Hacking God Eater 2 Translation (Looking for translators!)

[Atlas_Noire]

I asked the question because I had a conversation about how great are the new musics in Rage Burst and the other reason is I saw people changing character model in Dissidia 012 and overhaul of Final Fantasy Tactics - War of the Lions

I took some time to listen to some of the soundtracks in Rage Burst and they are awesome, especially the ending theme. It would be possible, if only the files aren't too encrypted. It's hard enough as it is modding a PSP rom so let's just stay on translating the game.

BTW, off topic: Now that Namco has announced God Eater Resurrection this fall 2015 makes it a good reason for me to buy a vita. Dunno which system it will come out though.

Hey guys, I just found this project. I'm on summer vacations and I was just searching for any translation projects for psp games, and suddenly I find this gem right here. Thank you so much Coldbird and the rest of the team, you guys are heroes!

Little question (maybe silly too)
Can you guys hack in GE2RB musics to GE2?

It should be possible, since God Eater 2 soundtracks are stored as Atrac3(+?): Coldbird's repacker should be able to replace the musics.
Anyways, once the translation project is finished, the tools will be released. So people should be able to customize God Eater 2 (replace models, etc.)

Replace models? oh my that's interesting :3

I read that the translators are busy, and since it's this time of the year i'm guessing that it might be because of exams/finals?
If so, I wish you luck with those. I'm finally done with mine.
If not, well, good luck with whatever it is that is keeping you busy!
I'm thinking of maybe start learning japanese, or at least try to see if I can, so that in the future I can be of some help with projects like this one instead of just cheering, and "stalking" the threads.
Again, I wish to thank everyone working on this. I can't afford to buy a console or PC (mine is complete crap) in probably the next year or so, so my PSP is my salvation. and even if you guys aren't finished by then, it still is projects like this that give me hope. So when I say it I really mean it: People like you guys really mean alot to me and THANK YOU ALL!

My previous comment turned out to be way bigger than I innitially intended. It's a bad habit of mine on and off the internet.
btw, sorry to ask unrelated stuff to the roject, but does anyone have any advice on how I should go about learning japanese? I'm confident on the speaking part, but the writing scares me.
Also, if the point in learning, is just for gaming related stuff, will learning kanji suffice? Thanks in advance.

For the most part, I mainly use Tae Kim's guide to Japanese grammar. Very good to use when learning about everything from basic Japanese like kana, proper grammar and sentence structure. As for kanji, well you're gonna have to look elsewhere since I don't know many resources like books that teaches it. Even better if you have a friend who is very fluent in Japanese and have them teach it to you.

Thank you. I just tought that they used only kanji in games, but according to something I read just now, they use a mix of kanji AND kana?
This leaves me a bit confused but I'll be using the link you posted, and I should be fine. And again, thanks.

Been avid follower since ge1. tested the first one w/ xlink aid to work on xlink kai. I think I reported some problems lol. thats way back long ago. time sure flies. I could do the same if opportunity shows up.

I have question
How about the the added contents or DLC. Can we still use them after the iso is translated? The contents I mean are the ones downloaded on the internet not in the PSN.

i have been DYING TO PLAY GE2!! i loved god eater burst, i brought it twice, once for psp and digitally for Vita. Best of luck on translation.

 

[Valkemiere]

Modding the game itself is good idea but how about "We Creat our own DLC" which is contains mod texture/model of a costume or a weapon so that even without DLC can be able to view your created mod texture/model just like they mod the

Dissidia 012: Duodecim Final Fantasy


GEB 1.6 DLC Japan version(not the US version) has many DLC costume which is can view-able to those GEB Japan version player even with or without DLC

Will you guys launch partial patches and then update or only when it's done?
I'd really love a menu patch! Though, of course, I understand if you choose not too. (Not like I could do anything about it if I didn't... ... ... ... ...Or could I???! Dum, DUM, D U U U U M !)

I don't think they will be releasing menu patches, it will be a full patch
who knows they might surprise up

 

[Atlas_Noire]

I think it's much more better to just wait for the patch to come out when it's done, rather than continually asking for when will it be released.

You got a good point there. Didn't think of that, but I guess that's what would happen if they did launch partial patches...
Maybe just the ONE menus patch and then the complete one?
Anyway, I myself doubt the team would choose to do that, I just had some hope. But I can wait. And how different can the Menus be from Burst (the first one) anyway? Maybe just the blood arts thing, but there must be guides, right?

Translating stuff that people always get stuck on like story progress, Character Episode is kinda good but hey, thats my opinion

 

[cybercjt]

I suggest that they should make a minor menu/items etc. patch so that many more people will be informed and spread this to others. And hopefully will give the translation team a boost on motivation to translate the game more. :3

Although that's just me though, what do you guys think?
