i have a question.....!
it's forum-related, so I figured I'd post it here


I'm currently hacking an NDS game, Japanese -> English translation. Is it OK to post the patch on the TSR forums (and possibly make a topic detailing its progress)?

I can't speak for the tSR staff, but game patches aren't illegal per se, so it should be ok.

I love fan translation patches for games that will obviously never get translated. I'll worship whoever does iM@S SP forever.

Actually, this is going to change the topic entirely x3

But it's actually a game that IS translated, but it's more like they took the engine, slapped completely different characters in it and called it a new game.


kinda like Doki Doki Panic
...it's a Naruto game :[

so the game as-is will never be released so instead they give us a poor excuse of a game with nearly all the content ripped out and a few new characters "to make up for it"

but yeah, it's mostly just an exercise in DS hacking. It's also to coincide with my comic Mangekyo Sharing Time, which ironically is a Naruto sprite comic made purely to spite every single Naruto fancomic in the history of its existence.

Bah, I was hoping for something like Doki Doki Majo Shinpan. Sad

I don't see why not, though. (Just convince some other romhacker to at least extract the text from the iM@S PSP games)

No ideia. You see, most translation projects, even for games, stop when there is a official translation ongoing. So maybe it's OK.

I hear that game's incredibly tough to work on. Probably because no one can find the ingame font/find the text pointers within the ROM ):

This game's 100% text, that's why I'm doing it x3

Oh look at how she listens... She says nothing of what she thinks.
She just goes stumbling through her memories staring out onto Grey Street.
But she thinks, "Hey... How did I come to this? I dreamed myself a million times around the world but I can't get out of this place."
There's an emptiness inside her and she'd do anything to fill it in.
And though its red blood bleeding from her now, it felt like cold blue ice in her heart.
When all the colors mix together to grey, and it breaks her heart...

How she wishes it was different... She prays to God almost every night.
And though she swears He doesn't listen, there's a hope in her that he just might.
She says "I pray! Oh, but they fall on deaf ears... Am I supposed to take it on myself to get out of this place?"

Didn't you know? It's illegal to patch games if you're under 13. It's the Law.

But seriously, 5205, make your own threads for your own questions unless they're logically related, otherwise that counts as 'thread hi-jacking'.
