Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? Well that explains a lot! haha I never would have guessed that. If I weren't talking about computers, when you have "the dumps" it would imply not that you are depressed, but that you are having a hard time on the john.

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? For anyone who happens to browse this topic, we got the text dumps. They're posted as spoilers about 2 pages back. People who are helping with the project: GIRakaCHEEZER and andwhyisit If you want, contact me at yakimabrian@charter.net

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? Whatever you say... *doesn't get it* (Dance your cares away Worries for another day)

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? Yes. They were posted about a page back under spoilers. -------- I KNOW I'M CONTRADICTING MYSELF AGAIN, but I'd like it if we make the translation a group effort. The best way to go would be to find a human translator who has a lot of spare time, but those...

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? Depressed? Wha? -------- ASCII? What are you talking about? Or are you even talking to me?

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? Lace, you have a very irritating habit of being overly critical of people. I know that you don't mean any harm, but you keep doing it. No, we haven't really started yet since we just got the dumps about an hour ago.

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? Look a few posts down. We've got the text dump. They're hidden as spoilers. Now we need to translate it and fit it back together.

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? I think I can find a translator. So, do you know how to exchange the Japanese characters with the English ones but have it keep working?

I don't know how changing the file size will effect it. The tricky part of this translation is that there's no context with which to compare it. I wish I could edit it in-game. That would be easier. I suspected that the text file was hidden in the executable file, but I had no way to test the...

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? You mean you opened it with notepad? I thought those characters weren't supported.

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? Grammer is the easiest thing for a human to learn. However it's the hardest think for the computer to learn. Computer translators always have a large archive of vocabulary. What we need help with first is sending a message to the author. It's hard to send a...

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? sigh... Yes, I do. I changed my mind after looking at it again. Whatever it is, it's obviously based off of Cave Story. It doesn't matter whether it's a MOD or not. We may never know. The only one that knows for sure at this point is the author. I'm just...

Re: Translating "Hack 9" to English? MOD: a MODification of a game. Not necessarily a SW MOD or anything of the like. I believe it is a MOD, but just not in the way you guys are thinking of it. It's more professionally done. I just wanted to say that to get things straight. That's just what I...

pfft Now I feel dumb... ^^' I never noticed the scroll bar there. *pokes sig* Well, I haven't used ORG maker much so...

When you have a decimal, it usually implies a beta release. This is separate from the original cave story, which did not have any beta releases, as far as I know.

I understand both sides of that. Only the new areas should have new bgm and tilesets. That's what would make it better, right? Some of those maps can't go, like the Sand Zone, Mimiga Village, and Curly's house. They're too important to change, and they're supposed to be exactly like the...

I've made several map revision suggestions to Kaeso already. If you have any suggestions yourelf, I'm sure he'd be glad to hear them. The most noticable problem I've found is that the Ancient Cave is causing a bit of lag. I expect that the vastness of the map is the problem. Perhapse if the map...

Yes, this is the end of the first demo version. We are currently working on year four. It would have been nice to add a really nice ending, but there's no reason to since it is going to be continued anyways, and it would just be a waste of time in the long run. Although I haven't talked to...

I liked the idea of asterisks for emphasis, but I kind of like slashes better. It gets your eyes to follow the slant of the lines as if it's actually in italics instead of plain text. I don't know if they'll work or not, though. EG That's giving him /way/ too much credit.

Gotcha! Thanks. It would be easier if I got the Japanese to translate in actual characters, like 火 and such instead of pictures.

I believe I can handle the translation part. I'm really hoping to get this to work.

Ask him for what? The language isn't my problem, it's the software!!!

I may not, but translating a foreign language into a known language isn't that hard incomparison to the reverse. I know someone who actually /does/ speak fleuent Japanese. But even if I didn't, automated tranlators can work well for that. Even if you don't get the exact translation, you get the...

I say again, Call it what you will. I don't care. It doesn't matter. It doesn't make any difference what people call it. All that matters is how to mod it. And I already know that it's a stand-alone game.

I didn't say it was a clone. I'm not even going to argue about my English. I'm not going to bother arguing whether it's a MOD or not. I don't think it is. That's what you want, isn't it? If you don't have anything helpful to say, please don't.
