So the promised tools from me are here:

http://www.wupload.com/file/2605715047/ ... -TOOLS.zip

It's based on scripts and templates for program 010 editor. For pack and unpack I used extarnal called compression algorithms from bms from aluigi (thanks). In folder "pc-text+font packer" is folder LANOIRE (path is defined in scripts - C:\LANOIRE) which is used for packing back text and fonts (for pc version with patch) (you need to insert there dlc big archives (all 9), out.wad.pc and cases.big.pc). To pack, the text must be edited in folders root and cases and dlc folders (dlc5,dlc6,dlc8) (.txt files, utf format) (fonts in out/fonts) and structure of it must be the same as it is unpacked by me (number of lines and also the new line character 0D0Ah must not be changed!). For pack you need to use scripts in the correct order (for root (gui) - 1 then 2) for cases (1-you can choose the cases texts you want to pack,2,3 (this will edit text in dlc archives - there are duplicit texts from cases and only dlc texts))

In folder "some tools" you will find some tools for unpacking the archives and templates for example to edit fonts. (unpackers are capable of extracting only some of the archives!) I will not include a guide for this one, sorry, it's up to you to understand it.

The tools are forbidden to use in another czech translation of this game!

I wrote a BIG repacker about three hours ago. And now I finished an alpha version of port of localization from PC to PS3 version. There are some bugs in menus but I hope I will fix them soon.

I also made a xbox repacker, but it's not tested in real I only compared the results with the original files and made unpack to be sure it works.

Use is the same as for pc version - put lanoire folder in the C:\ folder, add big.360 and wad.360 files in lanoire folder, edit text or fonts and then use scripts in correct order.

(for those that dont know how to use 010 editor scripts and some comments how to repack pc (xbox version)) :

When you open the archive, there is folder pc-text+font packer (xbox-pack), open it and inside is folder lanoire - put this folder in C:\ directory then inside this folder you will have folders cases and root, there are only english texts - replace them with translated ones and then go back to folder C:\lanoire\ (dont forget to insert here required big and wad files! (.pc or .360))
there are five scripts for program 010 editor - now you must to use script one for root-atb-importer and after it finishs close it and open script two root-wad-importer and apply it.

The same for cases scripts, there is only one difference, you can choose what txt files from folder C:\lanoire\cases\ will be used (less is faster) and after it finishes use script two for pack into big file (it will use external command line tool so it will be "flashing"). And then the last script 3 for dlc (only for pc).

(scripts are used without other opened support files)
Script can be used be clicking on the upper program bar where are the icons that are resembling pergamens - small paper like icons - on the right side of white ones is empty space for choosing the script - choose one you opened and then apply it by white one pergamen with green arrow and wait for finish (it will take about 1 to 5 minutes to finish) (it will write at the bottom of program script finished succesfuly)

Nice! Can't wait for the model/texture tools, too. Sure, translating things would be 'swell for those who need to play it in their own language, but it would be a lot better if we can do some enhancements or just plain fun to the game.

Yesterday I made a module that working with LZX compression algorithm and now I can deal with Xbox 360 archives. I will release my tools soon. They includes scripts to archive processing (BIG & WAD), ATB's text processing and texture processing. Besides, I plan to start working with 3D models.

Find the mod by using a Table or Smartphone, and connect it to your computer using VNC, so u can finish the mod and stay in bed,
