Hacking Mahouka Koukou no Retousei: Out of Order Translation

[k7ra]

Okay, I post it here.
This is find by Roah: https://github.com/roahnosh/oniisamaooo
And this master801 kind man add something that would help a lot: https://github.com/master801/Out-of-English/tree/Base-Language
Files easy to edit so far.
I fast translated some names, so if you find "names" that I miss tell me!
Maybe, I would translate pictures later (If I successfully unpack them)
I would not translate this game. If you want you can take it,
I post this here, because no one still done it.

I have this setting on my computer for a while now and before I forget again. Here are the event dialog scripts for OOO. Anyone who wants to translate OOO can use and clone the files.

You can modify everything in the lua script. The lua programming is pretty straightforward and some of the codes are even documented and categorized so if you're having trouble with the text space, don't worry about it. You can have as many space as you needed if modify the lua script.

Ex: call_WinMsg( ID.name, ID.txt, ID.voice, "" );

The rest of the text (menu) are somewhere in the awb files, I think... I'm not sure.

Info:

• Platform: PSVita
• JP Title: 魔法科高校の劣等生 Out of Order (Mahouka Koukou no Retousei - Out of Order)
• EN Title: The Irregular at Magic High School - Out of Order
• Game ID: PCSG00456

Spoiler: How-to-do-it

Simple how-to

• Dump your copy of the game, if mai good, if nonpdrm then you'll have to decrypt the ux0:app/PCSG00456 with VitaShell
• Copy the file ux0:app/PCSG00456/Data/CRIFS/imh.cpk to your computer
• Use CPKTools to unpack the cpk file
• Clone or download repo and paste it in the extracted imh.cpk. Overwrite existing files when asked.
• Once done translating simply repack cpk file with CPKTools. See Build if you're having problems like game having errors upon startup, etc.

Spoiler: Build

Build:

• Data align: 2048
• Coding: UTF-8
• Dir. Mask: false
• ForceCompress: false

Upd. from me:
Yeap, I can edit images files. But for now there nothing interesting to edit
Some text from menu in eboot
Too long text line give black screen in game

Spoiler: sample

Would you like to collaborate?

I've built a tool to extract text from the scripts and tutorial binaries. However, the tool is not publicly available yet due to major changes to the code-base and licensing issues (due to not having an actual license.)

If you want to take a look at what I've been able to extract, I have a GitHub repo available.

Nice work!
I would like to collaborate with anyone who can help make it out
From what Bin/Decoded tutorial binaries files come from? I mean path to them.
Is it: \Graph2D\TuneData\ ?
Does your tool can pack this binaries back?

I would check tutorial files later, thanks for info!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, tested my translated files with names all works so far really great!

Images in .anz format, how convert them I don't know...

My tool is currently able to insert and replace text from the binaries. The only downside is that it doesn't re-create the binaries because I don't want to introduce discrepancies.

The .anz files look like they're containers for the images, not the images itself.

The images are the .dds.phyre files. I was able to extract them by trimming the Phyre header to the "GXT" offset. [A trimmed file would start with "GXT".] Then I used ScarletConvert to convert the GXT images to PNG. I would need to look at how ScarletConvert converts a GXT texture to PNG in order to reverse the process.

I dont check it, because I only test game prologue and training part.
To tell you truth I dont get part of training with jump and slide part to what to do and dont even checks videos about it

Those are built in the eboot. The eboot will have to be edited (or a plugin) in order for those texts to be translated.

Ex:

　と　を同時に押して..強化魔法を発動してください.高速滑走の魔法をセットしていると....回避行動を行うことができます..高速滑走中の近接攻撃を...壁面走行の魔法をセットしていると....　　を押している間は壁面を走れます.壁面を走ってください

Those sentence meaning are :

とを同時に押して.
=> Press both button at the same time .
強化魔法を発動してください.
=> Please Active enhanced magic …
高速滑走の魔法をセットしていると....回避行動を行うことができます.
=> If you have "High Speed Dash" active you can do evasive action (such as evade income attack or attack while dashing)
高速滑走中の近接攻撃を...
=>>Please use melee attack while (during) High Speed Dash …..
壁面走行の魔法をセットしていると....を押している間は壁面を走れます.
=> When you have "Wall Running" active you can dash on wall while pressing (L)
壁面を走ってください
=> Please run on wall

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I don't know if I fixed it or it's already was all working, but here.
All works, story and game all accessible

And yeah, to translate eboot after it's decrypted we need to do hex editing

I'm think about I and my friend will do the translate part and let the inject part for u , is that ok ?

Yeah, no problem.
And it would be much easier to test it myself too.
