I don't know source code. (In Russian site i find that: "The table of displacement is stored(kept) in arm9.bin (an executed file arm9) to the address 0x9143C, and also lays in an initial kind in a file pack_data.c.")
Can you put my translation images to the rom?

I think i have recompression working although it takes FOREVER because of how many files there are and how i've got this currently coded.

EDIT: Apparently its not working

Hi, I registered in the forum because I found out about this translation project. However there seems to be no updates for awhile now so I am wondering is the translation still on going?

I played Princess Maker 2 and I am a fan of it. I wish I can play the later version of Princess Maker, but sadly no English translation for any of them. I want to thank anyone who is doing the translation and I hope the translation get finished.

I don't believe a translation project was started. People tried but it never went anywhere.

I don't plan on translating this game until the beginning of next year, maybe someone else will do it first.

That was people giving it a try, I don't think a proper team was made.

Awwwww, my hopes are now crushed. Thanks for the info anyway.

Any kind soul would want to start the translation project for this? There definitely a community for Princess Maker games, if small.

I hope, that you understand it. I don't hack the game myself.

Step the first. Creation of folders.
Create a folder where you will be kept the data connected to process and an insert of the data.
Place Rom there. Create there folders - rom_data, data and images.
Download in this folder ndstool. Put there all others programs:
http://consolgames.ru/files/other/pm4_extract.7z
http://consolgames.ru/files/other/pm4_ImageConv.7z

Step of the second. Unpack Rom.
Copy in a folder rom, name it - pm4.nds.
Create a file extract_rom.bat (pay attention to expansion - bat). Click the right button of the mouse, choose item(point) "to change", copy there the following code:
@echo off
set rom=pm4.nds
set dir=rom_data

echo Preparation...
rd /Q /S %dir% > nul
mkdir %dir% > nul
echo Extracting...
ndstool -v -x %rom% -9 %dir%\arm9.bin -7 %dir%\arm7.bin -y9 %dir%\y9.bin -y7 %dir%\y7.bin -d %dir%\data -y %dir%\overlay -t %dir%\banner.bin -h %dir%\header.bin > nul
echo Done!
pause


Start the created file.

Step the third - unpacking of game archive.
Create a file data_extract.bat, copy in it the following code:
extract rom_data\data\data.bin data
pause


Start a file.

Step the fourth - extraction of images
Create a file images_extract.bat, copy in it the following code:
ImgConv-dd data images
pause


Start a file. In a folder images will appear a picture.

-------------------------------------
All files it images folder, i translate. but many little images i can't extract from rom

.

Extracting it isnt the problem, I can do all that perfectly fine. Its recompressing them that gets me. If you have any source code for that it'd be much appreciated.

By the way I'm currently documenting the game's arm9 binary based on the source code that's included in the file system.

Sorry for bump. Any progress on re-compression tool?

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
