've spent it already lol. Also, please don't waste your money on this, especially considering you just moved, and I know how expensive that can be😅. Anyways, love that you're this dedicated to this, it means a lot to me to see people appreciate the work that has been done on this over the past year! All the love to y'all!

Thanks :D haha oh well, I'll still hit you up when I'm finally free of all the hassle, I'd like to help out in some way. Best of luck with your finals!

YOOOOO AMAZING BOX ART MAN!!! And for the abridged dub, it definitely is something that crossed my mind, but in order to implement it correctly, I'd have to know how the scenes are created so I can modify the cutscenes properly to fit the abridged narrative, but it's definitely something I'd think of doing! If not the story, at least the voices!

what i meant is just funny dialogue not fully altered cutscenes. for example, that whole confrontation between goku and vegeta before the galick gun having the hilarious dialog between KaiserNeko and Lanipater instead of ghost nappa popping in and out of vegeta's head.
 
Help me please..
The newest version of the patch (12.26) does not work on the real DS Lite.

All previous versions worked perfectly.
The DS has a clone R4 card, the firmware is Wood 1.62.

I suspect that the matter is in those manipulations, due to which the size of the patch (and the patched ROM) doubled.

Precisely. This means that the ds technically as a rom can no longer support it. That's why you'll have to install twilightmenu++. Sorry for the inconvenience!
 
wait, so, this is no longer supported on og hardware (DS/DSlite)?
No it is, but you'll have to install twilightmenu++ for it to work. It won't work on a regular r4 sadly, since the arm9 is now unpacked

bummer.
Post automatically merged:

will there be a point where the patch is too big to fit on a rom? deeming it unplayable on any system?
Shouldn't be. The big change that needed to happen happened. Nothing that would change the size of the game in a substantial sense should occur now.

Once you've managed to complete the rest of the story translation I will help with the English audio conversion. These are two very old videos I made over a decade ago. It saddens me to see the state of the modern games not to include the movie scenes and yet here we have this much effort applied over a 64 mb NDS title:
