Hey.
There's this really awesome WonderSwan game called 'Rockman & Forte: Mirai Kara no Chousensha!', roughly translated as 'Megaman & Bass: a Challenger from the Future!'. It's Japanese, and my goal is to translate it with your help.
There's not much text in the game, or so it seems.. I've got most of the text system down, but there are some parts in the game yet unhackable to me. If anyone is interested in this project, be sure to dowload a WonderSwan emulator and try the game out. It's super sweet.
I would've attached a document with some of my notes, but the forums have no such feature. I'll just type in a snippet:
0x26178 - Scrolling introduction text.
--------- First byte:
------------------ First nibble:
--------------------------- Row of tile
------------------ Second nibble:
--------------------------- Column of tile
--------- Second byte:
------------------ First nibble:
--------------------------- Bit 0 = Brighten
--------------------------- Bit 1 = Darken
--------------------------- Bit 2 = Horizontal flip
--------------------------- Bit 3 = Vertical flip
------------------ Second nibble:
--------------------------- Bit 0 = Palette configuration ()
--------------------------- Bit 1 = Palette configuration ()
--------------------------- Bit 2 = Palette configuration ()
--------------------------- Bit 3 = Graphics page
The palette configurations have really no use, so translating the dialog will be no problem without figuring them out.
Either way, it's a great game, and I'd love to see it translated. Be sure to mention if you're interested.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, I don't know Japanese at all.. What I'm trying to imply here is that I can do most of the hacking, but the actual purpose of this thread is to get someone who knows Japanese to help me out.
