Russian translation

[10522]

I found Russian translation for PC version here and here. Is it possible to add it to PS1 version?

The port doesn't support localization currently. Theoretically you could do this without modifying the game source itself by generating a new FontAscii.pbm using fontgen (you'll have to replace ANSI_CHARSET with RUSSIAN_CHARSET in fontgen.cpp), then regenerating all the stage banks and the main gfx bank using the data files from the Russian version you linked. In this case the menu will be still in English though.

Can you tell us in more detail how to edit *.stg files?

[fgsfdsfgs]

.stg files are stage banks generated by the stagepack utility. To build it and other utilities you'll need a MSYS2/MinGW install on Windows or gcc and make on Linux. When you have that set up, execute this in the MINGW64 prompt on Windows or your terminal on Linux:

cd tools
make

Copy the data directory from the PC version of CS to the tools directory (do not overwrite anything) and make the necessary changes to it. You can then rebuild the stagebanks like so:

./stagepack.exe  stagelists/stage_all.lst data ../data

All the .stg files in doukutsupsx/data will be updated.

You will need to edit the font as well. It can't actually be expanded to include Cyrillic characters without modifying the source code, but maybe you can just replace the Latin characters. The font is located in tools/data/FontAscii.pbm, which is just a 4 bit BMP file. After editing it, you need to regenerate the main.gfx graphics bank:

./surfpack.exe surflists/surf_main.lst ../data/main/main.gfx

If you wish, you can try modifying tools/src/fontgen.cpp to generate a bigger font that includes Cyrillic first, but I can't say if this will require any extra modifications for anything. This is the command that was used to generate FontAscii.pbm:

./fontgen.cpp -a "MS Gothic" 6 12 FontAscii.pbm

Thanks for the instructions! I get an error when rebuilding *.stg Even if I use the original files.

If you're on Linux or maybe WSL, this might be because the stage file is called Lounge instead of lounge, in which case you can just rename it either on disk or in tools/data/stagelists/stage_all.lst. If you're actually missing that file for whatever reason and you're sure it's not necessary, you'll have to delete the whole line where it's mentioned from tools/data/stagelists/stage_all.lst.

[Dima353]

Yes, the renaming worked.

Next I get this

loaded stage '  e_Blcn' (id 5d, size 021x016)
loaded stage '   Clock' (id 5e, size 021x016)

error: could not read 'data/sfxbnk/ending.sfx'
error: could not write bank for stage '0' (0)

These files are nowhere to be found

[fgsfdsfgs]

You'll need to regenerate the instrument banks for the music then. For that you need the Wave.dat file and the .org music files, which are embedded into Doukutsu.exe in the PC version. You can open the EXE with Resource Editor or 7-zip, the .dat file is called WAVE100. Extract it and place it at tools/data/Wave.dat. The .org files are in 1041/ORG.

If you don't want to bother, I've attached my .org files and wave.dat. Just extract the zip into the tools/data folder. data.zip

Afterwards, run

cd tools
mkdir -p data/sfxbnk
./make_banks.sh data/org data/Wave.dat data/sfxbnk 484912

Then run stagepack again.

Thank you for your help! I went to do :)

[Dima353]

Successfully translated dialogs and menus I can't find the names of the levels. Checked all files in src/game UPD: Found \tools\stagelists\stage_all.lst

[Dima353]

It seems that the file Armsites.tsc does not get into the new banks how to regenerate ArmsItem.bsc? UPD: oh... VS Code...

After editing Armsites.bsc and opening the menu with weapons, the game freezes... shit...

[fgsfdsfgs]

If you saved it as UTF-8 or something, that won't work. The extra TSC files (Credit.tsc, ArmsItem.tsc, StageSel.tsc) have to be recompiled into BSC if you change them, e.g.:

cd tools
./tscc.exe data/ArmsItem.tsc ../data/main/ArmsItem.bsc
