It may or may not be useful. http://hackgames.geo.jp/Romhacking/Toruneko3gba/ Oh! Very exciting! I have previously fallen down a rabbit hole of modifying and hacking further with Final Fire Pro Wrestling, I figured out how to change the wrestlers and spent months updating them all. This might be something I look at in a bit more detail for Torneko in the future though! I've got a couple of screenshots and wanted feedback on the item name layout. I'm finding I've got to compromise with names as in most cases I only have a certain number of letters to work with. The only rule I'm sticking with so far is no spaces in any item names. I get an extra letter back that way, and even if I have room for a space I'd rather the item names all looked uniform. The next issues I've run into is whether I come up with abbreviations for items e.g. Wooden Shield - I can only fit 7 characters do I go with "WoodShd" or "Wooden" and rely on the icon identify the type of item it is? I'm siding more with the latter because it looks cleaner, but wanted to see what other people though. I'm sure a better translator would just figure out how to expand the size of the ROM, and I might do one day but for now I want to create something playable.

Plattym3 2,507 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I'd go with Wooden. The icon is good enough to tell what's what. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I've gone through all of the items I'd already translated and followed that format, I'd compromised so much in some places but now it looks so much cleaner. I'm hoping to have news about an early-access demo before too much longer. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Tigermask 54 Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 Planning the have a release on the 6th March! One thing I have learned is I need to share more information about this patch as it comes along. All of the items and monsters are translated, part of the story and some dungeon text. There's still a long way to go but I'm planning on regular releases after this. I'll also be looking for volunteers to test too! A couple of people have tried playing so far but I'll have something more structured in the way of testing in the future. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know how you've localized the title, but may I suggest DRAGON QUEST Mystery Dungeon: Torneko Taloon's Terrific Treasure Hunt 3? (Plus a subtitle if necessary, I can't remember if there is one in Japanese. Link to post Share on other sites

Bururian 590 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Gonna have to give this game a shake when it releases. I love Mystery Dungeon games, but the only ones I've played is the original one, the PS1 version we got here, and Adventure Bar Story on the 3DS. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Adventure Bar Story is not a Mystery/Roguelike game. That's just a straight up JRPG with a buttload of item creation. Basically it's like the Atelier Iris games on PS2. It's got turn-based battles that break away to their own screen, it's not you move/monster moves like Torneko games. Link to post Share on other sites

That's one I'd never heard of, but oh yeah, that's definitely one. Looks like that company Rideon makes a bunch of budget games in various formats. I have Bar Story, mainly because I really enjoyed their Tavern Story game. Link to post Share on other sites

Funny enough I got Adventure Labyrinth because I wanted a Mystery Dungeon game that wasn't Pokemon, and at the time there wasn't a lot out there. I tried One Way Heroics, but it wasn't really clicking with me, and I wasn't willing to pay what people online were asking for Shiren the Wanderer on the DS. I also didn't have Torneko: The Last hope like I do now. I can only play so much of Torneko no Daibouken in Japanese. Gotta at least know what I'm doing, and I'm sure there's a patch for that game somewhere online, too. On 1/30/2021 at 11:19 AM, Tigermask said: Oh! Very exciting!

I know the name and about the mods, but don't think we've ever spoken! I think there are two main forums now, one for the vanilla version of the latest game and one for the mods etc. I could be wrong because I'm very much out of the loop. My Fire Pro experience consists of playing with my friend Brendon when he can come over (Lockdown is easing so it's been a fair few months since he's be allowed to come over and hang out!) I'll have some screenshots of Torneko to share today. Just shed a bit more light on what I've done for the release. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Tigermask 54 Posted Wednesday at 09:15 AM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 09:15 AM As promised, I've got a few screenshots and bits of information to share before the first early release: Main Menu Spoiler The main menu is pretty much there. Some parts that are missing related to save data (e.g. location or other save information). The English text input still needs some TLC. Uppercase characters work fine but I can't get the lowercase to display properly. Story Mode Spoiler ] I hadn't intended on doing a great deal of the story for now, however I'm planning for my focus to be on the story for the next patch. I've translated a lot of the first day or so you're in town, up until you're about to leave the village. I've also translated the majority of the priest dialogue. Also text relating to searching barrels and opening chests! Dungeon Text Spoiler Some of the battle text translated. I'm not happy with the "Name"!! when something attacks but it'll have to do for now! I'll also expand on some of the dialogue for the partner in your party for the next release. All of the monsters are full translated. There will be a few changes along the way but at least everything has a name! The Adventure Results screen. Just the result details to do, there are SO MANY different deaths! Dialogue with the party members is coming along. Just menus for now but clearly a lot to do with Party Chat! All of the items are translated. Again, some of these will get tweaked but everything has a name. Sorry it's only Copper swords and Wooden shields, that was literally all I could find this morning! Only a couple of days to go until the release. It will be available on the 6th March 2021 via the Mystery Dungeon Wiki discord: https://t.co/HoXVtaZsWl?amp=1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
