Hi, after I spent some time figuring out how the binJ file format storing messages in this game works, I created [https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-binj-editor-a-tool-for-translating-dragon-quest-monsters-games.573053/ BinJ Editor], an editor for .binJ and .e files with custom decoding tables. This is the main tool required for translating the game. This thread and the linked repository is the place where everyone (including YOU) can help to translate this game, not only to english, but german, spanish, french, italian, etc. I would love to see a fully translated version in a few months (or years) with a lot of contributors.

In order to contribute to this project you need a 3DS with CFW, the translation data from the linked repository, a few programs and basic knowledge of Git and GitHub. I tried my best to make this project as accessible as possible, provided all the tools required and documented every single step.
To get started read the following instructions: [https://github.com/Ich73/DQM2-FanTranslation/wiki/Developing-Translations Developing Translations]
 
Some addional notes if you want to contribute. Make sure to read the instructions first in order to understand them.

<span>Spoiler: <span class="SpoilerTitle">Notes for Developers</span></span>
<div class="SpoilerTarget bbCodeSpoilerText">
 
The following Google Sheet contains multiple lists to keep the names in translations consistent: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B1bly-klTCxKn92dyBKBEFzVvqcYISQ3HhdI6iGVeTc/edit#gid=233093406?usp=sharing DQM2 Fan Translation List]
 
* We are limited to a fixed amount of characters for the names of keys: ≤31 in total (first, second and third part plus key and level) works well, 32 has a display error, ≥33 freezes or crashes
** EN splits this into: 9 (first part) + 1 (space) + 8 (second part) + 1 (space) + 8 (third part) + 1 (space) + 3 (key) = 31
* The game does weird things with the width of some texts, therefore you may have to include extra whitespace.
** Status of a monster: &quot;AGIL&quot; → &quot;A�G�I�L&quot;
** Status of a monster: &quot;WIS&quot; → &quot;W�I�S&quot;
* Location names on the bottom right of the map get way to large text boxes. It gets worse the longer the name gets. Therefore you should prefer short names over precise names, e.g. &quot;Terrace 1F&quot; vs. &quot;Terrace on 1st Floor&quot;.
* For texts on .bclim images inside .arc archives I used the Font &quot;Carlito Bold&quot;.
