ROM Hack Okaeri! Chibi-Robo! Happy Richie Ōsōji!

[hippy dave]

Ok cool, well I can't help with translation, not without a few years to learn Japanese first, but I'm happy there's some progress happening, keep it up

 

[rastsan]

maybe retsubty can get you on some of the graphics...?

 

[hippy dave]

Yeah I could give it a go, I'm not exactly artistic but I can do methodical image editing.

 

[hippy dave]

So I'm getting hooked on the Gamecube game, and need to make sure this translation happens Did you have any more breakthroughs? It looked like you didn't have much luck with the MKDS editor thing. Maybe we can figure out another way or come up with a tool, or bully someone into making one

I didn't do any images yet but I had a look at them, looks like some stuff like the maps would be pretty straightforward to get a lot of them done in batches, but a lot of the individual text-images, I'd need someone to tell me the translations if they're anything more than the dreaded Google Translate can handle. If I have a list of translations to work from I'm happy to get on with them gradually.

It is working its just a basic find and replace hex editor thing. So I have 38 ish control codes I put in its place code01 or in some cases where the actual code is longer than that I pad it with 9's or F's. I haven't had a problem yet. I should mention I did this by hand to identify what the control codes were the first time. So one way or another it can be done. (here comes the whining) its just formatting it for space constraints 30 characters per line - control codes do not add to count. The basic this an item name so I got to add the longest item name count to that 30 space limit. those with experience know what I am talking about. x control code takes up so much space and by necessity has to have a new screen thus a new pointer after for any text that may have been after it...

(i really do use this to go to sleep...)

Has retsubty got back to you yet?

 

[hippy dave]

I was slack about messaging him/her, but have done now, waiting to hear back.

 

[Alchemilla]

How's the translation going? Still waiting on that guy?

I hope this project keeps on rocking. I was very disappointed that the third game was skipped by Nintendo, but that could be due to the fact they made the previous title a Wal-Mart exclusive...

I don't have any particular talents I can offer other than proofreading and testing the game out for any errors, so if either of those are needed, I'd be willing to help. If they are not. the best and probably only thing I can do is root you guys on and wish you luck with the project! :3

It's due to the store exclusively selling it and that it wasn't like the first game. The 4th game in't selling as well as the first too, for similar reasons.

Isn't the fourth game a digital-only release? Granted, the scope of the recent game seems pretty out there compared to the previous games, but anyone with a 3DS has reasonable access to downloading the game. The second Chibi-Robo was doomed to one retailer people may not even bother going to, let alone for video games.

Yeah the 4th one is shitty anyway because the camera is shitty, and you gotta stand on the fucking sun to get a good pic with that camera.

I hate bumping this, but has any efforts been made regarding a translation? I wish I knew Japanese because I'd probably be able to use all of my free time to help move something like this along, but all I have been doing is hoping it's still pulling through. ):

 

[Sora de Eclaune]

I know what you mean! I only know enough to be able to navigate menus, but I would never be able to tell you what each menu item said.

 

[Valahart]

Is the translation project still up? I'm really looking forward to playing this...

 

[fatherjack]

Looks like it's tailed off somewhat................. Such a pity, this would have been awesome

 

[Digital.One.Entity]

Let's keep the goodness moving forward let's hope this isn't DOA....

 

[myturtlesoreo]
