Ecco Jr. Translation Project

This fan projects provides a German translation for Ecco Jr. for the SEGA Mega Drive.

Info about translation

  • Has to have same number of newlines as original string
  • Has to have same length as original string

How to Build

  1. Use make patch to create the patch
  2. This will download dependencies and will do the actual patching:
    1. write.py writes language tables to a file. We defined the offset of the ASCII encoded text from the original game.
    2. enrich.py takes the content from strings_de.txt and enriches it into the language table at texts.json
    3. write.py reads the content from the enriched language table and writes it back to rom at the given offsets
  3. An IPS patch will be created
