Super Robot Wars GC Translation Thread #28: Charlton Heston edition

>VF kun knows a translator. He's working on some new project.

He's working on Endless Frontier EXCEED.

There will be a lot of delays since he's handling everything on his own, without having a background in hacking a game.

One of the guys on gbatemp/romhacking has been kind enough to ask around to help him out.

Everything that's not in a text box has been translated. Right now what's causing delays is the fact that he can't get at the text in the text boxes.

I'm just the messenger, I'm not involved on any of this. If there's any news I'll drop by to post about it.

If anyone wants to help out, you can drop by #SRWEternity on IRC Rizon. The translator hangs out there.

OK, I forgot which project he ended up finally decide to work on. Now that you mention it, I remember the screenshots from EF EXCEED on /srwg/

Damn that old thread

This is my fault! I should've been more careful!

...No really. See, I checked the other day. Thread was on page 6, okay, lasts for most of the night, I'll bump later before I go to bed, I figured

I came back later, couldn't find the thread. Check archive. ...It was the very first thread there, having just gotten bumped off

Onoreeeeeee

>Thread was on page 6

See, I bump these threads when they hit page 6 because I usually make the new general threads at the same time so I go and check on these threads since they pop up along /srwg/ in the catalog.

Usually I'm luckier catching these!

...On that note why is this on page 10 gdi

>>14926509
Once again on page 10, let me save this before making the new general.

Thanks Gigan. I managed to get one of my eyelids swollen, either from too much staring at my monitor, too much reading, bad sleep habits, or a combination of the above reasons. I'm keeping my computer time down to a minimum this weekend, hopefully that will help.

>>14929538
You probably want to check with the doc, though, just in case?
I mean - it could be a stupid moskito sting, couldn't it?

>>14930351
No, not that kind of swollen. It's the puffy salt-rention from not enough sleep kind of look. I just need to give my eyes a rest and get my sleep schedule back to normal.

Page 9 bump

Bump!

>>14935202
Thanks for the (you). I'll add it to my collection and treasure it.

>>14935767
Bump from near the grave

This is SRW GC, not SRW W!

Bring, that shitposter is delirious and lost, beyond recovery. Talking to him won't do any good.

So, not exactly good news, but not exactly bad news either. I was refreshed, and did some more experimentation with the font loading. I noticed that if I'm in HLE and skip BIOS, the decompressed font is in memory immediately. (address 0x802caffc).

So, I went to LLE with BIOS. I followed the execution until the font shows up in memory. Unfortunately, it looks like this is added to RAM by a DMA or something similar. The last thing that I'm looking at, is a loop with the CPU querying 0x8145D998 until it gets a non-zero response. When it gets that, the memory is filled with the font data. Next time, I'll try backtracking from where I ended up and see if I can't figure out some of those commands. However, I'm going to have to brush up on the memory-mapped IO commands on the GC.

Sounds similar to when the PSP loads files (or chunks of files) in RAM from the disk. It's just plain driven bby the OS in that case (which would have meant, for the PSP, using only features of the OS... compression included.)

Could it be the same here?

And up you go

>>14941971
That was my suspicion as well. However, that makes me think that maybe the Dolphin team knows how it loads files to memory.

Darn, nothing in the YAGCD doc about those addresses.
