RENT-A-HERO No.1 - ENG

[Nico0020]

Mapped every function connected to Debug Menu and forced it to show in pause screen.
Still requires a number of manual input in RAM to work, but it's operational!



Out of the several debug screens, this one is a goldmine:

It's a hidden developer message board:


This one is from legendary Hironobu Kageyama (composer of Dragon Ball Z songs, which made RAH intro):


There's a large number of untranslated text, so if anyone want to help out with translation is more than welcome!

I'm willing to translate any difficult Japanese. PM me with anything. More than willing to help

Just breaking in with a surprise update!



Normally inaccessible from the game: "Battle Effect Set Mode" is back from the past!
I've only partly restored this one, so more debug functions / parameters still need to be located / loaded in. This game really have alot to offer on debug front!
The goal is restoring "Debug Menu" code (not working atm) as it is connected to key functions of the game, perfect for translation purposes!

On Beta Testing subject, after compressing scenario size and new name entry (yes it's a another surprise!), we got a few bugs to address due to chars not rendering properly and Nanashi is doing an awsome job on fixing it!

Beautiful! so, We will have a fighting ShenMue style game too with this!

The existence of the XBOX English prototype is what got this whole project started in the first place!

Wishing you all the best for your summer vacation, let's get on with latest RAH progress report!

- Nanashi have fixed Save Menu text display which were causing a number of issues breaking Data and cutting Location max size!

- I've edited and remade a number of Ending PVRs which are now translated in english, other than that it's all bound to a brand new ASM function which I want to keep for a surprise effect!

- Ensoku and ONESTAR joined RAH translation party and will soon get on the few remaining parts of 1RENTA.bin chunks!

Expect detailed info regarding Beta Testing in the next progress report!

I'm pretty sure this is half-width and not variable-width, but either way VincentNL and team are doing AN AMAZING JOB on this project! Going to be great to play the final release.

Like often in japanese the vwf is only one value.
And I'm agree, it looks they reduce it to an half.

Looking forward to the release Vincent. Keep up the good work.
