About: Based in the Mobile Suit Gundam universe, Kidou Senshi Gundam: Senjo no Kizuna Portable is a compact version of the arcade battle game. Note: This will only work with ppsspp. This is just a texture replacement Hello everyone! I have decided to make a translation of Gundam kizuna after getting tired of googling lensing all the menus. This translation is mostly anything that i could pull out of using the texture extraction on the ppsspp. So the patch is pretty much a texture replacement There is still much to translate and lots of stuff that requires more hacking, but i am satisfied with what i have translated and made the game very playable in English. I probably wont continue working on this and wanted to share this for the people that wanted to play this game. The patch also seems to work with the ppsspp socom servers too. Install instructions: 1. Extract to your memstick folder in your PPSSPP directory. 2. In PPSSPP, click Game settings → More settings... → Tools → Developer tools, then check Replace textures. Do not check Save new textures! (Optional) You may assign a button to "Texture replacement" in the control settings to turn the texture replacement on and off at a press of a button.

It took me a while to figure it out myself so I created this Tutorial. You can play the modded ISO in any PSP Environment without any Plugins.

The basic steps are:

1. Extract the GTA3PSP.IMG from the game ISO using UMDGen / PowerISO or any other program

2. Open thy file in GTA Stories Texture Explorer by Dageron or YAIE

3. Export the texture you want to change as .TIM2

4. Use OPTIX iMage Studio to convert it to a file format, which you can edit (I use psd)

5. Edit that file in RGB mode

6. Import it back into OPTIX Studio and use Image -> color reduction -> output colors -> 16 colors and Alpha -> reduce color including Alpha value -> slider all the way to the right.

7. Save as .tm2 with the settings 4bit TIM2, 32bit CLUT, CSM1 CLUT and Alignment -> 16 bytes.

8. Use GTA Stories Texture Explorer to import your modified texture and save the file.

9. Replace the old the with the new one and save the ISO

Done.
