PSX Silent Hill 1 Translation & boot

[mattcobalta]

Hi
I project to translate PSX game Silent Hill into french, i currently work with ePSXe, a cue/bin ROM image of the game and Hexecute as search/replace hexa tool.
No pb with menu translation :


but I can't find string for variable text like item's one (Handgun received...)

It can be crypted, compressed or memory text

Another problem, there are 4 files in the .bin :
- SYSTEM.CNF
- SLUS_007.07
- SILENT
- HILL

I currently do direct text replacement into the .bin file, it works fine but I would like to edit only the SILENT file which contains the text. I have tried to edit the file then rebuild the ROM with CD_DVD-ROM Generator 1.50 and iml2isov1.2 but I can't make the iso to run with ePSXe, black screen on boot, I must forget something.
Need your help

Perhaps it's better to check a site such as http://romhacking.deadbeat-inc.com

Perhaps PSX CD-Gen helps you, specially with IsoBuster tree listing.

Big thanks to habgard for the tool.
The only way to rebuild the ROM is PSX CD-Gen , iml file + iml2iso or psx2hd + stripiso + buildcd doesn't work with my image.
