Hacking Trails/Kiseki modding

I dont understand. A great and complete Ao no Kiseki translation is almost done by translator Guren. The Zero no Kiseki translation is done and the correction is in progress. So why dont you focus on Trails in the Sky the 3rd? I mean to somehow port the PC's english script into PSP version.

Might as well port it to 3rd Evolution

Because I don't have the script opcodes for the 3rd.

The 3rd is already available in English... It seems the goal is to bring the games that were not released in any official capacity.

Also the PC version is the uncut version so there is extra dialogue. Due to this, it's not a simple swapping the Japanese text for the English text like the FC Evolution translation. At least, that's my understanding.

I see. But dont forget that basicly we are console players, its a console forum topic, so most of us dont play on PC. Me neither. I sucesfully got the english script from PC version, but I couldnt manage the PSP files

I only got into this series because I primarily game on PC.

Imagine 3rd Evolution translated and added with the 5 minutes uncensored content, now we have the perfect Kiseki game.

A 60fps code would be pretty nice.

I'm working on script updates this week, since I have a bunch of free time.

Also, for those who are interested in translating Zero no Kiseki, there is a fork of EDDecompiler that adds support for Zero no Kiseki:
https://github.com/ZhenjianYang/EDDecompiler

Could you compile me a tool from this github?

You don't compile it.

Honestly, I'd say even 3rd PSP would still be better, partly because of the portraits and partly because 3rd Evo's balance was screwed up. Certain new features from Zero/Ao were ported back into it, and instead of properly rebalancing the game around these features, bosses were made into damage sponges by drastically increasing their HP.

I'm also not sure that it would even be possible to add the full version of the cut scene back into either of the portable versions.

I'm curious if multiple lines work on the PSP version of the 3rd.

Also, I'm curious if the opcode tables are in the same place. Maybe I could add Sora/SC/3rd PSP support and SC/3rd PC support to EDDecompiler? It would be nice to have the text/asset changes backported to the PSP versions.

will this get a proper 100% translation with less bugs? i know someone is working on editing ZnK right now i hope this gets same treatment

Since guren's script translation is almost done, I will not be releasing the fixed lines machine translated script.

However, these mods are still on the table, sorted from most priority to least priority:

.IT(P/C/3)<->.PNG
HD textures for Sora/SC/3rd/Zero/Ao PPSSPP.
Program/library for extracting/repacking DIR/DAT used in Sora/SC/3rd PC.
Chinese Zero PC -> Japanese Zero PC conversion for the future Zero English translation by the Geofront team.
Fixed 60FPS+4K videos for Sora/SC/3rd PC thanks to butterflow, waifu2x, and VP9+Opus in WebM.
60FPS+4K videos for Zero/Ao PC thanks to butterflow, waifu2x, and VP9+Opus in WebM.
Updates to CrossbellTranslationTool for Zero support.
External libpng/freetype/zlib libraries for Japanese Zero PC.
WebP support for Japanese Zero PC.
Ao backpatch for Zero PC since there is no Japanese Ao PC version available.
60FPS for Sora/SC/3rd/Zero/Ao PSP.
Script decompilation for Sora/SC/3rd PSP. (PC and Zero/Ao are already supported: https://github.com/ZhenjianYang/EDDecompiler )
Port Sora/SC English PC changes to PSP.
Sora 3rd English on PSP.

Once Guren's patch has been released, there will be no more support for the machine translated script through GBATemp.
Support will still be provided to my close friends. If you know me in person, feel free to call, text, DM, email, or meet me through my usual channels.

It would be nice to put some of our attention on porting the TitS 3rd, the English script is already available and we have 2 viable ports the PSP and the Vita!
And I agree that the Zero and Ao are already being covered by the guys at Geofront/Esterior(.)net so it would be much more fruitful to push some of our efforts and passion on porting over the TitS 3rd instead!

Script decompilation for Sora/SC/3rd PSP and .IT(P/C/3)<->.PNG is needed, however.
Once those are done, Sora 3rd English is possible.

I have a solution for ITP<->PNG.
1) Edit your image. You need to preserve transparency in your image editing program. I recommend editing in RGB mode.
2) Using pngquant or some quantizer program (I think there are many) to convert to PNG256. Basically just a PNG with color depth 8 and indexed color. And you have to make sure your quantizer preserves transparency.
3) Use my program to convert to ITP.

ITC and IT3 not supported, but maybe you could do them, I don't know.
