i dont translate games and im not a weeb

Currently translating Naruto: Konoha Senki. If I post about romhacking stuff it's probably from working on that.
Pinned
This is really starting to come together. I think it's at least going to be another few months because there's some graphics to do, but I feel like as far as text goes I can get most of it done soon.
its here

possibly unpopular opinion or maybe I'm just old, but the rehabilitation of clippy's image is nuts to me

has anybody else noticed that big software companies have decided that they dont like to tell the user what's going on anymore? I just installed a square POS and the pinpad says "update needed" and then you tap the alert and it takes you to the wrong screen.

OK, being able to write my own commands for the debugger is life changing

I ended up making a tutorial video because I had a rough time setting up GDB for mGBA debugging on windows. Default GDB does not come with support for ARM processors and I had a rough time figuring that out, so this is for my future self too.

Man...I wanted to automate some stuff with debugging so I tried switching ton GDB + mGBA and it ended up taking me the whole day to set it up. I did get the scripting stuff I wanted working, but that was brutal...

Why do the most profitable companies in history have interfaces that make you want to throw your computer into the sun? O365 admin, Cloudflare, Cisco...I'm talking specifically about you guys.

I totally forgot that the wii controller was called "Nunchucks" until the runner in this kept referring to them as ヌンチャクlol

Man, assembly is really fun actually. I can't believe I was so afraid of it.

lol...somehow editing the character names was harder than inserting dialog. its ok tho.. we ball on.
October 22, 2025 at 1:42 AM
Gonna start translating if I'm not hungover tomorrow lol. I got the nameplates and items and stuff extracted, so I can actually start now.

This romhacking stuff is a really similar feeling to when I hit a certain phase in learning Japanese. The one where I had infinite momentum, and every day was fun and challenging. I haven't felt like this in years and tbh I didn't think I would ever find something like this again. OP hobby.

ImHex has a web version? That's crazy chat.
October 9, 2025 at 8:11 PM
btw, I'm not sure if this is great romhacking advice or not but I'm refactoring my tools to use commandline args rather than just be a bunch of scripts, and now it's way easier to test stuff. Next time I will definitely do that from the start.

Wrote a font injection routine. I got a lot of good advice, so I'm gonna try making the eng font better.

i wish i cld just quit my job and make money on this fan translation stuff but also i bet everyone else thinks that too

Wrote a system for text reinsertion. Finally starting to translate the game for real.

Question...this is the default font for english characters in the game. Is it ugly? I have the font extracted and I could reinsert it if needed, but I've looked at it so much I can't tell if it's bad.

Need to work out a lot of kinks, but I got text insertion working
