Anyone know how to extract/read PC Engine CD Games?
« on: November 23, 2013, 03:13:07 AM »
I've translated NGPC, NES, HUCARD, and VB games. I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge about how to extract the PC Engine CD or Turbo CD games, I'd like to translate menus/items/controls for certain games and hope that someone in the future could do the dialogue. Anyone use a good tile editor? I've been using Tile Layer Pro set to Genesis to see Hucard text.

Looking at the games, it seems a lot of them should be 16x16 tiles.

YY-CHR works well enough for games without compressed fonts. It can view standard tiles and sprites data just fine.

Legend of Xanadu Kaze no Densetsu Xanadu II already has a team translating both the text and voice acting.

I haven't seen much on this since 2011-ish, any updates?
