はじめる means start

The gibberish at the top is irrelevant

When you see English letters on screen that are the same as buttons on the controller, just figure out what they do.

>>6757652
>No, the retroarch translator doesnt work
Yes, the retroarch translator works.

>>6758339
not when I tried it

The NES and GBC versions got translated.

before some other retarded EOP shits up your thread even more here's your answer: $0. Just learn Japanese on your own, it's free

>tfw i'm a competent reverse engineer and a rom hacker but i don't know any japanese
damn

i'm dead serious though, if you can find me a (legitimately good) Japanese translator i'll gladly take a look at it

Just learn Japanese and stop complaining and wasting time.

>>6760806
here's the font
identify these glyphs and i can get a script dump

>>6757652
i can speak japanese i'll translate it for you bro

stop whining and go play yankee games then 害人

>>6761386
eat my ass, weeb

>>6761389
so you want "weebs" to translate a japanese game for you because you're a lazy faggot who doesn't want to invest any work to get what you want. but you're toooottally not a weeb even though you're begging for translations of japanese shit.

>>6761393
translation of 1 game. Im already learning a romance language and Im willing to pay someone who wants to translates games to do their job

>>6761402
you are the weeaboo, faggot. you're here begging for a translation of a JAPANESE game, yet you're too much of a low IQ lazy weeb-ass turd to learn to fish (heh) for yourself. you're not entitled to other people's time and expertise. people who actually take the time to learn a country's language so they can engage in its culture are not weeaboos like you, they know what they like and they're not expecting other people to spoonfeed them. firstly kill yourself for this poor attempt at insulting the people who actually put in the work to be in a position to translate shit for you and other weeb morons, and secondly kill yourself for making this thread in the first place instead of spending that time learning to read.

>>6761434
I know how to fish, though. Stop projecting
>NOOOOOOOOOOOO you cant just have people do their job and pay them for it, YOU HAVE TO DO IT YOURSELF

>>6760712
>it's free
no thing that requires wasting time is free

>>6761447
begging for translations on the internet is a bigger waste of time.

>>6761443
alright, I'll do a script translation for 20 yen per character. that means if there are 500 text boxes with 20 characters average it will cost you 200,000 jpy or about 2000 usd.
if you want to pay for editing and romhacking on top of that go for it, if the script has to be compressed due to technical restrictions afterwards it's not my problem, it's a low-ish rate for j->e translation.

>>6761462
lmao, fuck off thief

>>6761468
>Please be aware that this data does not necessarily reflect the average of rates actually charged and paid for real-world projects; it is only an aggregate view of the rates that users have entered into their ProZ.com profiles
feel free to pay 5 cents a character to someone who will throw the whole thing in google translate though.

I cracked the compression now, I can probably get some graphics banks extracted soon-ish.
Is this thread gonna be just memeing or can anyone help with >>6760838 ?

>>6761828
I'll need $1k in advance

>>6761863
Ironic shitposting is still shitposting.

>>6761924
Expertise isn't free, kiddo.

>>6761941
Every single fan translation has been done without a monetary incentive. Since the dawn of ROM hacking, it has been a gentleman's agreement that you don't mix money into this shit. This is all done by hobbyists and if the only thing you can think about is how to jew your way in, we don't want you helping in the first place.

>>6757652
IT'S NEWHALF, ITS NOT TRANSLATED AS TRANNY YOU BIGOT

>>6761964
And the large majority of fan translators don't know Japanese (audience gasps in shock). That's right, most fan translators do it not out of the kindness of their hearts, but as an opportunity to learn themselves (and mistranslate a bunch of stuff in the process).
Not that you'd know if you're an EOP.

>>6761967
calm down

>>6761978
You're 100% wrong - the "one guy both hacking and translating as a learning experience" is a general outlier in the scene and it is much more common for competent ROM hackers (who don't know japanese) to extract a script dump, find a competent translator (who in turn don't know how to hack) and work together.
Bold of you to assume I'm English at all, though :D I'm a trilingual European.

>>6762012
1. You don't know Japanese, therefore you don't know shit.
2. You speak English and 2 irrelevant languages (probably one poorly), hence you are an EOP.

>>6761983
I will not, Fascist

>>6762017
Doesn't matter - I can still hack ROMs and you can't. A kind hearted translator working with me can release a patch and bring joy to countless individuals around the world as long as they understand English. You can not do that.

>>6762024
[brrrraaaappppp]

>>6762028
I'm a software engineer and am fluent and Japanese so no, I could easily do both if I cared. I don't because I have better shit to do than tediously translate a game when I could just play it (or countless others) in Japanese. I'd rather spend my free time working on something interesting like writing free software.

>>6762036
>and Japanese
typoed "in"

>>6762036
Everything about this post is wrong. There is no way you could hack a game to a translated state "easily" and I have serious doubts you know any assembly at all.

>>6762042
>everything about this post is wrong
>source: my ass
fan translation is tedious, not hard.

>>6762045
How many fan translations have you authored? Where you have done both, the hacking and the translation? What systems?

>>6762047
He's being kind of a dick but he's right though.
It's tedious, not hard.
At least from the translator point of view. No clue on the programming part but must be as boring as if not worse.

>>6762028
Give me somewhere to contact you besides here, I am willing to translate for you

>>6762073
If you can type out the Unicode glyphs of this >>6760838 I'll get a script dump.

>>6760806
can you get half width text working in PS1 or PC98 games? I've tried romhacking before to get text out and decrypted in games but that's where I give up

>>6757652
Just stop being an EOP already.

>>6762121
Not that guy, but if you can wait I can type all of them.

>>6762416
you made some mistakes

>>6762418
>>6762416
This should work fine, thank you! Minor mistakes are alright and things should make sense when I get context clues.

