Hi, I'm translating GoldenEye for my language and with the advice of Sogum, I decided to create a topic so that you can help me (Not required of course)

The text translation is going well, but the editing font is a big headache, I edited the letters of FONT1:

á = [
ã = %
õ = &
ú = /
é = ]
ç = |
ê = +
í = $

In-game looks like this:




As you can see: The letters % and + were distorted and | for some reason became a X...

Have any of you have an answer for me?

Thank you!

Note: Just do not show pictures of the translation because I was translating placing accents and if I put everything in game crashes x.x

Welcome MJarcos! Glad you decided to start a topic here.

Unfortunately there's no way to fix the distorsion. You will have to replace your font with other characters that don't distort.
Or you can go the hard way and try to make your font already distorted and hope the editor displays it right after re-distorting it.

How many fonts do you need to edit?
As I yold you earlier I edited [ ] $ & / | { } in the big size fonts. I also had to edit % instead of } in the small text fonts. It needed some counter-distorsion but it ended up fine.

I've absolutely no clue why that happened to your | replacemet. That character should be easy to edit.


Good luck with your translation.

[MJarcos]

Bueno, las cartas que siempre utilizan son: ã, á, à, â, é, ê, ú, í ,ó, õ, ô e ç.... Mi idioma es malvaod x.x

Así que sólo estoy usando la más importante en la traducción. Pero una pregunta para usted: Cuando se dibuja, se parece a esto:



Pero de alguna manera puede que así sea y logró entrar en el juego sin dar este mensaje: No Altura iguales...



¿Cómo hiciste eso?


Gracias

Obs: Lgun tiene alguna limitación?
La fuente usada aquí es | ^.^

Un video corto de cómo va =D

Sí que son muchos carácteres los que debes de sustituir, has nombrado 12 y yo me vi muy justo para editar 8. Quizás alguien que haya hecho la traducción para otro idioma podría recomendarte más fuentes para sustituir.
Podrías intentar evitar usar alguna de esas letras usando sinónimos, pero tratándose de vocales lo veo muy complicado. Me temo que vas a tener que editar alguna de las fuentes que giran lo que se guarda sobre ellas.

Respecto a lo del símbolo | sustituído por ñ , acabo de volverlo a probar y tienes razón en que el tamaño de las imágenes no es el mismo. No lo había recordado bien y he vuelto a hacer la prueba -> lo que tienes que mantener es el número de píxeles verticales de la imagen, parece que el número de píxeles en horizontal da lo mismo. Al menos con este ejemplo yo lo he conseguido.

¿Lgun tiene alguna limitación? Añadiendo los .bin con el 21990 Modifications menu no tuve problemas de limitación. Existe otro método para sustituir los textos mediante el Text Editor que sí tiene límites para el tamaño del texto.

La traducción se ve bien, No tengo ni idea de portugués pero parece casi terminada.

In English.

You have a lot of special characters to add,you named 12 and I had a lot of trouble to add just 8. Perhaps someone else who did a translation could recomend other fonts to edit.
You could try to skip some special characters using synonims but beeing most of them vowels it feels imposible to do. I'm afraid you'll have to edit some of the fonts that distort the images.

About the | simbol been replaced with ñ , I did it again and your are right that the images size aren't the same. I didn't remember it well but it worked for me -> you have to keep the vertical size in pixels but it seems you can change the horizontal size as you want. At least replacing this fonts there was no problem at all.

Has Lgun some kind of limitations? I had no problems injecting the text with the 21990 modifications menu but there's another method with the Text Editor that has a limit for the text size.

Your translation look great I have no idea of Portuguese but it seems almost done.

Check you PM.

[MJarcos]

Tenías razón! Tuve la oportunidad de avanzar en el estado de las fuentes!



Pero...



No me gusta este tipo de fuente...

Se adjunta el archivo de fuente y LTitle para aquellos que quieren echar un vistazo...

Gracias...

[MJarcos]

Sorry for double posting, but come on!

This is for the most hacker! If you take the GEDecompressor, you would know the font files of GE and PD? I remember once I managed to get new accents changing the file table.

Thank you!

[SubDrag]

Did you try a 32-bit version of bmp for import? Which chars specifically don't work, please give me a list and I will investigate. And which ones work.

[MJarcos]

Sorry for my delay, but here it is:
ã, á, õ, é, ê, ç, í, ó and ú

Thanks

[SubDrag]

I mean which GoldenEye characters (not your replacements)

[MJarcos]

Oh... sorry!

Here:


&, %, $, #, }, |, {, ] and [

[SubDrag]

And which ones worked?

[MJarcos]

Those who worked:

&, %, $ and #

But others 'repeat' letters, turned õ for ê for example.

If anyone is interested, here are the files in small font:

Thanks

[SubDrag]

Sorry hacving trouble debuggin this. Please post:
1) All your replacement images
2) Which ones go to where that work
3) Which ones go o where that do not work

[MJarcos]

Okay, now let's see if I hit:

First I took the file and change a few letters LttileE to test the accents:



Then I went to the tool in order to enter the 21,990 new lyrics:



I put the text file (already in BIN format.) And converted to ROM.

As you can see the translation works without are problems:



But when we see the accents, we noticed that some letters are repeated in the other place, for example: õ. And for some reason: | turns X.



Is that it?

[SubDrag]

Yes but I also need you to post your replacement bitmaps, working and nonworking, and which goes to what letter.
