Translating Dungeons and Dragons Tower of Doom 1.0

[Lirinica]

Main story 100%
Glad to have made it this far.

Now I still need to translate things like chest messages and broken equipment, and the item names that appear in the top right.

2025 is looking like a good year for translations. Keep it up!

Any dl links for the patch yet?

First of all, I would like to congratulate you on this fantastic release of the Tower of Doom translation. It is certainly the realization of many people's dreams to see this game translated into English for the Saturn. Do you have any plans to translate Shadow of Mystara as well?

I would like to have a conversation with you, a little more direct if possible. I am also Brazilian too and would like to present a translation project (where perhaps you could help me) as well as exchange information.

Thank you.

Thanks for doing this and releasing it into the wild. I hope its not your last translation 🙂

@Lirinica thanks for the great work! I did a quick "soaking" test with a Saroo (ODE) and the game run without crashing or weird sounds/gfx for over one hour.

Excellent progress! I honestly think that this will be bigger (for me) than anything Saturn related this year!

I appreciate your hustle. If you need any audio editing & engineering, please let me know.

Probably not, and of course it's easy to guess what the next one will be.
But for now, thanks to everyone who enjoyed this release.

I had some fun mods I wanted to make and some notes about the game I had to explain but I reached my time limit (in fact I already exceeded my time limit a long time ago) but who cares.

Until the next project.

First of all really cool and awesome.
Second there's no instructions on what file to actually apply the patch to 🙁
.chd? .iso? .bin (which track?)

Normally when a game is separated into tracks, the first track in the list is the game itself. It is on the first track that this patch needs to be applied.

As described on the download page, a dump from the Redump project was used as a reference for this patch.
You can test it on any other dump though, but there is no guarantee that it will work.

I'll be honest, I looked up redump for this game and I don't know what I would do with the information on the page that came up. Just lists the md5 of all the tracks and some header info.

The first thing I did was attempt to apply the patch to the first track but that ended up breaking the game so I figured rather than go through all of them, it'd be better to ask for clarification.

@Lirinica it looks to me like SFZ3 and this game do the same stuff in terms of world tour mode. I'd be happy to share the notes I have on Zero 3 if you wanna take a crack at it. People wish I had done more than translate the menus but I just dont have it in me to take on Zero 3.

Feel free to send me your notes and I'll take a look.
I'm currently studying Saturn's VDP1 and need some references.
