Please, someone could give that light, I really wanted to play this game in Portuguese. I'm a big fan and if someone could put me in the way, I'd translate it myself. I just need some help to understand all this complicated compression in the text.

Help a fan of this game to be happy T.T

Sure! You should contact gledson.999

They contacted me a while ago as they were working on translating the game and needed some of my help. Here is a starting video they had done: https://youtu.be/sk9l9gs6Xa8

Although I don't remember there being ANY compression in dialogue text. Just some codes for changing color, pausing, line-breaks etc. Here are some of my raw notes:

Code: Select all

c1 XX = character's name. 
  00 = Vahn, 01 = Noa, 02 = Gala, 03 = Terra (the wolf's name)
c2 XX = item's name by id
c3 XX = magic's name by id
c4 XX = item's name by id (same as c2)
c5 XX = art's name by id
  00 = Vahn's Craze, etc.
c6 XX = unused?
c7 XX = Ra-Seru's name
  00 = Meta, 01 = Terra, 02 = Ozma

cf XX = color text
  00 = gray
  01 = blue
  02 = red
  03 = purple
  04 = green (terra's green)
  05 = teal (ozma's blue)
  06 = yellow
  07 = white
  08 = shadowed white
  09 = dark red (meta's color)
  etc

ce XX = show icons in text like buttons, symbols, currency and stats
  00 = X button, 01 = circle, 02 = square, 03 = triangle, 04 = R1, 05 = R2, 06 = L1, 07 = L2, 08 = G, 09 = I, 0a = A, 
  0b = values at? etc 0f = japanese hiragana of "ra-seru"
  10 = weapon symbol, 11 = helm, 12 = armor, 13 = boot, 14+ = ra-seru magic icons

So in dialogue seeing 1f cf 09 c7 00 cf 07 3A means...
1f = newline
cf 09 = start coloring text red
c7 00 = output meta's name
cf 07 = start coloring text white
3a = ':' character
=> "Meta: ...."
At any point between the cf XX and other flags, a 0xBF or 0xFF can show up (maybe some others) which makes it hard to extract dialogue.

Você fazia parte da equipe de Gledson.999? Eu vi já tinha visto esse vídeo e fui parar na página do Facebook onde tinha esse projeto, vi que a equipe tinha três pessoas e que foi parado porque encontrou muito bugs..

Sabe me dizer quais a dificuldades foram encostrada na tradução para o cancelamento do projeto?

Muito obrigado pela ajuda, de coração!

Desculpe, só conheço uma questão menor. Não conseguimos encontrar uma imagem com texto em inglês.

Então eu não tenho certeza por que eles pararam, mas isso é triste :(

Sorry for Google Translate :O

You see, he told me that he does not remember any compression in the game, but look at this dialogue that is in Spanish and try to find it with a Hex editor.

Can not find it at all .. These conditions that passed me I saved and for sure will be very late, but my main focus is to be able to understand this compression. Would you have something to talk about? Since you worked with them, would you still have the tools that Gledson.999 and the team developed for the translation?

Sorry to have spoken in Portuguese, I'm also using a translator, I forgot to translate hahahaha

I don't think there is any compression. Outside of the notes I posted above for inserting character/spell names into the chat and coloring it.

I have an app that pulls all the Dialogue out, I can find the location for you although it will probably be different in the ROM you have.

I believe NPC dialogue lines start with bytes 0x24, 0x1f.

Ehhhhh you're right. There is apparently compression in the early bit of the game up to Drake Kingdom!! ><
