PS: Tatsunoko and so are totally different games and uses other files for the text (It´s not always in the main.dol) Biohazard 0 and Donkey Kong Jungel Beat for example have the text in bmg files.

Thats interesting. Have you (or know anybody else) that has successfully got anywhere with translating TvC? ...I'm sure that if monster hunter can be done then TvC would be a breeze (well at least the opening menu anyway)?

Nope it isn´t so easy tatsunoko seems to use fpk files with everything packed in it and at the moment there is no way to unpack them (at least i don´t know any tool haven´t looked for it a long time and i tried many programms) even then it´s still possible that they are packed again.
Anyway i´m pretty sure that the text in this game are graphics.

Ah thats a shame. Thanks for the heads up... saves me having a go at it now. lol If the menu is graphics I wonder if there is a way to replace the images? ...I guess it would still have to be unpacked and then its probably saved in some weird obscure format anyway.

Sorry to take this thread off topic.

Seriously I think all that is neccesary are item names and quest objectives. All that other dialogue shit is worthless. Anyway you've got me all excited. I'm coping with the Japanese for now.

i'm the translator...

Wow! How much of the game would you say you have left to patch?
atm, i'm translation rest of Weapons/Armors and the quests, it's still lot of work, but easy to translate, since
there is a english Monster Hunter for PS2

QUOTEAnd is there any part that will be impossible to patch at the moment?
The Menu (sub-menus and battle menu are translateable) all NPC texts and some butten events ("(Y) go outside of house" etc.)
they are compressed in external files on the disc.

all what i translate will be inside the main.dol

the final patch will be in 2 forms:
1. IPS Patch -> for directly patching main.dol
2. GPF Patch -> for the original dvd, a Gecko Memory Patch ^^

found this one yesterday it works on naruto fpk files http://www.mediafire.com/?nyg30nzyn2y
inside the fpk you will find brres files the biggest issue is finding the packers

its also worth looking in the games for the required tools i found this also whilst browsing

QUOTEI believe Naruto uses the same fpk files as this game and naruto actually includes all the un compressed files as well as the compressed files. It even includes the bat file they use to compress them into one file all that was missing was fpack.exe.
Hope this helps I can upload the files in both forms if it would help crack this format

This doesnt help since Chinese uses Monospace characters too.
This makes it much easier for them to translate a game it was the same for Dissidia.