>>6757652
OP, dump the script and I can help translate.

>>6760838
are you the same guy who was working on romhacking WildCard last year?

>>6762024
is that Hardcore Gaming guy ever not a faggot crybaby?

>>6762993
Is Newhalf used as a slur? If so I guess tranny would be an accurate translation. If it's not, then trans or something else non-offensive would be more appropriate.

>>6763012
Even if it was something "non-offensive", HG101 and his ilk would still find some reason to be offended by it. He has a long track record of being a crybaby.

>>6763012
It's not a slur, though it is old-fashioned and mostly only used as a porn category these days
I think "tranny" is too strongly insulting compared to newhalf so I'd go with one of these:
1) transsexual -- sounds appropriately old-fashioned
2) shemale -- to go with the "it's used that way in porn" angle
3) newhalf -- screw it, make 'em look it up on the internet

>>6762565
I have no idea how to do that. I found this though

docs.google(COM)/spreadsheets/d/1z-7fsTTr4Yw-WemHehB0khw8L67hRGcPJ6wizr7ooBU/edit?usp=sharing

https://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php?topic=28878.0

I will pay though, if you find it in your heart to do so. But Im not a richfag

>>6757652
Learn Japanese, weaboo

This thread again.... >_<

>>6763470
i want tripfags to leave

>>6763692
that's a namefag

>>6763470
>"princess"
you will never be a woman

>>6763464
That is good enough. Leave me something so I can contact you if the thread is deleted(even a recently created email for a single use is enough). No money needed, btw.

>>6763464
Wait, is that all the dialogue that's in the game?
I could help too, then.

>>6763830
Be careful, though. Looking at the script there and the game, many kanji don't agree with, perhaps because of the wrong unicode someone posted above.

>>6763464
Because not all Kanji are the right one, it's going to take a while, but I'm posting there as I translate some lines.

Goddamn i wish more people did translations this way. Soul eater translation did it that way too. Dump a public script and let people who gave a damn go to town on it.

>>6763470
This nigger again... >_<

>>6763464
Is this complete? I have found scripts in the game that is not there, pic related is an example.

>>6763994
Maybe the "mountain bat" part is a variable and the sentence is generated.
There should be a list of monsters and one (1) instance of this sentence with only the verb (can be hardcoded elsewhere)

>>6764214
Yeah, I found the "が現れた!" there. The problem right now is how most kanji are not the same as in the game so it makes it a lot harder. So I'm playing and finding the same scripts and translating them.

>>6763464
Btw, man. A lot of fish names are simple in Japanese(like 4 or so words) but they american name is way too fucking big. Amur minnow(a fish) is just アブラハヤ in Japanase.

>>6764415

>>6764415
it's k dude just write Fsh1, Fsh2, Fsh3, and if you get to 10 skip the h ^_^

>>6763812
are you sure? I feel bad not giving anything in return

>>6764583
There is no problem. This way is better for me, I don't like to help for attention so a way to help without getting my name/username attached is better. Plus, I'm also enjoying playing the game so it's a win-win situation for me.

>>6761487

You need to stop posting and get back to prepping Tyrone's cock, anon. Your wife is getting less patient and you have to pick their son this afternoon from school (unless you want your video game privileges revoked again).

That's what newhalf has always meant, tranny.

>>6763012

It's making mockery of the transvestite who's using it. It's really not this hard Just play the game instead of armchair translating if you're really this curious.

Wtf

>>6765217
Pro tip, anyone that does it that fast likely has no idea what the fuck they're doing and is making tons of mistakes.

>>6765235
They are mostly small sentences like:
エサが無い。[END OF STRING]
毛バリを持っていない。[END OF STRING]
and so on...
There is quite a small number of dialogues so far. Those are the ones that took me more time.

>>6765243
>There is quite a small number of dialogues

Is English not your native language? Now I definitely don't trust you not to make mistakes.

>>6765250
Nope, it's my fourth language. And I don't expect my translation to be the final version. There is a column for revised translation there, after all.

>>6765250
>Now I definitely don't trust you not to make mistakes
You could always learn japanese and play it yourself.

>>6765235
There are still apologists for that guy who had a Patreon for "translating" games via Google Translate or some other machine translation. EOPs are shit eaters, they don't care about accuracy as long as they have the illusion that they understand the game.

>>6765256
>it's my fourth language
lmao, your 3 latin classes in school don't count faggot

>>6765262
>t. assblasted americlapper

You guys could help or ignore the guy translating it. Soon or later someone will make a better translation, if someone else ever translate it.

imagine EOPs ever contributing to anything

>>6765327
>everyone who speaks english is either clapistanian or from bongland
Yeah, you're a Clapper alright.

>>6765343
>if someone else ever translate it.
This is the sole reason for all the autistic screeching in the thread. Things that get a "good enough" translation often never get anyone else bothering to improve on it later. After all, it's technically been done once. This causes the weeaboo to enter a state of complete mental breakdown. Now there's basically no chance that the glorious Nipponese language and the profoundly deep narrative found in this, uh, fishing simulation game will ever be done justice. (Not that any translation could ever truly convey the complex nuances of the sacred Japingoo moon speech found in decades old electronic children's toys, mind you.)

>>6765431

This but unironically

>>6765431
it may be a fishing simulator, but its a COMFY fishing sim

>>6765431
Makes sense. Still somewhat translation is better than no translation. In the end, the only guy that will surely enjoy it is the one asking for translation. So good for him, I guess.

>>6762024
They could have just used he-she desu it's not as bad

>>6765445
That's not true, no translation is better.

>>6762342
Lmao knock that shit off.

>>6765260
Are you still seething that people are enthusiastically doing something as a group effort instead of paying you for your "expertise" :D

>>6766224
Are you insane? An okay translation is always better than no translation at all.
>>6765403
These "EOPs" you seem to loathe are usually the brains behind the actual hacking, you know. Choke on your hubris.

