^Further offtopic, I found out why John's translation often has Japanese popping out from underneath it. The reason is the Japanese is baked into the resource section of the exe. I guess just as part of the bitmap. So it's not hard to take out and erase the Japanese from the bitmap. Only thing is there would be no text there when the Japanese normally pops up. I think the text was baked into the bitmap as a hack around this behavior. So you could I guess take a screenshot of the translated interface, and replace the bitmap with that. Same deal. Someone should bring this to John's attention. I think it definitely be worthwhile for his project.
I also successfully changed the VMware trimmings to black. Unfortunately it's not as easy to change the lettering to white, because most of it uses a notation like = 0x0 for black which leaves no room for anything else
EDITED: Also there is a lot of Japanese still in the buttons. John needs to (John you need to) download something like Resedit and take a look at the exe files. I'll have to PM you or some shit if you don't reply to this!!
