Translation Translating Shantae Risky's Curse to Spanish (and other languages)

[jonhon]

Around 2019 someone tried to backport the official Spanish translation of the Shantae Risky's Curse Direct Cut version to the DSIware version. But it seems that the project didn't progress much.
(can't post link because I'm a new user)

I began to investigate the methods used to decrypt and modify the game files. .
You only need to extract the .loctext file from the DSi Rom (using TinkDSI) and decrypt it with Autoit V3 script tools.
then you can modify the extracted text file however you want.
the .loctext files of the DSiware version and the DC version are almost the same and therefore it's quite easy to replace the dialog lines

I was considering of doing the translation for myself but replacing each line of text is too time consuming for me. Besides that I'm not very familiar with the game.

hope someone else is interested in this project. or at least getting some extra help

Y al final abandonaste o seguiste con la traducción (˘･_･˘)
And in the end you abandoned or continued with the translation (˘･_･˘).

I was hoping someone with hacking experience would take interest in this project.
had a problem with the text encoding, and I don't know how to solve it.
Again, the process of inserting the text, encoding it, adding it to the rom, having to install the dsiware everytime , its too time consuming for me

Good luck with the translation.
In the forum they hate people who speak Spanish.

Que triste, tampoco es como que pueda ayudar, no entender (・_・
How sad, it's not like I can help either, I don't understand (・_・

This isn't a translation, I'm just inserting the official translation of the PC version to the DSiware version.
Also, in theory it is also possible to backport the other available languages.

My Virtual Machine with all the files broke, so it's very hard to me to continue the project.

I found about this Portuguese translation of Shantae RR, there is a lot of useful information that can help.
( I can't post the link but you can find it searching for "[3DS/DSi] Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Tradução PT-BR" and going to the github page)

(Also fixed the Virtual Machine)
