So I couldn't seem to find a thread on digging through the character dialogue in the main Touhou games, so could someone here give me a quick rundown? Just planning on doing a fun little translation someone gave me the idea for
Quick Synopsis of how far (or not) I've managed to get:
So, using the Touhou Toolkit, I've extracted the game files into a separate folder, from IN. This folder contains all of the images, soundtracks, and text for the game, but it's all compiled into *.rpy for the game demos, or *.dat for the "msg" files, which I assume are the actual dialogues. The *.rpy files are encoded with who-knows-what, and trial and error with jEdit hasn't gotten me anywhere for those. The *.dat files are just plain weird, and don't want to be opened by anything. Either I'm just being stupid and overlooked something, or more likely I just don't know.
If such a guide or just a summary already exists, I couldn't find it with the Search bar for MotK, so a link would be nice.
I should add that I'm not completely a noob to this kind of thing, I've done decompiles and mods/hacks of other games, but Touhou has different encoding and file structure.
