So, I have looked up the text files. It seems the most of texts in the current patch were translated by google translator... and that was the reason why I couldn't find any korean during playing the game.
(maybe) All of basic informations like items, equips, chapter name were translated as well. Graphics were pretty much done, but seems not all.
The comment at here says that lastest SVN were stopped at half of the Warrior Ch.2, but don't know if they were translated correctly.

Edit: Text files are encoded in Unicode. The ratio of valid txt files is 300/457. Others are 2-byted empty files.

Edit2: What the page is for?

Translating basic information was done by the old crew: only few errors are remained. So we don't need to translate them twice. For graphic files, I don't even know where the files are, so I can't tell you anything.
But we still have 15121 lines of scenario texts total. I don't think it would be done within a short time. So sad that there are very few people here who are able to translate them...

IIRC it's on a github somewhere.

All that truly remained was just to make sense of the google translated things + formatting. If you can somehow contact either Tehskullz or ron975 i'm sure they'll be able to give you the access needed and whatnot.

It would be cool if someone at least make an AP patch for the 0.04redsnail version, to prevent the save troubles and the crashes.

Hello fellow time travelers!

If you were like me, and stumbled upon this historical thread trying to look for an English Maplestory version, follow along.


Currently in 2021, there is NO working english translation for Maplestory DS version (actual english edited version, not machine translation).


I have made a version using a chinese translated rom and put in ALL useable english text from the previously abandoned projects.

I recommend this to anyone who wants a working rom with objectives laid out in english, without having to sit through paragraphs of machine translated story. This also can be for people who knows chinese, but used to play MapleStory PC in english and won't recognise the chinese names. The story is well written with some amusing scenes.

    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.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think they want to take more focus away from their gpus
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    AI assisted game creation might become a thing
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At least that's something I think would be pretty cool.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Don some VR glasses and gloves and talk to the computer and paint entire worlds

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Many TBs of assets and the programming of something like that is going to be tough but I think it's something we might see in 20 years maybe sooner
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    before that there was one to generate a fully modeled scene from a 2D image

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but most recently, there was one that actually generates a working unity scene with terrain and textures already set up that you can import right into unity, that's a huge time saver right there

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and using LLMs to generate NPC dialogue and even dynamically generated quests is something i'm sure is already happening

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    will just take some time for games made using those things to be completed and released
