Simple "HELLO WORLD!" Shift-JIS text insert proof of concept. Nothing serious.

Game doesn't seem to support lowercase letters (or at least only supports a select few) during this screen.

Not really sure why "HELLO" didn't fully show - other than my tool not properly inserting text, but not entirely sure because game has unusual behavior.

hi there! i came across the code for this tool on github, and i just wanted thank you so much for creating this! i'm planning on creating a translation patch for despiria, and this seems like it'd be really helpful for getting me started.

that being said, this game has some quirks that i'll have to address, so i have a lot of work ahead of me. there's obviously the vertical text animations for instance, and judging from your script it seems like there are some text encoding issues to take care of. also it seems like i'll have to mess around with the font so that it can display english characters properly. since you've spent some time working with this game, have you encountered any other quirks in the code that i should know about before jumping in?

thanks for your help!

    I took 3 years of Spanish in high school, ages ago but don't remb most of it. Like they say, if you don't use it, you lose it.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
