Re: [RJ133508] Knight of Flame Lily Akos [WIP]
Initially it was going to be a binary patch like what Yugifan does (I do appreciate what he does, though). I changed over when I decided to do a full trans and nearly lost my mind with the sheer amount of repeated text in this game.
I should have said it's an RMTrans patch.
Go
You must be registered to see the links
and download the one that doesn't have _cli_ in its name (it has a GUI, easier to work with). Unpack and put in whatever folder you like - I generally use a folder calld RPGMTrans.
Don't unpack the archive (keep it as a .zip) unless you need to (see below).
Copy/move the game folder and patch to the same directory.
Run RPGMaker Trans.
Under "Game Location", hit browse and select the Game.exe file in the folder (it's handy if the RGSS3a file is still there as well).
Under "Patch location" (if it doesn't find it automatically, but it should) find the patch archive and select it.
Important - For whatever reason, if the patch archive is not showing up under Patch Location, unpack it to a separate folder and direct RPGMakerTrans to the RPGMKTRANSPATCH file. This sometimes works, sometimes not.
If all goes according to plan, it should automatically create a _translated folder. Now all you need to do is hit "Go".
If it doesn't create the _translated folder by itself: close, reboot and try again. It works 97.5% of the time.
I know these instructions may make it look complicated, but really, it's simple.
One last thing: what's actually currently translated is in my opening post. I'm still working on this, so there will still be Japanese text in the game itself, but there will also be a fair bit of English text as well. The UI (Items, Armours, Weapons, Skills, States, Enemies, Troops, Actors) are all finished should all be in English. Actors in particular is pretty useless for this game as all the characters names are present in the dialogue, so they will revert to Japanese at some point. If you come across any non-dialogue stuff that's still Japanese, do tell me. Feedback is always appreciated - it helps me do this better.
