heya guys hopefully you can help me here. ive managed to rebuild the cd thanks to a wiki i found on this site, and have the japanese audio inserted and the disk work s and all. problem is the timing and audio pointers are mixed up.
what i mean is the japanese audio is being utilized with the english timing and pointers.
also worth noting is that on this game the audio files are baisically one big cd like file with tracks hidden inside.
whats happeneing is lets say the for a particular dialogue box with spoken words in the english the game goes like this. play track 1 for 1 second than pause. wait for dialogue to switch to next box play track 1 from last point for 3 seconds and pause. etc.
now since the japanese spoken word is a fair bit longer and bigger than the english when the game pauses the japanese audio it is usually not complete for the given dialogue box and when the box switches the previous spoken word is continued and everything gets misaligned from there.
furthermore ffor spells and and combat moves the pointers seem to be mixed up completely. like for example in the first boss fight the boss casts thunder blade but speaks ground dasher.
i hope im explaining this right.
what im really looking for is a way to identify the file that controls audio timings and pointers if such exists.
there are a number of folders data/field/movie/sg/xa
i figure it has to be somewhere in the data folder.
also worth notice is that the english disk has an aditional file M.B that the japanese disk does not have.
anyway im pretty novice at this and it may be beyond my abilities but anyhelp figuring this out would be appreciated.
included is a pic of the files on the disk excluding the movie and xa folders.
