ROM Hack M&L: Partners in Time font problem

[vigo]

Hi everyone.

I am trying to translate Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time (Bowser's Inside Story as well), but I have problem with a font.
In Polish alphabet are some letters which I have to add to the game.
There is a font file StatFontSet.dat
I have tried edit it in tile editors (CT2, TileMolester), but without good results.

Can somebody help me edit that font? I need to replace characters # $ * _ ^ \ { } with ą ć ę ł ś ń ż ź
Maybe more skilled person can replace them for me?

could you upload or send a link with the file or show something of the file structure? What bitplane (bpp), size, and any other details that you know would be helpful.

Link to the font file: http://www.mediafire.com/?ssxcgmvko0ikfy7
Bitplane is 4bpp

I will be very grateful if you will help me.

sorry vigo this goes beyond the amount of time I am willing to invest in it. (as in I get what they are saying but I am sooo not spending that much time doing this). for anyone who is interested take a look at this link and this link.

Its a good thing I took another look at those links the letters you want are there. you just need the hex value for them. which just means looking up the character values. that is all. with luck the pointer table has them included. if not the pointer to the pointer table may have them near it....

yes this means you don't need to edit the font. you just need to use the right hex for ą ć ę ł ś ń ż ź...
