This is a dump of the encoded text from luna2win.pac. It's technically not a complete script dump, as there's some other text in that file as well (and maybe the exe itself), which I think MrRichard999 and Helly already took care of in the partial translation patch.Anyway, I'm not doing anything with this right now (prioritize The Third Book because it. I just like the game a lot!), but if someone else wants to take it up, feel free to. A few points:- The @'s mark line breaks.- The text CANNOT be reordered.- There're a bunch of spaces after each string. Idk how relevant these are.
You probably don't want the English text to exceed the length of the Japanese text + spaces though.For the tool, just drop luna2win.pac in the same folder as the exe (debugbin? How does Visual Studio organize this stuff:P) and run the exe.Script:Tool:Also, one major caveat: I'm not entirely sure how successfully an English script could be reinserted. If the spaces after each line aren't actually relevant it SHOULD? Be more doable. Okay, so did some more research regarding the data files that LD1 and 2 use.
This mostly applies to both of them.1. Lines of text are formatted so that you have the actual line of text, a @ to indicate where the line ends when the game displays it, and then several spaces worth of padding after that. Spaces go up to the max line length for a given section.2.
LD1 breaks its script up into multiple files. LD2 has a single archive file with everything squished together in it.
I THINK the byte 0x80 indicates where the end of a 'file' is in luna2win.pac.This matters because different 'files'/sections in the script have different max line lengths (in bytes).This also matters because 0x80 isn't anything in UTF-8 so it kind of breaks when you try to edit the script. I'll probably change the script dumper to decode 80 to. I don't know, ^ or + or =, just so it can properly re-encode that back into 0x80.3.So I pulled out the request descriptions (or at least some of them) from LD2. The maximum line length here is 190 bytes total. English text is going to be one byte per character, so that means you can have 190 bytes of text total, including the @.If any line of text is under 190 characters (including the @), you need to pad the line with spaces after the @, out to 190 characters.
