RPGツクール4 (a.k.a. RPG Maker 4) Translation Guide v1.1 By: DaRkEpYoN (zeromus220@hotmail.com) Japanese text viewer required to use this document. Of course you can still read it, but the Japanese text will appear as letter garble. And what good is it to you then? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Revision History 2. Introduction/legal junk 3.

Revision History v1.1 2/24/02 - Initial release --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Introduction/legal junk I wrote this to help drum up interest in this game among importers like myself. I also wrote it for those of us who are struggling to make out heads or tails of what's what in this game. This game is part of the Tsukuru series in Japan. There were 2 Super Famicom games, which never saw the light of day here in the US. A third one was released on the PlayStation in 1997, and was brought here to the States as RPG Maker. Then there's this game, which also never made it to the USA. >_< There are also PC versions, which let you import graphics, and let you use a keyboard for entering text. There are also various other "tsukuru" games out there such as a 3D fighting game maker for PlayStation, better known as Fighter Maker in the US. There are also 2D fighting game makers in Japanese for the PC. There's also a strategy game maker, and yes even a love sim maker *gasp* for the PC. Yes, that's right... Make your own Tokimeki Memorial. This kind of thing might do quite well here in the States. And since this is a family site, I'm not even gonna mention why. ^_^; If you want to post this on any website, be my guest, but don't change anything without telling me. Also, don't EVER try to make money off of this. It's just like walking up to me and spitting in my face, so don't do it. Enough of that icky legal mumbo-jumbo. Now, let's begin, shall we? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.1 Main Menu 魔法 - Magic 必殺技 - Special Moves アイテム - Item 職業 - Job 主人公 - Main Characters 主人公パーティー - Main Character Party モンスター - Monster モンスターユニット - Monster Unit - This is how you place your newly created monsters into battle. マップ - Map - The creation of the world your characters will be traveling is done here. モンスターの配置 - Monster Appearance - Yep, you guessed it. All thie random battles are handled here :-) タイトル - Title システム環境設定 - System Settings - This is where you can put names in the credits for parts of the system data. You can also set a password to get to your data, in case little Timmy fires your RPG4 CD and destroys in 2 seconds what took you 50+ hours to create. >_< But if you've been working on something, and feel it absolutely sucks, you can delete all the system data in here as well. シナリオ環境設定 - Pretty much the same as above. Again, all your painstakingly created events are safe from little Timmy's curious thumbs. サンプルロード - Sample Load - Replaces everything with the stuff from the built-in sample game, Rappin' Magic. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.2 - 特殊コマンド - Special Commands - If you've played the FF games, you should have an idea how some of these work. :-) But, I'm going to assume you haven't done so, and do my best to describe them. 盗む - Steal - Steals from an enemy. You can set up what items are stolen in the monster editor. 吸収 - Absorb - Steals HP. ガード - Guard - Protects allies 蘇生 - Revive - Self-explanatory 全体攻撃 Attack All - Again, self-explanatory ぶんどる - Mug - Works like the above steal, but also does damage. :-) セルフリカバー - Self Recover - another one that doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out. :-p This would work on a non-magic using char like a robot. ものまね - Mime - Repeats the last action done by another character. 銭投げ - Coin Toss - Uses money to deal damage. It doesn't show the actual coin hitting the enemy though :-( 治癒 - Healing - I guess this would also work for non-magic using characters. 連続魔法 - Continuous Magic - This will allow you to cast 2 spells in one turn :-)) 敵の魔法 - Enemy Magic - Learn certain spells that only the enemy can use. ゲット - Get - Captures a monster if its HP is low enough. リリース - Release - Works in conjunction with the above Get command. Calls forth the captured enemy to perform a single attack. There are more, but these are the ones that I could make any sense out of. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.3 - 職業キャパシティー Job Capacity - These are abilities you can set to a character. 戦闘中HP回復 Recover HP in battle 二刀流 Weapon in each hand.
