Looking for a Reverse Engineerer (or something like that)

All right I want to hack the PSX Game "Digimon World".

For that purpose I need someone who can figure out some things.
All right I got the table for Dialogues so Text hacking itself wouldn't be an issue.
What I can't do is making the texts be longer than original which in some cases would be really useful.
But also I want to be able to edit Models and Graphics.

What I want from you:

I need a GUI based tool that can: make you edit dialogues (longer pointers), Open the 3D Models (they are stored in a format called MMD which is somehow based on TMD), Open up the MAPS (Format seems to be TFS here) and export and import everything+editing. Basically so you can do a lot of funny things in the game and make evil hacks like the Pokemon hacks. Yeah that's what I basically want but for this very PSX Game.


Payment: depending on success and the functions provided up to 50$. If you can get everything I want even 100$.

Answer in this thread if you feel capable I can provide materials you need just say what you will need.

Best Regards,
Romsstar

100 dollars for all that mess? Forget it.

I don't really think money would be the issue but I'm pretty sure you say that Gemini because you aren't capable of doing even one of that tasks but it's way easier to turn it down by saying not enough money haha.

A. You pretty much can't get anyone to do hacking for you for cash.

B. Gemini has completed several translation hacks, is working on others, and even has a homebrew game in the making. He knows what he's talking about.

Why don't you do it your self?

Doesn't  this board tell you if someone has posted while you're writing a response?

I know that Gemini has the basic skills when it comes to PSX hacking but this is something of an higher level and I think that he knows  how hard it is and not the money but the task itself (which is not easy) is scaring him away.

And I.S.T what's your point? As long as no one is doing the exact same thing by coincidence I'm screwed no matter how much I offer? lol

He's probably gonna have to, now that he's insulted Gemini.

Rule of thumb: romhackers don't work for pay. Either we don't accept money for what we do on ethical grounds, or the people who offer to pay are generally clueless about what they're asking us for.

Ryusui: Would that make a difference in first place? I lurked around this board a lot and I notice the tons of threads with 1-2 replies because nobody even cares to help.
Of course I don't have the skills to do what I'm asking otherwhise I would do it myself.

The thing I'm asking for is a program, not you to hack a Rom there's where the difference comes in when we talk about the ethnical ground.

And where do you see the insult?

Try again.

It was actually an appropriate response to his reaction. No insult at all.
If he was saying "could do it but for 500" that would show he's a professional all right.
But by this way of responding his credibility at least for me went down to 0.

I find this thread oddly amusing.

Carry on

Funny enough this thread has got already more responses than half of this board's threads only because the factor money is in.
Talking about ethical grounds.lol

$50 or even $100 really IS incredibly low for the amount of work you're asking. You're looking for a program, with a GUI, that can do a whole bunch of different, pretty complicated things. It'd probably take a lot longer, but let's say conservatively that it'd take someone 100 hours (a couple hours a day for a month) to put all that together. 100 hours of work for $50 comes to 50 cents an hour. Would you work a job for only 50 cents an hour? That's why Gemini says it's way too low for the amount of work. Honestly, for projects this complicated, actual companies would probably pay tens of thousands.

Gemini happens to be like THE Playstation hacking guy, BTW. Hell, besides his excellent PSX translations and homebrew stuff, I've even seen him port Super NES games to native PSX code. Trust him, he knows what he's talking about.

Assuming this isn't a clever troll, of course

You are absolutely right.  Do you have a facebook page where we could hang out together?
