Translation project for Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition

***Kyohack*** · 03-16-2012 10:11 PM

PokéStation is doing an English, German, and Italian translation project for Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition (aka Pokémon Conquest). The tools we used, have been attached below. We don't support piracy, so don't ask for ROM links.

We will continue this project as an alternate translation, even though the game has been released. Support Nintendo and get the official English game, here.

Want to help?
If you know Japanese, German, or Italian, then you can help us by translating a block of text. Once you've translated the file, then email it back to me. My email is dsdever255(at)gmail.com

Use Notepad++ to edit .XML files: http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.1.2.html
Before editing a file in Notepad++, click Encoding -> Character Sets -> Japanese -> Shift-JIS

Use MadEdit to edit .DAT files: http://sourceforge.net/projects/made...atest/download
Before editing a file in MadEdit, click View -> Encoding -> [SHIFT-JIS]
Then click View -> Hex Mode

Here are the blocks of text, and their English translation status:

Troubleshooting:

Below, I have attached a ROM patch that reflects our progress so far. I have also included the xDelta ROM patching utility. Make sure you use a clean un-edited ROM when applying the patch. The translation patch includes the anti-piracy patch. To patch the ROM, download and then unzip the file below. Then open the xdeltaUI mod program, and select the patch file. Then choose your clean ROM for the source file. After that, type a name like pokemon.nds for the output file. Press apply and wait for it to say "Patch successful". Make sure that your ROM has the same name as your save file. If your flash cart has trouble, then make sure you have the latest firmware, and then copy all files from your SD card to your computer, then format your SD card, then copy your files back to your SD card.

Flashcart trouble?

Make sure to replace your old flashcart firmware files with the updated ones here: http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=27983

Works on:

Acekard 2i
Supercard DS two
Desmume
IdeaS Emulator 1.0.4.0 Multicores
R4 (using custom YSmenu)
R4i Gold (using custom YSmenu)
EZ Flash Vi
No$GBA
R4 (with latest wood firmware)
R4i Gold (with latest wood firmware)

We are doing this because we believe that Pokemon X Nobunaga's Ambition may never see an official English release.

I have done a plugin for Tinke to support G2D and PAC files, so every file inside "graphic" folder is supported.

G2D (LINK) format:

Code:

Offset | Size | Description
0x00   |   4   | "LINK"
0x04   |   4   | Number of files
0x08   |   4   | Block size
0x0C   |   4   | Padding, always 0x00

* Start of offset table, for each file:
4 bytes -> Absolute offset
4 bytes -> Size, must be multiplied by "block size". If size is 0, then the size is "block size"

The unpacked files are common nitro images (nclr, ncgr, ncer, nanr and nscr). They are in this order:
* File0 -> NANR (animation)
* File1 -> NCGR (image data) "Tile form -> Lineal"
* File2 -> NCER (oams)
* File3 -> NCGR (image data) "Tile form -> Horizontal"
* File4 -> NCLR (palette)
* File5 -> NSCR (map)

PAC format:

Code:

Offset | Size | Description
0x00   |  4    | Constant value 0x0040E3C4
0x04   |  4    | Unknown, with Map files is set to 0 and with objets to 1
0x08   |  4    | Number of files

* Offset table. It contains information for 8 files but only it's used for the specificated in "Number of files", it means if "Number of files" is 3, the offset of the 4º files will be 0x00000000 and the "file type" 0xFFFFFFFF. For each file:
4 bytes -> Offset
The size can be calculated using the next offset (in the last file we must use the total file lenght) or reading the size in the format.
After offset table, there are the "file type", for each file:
4 bytes -> File type as follow
      - 0 => BMD0
      - 1 => BTX0
      - 2 => BTP0
      - 7 => BTA0

I heard it's gonna be released next month. It was mentioned on GameFAQs.

On Serebii now they have a list and description of all the pokemons abilities and moves. Great for people who want a easy way to find out what each pokemon does. Also they have the requirements they need to evolve.

greatly looking forward to this, but a quick question. Is there any form of a name canonical to this branch off series for the hero or heroine? I specify canonical to this branch off, because everyone knows if this was canon to the proper series it'd **** the proper canon so terribly, just because of mewtwo. Anyway, tried the game today, love it so much, I just wish I could understand what's going on in it.

Edit:
If you want to roll with the kanji translated into english letters the heroine's name would be 'Shijunko' which is a way of saying 'Hero' in japanese. Pretty sure you can find a more 'masculine' version of saying 'Hero' in japase for the male protagonist's name.

I'm currently doing a playthrough on this game right now, and i'm explaining the storyline as I progress. You can view the thread here: http://pokecheats.net/forum/showthre...overage-Thread
