Hello,
I'm working on the french translation of this beautiful game.
I have one problem: I don't know where the font is. I want to add the special caracters (é, è, ê, ô, à ,î) but I didn't find it.
Can anyone help me??
Thanks

Trying to... I thought it was 4bit but failed to find anything. The only thing I have at hand is the width of characters.

I tried to find the palette I'm not sure how I can extract a color. I tried Screen/Paste in mspaint and took the R/B/G values and my hex search gave me no results.

I'm clueless right now.

I have to find it too. I need to create a one byte " ' " and one byte " ... "
D9B6D9B6D9B6 (6 bytes) displaying " ... " could then be compressed from 6 to 1 byte. :)

Aren't fonts in PSX games a TIM file?  You can extract those, at least, although I dunno how to insert them.

I found it. If you want to save space you will HAVE TO create 1 byte characters.

They are not in a image format, which is pretty weird.

SCUS_942.21
0xFF8FC
This is the table which contains the width of all characters.

0xE7E14
As for the graphics

35 Byte long
2bit Palette

11 Peach
10 Dark
01 Black
00 Invisible

Basically 5 nibble per line, since a character stores 10 pixels per line.

Uhhh. because it's its graphical structure?

It's 2bit, so 4 pixels displayed per byte. And 2.5 bytes for a line.

Kay?

Code a program?

I did make something in Excel but it can only display 1/10 of all characters at the same time so its rather unpractical. Stupid excel limitations.

If you can't get the Analyst toolkit from your Excel CD, a version is available on the site (downloads).

As for the program, I'm uploading it as typing, so I'll tell when it's done.