>>6766435
I don't recall a single situation where one of those translations has actually helped improve the situation.
All it does is expose the game to undesirables.

>>6766480
>improve the situation
Improve the situation? What situation? What the fuck are you on about dude?
>expose the game to undesirables
Ah, that's right, gatekeeping 25 year old fishing video games. The undesirables just don't "get" the deep intricacies of fishing.

>>6762416
Your cat skipped a line somewhere near here:
>京旅理利欲宝辺腹

了旅理利欲宝辺腹
復負富扉箱泊売度

>>6763464
Could you please change the [LINEBREAK] and [SPACE] to something more compact? I find the Japanese really hard to read with that much latin in between.

>>6762416
Another skipped line.
>憶供戸礼差祈宿七
>対鍵角弱散拓沖五

Should be:
憶供押珍唱族安戻
医井戸礼差祈宿七
対鍵角弱散拓沖五

Might be other such mistakes, I'm done for now.

>>6764415
Why not call it just a minnow?

>>6766568
Because there's more than one species of minnow.
It should be called R. lagowskii which would reduce most ambiguity.

>>6766220
>They could have just used he-she
Considering their modern day doctrine of "personal pronouns", that would be even more confusing and might win even more outrage from them.

>>6760712
>google translate works great!
It just works for me.
Do you realize you're talking about a fishing game for children? This isn't literature. Not you would know the difference, manchild weeaboo.

>>6766668
No, it's a fishing RPG for children. A huge difference.

Get off your high horse, man. No ROM hacker has ever had as insufferable attitude as you.

>>6766732
okay then why don't you cry at all those native japanese people for not translating shit into in english? only EOPs give a fuck about those shitty translations, they have zero value outside of that. I spend my time contributing to things that are useful to everyone (except maybe rich fags), not just lazy westerners who expect the world to cater to them

>>6757652
Have you looked at sites like Fiverr? I feel like that would be a great way to find some random japanese language student to help you for little compensation.

>>6766742
no worries bro a random Japanese student is already doing it for free

I don't give a shit about the fishing game and I will never play it. I have not played most of the games I've hacked and I don't personally care for most of the games I hack to completion.
ROM hacking and reverse engineering is a fun and a challenging hobby, and I feel a sense of accomplishment and pride when I get a job well done. Pointers optimised, great translated title/graphics art, etc.

If someone wants to play a fishing rpg for whatever reason, I can rest easy and feel happy knowing that someone who doesn't speak japanese can now do it.
Only zoomers with unwarranted self-importance could only think about Patreon tier incentives to actually be a part of this niche.

We get it, you know japanese and think you're very important. But you must understand that your attitude is really fucking stupid.

>>6766726
Because it makes sense and I'm able to play the game.
And when I compare its results to playthrough videos made by Japanese speakers it's close to how they're translating it.
Fucking moron. Seethe. And keep trying to gatekeep about your children's toys cringelord.
>>6766716
Sometimes I can just smell the fat from a post.

>>6766749
Good for you if you find that interesting but I grew out of that shit after a half dozen times because it was just repetitive. Unless you're hacking software on systems that don't have good toolsets or tackle particularly challenging titles it's hardly going to remain a challenge after the first few times.

>Only zoomers with unwarranted self-importance could only think about Patreon tier incentives to actually be a part of this niche.
wake up grandpa, people are already making loads of money off of other people's labor. want a piece of the pie? better create your own and advertise yourself on reddit and rhdn. this isn't "your niche", it's a side gig

>>6766754
>Because it makes sense and I'm able to play the game.
oh right you're an EOP, you just want to tell yourself you're not missing out, it doesn't matter if it's completely inaccurate as long as the illusion is good enough. honestly dude, i'd laugh but it's more pathetic than anything

>And when I compare its results to playthrough videos made by Japanese speakers it's close to how they're translating it.
you don't know Japanese you dumbfuck

>Fucking moron. Seethe. And keep trying to gatekeep about your children's toys cringelord.
Dilate

>>6766756
What games have you hacked? Legitimately interested, but I'm actually 100% sure that you're just bullshitting and can't do any hacking at all and have never touched a disassembler.

But whatever the case, you do you. Let us have fun and actually make something, you can sit in the sidelines and seethe about how we're "doing it wrong" while at the same time not contributing anything but hate and mean comments.

>>6766773
ty I will ^_^

>>6766762
>tell yourself you're not missing out
Let's see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WgNhnXeTNA
"You can catch bait."
"It's a fish."
"I will give you a fish net."
"I want one of your fish."
"I've just started fishing."
"Some of the bait doesn't work on some of the fish."
You're right! This is some really intricate dialogue. I could never understand this plot using Google Translate, I should learn Japanese so I get the real experience like you.

Imagine if Google Translate mistranslated "I've just started fishing" as "I've started fishing" my whole experience would be inferior to yours for this children's fishing game.

Stupid virgin faggot.

>>6766810
that's funny I watched 2 minutes and didn't see any of those "lines" you wrote while the actual text was more intricate and had actual personality.
>get accents wrong
oops you just ruined the atmosphere and character
>mistranslate words
whoops you can't understand wtf is being said when a sentence is longer than 3 words

and just like that your little EOP ass plays the game wrong, gets stuck because hints aren't translated right, cries that it's dull because of the dry translation and goes back to pokeymen or whatever.

>>6766825
>that's funny I watched 2 minutes and didn't see any of those "lines" you wrote
That's funny they're all there and it's a short video. I guess you really haven't played the game either.
You really are a retard, thanks for exposing yourself.
>the actual text was more intricate and had actual personality.
Like what? Do you have any example? Of course not, you've already been exposed as a liar and a retard.
>and just like that your little EOP ass plays the game wrong, gets stuck because hints aren't translated right
What? I've never needed to but I could just literally watch a walkthrough video if I needed.

