So the game that I plan to translate is Metal Max 2 which is a really old game developed in 1996 (maybe? I don't remember) and it's ALREADY been semi-translated from Japanese to Chinese. Since I can speak both Chinese and English I plan to translate this game in order to make the others able to play this game without any linguistic barriers. However, I REALLY don't know where to start since this is the VERY FIRST time for me to do this. I've read through some posts on romhacking.net but found nothing helpful. I have some C++ and Python programming skills (if that will become useful), and I know how to use WinHex to deal with those addresses stuff. Anyone can help me with that? Thanks in advance!
