Custom dialogue patch?
« on: February 13, 2018, 12:10:44 PM »
I'm looking into making a sorta troll patch, but I don't know where to start.

I've tried looking for tutorials, but I can't really find anything. Is there anyone who can help me?

For which game? Fan game? Official game? Have you tried contacting the people who made already translation patches?

The official games, mainly SA, but any other is fine.
I haven't thought about that, it might a good idea.

Touhou Patch Center has a section for troll translations so you could contribute to that. You should be able to find everything you need there.

We can also add a new "language" for your troll translations on Touhou Patch Center if you prefer.

Would it be possible to make a patch that's not accessible to the public? The one I'd like to make is for a friend.

Well, here, it becomes a bit harder. I think the easiest way is to edit our standalone patches.
- Download the standalone patch: https://www.thpatch.net/wiki/Standalone_Patches
- Extract it in your game's directory
- In the thcrap directory, remove thcrap_update.dll (otherwise update to the English translations on Touhou Patch Center would overwrite your troll translations).
- In the thcrap\thpatch\lang_en\th11 directory, you have a lot of files. Play with them. All the stXX_XXX.msg.jdiff contains the dialogs. The eXX.msg.jdiff files contains the endings. You also have the BGM names in thcrap\thpatch\lang_en\themes.js
- When you changed something, run th11 (thpatch-en).exe to test it
- When your patch is ready, send th11 (thpatch-en).exe, th11 custom (thpatch-en).exe and the thcrap directory to your friend.
