Ruebled Official Thread

May I join the team? I would like to help with game translation (into Japanese & Welsh) and maybe ideas (Character design, etc.)

IF LANG==0 THEN ?"english"
IF LANG==1THEN ?"welsh"
...

?STRING$(LANG,"english","welsh", ...)
...
DEF STRING$(LANG,ENGLISH$,WELSH$, ...)
IF LANG==ENGLISH() THEN RETURN ENGLISH$
IF LANG==WELSH() THEN RETURN WELSH$
...
END
DEF ENGLISH()RETURN 0:END
DEF WELSH()RETURN 1:END
...

When I and GamerCymreig start work on the translation, how about doing this for every string of text so repeating code isn't necessary: Not:

IF LANG==0 THEN ?"english"
IF LANG==1THEN ?"welsh"
...

With your TEXT[rows] DEF it's not really viable to do this. Else do this:

?STRING$(LANG,"english","welsh", ...)
...
DEF STRING$(LANG,ENGLISH$,WELSH$, ...)
IF LANG==ENGLISH() THEN RETURN ENGLISH$
IF LANG==WELSH() THEN RETURN WELSH$
...
END
DEF ENGLISH()RETURN 0:END
DEF WELSH()RETURN 1:END
...

You won't need to rewrite one piece of code every time that text is supposed to be translated. With this you also save more room for other stuff before your main file reaches it's ultimate size of 2MiB.

Can you explain this a bit more to me, Cyberyoshi?

IF LANG==0 THEN ?"japanese"
IF LANG==1THEN?"english"

GPRINT 0,0,0,STRING$(0,LANG),1,1,-1

DEF STRING$(ID,LANG)
IF ID==0 THEN'First key value
IF LANG==0THEN RETURN"Hi!"'Text that gets output when LANG 0 is (English)
IF LANG==1THEN RETURN"Hallo!"'Text that gets output when LANG 1 is (German)
ENDIF
...'Here come the other text strings
RETURN"Oops..."'if invalid arguments were passed, this RETURN prevents the program from crashing.
END

answer to the above quote

Sure my STRING$() DEF is a mixture of the above 2 examples but the bottom code is a more viable option to me: Here's a piece of code similar to Alpha OS X regarding a string that's different depending on the language set:

IF LANG==0 THEN ?"japanese"
IF LANG==1THEN?"english"

The given text describes the language in this example here. In Windows 3DS, you sure noticed:

GPRINT 0,0,0,STRING$(0,LANG),1,1,-1

The STRING$ DEF simply outputs text depending on the key value in the 1st argument and language (using the LANG variable) in the 2nd argument.

The DEF

Use: STRING$(ID,LANG) Outputs a text based on the key ID and the language ID - The text string in question LANG - The translation for that text

DEF STRING$(ID,LANG)
IF ID==0 THEN'First key value
IF LANG==0THEN RETURN"Hi!"'Text that gets output when LANG 0 is (English)
IF LANG==1THEN RETURN"Hallo!"'Text that gets output when LANG 1 is (German)
ENDIF
...'Here come the other text strings
RETURN"Oops..."'if invalid arguments were passed, this RETURN prevents the program from crashing.
END

I recommend using this as this is just really light and makes it easier to translate without eventually running out of memory that quick, especially in games containing lots of translations.

Who owns a Circle Pad Pro for the old 3DS family members? It would be unfair. Whereever I look, this o3DS accessory doesn't appear anywhere in Saxony's electronic stores or secondhand shops. Amazon or eBay aren't options either. Also I don't think it fits on an o2DS because the ports and buttons are in a different place and the width (front to back) is as thick as a thumb at the top while the o3DS isn't. And I will never be able to own an old 3DS or the newer versions.

Who owns a Circle Pad Pro for the old 3DS family members? ...

They're only £10 in UK.

They're only £10 in UK.

But the Circle Pad Pro is definitely incompatible with the o2DS due to it's form factor and I wouldn't like to waste 70-100 € just to get it. Oh, and that was a topic around the turn to 2019 where I didn't have a n2DSXL.

I've translated most of the newest version to Japanese, I only have the story to do. I will do so in Welsh next. How is Ruebled pronounced?

Roo-Bled (bled as in the past tense version of bleeding) i think (although i could be wrong)

Ok people, I have just organized the files. ITS BEAUTIFUL!!! You start with the game file, then graphics, then extra PRGs, then data like BG, SD, etc. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^{Sorry for exclamation mark spam}
