@folly That is great work, good investigation tips there! Must have been satisfying.
I've got a .HDS of Die Bhanwelt on X68000, a bootable HD. I wonder if that can be tinkered with in the same way.

I don't have the .HDS, so I can't try.
I have .dim and made a .m3u.
Game looks nice :
-
@folly I played that one. It's a good candidate for translation on the fly as it's pretty fun and seems light on story.
-
@zering Ok. Will play that a little bit more.
@AdamBeGood If you want to tinker then you have to use
Human 68k, it's like DOS. -

Human 68k, it's like DOS.Cool, I found a translation patch but it doesn't work on my disks, or any others I can find.
Then I found a .HDS, already patched. But no joy with that.. yet.

Translation looks good.
-
@folly Oh excellent. Is that a pre-patched .dim set?

Oh come on! That took you about five minutes! Did it work on your disks? Gaaaah

Surely not... I would have found it, I'd like to think.
-
@adambegood Then I'm equally curious. How does one patch .dim files?

No patched version. You said it yourself.

@folly There is a translation available though.
That screen had me fooled. I thought it was a patch. -

That screen had me fooled. I thought it was a patch.Then we have search for that one.

That screen had me fooled. I thought it was a patch.Totally tricked me! I see it now.
I did try with the disk patch, from nfggames and romhacking. Neither worked for me. The bootable .hds wasn't too hard to find either, but also yielded no joy.
-
@adambegood If it's on romhackinh there must be some sort of instructions or readme. Any idea where it went wrong for you?
-
I have it working with that translated HD image.
I can add the solution, to this thread, later on.Do you both want the solution ?
-
@folly I'd definitely be interested.

Seconded! I'd love to know.

EDIT:
Altough this solution works, I found a much better way !
Keep reading in the next post ;-)Well, I have think of my reputation. ^^
I use these files (md5sum) :
aa58b4d5ec37caba33da19587292a5a1 BWHDD.hdf
a53067ef706c7adb06143e141f3da47a HUMAN302.XDFHere it is (hope it works for both of you):
- only boot HUMAN302.XDF (exit the emulator, next time it will start with human68k)
- now boot with the .hdf (you boot also into human68k (dos))
- there are more drives (A: , B: , C:)
- goto the C: partition (press C=>C ,=>: and enter)(keyboard issue)
- then do this command => ed BW.BAT
- Change A: into C:
- save the file => press "escape" , press "e" (if all goes well, you come back to the prompt)
- then do this command => BW
- next time type => C: "enter" => bw "enter"
I could almost read Japanese. HaHa
