First you need an UNTOUCHED ISO of Hatsune Miku - Project Diva. If you have ever modified the ISO, compressed it to a CSO, ripped the padding, or ripped the update folder then this patch probably won’t work. Also it is recommended that you don't patch over an older release. Only apply the patch to a fresh Japanese ISO. Also, make sure that you back up your ISO before applying the patch.<br /> <br />The following steps correspond to the pictures of the same number in the "applying the patch" folder included with the download.

The greatest way to help out with this patch is to play the game. I know that there are a few instances of Japanese that I haven't translated, but I couldn't find where they appear in game, if at all (they could be remnants from the game's beta). If you spot any untranslated text, mistakes, glitches, or have any suggestions, please leave a comment on the [http://projectdiva.wikispaces.com/message/list/Translation+Patch Discussion Page], or on the [http://www.projectdiva.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1036 project's thread].<br /> <br />In the sdk file, I have included tools and files that I think may be helpful in translating the game into another language. If you need any assistance with this, please feel free to contact me, (FShadow) on ProjectDIVA.net.

This patch is practically complete. The only things left to be translated are the credits and the Visual Library.

Tools Required

The game's main menu with the translation patch applied

Doing this hack was surprisingly easy. These are the tools that I used for those of you who are curious.

  • PRX Decrypt - Decrypts EBOOT.BIN.
  • MadEdit - THE best Hex Editor that supports Shift-Jis Japanese.
  • CD Mage Beta - Best for re-inserting files back into the ISO without screwing up the LBAs.
  • AFSExplorer - Extracts the giant AFS files that can be found in the ISO.
  • Gimp and Paint.NET - For all your image editing needs, and they're FREE.
  • pngnq, PNGoo - Converts 32bit PNGs into 8bit+alpha. All the PNGs in the game are in this rare format.
  • PPF-O-Matic 3 - For creating and applying PPF patches.

Installation

First you need an UNTOUCHED ISO of Hatsune Miku - Project Diva. If you have ever modified the ISO, compressed it to a CSO, ripped the padding, or ripped the update folder then this patch probably won’t work. Also it is recommended that you don't patch over an older release. Only apply the patch to a fresh Japanese ISO. Also, make sure that you back up your ISO before applying the patch.

The following steps correspond to the pictures of the same number in the "applying the patch" folder included with the download. I apologize if some of the things covered in this short tutorial are painfully obvious to you, but I want to make sure that everyone, regardless of their technical knowledge will be able to play this patch. Thanks for bearing with me! Now, let's get started!

1. Download the PD1st_PatchvX.X.zip archive, with X.X representing the version number.
PD_Patch_Tutorial_1.png
2. Extract the contents of the archive to wherever you want. Simply right click the .zip file, and select Extract All.
PD_Patch_Tutorial_2.png

3. The contents of the archive should now be extracted. Open the folder and you should find several files.
PD_Patch_Tutorial_3.png
4. Open up ppf-o-matic3.exe
PD_Patch_Tutorial_4.png
5. You should come to a screen similar to what is shown in the picture. Click on the little floppy disk icon to the right of "ISO File"
PD_Patch_Tutorial_5.png
6. Navigate to wherever you've saved your Project DIVA ISO, and double click it.
PD_Patch_Tutorial_6.png
7. Your screen should look similar to the picture. Now, click on the floppy disk icon next to where it says "Patch".
PD_Patch_Tutorial_7.png
8. Navigate to where you saved the patch. It should be in the same folder as ppf-o-matic, and shouold be named "Project Diva - X.X Patch.ppf", with X.X again representing the patch version. Double click the patch.
PD_Patch_Tutorial_8.png
9. Some text should appear in the ppf-o-matic window. It's not really important for our purposes what it says, so just click on "Apply".
PD_Patch_Tutorial_9.png
10. After a few seconds, a window should appear telling you that you've successfully applied the ppf patch. Close this window.
PD_Patch_Tutorial_10.png

11. Now, for the easier part of the installing the patch. In the same folder as ppf-o-matic, there should be a folder called divapatch. Connect your PSP to your computer and navigate to ms0:/SEPLUGINS/. If this directory doesn't exist, create it. Copy the divapatch folder and its contents to the SEPLUGINS folder.
NOTE: "ms0:/" simply refers to whatever letter drive your PSP is assigned to when it's connected to your computer. In my case, it is I:/, but it may be different for you.

PD_Patch_Tutorial_11.png
12. In your GAME.TXT file in the SEPLUGINS folder, add the line "ms0:/seplugins/divapatch/divapatch.prx 1", without the quotes. If you do not have a GAME.TXT, create one. Make sure you save the changes you make.
If you use decrypted dlc then use nploader instead of nodrm. Also make sure that nploader.prx is listed before divapatch.prx.PD_Patch_Tutorial_12.png
13. For the final step, all you need to do is copy your patched ISO from step 10 to ms0:/ISO/. If you don't have an ISO folder, create one.

After it's done copying, you can now boot up your PSP and start playing Project DIVA in English!

Helping Out/Translating Into Another Language

The greatest way to help out with this patch is to play the game. I know that there are a few instances of Japanese that I haven't translated, but I couldn't find where they appear in game, if at all (they could be remnants from the game's beta). If you spot any untranslated text, mistakes, glitches, or have any suggestions, please leave a comment on the Discussion Page, or on the project's thread.

In the sdk file, I have included tools and files that I think may be helpful in translating the game into another language. If you need any assistance with this, please feel free to contact me, (FShadow) on ProjectDIVA.net.

Outro

This patch is practically complete. The only things left to be translated are the credits and the Visual Library. After v1.0 is released, I will be working on porting the entire patch to divapatch, with an optional ISO patch for the XMB images (icon0.png, pic1.png), and releasing a no lyrics patch.

Unfortunately, the romaji patch has been discontinued since v0.5, as the game has a 40 character limit for song lyrics, which makes romaji lyrics nearly impossible, and they end up SquishedTogetherLikeThis, and sometimes even cut off. This makes the game look extremely unprofessional, which is the opposite of what I'm going for. However, if there is enough demand for it, I may reconsider.

Work on translating the DLC has already begun. Visit my photobucket to see a few screenshots. If anybody wants to help out with the translation for it, please leave a comment on the Discussion Page, or on the project's thread.

Got any comments or questions? Feel free to post on the Discussion Page.
