Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix Translation Patch (In progress)

To save you some sanity I say leave it as is right now. Well that's what I say at least.

 

I'll take it as preferred on, then? lol

It's not that hard, just a room for me to miss something. Atm, it doesn't affect the save menu, for example. And finding the values is as simple as searching for a pattern, changing the number, searching again. I'll see where I get by tonight, and release whatever I have (this is more-or-less, the last thing atm).

Also, it can affect alignment of the font, so better do it now if I'm going to do it....

 

Then go on ahead. Sadly I can only really translate the Japanese that people are having a hard time with in the ARDs since I can't edit them quickly and efficiently in UltraEdit or your ARD editor sadly. I tried at least. :D

 

Well if you put it that way, you might as well do it, it does look much better like that anyway.
EDIT: you know this project is truly starting to get some great progess with the font issues being fixed, with that said if the text box sizes could be fixed that would really be the icing on the cake. :D

 

Apply away man!
Maybe you should make it optional though. Like add all your new menu changes to the translation drive, but the widescreen font version of those files to the porting drive.

Also as far as what I'm working on goes, I should be done with everything sometime tonight (yay finally). Then, once everything is uploaded I'll make that long-awaited tutorial video. I would rather type something up instead but most people here would prefer something visual.

Dude I KNOW RIGHT! That's the only thing we can't figure out yet!

 

Uploaded files: http://crazycatz00.x10host.com/KH/files/mod_FinalMixEnglishFiles.7z (also updated drive)
This update affects btltbl.bin, kanji.knj, SLPS_251.98, wm.x, gumi/SASAMSG.BIN, gumi/SASAOMSG.BIN, menu/md_memo_sysmsg.bin, worldmap/INSMSG.BIN, worldmap/INSOMSG.BIN, worldmap/psel.bin, worldmap/SAWDMSG.BIN, and worldmap/SAWDOMSG.BIN.
All of these need to be updated in your ISOs!
String mapper has been updated for these (yesterday, actually).

Also uploaded atad.irx, which is a modded version to allow non-$ony HDD (and possibly 48LBA support, not sure on that one).

 

I'm sure the sizes are located somewhere, if not in the ARDs then maybe one of the other files? If it was another file it could take long to find it, however considering we know what quite a few of them are (ARDs, textures, movesets, weapons and such) all we would have to do is look though the files we haven't figured out. However it would make much more sense if the sizes were located in the ARDs.

 

Gonna throw you some of my OCD so watch out :P

The comma on the new spacing is still a bit large.
Everything else is SPOT ON though!



The bottom text is the FM modded version. And no this isn't an actual game screenshot lol, I just quickly photoshopped both lines together to show the difference.

 

Hmm.. the Ys' are different.

 

To be honest ALL the capitals look different.
EDIT: Am I the only one that thinks we should start the whole nitpicking thing after the translation is done? That is unless things have to done now. Like the smaller text for example.

 

Crazycat most likely didn't bother replacing the font capitals in Final Mix with the US font

 

That makes sense now that i think about it. Crazycatz is that true?

 

Yeah it's true, the funky capital letters are from japanese FM. I can edit the subtitle font to look like the US version if I wanted to, but since the US version capitals are much smaller I have no idea how to adjust the size. So it'll look like the english version, but have the same spacing as my screenshot above. crazycat knows how to do it but other things are more important than this atm.

On another note I had to redo a few subtitle alignments because of the new files. I won't be at my computer till much later tonight (typing from work). When I get home I'll need to review a few more things before everything I've worked on gets uploaded. I added a new column in the translation status spreadsheet labeled "Adjustment %". When that number hits 100% it's pretty much perfect aside from the different message box sizes. Sorry that I keep telling ya'll that I'm uploading soon when its been days :P

 

Well like i said it's probably best if we focus on the translation first, and then the perfection.

 

So u want to do google hangout tonight ?

 

I'd like to finish everything first. Not trying to sound mean or anything but I'm a bit less productive when I'm talking to 4+ people at once :P

 

I'll join, but only because it's my last night of Summer.

 

If u want . Can u upload the files when u get done ?

 

Well yeah Sora. Of course he will

 

I have uploaded Dive to the Heart & Olympus Coliseum ARDs.

I haven't finished Disney Castle & Destiny Islands ARDs yet because I've been busy lately.
Those will be done soon, I'm not mentioning any date because every time I do it never happens :p

When you download the new files and test for yourself, please read the README in each of those folders.



EDIT: I also uploaded Hollow Bastion ARDs in the In-Progress folder.
THOSE ARE NOT TRANSLATED AT ALL! Only the Unknown cutscene and locations are done!
I uploaded it as a starting point to whoever wants to work on it.

EDIT2: Please make sure you are using crazycatz' new files otherwise things may look off-center to you when they really aren't!
