So, I have looked up the text files. It seems the most of texts in the current patch were translated by google translator... and that was the reason why I couldn't find any korean during playing the game.
(maybe) All of basic informations like items, equips, chapter name were translated as well. Graphics were pretty much done, but seems not all.
The comment at here says that lastest SVN were stopped at half of the Warrior Ch.2, but don't know if they were translated correctly.

Edit: Text files are encoded in Unicode. The ratio of valid txt files is 300/457. Others are 2-byted empty files.

Edit2: What the page is for?

Translating basic information was done by the old crew: only few errors are remained. So we don't need to translate them twice. For graphic files, I don't even know where the files are, so I can't tell you anything.
But we still have 15121 lines of scenario texts total. I don't think it would be done within a short time. So sad that there are very few people here who are able to translate them...

IIRC it's on a github somewhere.

All that truly remained was just to make sense of the google translated things + formatting. If you can somehow contact either Tehskullz or ron975 i'm sure they'll be able to give you the access needed and whatnot.

It would be cool if someone at least make an AP patch for the 0.04redsnail version, to prevent the save troubles and the crashes.

Hello fellow time travelers!

If you were like me, and stumbled upon this historical thread trying to look for an English Maplestory version, follow along.


Currently in 2021, there is NO working english translation for Maplestory DS version (actual english edited version, not machine translation).


I have made a version using a chinese translated rom and put in ALL useable english text from the previously abandoned projects.

I recommend this to anyone who wants a working rom with objectives laid out in english, without having to sit through paragraphs of machine translated story. This also can be for people who knows chinese, but used to play MapleStory PC in english and won't recognise the chinese names. The story is well written with some amusing scenes.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
