Wikifang:Telefang 1 Translation Patch

Welcome! This page follows the updates on the Telefang 1 Translation Patch (currently active on Tulunk Village).

Started out as a vision and a thought, the members of Tulunk Village worked together to work towards what one day we would all achieve - a completely translated Telefang 1, as a proper English replacement to supersede the currently infamous bootlegged version.

Although still a work in progress, one day we can all realize this dream.

Version 5

By Andwhyisit

• Made some name adjustments plus cleaned up alot of the squashed effect with the names.

http://www.mediafire.com/?ifvznqpr3m6

Version 5.1

By Blaziken257

• Added "___ appeared!"
• Changed "Escape" to "Run"
• Added the "Fight"/"Run" text in the battle screen
• Added the types (used the same ones as the bootleg, because there's a 4-character limit, but I capitalized "Wood")

http://z15.invisionfree.com/Tulunk_Village/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1495075

Version 6

By Blaziken257

• Replaced "You defeated the enemy Denjuu!" with "The enemy Denjuu were defeated!" It means the same thing, but you don't have to worry about the was/were thing.
• Edited the screen where you pick your Denjuu. If you have none, it now says "- None -" and the top-right says "Pg."

http://z15.invisionfree.com/Tulunk_Village/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1495784

Version 7

By Blaziken257

• When viewing the D-Shot on a regular Game Boy, it loads different tilesets (from $1E4000-$1E7FFF, as opposed to $1EC000-$1EFFFF). Those buttons were redisigned, but only for the monochrome Game Boy so that we could still have the already existing ones.
• Added "ISOLATE" as a T-Fanger.
• Added the "NO SIGNAL" icon on the bottom left.
• Changed "___'s attack! ___!" to "___ used ___!" because of the text length issue.

http://z15.invisionfree.com/Tulunk_Village/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1498440

Version 8

By Andwhyisit

• discovered where the preset name is (it is limited to 3 characters and each character is stored separate from each other), attempted to squeeze Shigeki into the 3 tiles.
• cleaned up names, renamed "Krypto" to "Crypto" (in both the Denjuu names and Dialoue text), and added the 's symbol (hex value 06).

http://www.mediafire.com/?655woxsybdm

Version 9

By Blaziken257

• Translated Crypto's picture book entry. Scrunched down so that it fits two lines.
• Changed "___ used ___!" to "___'s move! ___!" There weren't any issues with text wrapping here.
• Revamped the phone button graphics to the Game Boy Color. In case anybody liked the old ones better, THOSE were moved to the Game Boy ones for now. Also added are the Speed buttons, unused.
• Added "You received ___ mail messages." There were different lines of text for each number (1-4), so there weren't any singular/plural issues.
• The NO SIGNAL fixed.
• Fixed the chopped off 0 on the phone.
• Added "I tell you my phone number!" because I got tired of looking at the garbled text, though since I just took it from Diamond, it's probably inaccurate.

http://z15.invisionfree.com/Tulunk_Village/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1516892

http://www.sankysoft.com/tulunk/TelefangPatchV28.ips

Version 29

By Andwhyisit

• Created some asm code to allow running asm code from the previously empty bank 1.

http://www.mediafire.com/?kotnb5gygmx

• Replaced the place names with correct translations (see here).

http://www.sankysoft.com/tulunk/TelefangPatchV30.ips

http://www.mediafire.com/?njzy2dmhl3j

Version 33

Skipped by Sanky for unknown reasons. Shame on him! (okay actually this version had the modified intro but not the other changes)

Version 34

By Sanky

• Title screen now says "POWER VERSION".
• New lines in the intro are modified to make full use of the VWF.
• Labels on the map when you press start are done (again!). Includes full names like Toronko Village instead of Toronko Vill.. The only shortening is Pepperi Mount., because Pepperi Mountain didn't fit by one character.

http://www.sankysoft.com/tulunk/TelefangPatchV34.ips

Version 35

By Andwhyisit

• Solved a problem with the VWF code.

http://www.mediafire.com/?pttatgp7pog6mg9

Version 36-38

Andwhyisit: v36: Ported back over the changes from v29. v37: Didn't go anywhere really. Dropped v37 and started the counter back up at v38 because v37 was going in the wrong direction and needed to be scrapped and stated again from v36. v38: Restructured some of the VWF code to make it easier to read.

Version 39

By Andwhyisit

• Rewrote all suspect "LD (nn),A" and "LD A,(nn)" in the code so that they wrote to and read from an otherwise unused section of ram. THIS FIXES THE DENJUU CALL GLITCH.

http://www.mediafire.com/?y5v2owpiwc3cp0r

Version 40

By Sanky

• Made various ASM fixes to get rid of the disappearing first character bug:

Made this change:
3E 08      ld a,08
3E 07      ld a,07
on the following adresses:
Status screen personality  - 9164
"Fight" upon opening moves - 14CCA
In-battle Denjuu names     - 17633
                             142F0
                             
Additional in-battle Denjuu name fixes:
ROM:017E2C  CD 61 64    call 6461
ROM:017E2C  00 00 00    nop nop nop

ROM:01594B  CD 61 64    call 6461
ROM:01594B  00 00 00    nop nop nop

This fixes the Denjuu name after winning:
ROM:017363  3E 04       ld a,04
ROM:017363  3E 03       ld a,03
