basically: explain to me like im 5

i have almost no prior experience with modding other than some programming classes in high school which really went over my head lol, but ive been wanting to make what is essentially a translation mod for the steam port of the game "the silver case". i have the asset files for the script and dialogue of the game, and im wanting to go into the txt files and edit the text, and put it back into the game as a mod. i found an obscure guide online for the ps4 version of the game, which starts off essentially the same as pc but uses the .psarc format rather than something like .dll. essentially i want to edit the text, and repack those assets into a modified assembly-csharp.dll (i think is the name unless im misremembering) which im having a hard time finding advice for online, unless im looking in the wrong places. hopefully this makes sense, im happy to provide more explanation if it doesnt hah

any help is greatly appreciated ^^

Just use UABE to export and import.

texts for TheSilverCase is in resources.assets, not assembly-csharp.dll( the only time you'll need to modify the dlls is when you try to translate the names popping out for every character)

And this site has some debug information
projectsilver.free.fr

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
