The world "ends" on 21-12-2012

No it doesn't and that's completely off topic.

 

[sland]

I remember that translations came out around a week after HG/SS came out.

 

[Delta517]

Hope someone will translate the most important things in this game.

 

[azure0wind]

i hope kazo will translate this....

I remember that translations came out around a week after HG/SS came out.

This is the same situation as with HG/SS. We knew that the english versions of those were coming out but people still translated them and they were right because when the english versionof those games finally came out there was a tough ap problem that took weeks to fully fix, we could have the same situation here. there was ap for the J version this time round but it is sorted now already. who knows, maybe there will be a very complicated ap problem on the english versions of these games when they come out in spring and maybe there wont be a fix for it for a while. And i know its not easy at all but someone should make a patch!

All we really need is just the pokemon names, the moves, and items

 

[Supreme Dirt]

Well, Serebii has all the abilities translated, and Smogon has a large portion of moves translated. Though I swear to god, if you spam Smogon I will report you personally.

 

[GlenMcCarthy1993]

and pokebeach has all the names and the descriptions for pokedex a particial translation is not impossible there is multiple locations to get the info needed

 

[markvn]

Guys, can someone PM me which files contain which parts of the in-game text? Like: a/0/1/3 are dialogues (EXAMPLE)
I would really wanna know where the dialogues, menu, pokedex and item text are

What is this? if someone does this is the game translated?

 

[GlenMcCarthy1993]

i think so but im not sure im just gonna try supply any information i can for the translators as i cant do it myself

 

[Deleted User]

@Johnny: If you have no idea what it is, then it doesn't apply to you. Just sit down and wait for someone who knows what they're doing to translate.

And just so you know, a Black/White translation is weeks away at the very best, so don't go thinking you'll have it any time soon.

@Glen: Thanks for the info.

It's the place inside the ROM to find pieces of information of the game. e.g. text.

He's trying to learn something and you just tell him to be quiet? Do you want more noobs or what?

They still need to figure out HOW to do it. It's gonna take at least a week probably.

 

[GlenMcCarthy1993]

is it not gonna be done the same way as hg and ss

 

[bluebowser31]
