What program is best for translating Jap to English GBA Roms

Does anyone know if there is a site that shows you how to translate Roms, and what is the best program to use to do it?

I'm a newbie just learning to work with Roms, so any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

ZG

You need a Hex Editor, and the know-how to work one. Hex editors can be found almost anywhere.

the Best Device to use is a Hex Editor, or a Program Designed to edit a certain game.

Plus, You need to learn how or you wont be able to do shit.

Thank you

Thanks for that, I'll go have a look at the site.

What I'm hoping to do is Translate Pokemon Sapphire/Ruby to some form of English as most of the Roms I've found are not translated very well, plus I've seen a pre-realease of the US version so I know what all of the beginning text says.

Regards

Good luck it's good to see people helping out on the translation scene. If you're interested in being a part of it you might be interested in checking out the whirlpool http://donut.parodius.com/

Btw, the only thing that sucks though is by the time you're getting close to translating it, the full us release will be available online, but games like chocobo dice (i believe that's the name) and other like Tactics Ogre for the SNES that have never been released and never will be realeased to the US is where people really help the scene, you might wanna look into those games.

you're welcome.

Plus, Like uno said, why not start on some games that will never be Commercially english?

Why waste your Time Tranlating a game that'll be out in american in a month

A bit more Advice...

While translating roms, stay true to what the game actually says...

Dont add anything, dont take anything out, and dont change shit.
