This is a fully translated English patch for MegaMan Battle Network Operate Star Force.

The goal of this project was to translate the new content such as the Star Force crossover scenario, the new chips, and Star Colosseum, while also porting text from US MegaMan Battle Network 1. Another goal was to fix typos and inconsistencies the original text had with later releases.

Features

All text and graphics are in English for Battle Network and Star Colo (Download play client copy of Star Colo will still be in Japanese).
Script changes and fixes made in the Japanese version of the game are ported to the English script.
Many typos and mistranslations in the original BN1 script are fixed.
Original BN1 translation edited to be more consistent with later BN games.
Additional localization on various maps.
Minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.

Notes on emulators

A late-game crash occurs when trying to enter the Secret Station in No$gba and DeSmuME with external BIOS images disabled.

As a temporary workaround, you can use the following Action Replay DS code:

::Fix Secret Station emulator crash
521A7380 797968BF
121A737E 00007969
021A7380 DA04290D
D2000000 00000000

Note: Use other Action Replay cheats at your own risk; certain cheats such as "All BattleChips 99x" can cause your story progress data to become corrupted, and the game will get stuck in an endless loop of NumberMan battles in the final scenario. If this happens to you you'll have to start the game over.
