What you are doing wrong is when you are translating it....you are adding extra characters that the file cannot handle due to it being a binary file. That is a problem with hex editing. You can only replace text with the exact same number of characters or else it changes the file size that is encoded in the file itself and causes the game to crash when loading it.

Game translation is no easy task due to this...but hopefully at some point we will have the ability to decode teh subtitle files and encode custom ones. As of now there is no other way around this limitation.

Hope that helps.

Could you not just swap the file names around?

You are correct.

The only way to convert the game into a language not already available as a option in the game is to decode and rewrite by hand all of the subtitles files.

The game menus can be converted over but while it is a somewhat easier task...this will give at least a partial translation of the game.

Once all of my current projects are out of the way, I can look into this for anyone that wishes Bully to be translated into their preferred language.
