Good work!
What I mean is, if you had trouble translating from the japanese, you could have taken that translation and translate it to english. Am I right?

They could've, yes. But with each translation of the original japanese script, you lose some fidelity to the original way it was written and meant to be told.
If the Spanish team lost 5-10% (of fidelity) in translation, and the team would've translated the spanish script and thus lose another 5-10% in fidelity, their text would now be very different from the original one.

So translating the original text with people that can speak Japanese takes roughly the same amount of time and remains very close to the original work. I'm actually glad this is the way they chose to do it, even if it took 4 years to do.

Ni No Kuni runs on an NDS with M3DSReal and (this is really really great) a New3DSXL with M3iZero. Wow! :rolleyes:

What is that modified patch? If it works with nds-bootsrap thing who cares the flashcards? I just want to play this game.

Did as @pleonex said and created an .xdelta patch of the resulting file.
With these changes the Sleep-function works for me now.
Using an R4i Gold 3DS RTS Plus with 1.64 wood on a DSi XL.

Edit by Cyan : Apply this patch on a clean Japanese ROM, not your already English patched file.

Does this need to be renamed or something? As trying to extract just ends in an error, no matter how many times I go about redownloading it.

No, everything works as expected for me. Something's up with your PC.
I even redownloaded the file and double checked the archive, all good.

Don't have a normal computer as it's broken, but I've tried on both my tablet, and my raspberry pi .. and both of them throw the same problem of the archive being corrupt when I try to extract the file. So it's hard to believe that it's something on my end..

edit: something definitely going on with the rar file for the arm7 file, as no matter what I always run into a bad archive error when trying to extract, and it's only with the arm7.rar file, the normal English patch extracts just fine as does anything and everything else I throw at it, so it's leading me to believe the arm7.rar is just corrupt, or something weird is going on where it's not allowed to be extracted on Android or Linux devices.

LOL, they could have at least merged the AP patch into the translation patch, damn.

Hephaestus modified patch works for me with my R4 sdhc rts lite 2017 firm v3.9.
Still doesn't work with Y's 7.05.

I got a New 3DS.

No renaming.
Downloaded the file and tested it.
Works just fine.
You might wanna try updating your Winrar and/or 7zip and try again.
If that doesnt fix it something might be wrong with your browser, so your file ends up corrupted.
If so, try another browser.

Now it remains to make a full Russian patch and life is good.

Anjiera · Dec 10, 2018

There's a 1 hour video of the game on YouTube by a German twitch streamer. Check it out!

Flame · Dec 10, 2018

Amazing work. thank you for your time and effort for this great project.

comput3rus3r · Dec 10, 2018

aww shucks, doesn't work on my r4 gold pro

the english patch gives error loading rom and the spanish pach goes to black screen after the intro movie.

gonna try ds drastic on my tablet.

Aenkyn · Dec 10, 2018

Ok, I have a CFW on my 3ds so I finally tried to install twilight menu. the game boots but freezes between the intro and the title screen. slow progress is still progress, I guess ?

Edit : OH MY.... It worked ! I don't know why it froze last time. I didn't skip the intro this time, maybe it comes from that ?

By the way, you lazy people didn't even bother putting subtitles in the intro video (pre-title screen). I didn't pay for that ! Wait ! I didn't pay at all ? You're right. My apologies. And jokes aside, it is an amazing work that the team has done and I couldn't care less about this intro video. I can't wait to finally experiment the game !

I'm playing it with Drastic on Android.
Patched the original japanese game with the translation patch.
Played up to the end of the first battle and it works like a charm!

After applying the patch to the Japanese room how to do patch translation? I got error message "target window checksum mismatch" trying to do so.

Edit: @Anjiera's swap arm7 file method worked for me on both R4i-SDHC (non-YS menu) and TwilightMenu++ . If anyone want to try, patch this over your english patched room.

Congrats on the release! Looking forward to giving it a try

Cyan · Dec 10, 2018

Sterob, are you using xdelta UI 1.1 ?
if you don't use the exact same version of the xdelta program that was used to generate the patch, it'll not be compatible and you'll have checksum errors.
some xdelta are not checking checksum, while others do. there are just too many different version, be sure you use the one linked in the readme or on the first post.
use the "ui" executable, not the accompanying xdelta.exe directly.

I applied the restored arm7.bin patch with xdelta UI 1.1 without problem.
edit:
I think my version is xdelta UI 1.0, but it worked fine.
I used that tool without issues with both original patch and restored arm7 patch.

if you are using the correct tool, maybe the problem is your patch file or your ROM. be sure to use winrar5+ or 7zip to get a good extracted file. I can give you checksum.

does not work on a r4i,dstti, and m3, r4sdhc gold pro.
The deltapatch does work on the original rom. After i apply the english patch. i get the error... no matter what i try. Twl loader and dsi menu launcher, on cfw also not working.

I hope someone comes with a patch for this problems. Buying other modern flashcards is a risk that they also not may work. I prefar to play it on a nintendo console :-( if you want a nervous break down i suggest you keep trying getting it to work

sterob · Dec 10, 2018

@Cyan Yes, i used xdelta UI 1.1

Hmm i got different checksum result. Are you talking about the Hephaestus's patch?
