Chrono Trigger - Translation

[loserone]

Hi, this is my first thread in this forum
So i dunno if i ask in a wrong place

um, i wanna make a Chrono Trigger to my country translation.
with a hope many people in my country will plays it, because its easier to understand language.
and i already working on it, though still many strings for translation.

the problem i counter and i wonder later is,
how to change the text strings?
Please assist me

Try posting at www.triple-tech.org. They can give ROM hacking assistance there. And good luck.

(You have two options, by the way...use Temporal Flux and hack any unique characters/glyphs in, or use Chronotools by bisqwit.)

Right now im using Temporal Flux to translation,

But somethings not right with translation especially for the length of string

I think if the text string is length is longer than its number length, it will causes overbound length, so the display will not right.

And why is the length cant be changed, and honestly i don't know the range of the string example 01F,00D,035

Someone please assist me again,

Well...if no one's responding at triple-tech.org or here, you might try romhacking.net, too.

Out of curiosity, what language are you translating into?

If my translation project is finished,
Developed but no commercial taken,
Will my project get C&D?

I'll developed it much in my country, so CT will get more fame in my country
(I hope so)
And C&D things, bugs me.
If C&D happened, what should i do?
If i dont want get C&D, what i must do?
Please give me assistance one more time...

[ZeaLitY]

I don't think Square will give you a C&D for a translation. It's never happened before, even for Radical Dreamers. The risk is extremely small or non-existent.

can someone here assist me with Chronotools for translation?

Im using the Chrono Texteditor from Manaknight
And still i cant approach what i want in the below i mentioned

1. The text sometimes becomes too long and override the other text
2. When battling, the sprite changed its colour
3. After battling, it has unknown glitches
4. The image Lightning, Fire, Water, Shadow cant be changed with that software
5. Honestly i already translate all string, yet some text are unchanged...i wonder
    if thats because unread by the software
6. Changing Font isnt possible with that software
7. I want to make a good introduction screen like you did (Showing my name
    in front of the game, lols)

i think Chronotools may be a good assistance to solve all the problems mentioned there
but i cant figure out how to use it ..
i dont know how to use it on windows platform (yet the developer, bisqwit tells to use it in linux platform)

i already emailed him about 1 months ago and still have no reply.
may someone here other than the developer know how to use good of it ?
im waiting for any useful comments. Thanks in advance
