ROM Hack [Completed] Love Plus English Translation Patch

[jjjewel]

Btw, where is exactly the project site? is it the old Tlwiki?

Currently, it's this thread.

 

[jjjewel]

I put some of the scripts and some explanation for how to edit them online now.
If anyone has time, please give it a try.

(This part will need mostly English to English spelling/grammar/usage/etc checking.)

Editing Guidelines
(It's quite long, but please at least take a quick read before you start editing. If any part is confusing or not clear, please let me know.)

Current scripts that need to be checked/edited
(Let's start with the simple one with your main character's scripts first. He usually just talks to himself, so there aren't many complicated scripts.)

Thank you very much.

I'll try to check how the script editing goes first. For now there are a few people who are helping with the script editing and I also put some parts online as open editing.

Anyway, if I have to estimate, I'd say sometime in February.

 

[Tubby28]

ok jjjewel thanks for your answer and good luck with it love the game

Hmm....
I mean the site where you translate / check the script, download & upload graphics....bla bla bla...

for example, one has done his/her graphic edit for the calendar, where should he/she put it?
You should put the link in the first post.

My DS just broke its power switch. Repairing it would take some time, is there any good emulator that can play LP?
I tried no$GBA but the lower screen wont show up. Besides the screen position is fixed up & down.

Would you guys agree that we really need "debug mode" code to check a game like this? It's easier to move around the game without playing the whole game from start.

EDIT*
accessed google doc today, suddenly this appears.

Any solution? It works fine before this.

It's been running great on DeSmuME for me. The voices can be a little scratchy at times and I don't know about the microphone, but it should suffice for the time being.

I can't tell you how thankful I am that a patch was finally released! I've been looking forward to being able to play this game since it was released overseas. How does one go about saving in this game?

 

[jjjewel]

Oops. I forgot to change the permission settings on Google Docs. Please try again and if it still doesn't work, please let me know.

For emulator, I think DesMuMe has problem with 3D graphics but that might depend on your computer's specs. And to play in Love Plus mode, you'll need an emulator that supports microphone. (I'm not sure if there's any that has microphone function and can run Love Plus.)

By the way, has anyone tried the Wifi option? You need to have 2 DS's or play this game with your friend. I wonder if it works okay because I can't test it. (Got another DS but it broke.)

How does one go about saving in this game?
Like, the game doesn't save, or you are concerned about the number of save slots? Please give more details.

It works for me on No$GBA2.6a and myZoom. (You'll need myZoom to rotate your screen.) But again, No$GBA doesn't support microphone, so you can't talk to your girlfriend.

I wish I knew how to debug the game. It would be fun.

But at least there are the memory events and dream events that we can replay to check for error. That's really neat.

Ah, scripts to edit! I'll get right on them.
EDIT: Alright, all available "Yourself" scripts up to 303 have been edited. I'll work on some more in my free time.

 

[OceanBlue]

Just as a note, Skyline969 and I decided that it'd probably be better if we added comments like this:

CODE///////0000///////

I think he means how do you save the game. I think it's in the somewhere in the menu, right?

 

[kingkong77]

how do i patch this game? i downloaded the patch but how do i patch it?

 

[jurassicplayer]

You patch it like every other game...you could just use xdelta (or the UI version).

Thank you so much.

Just as a note, Skyline969 and I decided that it'd probably be better if we added comments like this:
I think the scripts from... 294 on(?) that Skyline969 worked on probably are formatted like that.
I think this format looks great. I'll change that in the guideline then. Thank you so much.

After the scripts are already checked and edited, I might change them to read-only for a while. So if you can't edit some scripts, that means I'm probably working on inserting them to the game files.

On the first post of this thread, there's an Instruction and the next part is hidden under spoiler tag.
Click "show" and there will be the patching instruction there.
(It's long so I put it under spoiler tag.

)

This seems like a fun project, so I wanted to help out with the script editing.

I decided to work backwards from the last file. So far, files 318-312 are edited.

yeah, this game has a wifi chat feature, which the 3 girls in the game (you must have 2 or 3 ds with different girl each) talks about their boyfriend. Unless you have 2 ds, you can't access that feature for QC.

I've tried the patch and I must say. Great work the translation is alright, font is easy and clear to read. At the moment I'm trying Manaka's Path. Also want to say --> http://www.tokyowithkids.com/fyi/hiragana_chart.html This was pretty helpful haha.

 

[Devilkid32177]

hey jjjewel, great work on this

it looks like you have made great progress so far on the translation, i have to ask ^__^
is there going to be another patch out for the other girls by chance??

also, i liked the confession thing, the way you did it, that really is easy for the non-japanese speaking people

 

[greator]

"checked by Skyline969: All Clear"

wasn't you supposed to write "Okay"?
It's confusing.
