black / white Pokémon Black and White Translation Project v2

[soneek]

Also guys if possible could you sync your forks up to the main one? there are some typos/bugs that randomly come back because not everyone has the same files and I miss of them at times. thanks!

For some reason it keeps failing when I try to sync with the main story git :frown:

For the 4 moves glitch, I think it occurs due to a text limit for that dialog.

So I'm cutting some text down to reduce the line number by 1.

It's not that they're translating the story, all of the Pokedex entries are already translated. They just have to be formatted to be visible. Making the process virtually 1/2 completed. Whereas for what you're asking, which is already a subjective choosing of the places you can't pass, they'd have to find the specific location of that text in a very randomly organized text database. Then it has to be translated, then formatted. All this for a relatively linear game makes that not a priority, just as the script is not a priority. Not that they are required to listen to requests, but at least let the translators finish what they're already working on before asking them to start something completely new.

As for a guide, visit a walkthrough website such as Gamefaqs.com. All of their Walkthrough/FAQS can be downloaded as text files or HTML files for offline viewing. Find the FAQ you like best, then click "View Original File". Then proceed to choosing "Save Page As..." from the File menu. And you have an offline FAQ handy, they're mostly done now, so if you get further and can't follow it anymore, just download the updated version the next time you do have internet access.

The biggest reason the story isn't being translated first is that in a couple of months it will be released in english anyway. They're just translating the stuff that makes the game playable for those who are extremely impatient. These games are not that difficult that you can't figure things out on your own. Hell, I beat the game without the use of any of the patches and just the basic story line from pokebeach if I got a little too stuck. Pokemon games have always been particularly linear.

Also being told to just sift through the masses of text to find those specific lines by somebody with the name lazy isn't too enticing. Have you actually looked at the files that you expect them to translate for you? They're a mess to navigate and finding just a couple of lines in them is too much of a waste. I'm pretty sure people are just looking forward to having the menu's pokemon and attacks in english because that along makes the game beyond playable, unless you're lazy.

For all the wonderful things the internet has brought us over the years, it has destroyed any sense of patience, everyone feels they are entitled to anything if they bitch loud enough.

Well now that the ranting is done, I noticed that the pokedex entries in black still get cut off some times. If I get a chance I'll look through them tonight.

Hey Kaarosu, push this into the GIT quickly, this fixes the 4 moves glitch!

0158.txt - Line 33

If I didn't have the editor, this would have taken so long...

I know that editor is very handy, SCV did an awesome job.

Well said.

Now that the pptxt is out, does anyone seem to have an idea of what's causing the battle subway crashes? Maybe I could take a look into it and try to solve the problem.

These are the only bugs remaining?:

- Toxic Orb Lockup

- Battle Subway Crash

- Little by Little

If anyone would like to send me a save file to try to fix it, it would help.

The Hiker outside the Shift Centre speaks Spanish... Not sure if he's supposed to - his name is quite Japanese. Just thought I'd report it.

Just registered to post 1 bug. using thunderbolt tm causes the game to lock up. It gets to the screen asking if the pokemon should learn it, but the [yes/no] choice never comes up.

Played on my Akaio 1.7 firmware, Battle Subway crashes, haven't tested to see if I have any other bugs. Oh, and I can't get into the union room because I haven't patched with Rudolph yet, so ignore that. The game is Pokemon Black by the way.

Goodluck.

[edawrd_elric]

Hey guys, just a quick request. Any time you find a battle message error, such as the 'Protect' messages people were commenting on a little ways back, let me know. I'm focusing on 0016 to get all the battle messages, and it would help a lot if you guys could point out things too.

Also, if someone could tell me how to sync my fork with the main project, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey i have a question about the rudolph patch for union room V2. Does it work with pokemon white too?? or is it only with black???

I'm guessing this is it:

Yes. That's exactly it.

I can't find the text in neither the Story/Main.

Hello, first time poster here and I'm having a bit of a problem.

I'm unsure which version of the patch I was previously playing, but I found that the game froze during Evolution sequence. I downloaded and applied the patch to a clean slate, renamed and moved onto my Acekard, but now the icon for the game is a simple DS and the game fails to launch, giving me a white screen

Are you sure you used a clean rom? One with absolutely no patching done to it at all? Because what you're describing sounds like what happens to me when I go all blond and try to patch a pre-patched rom.

I'll try again with another file. I might have goofed up and patched the one I labeled clean.

something has gone quite wrong

the patch should fix any errors with evolution and AP, Go to http://kazowar.pbworks.com/ to grab the newest patch and apply it to a clean rom. If this still doesn't work, please reply or pm me with details including the card type, and which game you are using.
