Hacking Captain Rainbow Translation POC

[Dantarion]

I had a working parser a while ago. It could parse all of the item names and descriptions, and a LOT of the dialog text.

I might start work on this again soon if I can get some translators who are interested. Might be a nice change of pace from Brawl+

I'm here. We have worked on Giftpia as well (all the script in 2 months), and our translator can do it in english too. We'll do it anyway, with a patch or not, so if someone really want to do the hacking part, come on.

I'm in. Where do you want me to go?

It's our first time doing a patch, I really don't know what you have to do, I'm sorry.
If it's necessary a channel or a forum for speaking in private i can arrange something, tell me what you do usually for projects like this, please. And thanks for offering ^^

All I need to know is if you have a hub where I can commmute with the translator. I'll extract the text, he/she will translate it, and I'll put it back in. A forum would be nice, or an IRC channel.

 

[LucaLink]

Perfect, we'll create a private space in a forum, details in private message.

IRC is my usual stomping grounds. I hang out on irc.freenode.net and irc.efnet.com. In fact, I went ahead and registered #CaptainRainbow on freenode, just in case.

Do it

Also, webchat.

 

[LucaLink]

Well, i prefer a forum so we can always reach each other, and so if someone it's not there when the others are speaking, he can see anyway what they have said.

 

[AerialX]

Well, sure, but IRC compliments a forum.

 

[LucaLink]

Uhm ok, we'll insert a chat room with that channel too, that's not a problem.
So if we need we can speak there, and you all can access it from the outside of course.

 

[GrandMasterJimmy]

I'm up for this as well, I would love to be able to play the game in English

 

[LucaLink]

Thanks, private message for you too ^^
I'll send one to TempusC too, we'll going to use his channel afterall.

IS THIS FOR GIFTPIA? AFBOIALBJDIUFBAKF

OH MY GOD THAT GAME I was so sad when they cancelled at E3

I'd love an english translation (saw the Italian one, looks pretty good, even with Google translate) but I'd adore an actual patch for the game.

Thank you guys if this is actually going to happen! I can help with testing (if you're going to release a patch), my GiFTPiA disc is sitting there, half completed. I can rip it and apply test patches

 

[LucaLink]

Do you think someone can really do the hacking for it? I'd love to do it, but i have never heard of a patch for a gamecube game, and i thought it would need a modified console anyway.

So, is TempusC actually helping to hack captain rainbow? if so, awesome...that fatal frame translation is amazing.

 

[TempusC]

It’s an easy game to hack. Level required is about an intelligent 1st or second year comp-sci/soft-eng with some knowledge of hex, probably. The translation is the tough point, and there is really no word about them getting set up. Also, the translator who gets the jokes speaks italian.

 

[luisfhb]

translating from japanese games is must! as they never get released on the right side of the planet

 

[TempusC]

Wow, what a terrible remark.

 

[LeonardoGolden]

BUMP!

Any progress on this?

 

[TempusC]

Nope! I’ve been contacted by no less than five different ‘groups’, but not a single one has answered my request that they either come on IRC or tell me the forums/chat they are using so I can chat with them and give them the info they want.

I can only assume that the groups are falling apart as fast as my bike does (P.S. very fast).

When a group with enough individuals with determination and knowledge arrive, it will get started I guess!
