ROM Hack FFTA2 Translation Patch Releases

[Deleted User]

ummm dling the story updates is taking forever & a day to DL via editor

perhaps there is a way to do this quickly, im clocking in at 15 minutes at the moment and only 3 "ticks" done

then don't do it. update db only gets you the things having changed on the server. Fetch db on the other hand gets you the copy of the table on the server. You've used the latter.

Great job on the translations, the only issue I'm having is using the Python 0.8 release. When I patch the rom, everything that wasn't translated before (mission text, item descriptions, etc) becomes translated, but the stuff from before (stats, the main menu on startup, and other graphical translations) remain untranslated. Any idea why this could be happening? I make sure to patch with all current files, but it still remains untranslated. (when the older files did translate those sections)

I'd be happy to get up some screenshots to help visualize the problem, just let me know what I can do to help.

Thanks in advance for any and all assistance!

You could just read the previous page... or http://deufeufeu.free.fr/wiki/index.php?title=FFTA2_Editor and you'd know, that you have to patch the rom with patch 0.1 before patching with the editor

Maybe we should add it as a signature...
Just as a recap :
* Untranslated japanese appears as a)gibberish when not added to the patch b)Stamps with tableid:stringid when patched.
* Graphic is not changed by the editor so if you want the first graphic translation you can use a 0.1 patched rom, anyother patch will not run in the editor.
* If you use the latest editor source don't use fetch db anymore, it's semantics has been changed now it fetch the WHOLE tables from the server which is taking quite a long time. Instead you can use Update DB, but note that is it run at the start of the editor on source releases (disabled in binary).
* Since story was added some crashes have appeared in game. It might be fixable by ensuring all the table you patch are validated using the Validate button of the toolbar.

About my involvement in the project : right now I'm working on adding features to the acekard rpg (to help debugging mainly).

It happens if I try to patch the ROM with the story tables.
Any chance you know what's causing it?

Yeah, a mistake on 0.6.8. you've got to choices :
1) download 0.6.8a
2) edit editor.cfg file and add the line "first_load=True"

w00t, didn't realise that there's a new version.
I patched my ROM and everything up to the first mission works great.
The quality of the hacking is impressive. Love what you did with the logos/introduction.
Does the latest editor still require username/password to contribute?

Actually, as weird as it sounds, I did read back through the pages and did patch, but only with 0.6 or so, which was my problem. I'll patch with 0.1 and then with the DB to fix everything up, sorry for the miscommunication on my part.

Edit -> Do you only have to patch with 0.1 or can you use updated patches like 0.2.4, etc?

 

[Solariz]

only 0.1 will work, since >0.1 will trim the rom thus causing errors in the editor.
but you need only 0.1 since there is nothing but more text translated in the other patches.

Now it's quite clear that you haven't read the latest posts before posting....

@iritegood: yes it's still need a user/pass but you have one.

Hmmm i dunno if this is where i should put this... i think there is a chat thing somewhere but i can't use it so....

crashes, sounds dissapears n then it crashes

some missions and after some battles, i lose sound then it crashes....

i checked the validator and i got quite a few criticals, but not enough time to see if i can fix it (also lacking the know-how)

Quest Result
1 - 18 New Lines added after the logical end of string (thinkin these are the problem)

or maybe its just my fault, as i've got neither the time nor the know-how to re-patch these roms or fix em myself

It's a known issue, and the critical shown in quest result have to be ignored. Most strings use a end of string marker except those ones.

 

[warbird]

to expand upon deufeufeus explanaton, the quest result strings that you see on-screen after a battle, is made up of 3 strings, each 1 line in length:





this makes up the speach bubble. Thus only the contains the end-of-string markers.

 

[Missing Number]

so your saying the crashing game is my fault then? i should just redo the rom n hope for the best? im hoping that'll work, cuz the crashes after battles n missions is gettin on my nerves! lol

or should i just put this game on hold til the issues are fixed? i guess i could put s'more time into a few other games... but i like training up my guys all the time lol

with a code i created im constantly switching races of characters to get as many abilities as possible, i've got most of my guys with Double Sword, but i was thinking of starting over to read the story

Or, I may have found out the issue and just not edited, that's all.

Now you've got my brother playing on the game as well, he really seems to enjoy it too. Besides the aformentioned quest and clan trial freezing issues, the game seems to run just fine. Props for an excellent release!
