    I've looked into this before aswell, I know most of whatl I need to to be able to translate the game, apart from Japanese I know the location of the text in the rom, the values of all the japanese text and all the japanese titles and things that would need translating. But as I dont know Japanese, or anyone who does I cant really do much on it!

    Perhaps inserting the GC script may work if the games are more or less the same (bit like what's going on with Tactics Ogre for SNES, an insertion of the PSX script)... still would need a native Japanese speaker though for the differences and a helleva lot of testing.

    I've played around with the GC script, it's formatted the same and all that stuff but I've no idea if its layed out the same or not, copying and pasting works to a degree but you've gotta line thing up so that when the game goes to read a various piece of script it finds the data it needs and not half way through a sentence or something.

    And the GC version has a few more features and stuff but it'll be useful for such a project anyways. A GC emulator which supports it would be useful because then I could hack around with the GC version and work out how that does things too Wont be quite as confusing with some more results in English rather than Japanese

    I'm interested, I've worked out basically everything needed to translate it, apart from a few things which could come in useful anyways. Japanese being one of them!

    I'm not terribly sure how friendly the game would be to translation, it's easy enough to put English or whatever in there, but getting the game to understand it with the internal stuff like letter writing, etc.. could be fun! The challenges are what make things fun though I guess

    A website really isnt necessary at this stage, though never really hurts I guess, as long as false claims and stuff arent made Coz I have no idea how far I could take a project like this, Animal Forest is a huge game script wise.

    I still need to figure out how to find pointers in the rom, so I can redirect the script and things like that in order to be able to fit the various dialog's in without having to abreviate various words, etc. Umm need to find where the text for some menu's are stored, but apart from that I have all the formatting and stuff down, and its easy enough to track down various bits of the script bit-by-bit.

    Edit:

    I have a few ways of tracking down someone with knowledge of Japanese to help out, I just havent had a chance to try before. I'll get around to it soonish there's no hope of them helping unless I give some evidence that I can hack the game, so I'll get some screenies or a video together.

    alrighty, my email address is jo_jones88@yahoo.com (yim jo_jones88)
    let me know if you need any help. my knowledge of hacking roms is well, i have no knowledge, but am trying to learn. but this proj will test my web skillz.
    ive made several posts in other forums for help on the project, just lettin you know. so if the workload gets too big there will be someone else to take the load off.

    sorry about the website thing. got too greedy. i have a knack for building at the moment , i dont know. ill wait till you can see if it can be done or not.....or whatever.

    dont work too hard,
    out

    ***EDIT***
