A toolkit to disassemble and reassemble Mega Man Legends PSX files for translation purposes. Implemented so far:

• Disassembly and Reassembly of BIN files
• Extraction/Insertion of FONT.DAT and KAIFONT.DAT to TIM
• Extraction/Insertion of MSG files to TXT
• Extraction/Insertion of text inside EXE file
• Extraction/Insertion of MML TIM to regular TIM (4bpp and 8bpp)

TODO:

• Reallocation of text in EXE file (expansion)
• Cleanup the code and optimize it (a lot)
• Error checking, especially on MSG files

DashEditor.py [option] [file or folder]
  -e   extracts che content of BIN file.
  -i   inserts an extracted folder to BIN file.

1. Use CDMage 1.02.1 B5 to extract the contents of the ISO to a folder.
2. Put the software in the \CDDATA\ folder.
3. Either run the software with the -e option or use the batch file to extract everything at once.

1. Move (or delete) the *.BIN files inside the \CDDATA\DAT\ folder.
2. Either run the software with the -i option or use the batch file to insert everything at once.
3. Use CDMage 1.02.1 B5 to replace the BIN files inside the \CDDATA\DAT\ folder.

The software works by extracting the content of BIN files inside the CDDATA\DAT\ folder to a folder with the same name. Once the BIN is extracted you will find the original files and some decoded files as follows:

• TIM: There are a few types. If you see a TIM terminated with _EXT.TIM you should be able to use an editor like Tim2view to export the image to PNG for editing. Once edited, the PNGs can be re-imported directly onto the _EXT.TIM files. (Pay attetion to the used palettes)
• MSG: These contain most of the game's text. These will be extracted to TXT format. You can edit these freely by respecting the spacing, ending characters and special characters.

• KAIFONT.DAT Width table: Inside ROCK_MAN.EXE at offset 0x7B67C to 0x7B700 (This needs testing)
• ROCK_MAN.EXE text limit is 7044 bytes (for now)
