[Copied from RHDN]
This originally started as a small addendum patch to simply fix the few instances of “breached boxes,” where text cuts off the border in part of a menu. However, the author ended up finding more and more admittedly somewhat small things to fix. Finally, the author used the great tool IPS Peek to restore the monster “options” menu and make it actually display which ones are selected, and with that there was finally a justification to actually release this.
Please note that the author does not speak any Japanese. There are some instances of untranslated material “translated” here, namely by going off of their function instead of the actual text–for example, if one has no items, the item menu now reads “Nothing.” The author figured that giving people some clue about what is going on is better than nothing at all.
Finally, this is still not a perfect release. In particular, the Sample Import menu remains quite garbled-looking in a few places; the author would greatly appreciate it if someone found the location of these menus and reported it to him.
CHANGELOG
The changelog for this patch used to be shown in this description, but it has gotten rather unwieldy, so it can now be found as a file inside the archive[.]
PATCHING
There are two patches. CLEAN is for vanilla ROMs, while PATCHED is for ones you already put the [other] translation on. As always, never use both at the same time. The patches are in the IPS format, and can be applied using e.g. Lunar IPS (https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/240/).