And just like that you get BTFO and even more buttmad after being proven wrong, you show everyone you're too stupid to even find the simplest lines in a short video, and become even more humiliated.
Yikes, weeaboo.

>>6766846
>You really are a retard, thanks for exposing yourself.
seethe google translatefag, I bet you think the anglo is translating things accurately
>>6766846
>Like what? Do you have any example?
not telling ;P
>What? I've never needed to but I could just literally watch a walkthrough video if I needed.
ah, the "it's ok if the game is translated so poorly I can't even make it through because I can just cheat instead" argument.
truly, having to use walkthroughs to play games you don't understand is a good way to appreciate them and it doesn't say anything about how well they're translated.
the cope here is through the roof

>Yikes, weeaboo.
wait, you're watching let's plays of japanese games poorly "translated" by westerners so you can get a glimpse of what you can't have, and you're calling someone else a "weeaboo"?
cringe

>>6766856
Hey man, since you know Japanese why don't you help translate it?

>>6766863
okay
さかなmeans fish!

>>6766856
>I bet you think the anglo is translating things accurately
LMAO! So you didn't even watch 2 minutes of the video like you claimed.
The anglo has a Japanese girl translating.
S E E T H E
Feel the seethe deep inside you as you realize how bad you've embarrassed yourself.
>not telling ;P
Sure kiddo. I'm sure there's some super secret dialogue that has to be unlocked that is complex and meaningful. But you haven't even played the game so you wouldn't know.
>good way to appreciate them
You haven't even played them so you haven't appreciated them at all.
>wait, you're watching let's plays of japanese games poorly "translated" by westerners
No, it's translated by a Japanese person. How humiliating for you. In every post you just post more and more wrong information that shows your stupidity.
Oof!

>>6766865
oh no you exposed me for the non-watcher of video I am. how can I ever recover from the world knowing I didn't bother watching 12 minutes of a let's play for EOPs?? how could I ever doubt the untrained Japanese Girlfriend's ability to accurately and completely translate text in real-time? surely that ability comes naturally to all knowers of languages, right little EOP?

it's always hilarious to see the stupid shit EOPs say about languages. look down at your feet, you're at the peak of mt. stupid!

>>6766872
> I didn't bother watching 12 minutes
You didn't bother watching 5 seconds otherwise you would know it's not an anglo translating.

Even on this board I've never seen someone so blatantly lie and get such a beatdown and then get insecure gatekeeping his children's toys. Truly a sad new low.

Remember when you claimed
>the actual text was more intricate and had actual personality.
Well I guess that's out of the question now LOL ;)

>>6766886
yeah I'll admit I just skipped to the first text box I found within those 2 minutes and read that and saw unlike the garbage you wrote it conveyed a personality that you're not aware of because all you know is your shitty google translate and secondhand live translation that doesn't bother conveying that at all.

so basically you think the text doesn't matter because you can't read what's actually in it

You people are getting heated over a goddamn fishing game.

>>6766825
>oops you just ruined the atmosphere and character
Then you have official translations like DQ that add unneeded accents in different towns and yet people praise it.

>>6766890
>it has personality
>but i can't say what it is
>and the japanese translator in the video couldn't say what it is
>but it has a lot of personality believe me
>please believe me
Pathetic imbecile.

>>6766905
Pretty sure those are controversial.
That thing is often framed as a "localization vs. literal translation" argument when actually it's "incompetent rewritten script that turns characters into caricatures vs. incompetent dry script that erases personalities". It's especially common in retro games due to lack of space to convey the original script in English appropriately, but it happens a lot in modern translations too.

When I think of a shitty translation that gets almost universal praise I think of Gyakuten Saiban/Ace Attorney, the characters are completely gutted in English in many cases, and replaying it in Japanese after learning it made me realize how much was lost in translation, an easy example being Mayoi/Maya being the surrogate "how's that kanji read" character while in English those bits make her seem retarded or an excuse to add a forced tutorial.

こら、やめないか。

>>6766932
>Gyakuten Saiban/Ace Attorney
pic related.

Still, there are things I believe it's almost impossible to translate, like accents from a region in Japan that the person translating has no idea of how to "localized" it. Making a character in rural Japan speaks with a Texan accent just to show he speaks different from the rest is shit.

>>6766950
True, Japanese accents/dialects don't map well to European languages. And that applies to this game too. Any attempt to localize the inakakko speak will make it feel totally different, but ignoring it is arguably even worse.

Fucking hell, and for once I was thinking a translation thread wouldn't go to shit.

Jesus.
Next time, OP, don't do a translation thread on /vr/. It always goes to shit.

the decompression function is at 00:E6FD and it starts with LDA ($3E).
At said $3E you find a pointer to the start of the compressed data. In the first case it's 20E430 and sure enough if you visit that address you'll find a word that determines output size. After that it's just pretty simple LZ decompression.

>>6767005
don't blame OP, just ignore the weebfag

I'm logging the compressed data now, I'll try to capture as many samples as I can. I just set an execute breakpoint to E6FD and now i'm just playing the game, writing every address at $3E down every time the debugger halts

>>6767059
just ignore the truth bro

Been playing the game while putting the original sentences in the link because they have the wrong kanji for most of them. That will make it easier for someone that knows good Japanese to check the translation and fix it if required. Or just look, make fun(or not) and move on.

>>6766762
This is a lot of ironic typing for some waste of space that decided to learn Japanese when they where 15 and think somehow any one cares. I get it. You have no friends and need to cry online about how much time you wasted so you could play Segagaga, but don't want to own up to your depression or erectile disfunction

>>6767040
You missed the script in this part, pic related.

