ROM Hack Certainly Pokétext to compile

[sergititob]

Good, I have a little doubt:
I am the translator of platinum into Spanish, and I am finishing the translation.
I am using the PokéText to extract the text, but I draw three ways:
1 .- In the folder enc: Archives .Bin
2 .- In the folder htm: Archives .Htm are to translate that since it is where are the letters and words.
3 .- Folder: unenc: Archives .Bin different from the first folder. They know not to serve.
Gradually I translated. But when I re-create the file msg.narc
and move the files .htm with words .bin in binary form to compile, and make it work, I do not know.
Anybody can explain me, please, how to compile and passing .Htm to .Bin?

An example:

File .bin. Folder 1 enc:

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

.Htm file in the same folder 2 or htm:

????????????????????????????????????????
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

File .Bin (the same) of 3 or unenc folder:

 Ô:$  V g $

ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿc ñ ‘ † › ñ ` ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ

As you can see are different. I like to spend .Htm to .Bin.
Postscript:
The three files that I have are the same. Thank you.

what are you using to read the .bin files?
because it's a kind of messy

converting the html back to binary is never gonna work. the HTML only rips out the text not all the control codes etc which are required by the game, you will need to manually type the text into the binary file. The table file is part of the poketext source file, not in .tbl format obviously.

By the way, loadingNOW release thenewpoketext: thenewpoketext

Its meant to work with DP but you can still use it for platinum. Just rename pl_msg.narc to msg.narc (and msg.narc to something else) whenver you want to edit something that is in pl_msg.narc. thenewpoketext re-encrypts and works great.

Can you describe exactly what you did?

extracted pl_msg.narc from platinum (german patch v1.1)
changed name to msg.narc
put in folder called tmp_WORK (rom is named the same)
started thenewpoketext
entered WORK as rom name
entered getall zaza.xml
errors and closes

(something with traceback dunno for sure)

Well, I just tried it and it works perfectly. Try it (renaming to msg.narc and using get all) on a clean rom.

You need to put the ndstool.exe on the same directory as the poketext.
Don't need to run the program, just use the script.txt to configure.

Here are the methods:

get id filename.xml
getall filename.xml
patch filename.xml
mkrom romname.nds

The get is to extract a file to a xml file. ex: get 341 intro.xml
The getall is to extract all the script. ex: getall full.xml
The patch is to compress the full.xml and replace with the msg.narc (not tried yet)
The mkrom is to create a rom (based on the directory tmp_romname) with the changes. ex: mkrom newrom.nds

- Do you put the extension? Like WORK.nds
- Did you unpack the rom? (just open thenewpoketext and put work.nds to create a fold tmp_work, need ndstool)

On the file script.txt put it:

work.nds
get 349 349.xml
q

That worked here.

You might have put stuff in your german patch that cause it to mess up.

EDIT:decrypted original msg.narc instead of pl_msg.narc
got the same error
