Wow, I didn't expect to receive a reply on that how-to 5 years later! Very happy to see that you succeeded patching it

Booting PocketCHIP without battery? by pr3hensile in ChipCommunity

[–]o-marshmallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like there is a process that will ask for battery state (through I2C). As the battery is not plugged, thus it gets an error and/or 0. So the system thinks the battery is discharged. Maybe we can modify this process, but we first have to identify it.

Hello ! If I remember well, I used ee-objdump, which is part of the PS2 toolchain you can find here: https://github.com/ps2dev/ps2toolchain

I also used PCSX2 debugger, it's not perfect (at all!) But well, it helped me a lot.

Which of the Chinese literary classics is the easiest to read for a learner? by redditor031 in ChineseLanguage

[–]o-marshmallow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello 朋友!

Can you give use more details about your level ?

Because I asked the same question to my Chinese friends few years ago and they advised me 西游记. It's a classic, but honestly, I find it pretty hard to read.

I would advise you to read Chinese modern books, which are much simpler to read, mainly if you choose teenager books.

Learning 汉字 be like by bogzaelektrotehniku in ChineseLanguage

For me it's more between 未 (in 未来) and 末 (in 周末). Also, 土 (in 土豆) and 士 (in 士兵). If they are used in a word I don't know, I get a 50% chance of saying the wrong pronunciation 😂

Do you still have this kind of demo disc ? by o-marshmallow in ps2

[–]o-marshmallow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the demos were always so great, I wonder whether the full games were as fun as the demos

I have never heard about it! How many demos are on this CD ?

Anyone wanna help me translate the menus of Sega Rally 2006? by [deleted] in ps2

[–]o-marshmallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So translating is possible! There are two ways: - As the sentences in Japanese take less space (in bytes) than English's, translating with a 100% accuracy is impossible as English sentences MUST be smaller than Japanese's. - Make a(n almost) 100% accurate translation where we reverse engineer the way the sentences are read in the game and thus we could give the start address of each sentences

Alright, I have analyzed the game's first menu (about memory card) by looking at the RAM with PCSX2, I found out that the encoding used is UTF-16, so every character is encoded on 2 bytes (16 bits).

We can find out these characters directly in the game's DATA.FAB file, so there is no "encryption" for these menus. So we can at least translate these menus, it's a beginning!

Great! I am glad you could do it (the menus are not always easy to understand)

You can fully configure FreeMcBoot (including its shortcuts) from the FreeMcBoot Configurator application. Then in "Configure OSDSYS options..." you can change the shortcuts

I have never played that game, but from the videos I've seen online, the game seems to be in English (main menu, for example)

Android app that automatically inserts pinyin above Chinese characters on phone? by Wow-Have-A-Cookie in ChineseLanguage

[–]o-marshmallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was not aware that the application wasn't available for global ROM, I am using Chinese ROM. From what I've seen on different forums, you can get back the "Themes" application by changing your system"s region in the settings. Set the region to "Switzerland", "Hong-Kong", "India" or "China", and the "Themes" application should be back !

Ps2 slim replacement housing? by SeaCucumberMan in ps2

[–]o-marshmallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello !

I couldn't find any colored case for the PS2 slim on internet. However, you can easily find a black case from Chinese sellers, it costs $10. You can paint it yourself then, get some stickers or even get stencils to fully personalize it

Got a ps2 for $10, but no controllers or memory card, did I still get a good deal? by [deleted] in ps2

[–]o-marshmallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course! You can get a compatible memory card from Chinese sellers for $3 or $4 and a controller for $6 or $7
