i took a peek at nanodiever just out of curiosity.
it just so happens that i have already reverse engineered this format completely, and have access to graphics, texts, models and whatever else there might be.
i only looked at it very quickly, but as you can see, the main data file is extractable and rebuildable.
inside the arcbin is a folderstructure shown in my screenshot, which contains a large number of par archives. some of them are compressed, some are not.
the compression of the par archives is gzip.
the 3d model files of the game are .pmd files, and their respective textures are .pta files. .pta files are basically a .gim graphic with a header, very easy to edit.
the texts are mostly plain text, and a lot of it could be patched into english simply by using a hex editor.
the filetype of the text files is generally .bin, which doesnt tell you much, under the bin you have a set of scriptfiles with PASP and PSR signatures, a set of cxml files (compressed xml's if i had to quess) and a pile of .pasrtbl tables.
As already said, generally everything here is only protected by the compression of the par acrhives and the generic obfuscation of the main arcbin, so dealing with parsing them is just a matter of spending 10 minutes looking at how they work.
the formatting of the text files is the only difference there is to a project i originally designed these tools for. It exists there too but differs slightly, so it would have to be properly parsed for a 100% translation.
aside that, there's nothing much to sneeze at. it's a really easy game to hack.
i wouldn't lie much if i said i could deal with all the files inside it within a week at most.

im already working on 2 games myself, so no chance on my end.
if someone does start messing with it though, i can provide some assistance whenever my time allows for it.

That was what I thought, I was thinking about ask you for some assistence.
But there's two problems that I'll have to deal with:
1-I don't know Japanese.
2-I don't know how to hack.
But if you can give me some directions I may be able to learn how to hack, I'm interested in that.
as much as i'd love to play the sensei here, i simply dont have time for such things. im already struggling to make ends meet with the things im working on.
Is there any guide or anything that I can read for understanding the "basics" of hacking? I don't mind waiting for a while, but it would be good to have some directions with the tools so I can try it, I can try to figure it out if it's not so hard.
dunno, i learned by popping files open in hex editor and and staring at them until they started making sense. Propably not the best or most efficient way to learn but oh well.
Impressive, its look like doing a translating game soo chalanging, and it seems look complicated, you know, beside you riping its content, you translated it and put it in again >.<
I'm trying... Hum... *Lots of reading*... I hope to get something out of it fast.
I already like and. Follow hopung to add me in your list of giv8ng the kinks yiee
Lately psp can be played on emulators, thats why psp games still healthy alive, i wonder android, no, another emulator users like me still want playing psp games, despite android games has better dense of pixel but psp with high resolution its really something, its evolving you know, it can use physic controller, so i'm using ps3 wirelles controller for getting better experience,
i just thingking why japanesse games soo special, because its not heating up my phone even played hours in high resolution, i was tried god of war its heating up my phone like hell just in minute, but not type0 with equal outstanding graphic, and like this tittle toukiden that trung senpai working on it, english ver is on vita, but playing on emulators make playing toukiden in vita being not an option hahaha, if more japan games in english how will be crazy is that??

Ya ~ I would think about it, but I think the Lord of Apocalypse is not too hard to need a patch, items are easy to find and the missions is easy to understand. (ﾟ∀ﾟ)

It is not so hard, if you patience to play it and watch it closely. I think you will solve the language problems, not every Japanese game is too difficult. (ﾟ∀ﾟ)
