❖ HOW TO PATCH THE GAME - ENCRYPTED - (PSN/NONPDRM/PHYSICAL CARTRIDGE):

With the release of the

RePatch plugin

, the English translation patch is now compatible with legitimate PSN downloads, NoNpDRM "rips" and physical copies of the game. This works with the vanilla game as well as the DLC.

REPATCH MUST BE INSTALLED TO USE THIS METHOD!

OBTAINING AND PATCHING "DATA_RELASE.L7C"

Open VitaShell (> v1.7) and navigate to "ux0:/app/PCSG00551" "gr0:/app/" for cart owners

Locate "data_release.l7c" in the app directory

Copy the "data_release.l7c" file to your computer (via USB or FTP) Verify the data_release.l7c matches the MD5 hash provided below! WinRAR, 7Zip and HashTab can all do this.

Rename it to "original_data_release.l7c"

Download the L7C patch from below and extract it into it's own folder

Move/copy the "original_data_release.l7c" file into the extracted patch folder

Use the appropriate patch executable for your operating system to obtain the patched "data_release.l7c" file Windows 7/8/10 - apply_patch_windows.bat MacOS - apply_patch_mac.command Linux - apply_patch_linux.sh

Verify that your resulting file has the correct MD5 checksum compared to the list below

Connect to your Vita either via FTP or USB. Create a new folder under "ux0:/repatch/" and name it "PCSG00551"

Once you have the patched "data_release.l7c" file transfer it to "ux0:/repatch/PCSG00551" (you will need to create this folder first)

For NoNpDRM users, it is safe to delete the original unpatched "data_release.l7c" file from your Vita (in ux0:/app/PCSG00551) either via VitaShell or your FTP client after copying over the patched file. You don't have to delete this file, it just saves space if you do. Holding onto the original file on your PC not only recommended but required for further updates. Physical cart owners cannot (and should not anyways) delete the original file from the cartridge.

Exit VitaShell

Boot into Taiko V and the files game should load in english, with all of your pre-existing saved data in-tact! The first screen you will see is one stating that the game has an autosave feature. So long as you are seeing this screen, it is working!

v1.0 - First release; Full menu translation. All settings translated.

v1.01 - L7C hotfix

v1.20 Beta - Second official release with lots of incompleteness. Dropped support for the VPK version of the game. NoNpDRM recommended! Full (unedited) translation of all menus and modes. Story Mode, Stamps and Equipment still a WIP.

v1.20 Final - Removed some incompleteness. Stamps and Quest Titles/Descriptions removed. Font run-off still a known issue.

v1.20 Hotfix - Some users were reporting getting stuck at a black screen on v1.20 Final. Apply hotfix to the already patched data_release.l7c file and transfer it back over.

v1.20 Fixed 04-08-19 - Re-did patch to accept the encrypted, original version of the data_release.l7c file as it is, without any decryption. This should help with MD5 mismatches. Download this if you have the PSN, NPS or Physical version of the game! Click to expand...