>>6767212
Pic related is the script to that part. It agrees with what comes before and after in the script with the memories in those locations.

decompressing still –there's a bunch of glyphs as graphics here and there.

>>6763464
Please, use this:
>>6767385
>>6767391
so that it have all the right kanji. It will make the translator's job easier since he will not have to finish the game 4 times + get the extra ending to check if all the script is right.

>>6767396
Probably part of the status/menu screen, pic related.

This one is based on the location you are.
The menu also changes depending on the fishing gear you are using:
エサ = bait
毛バリ = fly lure
ルアー = fishing lure

Depending on the fish you want to catch, you need to use a bait fishing rod and a lure rod.

>>6767281
Alright you little bastard I'll give you my name: John K. Joe McCain. Remember it well. I'm American, have a BMI of 36 and am an excellent romhaxor. In case you forget I'll remind you of it by blogging about the addresses I find so you can be impressed because you can't understand that I'm doing trivial busywork.

>>6767528
Are you ok, mate?

>>6767538
No I'm not, respect me, you must respect me, I can't speak Japanese but I. CAN. ROMHAX!!!!!!!!!!

The meaning of "ぬしNushi" is not "king".In Japanese, [Nushi] means a special creature living in the rivers and mountains that is different in size and color.It is the creature that stands at the top of the place, which is rarely seen and we don't even know if it really exists.

I'm a Japanese who just happened to see it.I've also played the sequel to this game on the PC engine.

>>6767212
After reading the book, I decided to go out fishing for nushi

>>6767610
直訳ないからしょうがない
第一英語じゃ文字数多くていろいろ略さないと入らないから別物になって当然だ

>>6767610
I was curious about that. The game has 4 characters, each of them go out to fish the "river king". But for each of them, the fish is different, so I was wondering if "river king" was the right term.

>>6767628
The problem with that script is that the "I" in your translation is a variable for the player's character's name. In a lot of those, you have no idea where the variable(or variables) is(are) because the person who did that google sheet really did a poor job.

>>6767642
Nushi is often described as a sacred and special creature's.A creature that is exceptionally large, beautiful, or sometimes evil is called a nushi.

>>6767689
>A creature that is exceptionally large, beautiful, or sometimes evil is called a nushi.
That explains why one of the 4 fishes is a Namazu.

>>6767697
I guess that's because catfish namazu was believed to cause earthquakes in ancient Japan.

>>6762024
What does TW mean?

>>6767715
Trigger warning.

>>6767715
It's translated correctly.When that game came out, I think it was around the time when transsexual talent was first becoming popular in Japan.

>>6767750
>transsexual talent
What talent?

Got the title screen stuff out now. What should the translated title be? Just "Legend of the River King 2" or wut

>>6767793
Gotta go full american. The Johnsons' Great Fishing Adventure 2.

>>6767771
Sorry for the confusion, I think comedian is the right word.

>>6767831
>actually going through the trouble of translating the game 100% but completely unnecessarily bastardising the product along the way, changing onigiris to hamburgers and editing the graphics of all the characters to buff murican men
desu it would be pretty fucking funny

got most graphics out now, i think. still a few graphical glyphs in there but i'll try to compile them to a list

>>6767851
Just like old official translations and for games like Ace Attorney?

>>6767793
A literal translation of the title into English would be.
Fishing the river nushi 2
If you could use it as a subtitle, I'd be happy as a Japanese man.

>>6767865
never played them but i saw the comic so i guess there's some truth to that

also level data's here too (not that it's needed here but still, interesting)

>>6767771
He meant "tarento" literally celeb.
He's either a Japanese or someone who thinks they understand Japanese culture.

>>6767793
Yeah man, just legend of the river king 2.
Just ignore the weebs and write what you see fit.
No literal translations would ever work. If someone dislikes it they can go fuck themselves.

>>6767793
Legend of the River King 2 is Kawa no Nusi Turi 4 which came out for the Game Boy Color.
It should be called Legend of the River King 0 or Alpha 2.

>>6767865
cmon, you know you wanna eat some juicy burgers with maya

>>6767934
>Legend of the River King 2 is Kawa no Nusi Turi 4
Damn, that sucks.

>>6767949
Just realized the first GB game has a small "GBC" after the name.
Then that makes this Legend of the River King 2 Snes?

>>6767916
I'm not fluent in English, so I'm writing this while translating in deepl.Sorry if my English sounds funny!
I was just writing this because I missed kawa no nushi turi.

>>6767793
How about Legend of the Water Nigger 2?

>>6767923
welp, tried downsampling the official logo and choking it to a 15 color palette. It looks okay-ish but still needs fixing and it's probably wise to just do it all over anyway. The main concern is the huge "2" but eh whatever we'll figure something out

>>6767860
These are in every location. It's for an Inn(to recover stamina), to sell Fish(which is why there is a kanji for fish) and the third one is to buy fishing gears(which is why there is a kanji for fishing). I don't know how you would substitute them, though.

>>6768031
that's not how you spell water nigger

>>6767465
体力 means stamina.

>>6768031
Did you just make that up? The game's title is "River Master Fishing 2"

>>6768172

>ROM hacking and reverse engineering
Hey man, each console has the "easiest" roms to get into rom hacking? I was thinking in trying with games like Mario Bros(which has a lot of resource already), but dunno if that is not as easy as I may be thinking. I'm mostly in making my own tools and whatnot instead of using an already made tool for the specific game, because I want to learn how to do it.

>>6768220
Can you speak Japanese or not?

>>6768229
each = which

>>6768202
Really? Do you think you're being smart here? I'll throw your question right back at you. What was THAT supposed to accomplish? Do you think I didn't read the page I linked and wouldn't notice? What are you? 5?

