So I saw the DQ9 menu translation thread, and it got me interested in the whole process. Not so much hacking a rom, but being able to find and replace the various image files (in DQ9's case, the files for Japanese chars and names).
I am reasonably familiar with the hex-editing stuff, but the files in the /data folder, .spr, .chr extensions, I am having trouble getting a good look at what's in them. Is the hex editor not enough, or am I just rustier than I remember at this? LAst major nod I did was working with the rest of the Co* team for the unofficial ToEE PC game.
Sorry if this is the wrong spot for this or if the info is already there and I just didn't see it, and thanks for any potential help.
