Dear metagames forum,

(My french is bad so I'll write in English if this is OK for you)
I am experimenting with Shenmue 1 to get a version with japanese audio and english subs (something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLCLgDiMmfs)

I got the GDI's of the game(s), the tools and this tutorial:
http://www.hiei-tf.fr/shenmue1-howto...e-english.html
but I have some problems with this now.

I am experimenting with chapter 12 in the tutorial and i managed to get a PAL version with injected JAP Streams working on nulldc with perfect audio and lipsync. But then after trying to translate the japanese into english subtitles there is no audio anymore (it does not work).

So I'd like to ask now, whether there is someone here who had similar problems and whether there is a solution for this problem.

Did you copied the SRF files straight from the English version or did you attempted to edit the japanese subs into English?

[CollectorSoul]

Forst of all thanks for the fast reply!

After testing the PAL version with the complete japanese stream i began modifying the japanese original stream folder. I did not wan't to insert the .srf's from the english original because I read that this will result in having no lipsynch or errors because of wrong amount of lines (f. e. translating a japanese sentence which had 1 line in english by using 2 lines for the english one).

I am not sure whether this problem results from corrupted files (.afs / .idx) or wrong modification operations.

I am looking forward to any kind of answer!

I had the same problem with Shenmue II; I tried to add the English XBOX voices to Dreamcast version and then add the Dreamcast european (Japanese voices) subs, but translated, and got similar problems like you did (Audios not playing, or playing but showing the wrong subtitle).

In your specific case, I do remember that the tools were made for the English subs, so perhaps something's wrong or different on the Japanese subs. You'll have to wait until Sizious gets here so you can get a more accurate answer.

Oh, and if you need any help with testing or other stuff, I'll be glad to assist.

Hey guys!

I MADE IT!
It was my fault! I have not followed the guide like I should have and so
it was sure that it won't work. Here is what I found out (maybe there will be someone who has the same problems):

The easiest way to get a Shenmue 1 with japanese audio and english subtitles is to take the core of a NTSC-U or PAL version and inject the japanese audio stream into it. Then you "only" have to edit all those (hundreds of) subtitles because the notebook and the menus etc. are done already.

If you want to translate the subtitles according to this guide:
http://www.hiei-tf.fr/shenmue1-howto...e-english.html
you have to be carefull about this:

After translating the .srf files with AIO editor I always generated my new .afs file with afsutils like this:
Tools > AFS creator (inside the afsutils GUI) by adding the directory (f. e. A0114) instead of the .xml file (f. e. A0114_list.xlm)
I think that was the reason why the generated AFS file was corrupted and why it was not possible to create a valid idx file (and if the afs and idx are screwed up logically there won't be any audio and subtitles in the scene)

I am going to make a shenmue translation guide in pdf (based on this tutorial above with extra pictures and notes) and i'm gonna release it so that nobody has to waste his time on that kind of problem again.

I will also now continue my experiments with shenmue 1 translations to see whether it would be worth to make a modd or not and how much resources it would consume.

PS: About Sizious... I contacted him last year about the same issue but now as I found the solution he doesn't have to waste his time over that again ^^

I will write on sunday or saturday again!

If the .XML import is going wrong (Are you importing a .XML from the japanese ADX or from a English .ADX?), then let's hope Sizious hears this.

"Take the core and inject?" Does that mean extracting an english AFS and overwriting the contents with the japanese .strs? Please explain.
