Translation Project - iDOLM@STER SP - We Need People!

what's a CFW?

Criminals of the Free World.

Serious answer: Custom Firmware.

[Exdeathmore]

I need some help with this. I downloaded the patcher and followed the instructions on the TLWiki page. I choose to add all the files in the fonts and scripts folder that are in the .rar, and when I click Apply, the patcher says only about half of the files successfully patched. Am I doing something wrong?

Also, the scripts folder is all .src files, but the example and tutorial pics say .txt files. Am I even adding the right files?

Edit: I tried starting the game, and everything was garbled and messed up.

Okay so I'm a bit confused at the download process. Does your PSP still need modifications or hacking done to it? Or does it work with a regular PSP?
I' new to the process of ISOs and such so I'm not quite sure what I'm doing...

[animagic4u]

^ Agree.

I know the translators tried to make it as easy as possible, but most of us know nothing about this stuff so we're a bit lost in the fray.

[Daverost]

ISOs only work with custom firmware. They don't run on official firmware.

Can you please list what items/things you have?I could probably help.
For Example: PSP, Memory Card, iM@S Perfect Sun UMD,etc....

Yey for translated Chihaya and Iori Route in SP

[Daverost]

Translated as in someone is doing it or as in someone already has or just as in you want it?

[starfighter9]

TLwiki has apparently finished those 2 routes (although WS still has some misc. dialogue untranslated).

http://tlwiki.org/index.php?title=Idolmaster_SP:WS
However the patcher is only compatible with PS so you need to do it the hard way with all their Perl scripts.

[Kimidori]

now that Chihaya router fully translated, I just applied the patch just to play her here.

[Bro]

So I'm giving it another try, now that my friend has supposedly found a working PSP emulator...

I'm attempting to patch Perfect Sun, but I'm not sure if I understand properly. Do I need to save every individual image and text saved on the wiki?
 

All the scripts show up as .src's, much like Exdeathmore, and I can't find any of the pictures.

Hurrdurr I'm probably being real dumb

[starfighter9]

The scripts should be .txt files, at least that's how they were saved on the wiki. Personally i just took everything from the project's blog (http://togiisei.wordpress.com/2011/09/02/script-collection/) and it seems to cover everything needed. If you don't have everything the patcher will just apply what you have so at worst you just end up with a few untranslated pictures here and there.

Edit: And if you were reeeaaaaally lazy you could just nab a download of the patched iso off the internet somewhere.

For those too lazy to study japanese
okay,looking at TLWiki and how they update like,once in a never:
December 14, 2012 - Yukiho's route translated
 August 20, 2012 - Chihaya's route translated
 August 19, 2012 - Iori's route translated
 November 11, 2011 - Yayoi's route translated
 November 11, 2011 - Makoto's route translated
 August 11, 2011 - Haruka's route translated

Makoto and Yayoi's route were translated in 70-90 days or so. Then nothing happened for  9 months, and then another 2 routes were finished. Then 4 months and then Yukiho's route came out
Assuming we can see the pattern here, In about 2 to 4 more months we can see Ami and Mami,or Azusa and Ritsuko.

[Cavity Dog]

There's not any kind of pattern to it, people come and go and everyone has a different work schedule.
The Perfect Sun routes were in various states of translation (some of it offsite) when the currently active group started on it, the other two games had very little done.
Iori and Chihaya moved slowly because there were less people working on them, Yukiho went fast because a lot of people came together to finish it for her birthday.
I think Ami and Mami are next in line for me after the DS manga scanlations are done, but I don't want to say it'll be done in 4 months. Sorry.

I can see Ami and Mami for the simple fact that once Haruka's Route was 100%,they did work on makoto and yayoi to make theirs 100% as well.
So presuming translation work is done on the game that has the most progress done, The Loli groups gonna be next.
unless its the 2nd missing moon girl.
Then we'll need to wait for a possibly simu-release
