I'm definitely interested in both this and the Persona 2 IS translation..I haven't played any SMT games yet, but I've seen my friend play Nocturne and it looks awesome. I'll be watching these Megaten projects closely, I can assure you....I want my first Persona playthrough to be as complete and accurate as can be.

Hi all, first post.

I just dropped by to say how much I appreciate the work you guys are doing and to offer my services.

I just finished playing through Persona after years of being separated from this work of art (I got the bad ending BTW). I noticed after a few minutes of playing that my favorite character, Yuki had wandered off and dissapeared early in the game. This lead me to the Snow Queen, then to the Japanese version, and finally here. The bottom line: I want to play the Snow Queen quest in English and I am willing to help or at the very least pump you guys for information.

I know almost nothing about psx modding, but am a quick study when it comes to computers. In fact, I don't think I've played a game without eventually hacking it in one way or another. I have all the free time in the world, except the occasional homework for Devry, so I'm more than available. I'll be studying up on psx hacking and checking back here every now and again for news and updates. Maybe someone could point me towards some tutorials or give me the basics for changing the Japanese text to English? Thanks.

Lol, that would be a good place to start. Thanks!

Good job Gemini, just as expected. I haven't identified all of the kanji yet. So i think it would take much more time to identified it all. Maybe if someone could help identifying all of the kanji through Gemini's script dumper, that would be greatly appreciated. Or if someone already starting it, give an info on this thread if possible.

Oops, my mistake. Sorry Guys, I was assuming that Gemini is making a script dumper application for megami ibunroku and he would submit it in here, it turned out that maybe he's creating it for his own personal use. Sorry Gemini, I should've checked it first.

And in the Script Help and Language Discussion board, there's someone already identifying the kanji. Thanks to Gemini for that great post.

Can't you make them less frequent by hacking?

*dies*

Wow, I never thought you would give in and dump the script Gemini.  You are my hero. 

Glad your starting to appreciate the game a little (I have a huge soft spot for it as you know ), I think it's one of the only games where's I'd hands down play the Japanese version over the English one.

It's stored in FONT.BIN (heh). The format is 16x16 1bpp, so you can dump that with a simple feidian script.

Unfortunately that won't work with item and spell names (probably monsters, too). :/ They are all fixed length, which means extra hacking for allowing longer names. >_> And 16x16 VWF isn't very easy to do on this game...
