Mystery Dungeon: Shiren Gaiden Asuka Kenzan - English Translation

[offalynne]

Curious if..

1. Any GD-ROM -> CDI wizards are able to get the original, the demo release (and eventually the final release presumably) down to CDR size ? The patched GDI demo release is 401 MB 7z'd and 1.133 GB unpacked.

2. Anyone has tested (the original and the demo) performance of this with DreamShell and Serial Port SD Card Adapter ?

Eager to play on HW but I'm relatively unfamiliar with the DC scene and ODEs are too spendy/labour intensive for me, at the moment :-}

Just want to give this topic a bump to say that I'm back from my break after releasing the demo, and am working on the remaining dialogue now. (I've actually been at it for the past 3 weeks, and just reached 25.1% completion for DATASCR.BIN - the main story file)

It's still going to take a very long time to finish the translation, but mostly wanted to reassure people that I'll see it through to completion since I've been a little quiet about it.

That said, I still don't know how to deal with this game's compressed textures (title screen, area transition screens), so any help in that area would be very much appreciated.

The game's decompression function entry is at 8C051816, r4 is the compressed data address,

The actual decompression function is in 8C013768, r5 is the compression address, and r4 is the decompression address.

good luck~


ps:I once made a complete cdi image of this game, without deleting anything, just compressing the game data, 700mb

Thanks for the tips, yzb! I personally specialize more on the translation side of things and am not much of a hacker, so I'm not sure I can figure out compression/decompression tools based on the information you shared.

Would you be interested in working together on this project by sharing your compression tools? I'd be glad to share my python scripts for text extraction/insertion + any notes I have as thanks, which might be helpful if you wanted to create a Chinese translation for the game.

After you finish all the text translation, if you still have not solved the problem by then, you can text me in the forum, I will help you

Thank you so much, yzb! I'll work hard to finish the full translation!

Thank you very much @yzb

i went ahead and re-uploaded this .cdi to MEGA if that's ok (the japanese version, not the english demo).
