v0.51 (24.05.2024)
- Added missing honorifics (Nall, Mirage)
- Fixed typos from the screenshots shown in the thread (thanks @drsnow)
- Changed pizza to curry. Because for some reason the translator didn't like the curry?
- Changed several descriptions of dishes that completely did not match the original.

This is for the Japanese voices, right? I was confused because I usually play dub but realized that this problem happens with putting on a Japanese voice track.

Any translation mod is always created by people and for people who want a more authentic experience of what the creators worked on. It is obvious that dubbing is not even considered in the first place by people who care.

Bros, I'm gonna be real with you, for the most authentic experience you need to LJ.
Learn Japanese.
Yes, I know, it's a tall ask.
This mod is extremely valuable too, of course.

I've made a PC version for the 0.5. (see attached file, extract it to your game directory). I tested it briefly, working as expected :

View attachment 436101

The assets files between the switch version 1.1 and the latest PC version are the same except for one byte in the header (not sure if it's important, it's after the unity version). I changed it anyway. Switch on the left, PC on the right :

I used SO2Rcrypt to decrypt and encrypt the assets files. (check the user SO2Reversing on github)

So if you want to make a PC release, you need to :
- (in case there is an update) Make sure the files are still the same between the Switch and PC versions.
- Change the byte after the second instance of the unity version (2021.3.22f1) in the header from 0x26 to 0x13 with an hex editor (the address is not always the same). I use Hex Workshop personally.
- Encrypt the asset files with SO2Rcrypt.
Im glad someone found my tool and was able to put it to use haha.
Let me know if I can make any changes to make it more useful.

v0.95f (25.08.2024)
- Added missing honorifics
- Corrected several sentences
- Final touches

You can consider this mod as completed.
I assume that there may still be something left that I have overlooked (having simply not seen the particular event), so if anyone still finds something, feel free to paste it in this topic.

I would appreciate it if someone would compile a PC version. I will add it to the first post.
Thanks.

Just tried to use the patch, but for some reason my game doesn't boot when it's installed. I'm on v1.1.0 and using atmosphere 1.7.1 with the titleid 010065301A2E0000, so I'm not sure what's going on. Any suggestions?

Not booting up, like at all?
I didn't try the latest update of my patch on my switch (just booted up in yuzu). I'll try it later, but it should work.
Anyone can confirm it?