>>6768236
川 = river
の = possessive particle
ぬし= master
釣り=fishing
2 = 2

I can't make it any clearer than that. I'm sorry google translate failed you.

>>6768227
holy based. EOPs destroyed
>>6768236
as we all know Wikipedia is the best resource for Japanese to English translation
I hope you add some memes to your localization hehe

>>6768230
No, I can't, but it's obvious what you're trying to bait us into and it's just all too tiresome. You're not witty and you're not clever.

>>6768245
The series has an official title translation. There is nothing to decide here.

>>6768269
It's wrong. Were you not aware of that or are you translating the game wrong on purpose?

@everyone please ignore weebs like >>6768270 who are just trying to distract us from progressing on our fan loc. let us continue

>>6768270
It's the official translation and for the sake of everyone's sanity it's what we're going with. You know this but for whatever reason you still have to argue over this.
Why are you so vigorously against the idea of people translating a decades old fishing rpg for fun?

>>6768245
>ぬし= master
Well, not in this exactly case, the Japanese guy, or so he says, is probably right:
>>6767610
>The meaning of "ぬしNushi" is not "king".In Japanese, [Nushi] means a special creature living in the rivers and mountains that is different in size and color.It is the creature that stands at the top of the place, which is rarely seen and we don't even know if it really exists.

He is not even translating the game, just the title based on what is the official title translation.

>>6768280
I gotta sleep now but I'll try to get the script dump v2 done tomorrow

>>6768290
No problem, man. Good luck!

>>6768286
Yeah I would have translated it as River God. I get the underlying feeling that the master of the river would probably be a kami, right? Going with the official title is the right choice though in the end.

>>6768227
I'm already in the process of learning Japanese and maintain the opinion that is not free at all. It's a hobby in itself and should be treated as such, so it'll demand the free time you use for games or other activities if you want to make any progress.

>>6768303
>Yeah I would have translated it as River God
That would still be wrong. The reason is because each of the four character goes out to fish a river nushi, for each of them the fish is a different one(one of the is even a catfish namazu: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namazu).). Though only one is called "nushi no something" when you catch it, all of the characters has their own specific fish is described as "kawa no nushi" during the intro.

In Japan, the person who made the thread is called thread-nushi, or sure-nushi スレ主for short.
The person who uploaded a file is called "Up-nushi" or "upu-nushi".うp主

In this case, "nushi" means "owner" or "important person".

ウキウキ釣り天国3
uki uki tsuri tengoku3
"Uki Uki Fishing Heaven 3"
Genre: Fishing Simulation Game

Supported Models: Windows 95/98/Me
Sold by Teichiku
Developed by Teichiku and Argus Planning (cooperation)
Release date: October 25, 1996

It sounds like it's rated as the best fishing game ever made.

I'm really just waiting for a text dump that doesn't have broken kanji like the google doc sometimes has.

>>6769852
but this one's also on the ps1, except it's just called uki uki fishing heaven - the mystery of the mermaid legend in english

>>6770140
Almost done with it

>>6757652
how is this series? games worth checking out?

>>6770140
>sometimes
It is all the times. The ones that are not broken is the ones I fixed.

>>6770328
I think the original author of the doc used an incorrect character table anyway. There are discrepancies with my dump and theirs, but we'll find out soon enough.

>>6768031
Like I said I can help with graphical stuff if needed. Want me to give it a try too?

>>6767851
CAN WE MAKE A 4KIDZ VERSION AFTER YOU GUYS ARE DONE PROPERLY TRANSLATING IT?

Guys, aspiring translators, just a quick reminder that context is pretty important.

For example,
> $2CAE8 イワナは元気良く泳いでいった。
is currently (in the spreadsheet) translated as:
> FSH is cheerfully swimming.
and that is a translation I might in fact make too, if I had no further context.

But! In-game, that message is displayed when you have the fish hauled up from the water but it breaks out of the hook. So it's actually completely wrong. Something approaching a correct translation would be:
> FSH broke off and swam away!

With that in mind, please, have some playthroughs of the game so you can translate in context:

> https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLk0HpeY5J6mGBREx5yM8y59q_QRIEnBG6&disable_polymer=1

>>6770435
Not someone that knows japanese, so I was wondernig why does the sentence changes so much based on context? It's like a completely different sentence there.

>spreadsheet
Someone is making a new one, because that is full of broken kanji. The guy that was translating it had to play the game to check every single kanji because of it.

>>6770363
Please do! 15 colors + transparent, you know the drill.

I think I'm done with the dump for the most part. Just making sure if this is right:

my output:
優良釣師認定証
釣師としての マナ―を守り
我々を 見事だまし釣り上げる
貴方の技術を評価し 優良釣師
と認定します。 魚類組合

the one in the doc:
評良釣獲価定題
釣獲としてのマナーを歳り
島を見事だまし釣り上げる
新方の要牧を役し評良釣獲
と価定します。 魚類我六

>>6770435
>from the water but it breaks out of the hook.
Wouldn't
>イワナは元気良く泳いでいった
be describing the actual state of the fish after he fell in the water?

>>6770459
It literally translates to "FSH cheerfully went off swimming"

There's actually a small error in the translation. Whoever translated it must have read 泳いでいった "went off swimming" as 泳いでいた "was swimming". That accounts for half of the change in the sentence desu.


I'm willing to translate a bit of the game if I have the energy but I have no fishing terminology under my belt so I might accidentally include a fishing lod.

>>6770468
I was able to find the image using your output, as you can see, it agrees with every kanji on it. Way better than the original script dumb.

