as in putting the english script on the japanese rom? its a case by case thing. we coudnt find how the audio playback length was stored in the files but eventually managed to find the text length variable. most undubs are using the english rom. that said i had heard some voice had been removed from some cutscenes on english so those probably woudnt have played at all had the english rom been used. some games get content censored so it also makes sense to use the uncensored version.

Turns out the harvest report is a bug in the US translation, they repeat the variable calls <var0> <var1> in the text instead of doing 1-4 like the jp version.

havnt had a chance to update it yet though =/

Maybe this has been reported before, but anyway. I figured that if your farm's name is 6 characters, it gets stuck with the word "Farm":

The names of the soldiers who guard the town are also stuck together:

Thats because the game randomizes npc names with two word lists, and the farm just tacks on "farm" to it. Might be possibly to separate manually adding a space before every second word. Theres no space in the japanese version since they are just kanji/kana toguether.

Anyway we can have a patch where it keeps the dub (I love the dub so much!) and just have it to where same sex marriages can occur? Thanks.

Well its already posted elsewhere. Ill need to see how to make an xdelta for a folder tree...

Mainly wanted to make people aware and give credit. ill just make a post here in the meantime. dl link is removed. youll have to find it elsewhere sorry :x


"[Release] Rune Factory 4 Undub

Well this is finally done. Many thanks to seikur0 (who spent hours working on this and thought of how to fix the text issue) and homuhomu (for their countless hours attempting to get this done and assistance throughout the process).

Also thanks to the rephrasers Sirius64 and tombol whos time and earnest effort to getting this released helped things keep going when it was bleak and made it possible. Also Tomato Juice for volunteering =o

And the rest folk from the working thread, many whom looked at it and posted information that helped me get where I needed.

If you are going to use seikur0's save editor, the save for this rom is 0004000000766600.sav

This game accepts saves from both the english version and japanese version and other built roms through manipulating the folders made by savedatafiler. Once extracted the save to the savedatafiler folder in the sd card, you can move the rfa.sav, rf4b.sav, rf4c.sav and rf4s.sav to the savedatafiler folder extracted from the save of the destination rom and overwrite the files there. Then reimport the save to the new rom. You will probably have to do the thing with 000400000FF40A00.sav to avoid the ctr broken error in savedatafiler with gateway.

I have another version that saves faster, but its larger and you have to do the method above to preserve files in case the undub gets updated. I can post it if folk are interested.

Im also tinkering with a Genderswap, version that modifies the dialogue to match using the save editor to give yourself the extra orders to change your sprite early. Still in process. Takes me a full day to upload this stuff so I'll upload if theres interest. (otherwise ill just use it for myself :x)"

I have luma and a dubbed version installed, can I add your undub to my game or is it a stand alone for citra only?

Im checking this thread afte ra long ime, to be honest i sorta understood those words separately but not toguether. The undub i made was to work on an actual handheld. Emulators didnt really work back then and I havnt tried them out yet. The thing i was using to boot into custom firmware died and I havnt touched the 3ds since...

I had a version I never got t o release (that just fixed the npc bug that came on the original release that just repeated the prediction instead of giving you two days properly. On the dialogue script it was doing like %1 and %1 instead of like %1 and %2 to call two different internal variables. ) I dont know if i ever built the release but never uploaded it, or if i never built it (and i dont remember how, though i still have all the files). Though i remember testing it ingame and it worked.

I really enjoy this work @scrangos please, make it the various versions (genderswap, the updated ones etc) available again (maybe even DMs or using decode64), thank you! I'm working on archiving any wonderful patch for 3ds.
