ROM Hack I'd like a crash course in C++...
from what i've looked at in this book, i don't think it can live up to its namesake. it's a comprehensive tutorial, but it's fairly accelerated, which might not be great for a beginner... I would strongly recommend starting with C# (since it will work on any windows computer [which is good if...- bugubugu

Gaming Fate/Extra Google Translation Patch
the prolbem right now is that i can't get to the script. it's in the .cmp files and it's compressed along some version of the lzss scheme that i'm trying to figure out. i'm asking around for help, but i'll post back here if ever i manage to figure it out. can't test anything until i actually... -
ROM Hack compression?
emulator's not working with the game (at least not on my computer) so much for the shortcut. i don't think that all the files have one dictionary because the pattern of being coherent at the beginning and gibberish at the end stays. oh, and would it be too much wishful thinking if i were to...- bugubugu

ROM Hack compression?

Gaming Fate/Extra Google Translation Patch
nvm, found it, pulled the game apart and all... I don't think you're going to find anything useful in the day folder. all of those just seem to be pointers to the pack folder, where i'm finding some real text, followed by random save screen stuffs... i looked at all the day files, and they all... -

can't find that thread -^(o_O)^- but i take it you could use UMDGen, right? i'll take a foray into there in a day or two, when i can get my (virtual) hands on the iso... -

how did you extract the .cpk? i'd be interested in helping out once i'm done reading the romhacking.net tutorials.
