Hi guys,

Some days ago I read about a mod that allows you to play with japanese audio / english text.
That in itself is awesome but we were given already patched executables. The problem with these is that some modder needs to provide new executables every time this game is updated (not that i think this'll happen too frequently ;) ).

That's why I wrote a generic patcher that applies the mod to your existing executables. This will also allow you to use this mod in combination with other mods that use modified executables.

You can grab it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8lzxdgdj3r8diso/FFX_X2%20HD%20Language%20Patch.exe?dl=0

If you don't trust me (and why should you?), you can also get the source code here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/vb4ia8ej8rpvpqm/FFX_X2%20HD%20Language%20Patch.cpp?dl=0
There is SOME commentary on why I do what I do, but since this patch is something I hacked together quickly, there's not too much :P

How to use:

1.) Start it
2.) Select your FFX/X-2 HD Remastered game directory
3.) Press Ok
4.) Done

If not already present, the patcher will create backups of your original game executables.
E.g.: FFX.exe -> FFX.en.exe


Recap on how the mod itself works:
The mod itself only consists of modified path strings inside the executable(s) (the .rdata section to be more exact). You basically look for anything that matches "/US/", look for an equivalent "/JP/" path and replace the "/US/" path with the "/JP/" path. Please note that simple search&replace will not work.


I hope this helps at least some of you guys.
If you run into any issues because of this patch, please let me know.


Have fun
