ROM Hack Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Translation

[HyoImowano]

I would have thought someone would have started a project for this game by now, I would do it myself but I don't know any Japanese nor much of anything about ROM hacking.

I'd vote 100% for this project and if I knew anything about how translation works or knew more than basic japanese then i'd undertake it.

just wait it will be released in english

i cant understand why ppl want this and ffta2 translated already !

Well, maybe it's because they want to have a better time playing the game and don't want to wait for the english games to come out.

FFTA2 - Because release date is TBA.

FFCCRF - Not really sure why you would spend time translating this one, the release date is Q2 2008. By the time someone full translates the game, it would probably be close to release, unless we had a full team of fluent japanese translators and editors that like tedious work.

Translations are only worth while if an official English translation is not coming. Otherwise, you are just really impatient.

 

[HyoImowano]

It's true, I am just really impatient. I'm getting together with some friends who know some Japanese to play CC on Monday.

 

[test84]

i'm really intrested in CC too and it should be much less time consuming than FFTA2, since it has much less complexity in gameplay and is more story driven.

maybe we talk about it after ppl at FFTA2 translation team get their work at a appropriate level.

 

[Grimalkin]

How would it be less time consuming? There's way more text inside CC, since it's story driven. It's more or less the same.

And the fact there's text for every NPC.

Nobody's going to translate the game,that's for sure but I found a guide:
Touch meh

 

[test84]

today i took like 70 pix from menus and story of CC but i thought that ppl dont have time to do them, so i didnt upload 'em, but the pix are still in my camera if they want to do any stuff.

Upload them maybe someone will help with the translation.

 

[test84]

ok, we'll do in couple of days.
but i still think its better be start off when FFTA2 project is done at some point so more ppl can focus on it.

 

[GameDragon]

I would love a CC translation, Its one of my most played multiplayer games right now. A story translation would be nice, but a complete menu translation would be even better =).

I would help, but I have absolutely no knowledge of Japanese. Just basic common sense

.

I agree no point doing them both at the same time lets get one done first.

 

[HyoImowano]

All we really need for CCROF is menus and items, maybe missions, really just the multi-player stuff.

Listen to this guy, none of you truly realise the amount of work involved. Not only is there a HUGE amount to translate in any FF title but there are also many considerations - such as fitting the text in the areas provided for Japanese.

This could take longer than the official one. It's a nice idea but unrealistic.

With FF3 we had the battle scenes translated early - this would be nice, and a far more achievable target...

I'm not going to do start a new project like this after FFTA2 is finished. The reason why I've worked on the FFTA2 translation is because we had a lot of japanese speaking people to help, and I wanted to experience rom hacking a big game with a time constraint. It was challenging and fun, but there's not really much interest to do another one. On the other hand, now I'm knowing a lot about squareenix home library for the ds, so I could answer some questions from any guy interested in rom hacking this game. But a FF game is not the place to start rom hacking, so unless someone experienced joins the project....

 

[HyoImowano]

If I can find someone who can extract and re-insert the text, I have a couple guys that could translate.
