Awesome, glad to see someone else taking this up. Per the other thread, I got to the point where I had most item, ability and class names converted. There is a decent FAQ on gamefaqs (http://www.gamefaqs.com/ngpc/197773-dens...faqs/60281) with those translations.
The biggest hurdle is text spacing. I haven't been able to figure out how to replace the text output code yet. I will take another look given what judge posted in the other thread. One graphics hack that I tried was replacing each character in the graphics with common 2 letter combinations, but that got ugly: there's just not enough room to contain everything.
Edit:
Here are some screenshots of what I mean. I ended up not liking the way I did things here. What's really needed is a code modification to change where it pulls the text from.
