Translate the Staff Roll (credits) #60

Open Blaziken257 opened 4 weeks ago

Naturally, at the end of Medarot 4, a staff roll appears. This can be accessed from the debug menu as the 19th option from the top (スタッフロール). It can also be accessed by directly editing C480-C481 to 2A 00. Some unique things about this game's staff roll:

Throughout the entire staff roll, there is a fancy graphical effect where the text grows and shrinks from the center. This replaces the vertically stretching text in Medarot 3:

The text produces a gradient effect by applying different palettes:

The gradient effect might be challenging to recreate with a VWF.

However, each text string has a random red character or two (palette 03: #d60000) for some unexplained reason. This appears to be a stylistic choice, since this also appears in the opening intro (before the title screen). Sometimes the random red character can replace a dark blue character, as seen below (notice the red ン).

M4 Credits Natsume Sound

Medarot 4 now ends with the grammatically correct "THANK YOU FOR PLAYING!", replacing the Engrish text, "THANK YOU FOR YOUR PLAYING!" that was present in Medarot 3 and Telefang. So this time, this doesn't need to be corrected.

M4 Credits Thank You

Finally, after that, there is an 64×16 hiragana font that appears:

The entire credits can be seen here, in case anyone wants to see the gradient and random red text (starting at 19:16): https://youtu.be/1TbszUfbSNA?t=1156
