 Posted: Wed Aug 11, 2010 8:05 am Post subject: Tales of Phantasia: NDX Translation Patch |
 |
|
Here we go again. Some of you may have known me for making the Tales of Graces menu patch. I never finished the entire menu due to the game being translated completely by another group, and I was satisfied with how much was done.
So, I decided to move on to this. This is only a menu translation patch. If someone else wants to be pro and translate the whole thing, kudos to them, but I'm just providing a patch that will help people play through the game for what they can. Don't expect it to translate EVERYTHING, but I will translate as much as I can. Please do not yell at me to translate "this" or "that." I am working at my own pace and getting as much done as I can. It is a CONSTANT work in progress, much like the Tales of Graces patch was, and you can expect big changes very fast. I will be releasing as I go.
I happily accept bug reports and suggestions. Feedback makes me happy and drives me forward.

PATCH RELEASE v0.12:
http://www.mediafire.com/?g83m35bh2ju746s
INSTRUCTIONS:
You will need custom firmware to use this patch.
1) Backup your ISO file onto your computer.
2) Open your ISO in UMDGen.
3) Open the PSP_GAME folder, and then the SYSDIR folder.
4) Right click EBOOT.OLD and press "Apply PPF patch to Selected File."
5) Choose top_eboot_v010.ppf, and press Apply. Close UMDGen when it says it has patched the file.
6) Open PPF-o-matic.
7) Under ISO file, click the disk and select your ISO.
8) Under Patch, click the disk and select the top_iso_v010.ppf file.
9) Click "Apply." Your game is now patched!
DISCLAIMER:
1) This game has some requirements to bypass to run on custom firmware. I will provide no support in doing this, only applying the patch.
2) This patch is confirmed to work on a PSP. If the game does not load for you, then something is wrong with your method of loading backups. I personally will provide no support in loading the game, but hopefully others will.
3) I will not help you get custom firmware on your PSP.
4) Nothing in the patch is final. Anything can be changed at any time for any reason.

I hope the patch helps you. :)

Lucky you, since Namco always use the same icons we all know the items perfectly.

Are you going to do a menu patch for Phantasia X too?

More people should post feedback. :| A lot of people have downloaded it but only a few have posted. I need to know if it's at least looking good.

It looks helpful, but I'm afraid I won't be able to test it for a long while--it's a bit of a long story, but I no longer have a Custom firmware PSP.
I do wish you luck though, it looks like it'll be a big help to those that don't know Japanese. :3

I just had a thought, but when I get the game for Christmas, I'll see what I can translate story wise, since I'm learning Japanese. 'w'
...I can't hack for the life of me, but I can try to translate. ^ ^;

I got warned on GameFAQs... I guess no more posting the patch there. :)
I translated the equipment menu and the grade menu. I can't test the grade menu cause I haven't finished the game, but it sure would be nice if someone posted screenshots or at least told me if it looked okay.
I'll post a new one soon.
EDIT: Patch updated.
-Translated the status menu (couple more things).
-Translated the grade menu (this took a while, I need someone to look at it for me and hopefully screenshots since my game isn't done).
-Translated the equipment menu.
-Translated the costume types in the costume menu.
-Translated item categories in the item menu.
-Translated a bunch of random menu buttons (at the bottom of the screen).
-Translated actions on the field (example, press circle to talk, save, world map, etc).
-Fixed an overflow in the cooking menu.
-Random other stuff I don't remember.
Have fun. Please do what you can to raise awareness of the patch's existence. |

If someone can provide the EBOOT.BIN I can work on it, but it's difficult to test a patch for a game I don't have. |
Then how did you get the NDX EBOOT.BIN? NDX and ToP X are on the same disc ....
And nice to see you doing one of these again! Will hold me over until we get an official/fan translation. Well, it would hold me over if I had the game.

EDIT: I'm dumb. For some reason I thought the games were bought separately and didn't realize that "Tales of Phantasia" is in the bottom right corner of the main menu. I had never intended to buy it because I really didn't care enough, but now I can play that too if I feel like it.
In terms of translation... I'm not going to bother. By looking at it, it's pretty much the other PSP or PSX version with the different battle system. I figured it would at least have been upgraded a bit more besides that, but oh well. I'm just going to stick to Narikiri Dungeon X. |
