Ah, didn't even think of that, it does make sense though. Guess I'll be patching the ROM, very interested in trying this!
I might be able to look into this, my guess is that the region needs to be forced to Japanese to display proper. Could easily be done via exefs patches or NTR's region change stuff.As others said, it's possible but I tried to keep things as legal as possible (as much as you can with fan translations, anyway).
For anyone who wants to extract the patched data and make a layeredFS patch for their own use, the following files are modified:
Disc1/f0006.bin
Disc1/f1239.bin
Disc1/f1240.bin
Disc1/f1245.bin
Disc1/f1247.bin
Disc1/f1248.bin
Disc1/f1249.bin
Disc1/f1250.bin
Disc1/f1252.bin
Please note that any method other than loading with Gateway seems to be bugged when it comes to the character names (region issue?) so you'll run into bugs if you go with the layeredFS approach.
Out of all of the things of your post of today, I like the text glitches in particular.oh god
Yeah, I really liked the battle system, I will not be skip it. My goal - finishing the game in 100%, with all secrets, so perhaps I'll find most of the untranslated text. Sadly, I'll never know what it says, because I will not play the game a second time.ambassador seems to be hitting way more untranslated test than i ever did.....probably mostly battle text as i was cheating so battles were over pretty quick
yeah that was my original plan when i was doing the beta testing, but then i lost my save about 3/4 of the way through, so in an effort to just rush through and report any major bugs before people reached them i decided to just cheat and get through it all as fast as possible

How to cheat?yeah that was my original plan when i was doing the beta testing, but then i lost my save about 3/4 of the way through, so in an effort to just rush through and report any major bugs before people reached them i decided to just cheat and get through it all as fast as possible
