ya, it's already been patched by hackers (such as myself). It only took like a day to fix that, now they're working on an english patch, which sounds difficult

Well hackers are resourceful and if they have patched the anti piracy I am sure they can change some text strings.

O.o

Take the .sseq file SEQ_BGM_POKECEN from Black and overwrite SEQ_GS_WIFITOWER in Heart Gold and go to the Global Terminal. You'll be surprised.
Also, take the Pokemon Center sseq file from HG and overwrite it with the BW PC theme. You'll get another surprising result.

Ok, so i found where the .BTX files are for the overworlds (I hope) But i only saw them in Kiwi i couldnt open them as Tahaxan doesent work for me. So if anyone can check it out They might be at a/0/1/4 Go check it out on tahaxan!

can anyone confirm this?

Confirmed.

Am working on this for White, will look into for Black and do some serious comparion.

Seems like each location slot have 116 bytes EACH!!!

AND 146 LINES of 116 bytes per line, lol!

Peace.

It's probably not a wild guess to imagine the Pokémon Center music was either worked on early in the music process when the instrument numbers were the same as HGSS or that the composer used those patch numbers as a reference when making the song.

So i tried opening the ows in Tahaxan, but that didnt work so the only other possible thing to do was to extract and open in BTX Editor which doesent recognize the file even thought it IS a .btx So i can't imagine any way to do it unless Magius updates the program. If any of you have an idea of how you could open the .btx files through an other program, please tell me!

I find that odd. Maybe the .btx is in a different format the program doesn't understand? IDK. :\

[axlefoley]

does any one happen to know the hex numbers for attacks yet (i'm talking attacks not tm/hms)

Software for editting directly isn't everything my friend.
Hacking started and IS STILL deeply rooted in editted HEX as opposed to using tools that make everything seem easier when they're mostly very glitchy.

If they can't use a tool to edit the text directly, they'll do so by using a Hex Editor.

[Heart's Soul]

Yeah, I have two versions of Black. My dump and my dump with the KazoWAR patch. Text editing does exist. It was done. Very flawed, but still.

Yup. Saw a translation on YouTube. Nintendo mangled the English text badly.

[aSeRo141414]

is anyone can extract it?

I'll look on Google for a tool. If it's on a Forum, I'll upload it to a media hosting site and link the file here.

KazoWAR quickly made a translation, not Nintendo. Nintendo is working on a perfect translation right now.

No, not the translation. The text itself, it's apperance. It looks horrible compared to the 4th gen text. The letters are different size, whereas the 4th gen letters were the same size. A lower-case "I" is two pixels too short. It looks bad in other text.

Is there anyway to find encounter rates for Pokémon Black and White? Someone please help.
