Any Brigandine (PSX) fans?

[Hellborn]

Hello! ‎  I am glad to see that another fan is working on Brigandine. The TIMs you posted look nice. You did a good job of matching the font styles in the menu TIM.

If you want to translate the game menus into Russian, you will probably have to edit pointers. I have some TXT documents that show some pointer locations, but they are not complete yet.

You asked about narrow letters like "I": the font in STAY.BIN is 8x12 per letter, but I injected a process that checks which letter is being drawn, and moves the boxes closer together if needed. Since the box is invisible except for the letter, it doesn't matter if the 8x12 boxes overlap.

The standard Russian text system uses 2 bytes per letter, correct? The first thing you need to decide is will you be using a 2 bytes per letter encoding, or a system that uses 1 byte per letter.

Another note, the main menu TIM uses 48 different pallets (CLUTs) and the one you posted is using pallete #1. If you need to revise anything in your TIM, it might be easier to use other palletes. Like pallete #5 that shows the ingame color for the menu labels. ‎ 

Thank you for a relatively quick response! As for the menu, and other pictures that I posted, I have the source code in Photoshop (I can offer these same pictures in English if you want). Each first processed image tore palette used in the image. Then quietly edited the images using layers and other tools at the end of the work carried out with the use of indexing color palette to tear out earlier and brought the finishing touches. All ingenious and simple!
By the way, there is a very easy program to work with Tim directly in the working disk image "without opening" of it - called timviewp.
As for my question:
1st way that came to my mind - is to change the memory pointers to characters using Unicode Russian layout (would look very readable with subsequent transfer using this method. Moreover, unknown to what bugs it will). But as you have corrected Russian characters occupy more bytes.
2nd way - it's just to score the alphabet and use single-byte pointers to characters from it (though this method takes some of the difficulties with a large translation), using the table of matches.
Now lay out the picture of my idea ... If there are alternatives to correct me. Here's a picture showing the idea of ​​the second method:

numbers labeled to be added to the missing characters from the Russian alphabet (up to 14 characters in, but 8 in full will be enough to cover 7 small and 1 large, given the Russian lexicon for a decent translation of this should be enough)
ps I am sorry for bad english
