Update log:

Version 1.7: I finally got the Japanese audio to work in conjunction with the Windows 9x FMV to sync properly, and playtested every FMV in Japanese in the rememberizer. Additionally, I edited out the Windows 9x credits from the final FMV, in both English and Japanese, removing the clash between them and the credits for the Apple version. “Movies” has been renamed “MoviesWD” for clarity.

Version 1.6: SoMoGa just updated the app to version 3.3.2, which replaces the .OGV files with smaller .M4V files, so I had to update my files as well. Also, I made some more edits in strings.json, mainly restoring WD boss names. Finally the new update changes the image file to replace so the opening credits will sync properly.

Version 1.5: I’ve started to rewrite some of the spell/item/location/enemy name changes. Still a WIP, but I’ve tested them, and had no issues, and am sharing what I’ve done so far.

Version 1.41: It now contains a missing file for the Japanese FMV only, the English version is unchanged.

Version 1.4: Reinstated the “Wheaties Joke”, also fixed the Outtakes ending prematurely issue.

Version 1.3: Successfully completed a playthrough of the game, found an issue with the Outtakes ending prematurely. No changes to the files themselves.

Version 1.2: Minor edits to the readme’s info. No changes to the files themselves.

Version 1.1: Fixed the “Touch” logo appearing out of sync by adding a blank .png image. Minor edits to the readme’s info.

Version 1.0: Initial release

Introduction:

This mod/romhack is designed to modify the game “Lunar: Silver Star Story Touch” on Apple Silicon Mac computers. It will not work on any other Apple devices, or the more recent Android port. Multiple mods are included:

1: Restoration of the 1999 Working Designs English dub from Lunar Silver Star Story Complete, in both the FMV and the normal gameplay voiced scenes. Some FMV edits were made to mimic the FMV edited by Working Designs. The outtakes were added onto the end of the last FMV (only in the English version, not in Japanese).

2: Incorporation of the FMV from the Japanese Windows 9x version. This version of the FMV has more vibrant colors than the ones normally present in SSST. Alternatively, the unedited Japanese FMV are included if one wishes to play the game in the Japanese language with the Windows 9x FMV.

3: SoMoGa’s script mostly sticks to the 1999 release of Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete. The “Wheaties joke” was removed, but I have restored it. Also various spell/item/location/enemy names were changed, which makes using the strategy guide difficult. This is being restored, still WIP.

Instructions for modding:

Unzip the folder “XA_WAV” from this download.  Replace all files in the folder “XA_WAV” in the following directory on your Mac with the files from this download:

/Applications/Lunar SSST.app/Wrapper/LunarTouch.app/LUNAR1DATA/Sounds/Track1/VOICE/XA_WAV

This restores the Working Designs voice acting in normal gameplay.

Unzip the folder “MoviesWD” from this download if you want to use the Working Designs dub OR “MoviesJapanese” if you want to use the Japanese sub. Replace all files in the folder “Movies” in the following directory on your Mac with the files from this download:

/Applications/Lunar SSST.app/Wrapper/LunarTouch.app/LUNAR1DATA/Movies

This restores the Working Designs Voice acting in conjunction with the Win9x FMV, and mimics edits that they made, OR uses the Japanese audio with no edits, whichever you choose. You can only have one FMV audio-track at a time, the in-game language option will no longer affect this. Subtitles are confirmed to work with the Japanese sub.

Replace the file  “logo_ios_fmv.png” with the file from this download in the directory:

/Applications/Lunar SSST.app/Wrapper/LunarTouch.app/LUNAR1DATA/XNA_UI/title

This replaces the opening logo with a blank .PNG as it no longer syncs properly with the modified opening FMV.

Replace the file  “TEXT002.DAT” with the file from this download in the directory:

/Applications/Lunar SSST.app/Wrapper/LunarTouch.app/LUNAR1DATA/Script/LangEN/Text

This file restores the “Wheaties Joke”

Replace the file “Strings.json” with the file from this download in the directory:

/Applications/Lunar SSST.app/Wrapper/LunarTouch.app/LUNAR1DATA/Script/LangEN

This file reverts some spell/item/location/enemy name changes (still WIP.)

Note that for “Lunar SSST.app” and “LunarTouch.app” you will have to right-click and click “Show Package Contents” in the pop up menu. If you update the game, the modded files will revert to the vanilla version. Simply repeat the process described above, and they will return to the modded state. That’s all, now start your adventure!

This is a fan-made project and is NOT officially connected with Lunar: Silver Star Story Touch, SoMoGa, GameArts, or any other companies involved in publishing it. Please support the official release! SoMoGa went to the trouble to port and maintain this game, so please show your support by buying the game, it’s only $9.99 in the USA, and the only way to play it on a modern system currently. Only the files necessary to modify the game are included in this download. No executables are distributed!
