Yakuza Kiwami PS3 English Patch

Two in a row. Thank you Batu-Han. I will try them asap.

Edit: Is the translation compatible with the 1.04 update?

 

is this the same thing like yakuza 0 ? just the in game or a complet translation?

 

Hey, thanks a ton for this, been waiting a while to play Kiwami ver since I got to on my friend's PS4. I got something to report: the game soft locks on a substory at the parking lot where there's a lot of people gathered (I assume it's the substory for the fast dodging guy), no dialogue shows up and I can't advance in any way so I had to exit the game and just avoid that story. Can you see if it's happening in your end too? Thanks a lot for this translation, cheers

 

I don't know if it's Komaki, it's the place where the Artful Dodger is in the other games, in the Shichifuku street parking lot

The game locks up like this when you get close to him

 

That's awesome! Is it the same as Zero patсh? Like no cutscenes translation, etc? Will you do any updates for these translations, like adding subtitles for cutscenes when you figure out how to do them and everything else that was not translated?

 

Im stuck at the loading screen when i start the game. Is it just long or something is wrong?

 

you need the 1.01 update before booting the game, otherwise it loops at the loading screen. This happens with 0, kiwami and ishin

 

Sorry for the double post, i found out you don't need any 1.01 update for the game, it will work but you would get issues later on. on HEN, you just need to resign for 3.55 (i used latest PS3 ISO Tools which did that automatically)
Also, in order to play substory 36 i just deleted the game installed data, reinstalled it without patching and played that part in japanese. i advise to do the same because you could accidentally trigger the substory by going in the parking lot, locking the game.
Here's a video of the substory if you want to understand what's going on:

To fight him, select the top option. After the fight, select the top option again. After it's done, save and reapply the english patch

 

Cutscenes would have to be individually edited. You couldn't just copy and paste the English auth.par's onto the PS3 Japanese pars, because the location of the cutscene subtitles (in the cmn.bin) is different in the English release than they were in the Japanese release. (The subtitles themselves are located towards the bottom in the English version, compared to the Japanese where it's towards the top.) It just would be too much work to change the subtitles for this because nobody *really* would use it.

 

Not to mention there are some parts in the game without subtitles at all in the japanese release, like when you hold R2 to follow a character, they always talk about something and it's not subtitled in the original release. It may be possible to add the subtitles, but it would take a lot of time. hell, i'd do it just for fun but i don't have much free time

 

It definitely IS possible to add cutscenes to Ishin at least, the Ishin translation server has done it and they run on the same engine but like, it's not worth it tbh.

 

that's right, i forgot about that. man, i can't wait to replay ishin in english
