Hey guys, I recently decided to start working on an english translation for Cosmic Fantasy 4 - Chapter 1. This is quite the project so progress has been slow, but I have Rich (aka tomaitheous) helping me with research and possibly asm mods.

I'll post screenshots here as we make new progress.

1st screenshot

There are no text compression routines (yet), or even pointer modifications... otherwise this would have an "!" after "Welcome"

If anyone has any useful information for this game, or would like to help with hacking or translating, please contact me: animefx@gmail.com

This is great news. We all encourage translation projects of pretty much any kind! We also encourage that the translation project doesn't get abandoned because that leaves so many upset people (especially me) who don't speak a second language with a game they will never play Smile

Translations take time Wink

Stepping through someone else's code and trying to make sense of it - stuff like that. Smile

I haven't abandoned it, work on it has been slow at best because I've been busy with other things. I'll post a few new screen shots over the weekend. I've had to program my own tools, but they are still too primitive and buggy at this point that I've been manually inserting everything.
