ROM Hack Jump Ulimate Stars Translation Project

[Emu]

So when abouts do you feel this project will be done?

@beautifulbeast ub names are the names used when they translate shows and movies. Occasionally when this is done they'll change the spelling of a character's name, or just change the name all together.

eg : Tokoro Tennosuke to Jelly Jiggler

And Zoro to Zolo *shivers*

Thanks for contributing mixinluv2u and A2hok, you guys should consider volunteer for the correction stage (1 month from now?).

I'd love to help aswell even though I might be a bit more busy in a month - school n stuff. If you've got anymore quick questions I can probably be of help aswell.

 

[HeatMan Advance]

Would it be possible to use both the dub and original names? If it's too much then never mind.

I'm familiar with both so it wouldn't matter either way I guess.

First things first, let's all welcome our first volunteers for the correction stage mixinluv2u, Cyborgmatt and A2hok. This stage is dated for next Monday and I'm afraid I will have to ask you guys to get a Google account so you can collaborate, since we'll be using Google Docs (don't worry, I'll post a brief tutorial later on).

Also, before we can close the cleaning stage for file 1 ability_t.bin we must find definitions for:

45. Waste
58. Heavy weight class
61. Light weight class
103. Rage
108. Counter attack
113. Centre stage
115. Cooperation
117. Intelligence
119. Explosion

As already stated before, you don't need to know Japanese to contribute, it's enough if you have played the game or have read the FAQ (at GameFAQS, for instance).

?? Coin case
????????????????? Your special gauge will increase as you collect coins.
????????

?? Waste
# ???????????????? will go to a approach where it will be decreased..
I think "Waste" is referring to the previous ability. For "Coin case" your special gain increases a lot when collecting coins. But for waste, you don't get so much. And "coin case" doesn't make sense. The actual translation is "Collection." Something else could be used to make it sound more relevant. So my version would be like this

Collection: When you collect coins, your special gauge will increase.
Waste: Received less special gauge energy from coins.

103. Rage
108. Counter attack
113. Centre stage
115. Cooperation
117. Intelligence
119. Explosion
As for these, the translations on the website are good. Just need to add that they are all implying that your special gauge will increase.

I'm still unsure about the weight class stuff. I don't remember seeing it appear anywhere in the game. But I agree with mixinluv.
QUOTE

heavy weight class: when attacked, the distance you are thrown is decreased. (you know, because you are heavier.)
light weight class: when attacked, the distance you are thrown is increased.

I use google docs etc daily so that will be fine, I'll PM you now with my gmail address.

 

[A2hok]

I have a google account so it should be good.

btw Centre Stage - Increase Special Gauge when you KO an opponent
(pretty similar to translation).

Cooperation - Increase SP Gauge when attacking with or blocking a Support Character.

Intelligence (possibly suggest another name?) - Increase SP Gauge when attacking or blocking
Characters of an opposing nature

Explosion - Increase SP Gauge when using multiple Special Attacks in a short time

 

[angelotax]

I want to help, pm me with details.

 

[mixinluv2u]

i agree with ngiahz.

 

[JacobReaper]

ya, can i have more details cause i already joined

 

[JacobReaper]

sorry for double post but, well, right now i just got the percentage of all our work!!


WE ARE 91.10873731369255% DONE!!!!


well, i think this is correct.. anyway, YAY W00T

ya, i helped, and LOTS of other people W00T W00T

but then again we have to redo a lot..

 

[Heran Bago]

This project's come a long way, I'm thinking of helping.
I see the translation of the text is ~91% done, has this work also been done to the files themselves? Like are the files downloadable yet, or are ROM hackers yet to go through fitting the roman characters into the space provided?

 

[dosu23]

Wow amazing guys, keep up the good work~

 

[FAST6191]

@Heran Bago the text in the rom is Shift-JIS and contains a Roman character set already. The pointers can get a bit odd (they differ between files but can be relative, plain, plain with a reduction for the header, individual subsection section based....) but nothing too drastic. I was just planning to convert to shiftJIS insert and repoint for the first go (and maybe add a thin font and tweak width kludge in place of a true VFW hack if it looks really ugly).
Courtesy of the DS file system space is not a problem in the slightest.

The graphics for the menu are simple VRAM safe BIOS function compatible LZ compressed GBA stuff.

SO when will we be expecting you know some of the current compile bins to an alpha english patch? Then you could decide beta and other what nots

I think I'll help somewhat since I have a little experience in the Gameboy/Color hacking department. That is if I remember much

They are not going to release any alphas or betas, except to specifically selected people to test the patch iirc.

 

[Blebleman]

I guess I'm a little late, but...you guys need any help from someone who speaks Japanese?

(and who has raped the game so much)

 

[FAST6191]

@Blebleman translators are always welcome. The script dump/web based translation app is here:
http://crisistunity.com/justp/

There are openings for translators or correction suggestions, you say you are familiar with the game which is even better.

 

[Blebleman]

Holy cow! After reading through a couple of pages, smells like Babelfish!~

Big job though, didn't realise how big until I saw.