>>6770468
It looks rihgt but マナ― should be マナー (the dash is different)

>>6770486
noted! I suppose the script is now complete. I'll set up a new google sheet or something

>>6770481
Okay, that means the author of the original doc probably misaligned the character table by 5 bytes which means that any glyph past a certain point is _guaranteed_ to be wrong.

docs dot google dot com slash:
spreadsheets/d/1JXeZBULnDV87uVMx9ILinR7uwBKawxSOZnhWmttc7Yk/edit?usp=sharing

new sheet here. the "Dump" page is the dump and the "Additional Info" page is additional information about the joker chars

Absolute lol at EOPs. How do you live with yourselves?

No one in this thread who provided a translation actually knows Japanese, it's actually insane, every time someone translates a line there's an obvious error. Goes to show people who bother fan translating do so to validate their (relatively lackluster) knowledge or to learn themselves. Looking forward to the release so I can laugh at all the fuckups.

>>6770640
>>6770718
Here's your (you)

>>6770718
>Looking forward to the release so I can laugh at all the fuckups.
As if you would play the translated game. You already know Japanse, or so you say. So why would it even matter to you if the translation is good or not? Sounds like you are the one wanting to validate your knowledge.

>>6770738
Learn Japanese.

>>6770738
Every time I see shitty translations and people in denial about them I'm glad I learned Japanese.

>>6770753
I checked the thread to say learn Japanese.
If I needed validation I would correct the bad translations, but the hubris in this thread makes me want not to.

>>6770754

>>6770791
>>6770754
Last one. I'm all outta (you)s.

>>6770791
>If I needed validation I would correct the bad translations
Instead you prefer to play the supposed bad translation version to laugh at all the fuckups? Sounds like needing some validation.

>>6770827
Of course I won't play it translated, I'll just remember the lines I saw this thread. Hopefully someone else goes through it to compare original and translation though, that's always fun

>>6770847
>Hopefully someone else goes through it to compare original and translation though
Seems like there is always someone looking to validate their knowledge, one way or another. Be it by translating it, comparing it or checking someone else translation in some thread.

>>6770865
sure, most people on 4chins suck at Japanese so that's not surprising

>>6770874
And it also seems there is always someone who thinks he is better than the rest.

>>6770901
yes and turns out sometimes it's justified my little anon, not everyone is created equal, you don't want to bet against me on an IQ test ;-)

Just ignore the weeb/weebs.

>>6770481
It's a neat output in Japanese.Now I know what makes this game so difficult to translate.Punctuation marks are used to write Japanese, but this game uses spaces.Whitespace is also used in areas where you don't normally use punctuation.Japanese is a different kind of writing depending on where you use the punctuation marks.When translating, if you translate a string of characters without punctuation, it will not be translated correctly.
I'm translating Japanese with deepl and posting in this thread, but I'm very careful about the position of the punctuation marks.

>>6770951
Looks great!

>>6771050
LMAO like I thought it's another "non Japanese speaker spreads BS and uses machine translation" enterprise. Amazing,

>>6770626
From $DAFF to $E997 they are all characters' name. It's a good idea to know what to translate them, since some have more than one way of reading it. Also, these are the four main character's name:
太郎, 京子, 雄三 and 紀子.
I guess, Tarou, Kyouko, Yuuzou and Kimiko(or Kiko, same name as the crown princess of Japan) would work.

>>6771136
>non Japanese speaker spreads BS
It's the opposite, though. If he is speaking the true, he is translating from Japanese to English and posting here, like here:
>>6767959

>>6771157
Can you read?
>I'm translating Japanese with deepl
it's machine translation.
in before "b-b-but machine translation is good enough"

>>6771050
>Punctuation marks are used to write Japanese, but this game uses spaces
Yes. This games uses two ways of "ending a sentence". White space and new lines.

>>6771172
Yes, anon. He is translating from Japanese to post here, not to translate the game.
Can you read?
>'m translating Japanese with deepl and posting in this thread
>posting in this thread

>>6771186
oh I see what you're saying, yeah wrong way around, my bad

>>6771186
>Yes. This games uses two ways of "ending a sentence". White space and new lines.
This should be noted, good call. In the end however, once we get some context clues and see the translated string, even if it's shitty, it shouldn't be too hard to reword it to fit better.

>>6771421
Yes. The google sheet has a "translation" and "better translation", so if anything is missing a context, we can fix it. It's always better to assume the "translation" column is almost literal(or in some cases quite literal), so one can fix it later by taking in consideration the context. Mostly because I assume many of those are specific to some point in the game that you are not going to get it if you don't see it. Good thing this guy posted some playthroughs: >>6770435

You'll never be Japanese. Learn any language you want, nothing will fill the void inside of you. Your figurines are the closest you'll get to having any sort of company. It'll all your own fault though.

Any more sprites that need editing?

I'll get some soon, but notably the Inn/shop plaques and some other small stuff

No prob

>>6770468
>優良釣師認定証
How do I get that?

>>6771953
First location, when you get the biggest char(イワナ), you will receive it.

>>6770626
Mr Dumper, that is a very good start but there's still a lot of text in the game undumped.

There is a description of each fish available (ones you have seen) when you select 道具 -> 釣りノート -> [location]

No hurry though.

>>6772198
Good to know! I'll get on this next, shouldn't be too hard to find the data now that we've got a full table.

Btw, how are you guys going to translate ぬし釣り?
Nushi fishing, river king fishing?
This also appears in some sentence, not only on the title.

So many subhumans ITT.

Especially funny how one starts with overly formal Japanese, so the second one goes with some shit he saw on 5ch. Could have been the reverse too.

>>6772289
I suppose we should take as much cues as we can from the Gameboy game's localisation and use whatever they used.

>>6770468
>優良釣師認定証

Excellent Fisherman Certificate

You have the courtesy of a fisherman.
You'll catch us with aplomb.
We appreciate your skills, good fisherman
I certify that the
Fishermen's Association

The Fishermen's Union translation is incorrect.

