Hi,

First you have to use the scrip http://aluigi.altervista.org/bms/visionaire.bms in the * .vis file for the game you want to translate (data1.vis: it's the first game, data2.vis: it's the second one ...)

Then you have to use the script made by swuforce in the file that contains the texts, it is usually the * .dat with the largest size.

Greetings.

Hello! I follow those steps. I used that script with .vbi file, and gets a file named xxxx.dat that contains binnary code and the translations, and an empty .txt with the same name. However, I see that with a previous version the script puts all translations in the .txt file with a NULL character at the end of every line. So I suppose there was a update that is not supported by the script.

I tried with .dat files and it doesn't work.

Thanks for your answer!

Ah I understand, you can try to use this script for extract the texts of the first game.

Code:

goto 8
get name basename
string name  = .dat
get size long
get zsize long
clog name 16 zsize size
open FDSE name
log MEMORY_FILE 0 0
get name basename
string name  = .txt
for
findloc offset string "\xff\xff\xff\xff\x06\x00\x00\x00" 0 ""
if offset == ""
get size asize MEMORY_FILE
log name 0 size MEMORY_FILE
cleanexit
endif
math offset -= 4
goto offset
get null long
if null = 0
getdstring d 8
else
getdstring d 8
get size long
savepos pos
get check byte
get check2 byte
get check3 byte
get check4 byte
if check = 0x00 ||  check = 0xff || check2 = 0x00 || check2 = 0xff
elseif check3 != 0x00 &&  check3 != 0xff && check4 != 0x00 && check4 != 0xff
goto pos
getdstring string size
get size long
getdstring string size
get lang long
if lang = 0
get size long
if size != 0
getdstring string size
putdstring string size MEMORY_FILE
put 0x0a0d short MEMORY_FILE
get null byte
endif
endif
endif
endif
next

But I think it's crazy to try to translate the game like that, I think it is necessary that someone with knowledge, can transform the *.dat file into an xml , as they were in the old version of visionaire, and thus be able to add the entries that you want to translate.


Greetings.

Hello, thanks for your script, and I get a bigger .dat with this, but still an empty txt. With a previous version of the game, you obtain a txt with this:

Code:

Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
Kapitel 1 
 
Start new game? 
Continue 
New Game 
Cargar/Guardar 
Settings 
Bonus 
Quit Game 
 
 - Developer Mode 
 
Settings 
Credits 
These changes will only take effect after rebooting the game. 
Subtitles 
Full Screen Mode 
High-resolution Videos 
Window Size 
Language 

(etc)

So each line of the txt was a line of the translation, and you only have to edit them (without removing a NULL character that was in the end of that line) and recompile again with deponia_tcj_import1.bms. But with a last update of the game, the txt goes empty...

Thanks for your answer.

Hi,

The script is working correctly for me, I think that you are not doing something correctly.

These are the files you need after using the two scipt, I modified the visionaire script to add the new Deponia Complete Journey key

https://mega.nz/#!IAIQxSJa!lRuEa90-rGvq ... ukYZFhjQsQ

Hello, thanks you!! The problem was that I trying to get the data from data vbin file, and the script seems to only work with data1 vbin. There is any script to work with data.vis vbin? To translate "New Game" etc?

Again, thanks you!!

EDIT: Did you have the scripts for data2.vis and data3.vis too, please? I tried with then and doesn't work either... (I mean, I tried the three scripts with both data2 and data3 vbins and nothing, I get an empty txt too.)

Hi,

I suppose it is for a translation in Spanish, the data.vis and data3.vis file, you do not need to translate them, I translated them some time ago.

Greetings.

Oh my god, thanks you so much!! Yeah, I want to do so.

Now, I tried to decompile .vbin from Deponia 1 and only get two line of text. Did you have scripts for the separated games?

I would need english and spanish txt from the individual games, because I'm planning to create a script that compares both english files, and introduce the spanish line that match.

I mean something like this:

Data1.vis from Deponia complete journey:
Line 1: Hello

Data.vis from english Deponia 1:
Line 30: Hello

Data.vis from spanish Deponia 1:
Line 30: Hola

So the script will replace line 1 of Data1.vis with line 30 of spanish Deponia 1.

Thanks again for your help!!

Hi,

I'm sorry, but that does not work:

The individual games use different engines, the texts are in a cxml file, the scripts do not work, the texts of the xml could be extracted in a txt, but they are disordered, even in the same xml where several languages are used for the same game the entries of the different languages are messy.

That is the first idea that was attempted. but it does not work.

The * .dat file is really an xml, the only way to do it would be for someone with advanced knowledge to convert the dat to xml file, insert the entries by id and then transform it back into * .dat to package it.

Greetings.

P.D (deponia_tcj_export0.bms for export data.vis, (deponia_tcj_export1.bms for export data1.vis...... deponia_tcj_import0.bms for import data.vis..... )

Hello again! Well, it's not a big deal actually. I get the xml with the ANB and I see that spanish lines are the ones that have T27="4". If the english lines (T27="1") are the same that the txt file of each game on Complete journey, the script could work. If there is a new english translation then won't work.

Thanks one more time!

Hi, I've been following the steps on this board to translate the game to my own language but unfortunately I don't seem to be able to insert back the .vis files.
I've tried the version of the script with The Complete Journey's Key and got this error for every single file:

Now there is a new problem: swuforce's tool doesn't work with the files for Deponia 3.
It uncompresses the file but it produces no .txt one.

If you want to translate Deponia - The complete Journey, I advise you to use the tools you will find https://zenhax.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=7391&hilit=vbin.
I have just tested it and it extracts the texts to be translated without any problems.
In the same way, you will be able to reinsert the translated texts.
I used these tools to translate Edna & Harvey: Harvey's New Eyes and The Four Last Things.
You will find in attached file the English text extracted from file 03135.vbin of data3.vis with these tools.

Don't use the tools on the vbi file obtained with the aluigi script.
You should only use the tools I mentioned to you.

Check before you start that the vis_key file in the tools has the correct key for the game (I have attached the file I used to extract)

Example for translating the vbin file from data3.vis
0) Put the data3.vis file in a directory containing the tools previously mentioned

1) use extract_vis on vis file

Code:

extract_vis data3.vis ORIG_DATA_3

2) use read_vbin on the vbin file to extract the text

Code:

read_vbin ORIG_DATA_3\03135.vbin -l 1 -t 03135_1_ref.txt

3) translate the resulting txt file 03135_1_ref.txt

Quote:

Attention! Don't overwrite the original text. The translated text must be in one of the columns next to the original text.

4) use modify_vbin to create a new vbin file

Code:

modify_vbin ORIG_DATA_3/03135.vbin VBIN_NEW/03135.vbin -t "03135_1_ref"

5) use replace_vis to create a new vis file

Code:

replace_vis "data3.vis" "data3_new.vis" VBIN_NEW

6) Replace the data3.vis file of your game by the data3_new.vis file you just created after renaming it to data3.vis

THANK YOU! It works now!
Editing the file is a little cumbersome, though. (I have to make sure I use the first space after the original line, not the last one).
To cap it of, would you recommend me an editor for the job?

The txt file extracted from the vbin file is actually a csv file.
Rename this txt file to csv in order to open it with Libre Office Calc or Microsoft Excel.
A csv file editor may also be appropriate.
The translated text must be in the 3rd column.
After translation, rename the translated file to txt.