The statement shows that
It's probably an association run by the fishes, and it's content to honor the players.
It's not a fishermen's association, it's an association made by fish.

It's an association of fishes.

>>6772289
It depends on how people want to take things forward. For example the Goemon games were always "Mystical Ninja Goemon" or something of the sort. The recent patches all went with "Go for it Goemon" which is more of a literal translation. So while this could keep as "The Legend of The River King" might as well go for something else like "Fishing the River King 2".

>>6772293
>one starts with overly formal Japanese
dude this may be 4channel but we can't disrespect REAL NIHONJIN-SAMA
>second one goes with some shit he saw on 5ch
now that is unacceptable, this is a respectable image board, not one of those barbarian nip text boards.

>>6772372
>>6772348
I'm asking more for the use of ぬし in the scripts. For example, the GB game translated ぬし to "Guardian" whenever someone talks about the "fish called ぬし".

>You'll catch us with aplomb.
from this
>我々を見事だまして釣り上げる。

>>6772369
I think there is a more commonly used meaning for 釣師 than fisherman.

>>6772465

I think we need to start working in private guys, the weeb/weebs is/are too distracting.
Let us move to Discord, I just made a server here https://discord.gg/9svqdh
I'm continuing to hack, I've found at least 17 addresses now. $0001, $0002, etc. up to $0017.

>>6772504
I don't even know if it's using that for fisherman, because 釣師 also means angler, which is a way of fishing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angling

dude vervalkon#5908 why u leavin

>>6772653
Is not he the guy that dumped the script?

I do believe I am owed a 優良釣師認定証

>>6772402
An addendum about nushi.
For example, suppose we, Japanese, see an outstandingly large boar deep in the mountains.The person who sees it is a nushi guarding this mountain!We think thatThe same is true when we place it on other animals.

There is a saying in Japan that there are eight million gods, and animals have gods too.

Guardian is perhaps the closest expression to nushi.

Even a domesticated cat becomes a nekomata after about 20 years.
Even tools can become nekomata after a hundred years of use.
Although there are few people who believe in it anymore ^ ^

>>6772683
>Even tools can become nekomata after a hundred years of use.
uh oh...

you did well mr. we, Japanese, but I have unmasked your true identity. you were LARPMAN McWeeb all along!!! >:)

>>6772465
我々を見事だまして釣り上げる

You've got us hooked.

You're good at deceiving me, and you're good at fishing.

From the fish side, the bait has tricked me and caught me, you're good at it!That means.

>>6772698
Translation error.
Cats 20 years, tools 100 years^^^

>>6772741
nihongo jouzu desu ne
>>6772787
付喪神≠nekomata
それもdeeplのせいなの?

What is even the point of larping as a japanese person? It's not like anyone here cares about it or even cares about weebs.

>>6772845
It's just that the sentence I typed in wasn't the right one, and it was converted in a funny, concatenated way.I'm not fluent in English, so I can't say for sure that deepl's translation results are correct, but I'm curious about the game's translation and keep writing.

英語がヘタクソですまんのう。でも、喋れんので、deeplつかうしかないのよ。googleよりはマトモに翻訳してくれてる気がするし^ ^

>>6772910
>mistranslating games to discourage anyone from doing a better job to own the weebs
now that I can get behind

>>6773156
If the weabs don't know Japanese, what is the point of being a weab?

>>6773176
why do you use words you don't understand?
weeaboo == some faggot obsessed with japanese shit despite not knowing anything about it and embarrassing themselves as they spout uninformed crap. just like OP and the LARPers in this thread who claim they can translate from Japanese while making mistakes in the most basic of sentences

>>6773191
OP has not said he knows Japanese, just that he wanted to play this game translated.

>>6773220
and where in that definition is it implied that someone needs to claim to know japanese to be a weeaboo?
i swear you retards spouting weeb weeb at everything japanese you see are either dense on purpose or actually retarded
someone speaking shitty broken japanese trying to impress is one
someone speaking proper japanese after years of diligent study is not

>>6773253
and to clarify further, someone not speaking japanese but being a faggot begging for translations and longing for every bit of japanese culture being spoonfed to them = weebMAX

>>6773253
>>6773265
So weeaboo means "anyone but me, one that has spend years of diligent study to learn Japanese". Got it.

>>6773281
? i am japanese

>>6773069
WOW!ホンマによく効くわ

>>6773293
>>6772712

>>6773327
you win this time yankeeman, but i will return yet again as another fictional japanese, better keep your eyes peeled...

who needs translators anymore when we got this

aight dudes got the title tled thank me later

>>6772198
Found the data now – there's 73 entries in a long list at 0x28018, 23 bytes per entry.
In these 23 bytes there's stuff like pointer to fish name data, pointer to description data, which image to use, probably the stats too, shown on the left to the image in your pic.

I don't think there's 73 unique fish in the game though so maybe there's other stuff here too, but can't say for sure yet. I'll start extracting these as soon as I figure out the bytes

>>6773624
>73 unique
You received a letter from the author of the game if you catch 65 different fishes. So I guess 65 of them is unique.

>>6773837
third sheet has now been added. all the "Fish" Table Data should be there.

>>6771953
This is right:
>>6772121
However, to get the biggest one you need to release every young fish that you caught. By doing that, you are allowing it to grow even more and the number of fishes in the location will also increase. Whenever you read that you fishing a young fish, do release it.

>>6772198
>>6774134

>>6774134
Nice! translating them now using deepl.

>>6775365
>using deepl
Is this a joke?

>>6775382
Don't worry, the translation quality is pretty good! I made some mistakes earlier so it should be better with it.

>>6775405
Might as well just play the game using retroarch translation thing.

Just play the GBC version
