This is an english fan-translation project for IDOLMASTER SHINY COLORS: Song For Prism. It accomplishes this by modifying the localization file and Unity assets, aided additionally with dll hijacking through scsp-localify.

Guides for install and use can be found below.

This is based on the DMM version of the game and should work on linux and mac too, with some limitations.

Setting up / Getting started

Requirements (get these first!)

1. A PC DMM version of IDOLMASTER SHINY COLORS: Song For Prism
   

   • Here's a guide to creating a japanese DMM account.
   • And here's a recommended free VPN to use if you're playing from a region blocked country. Other VPNs should work too as long as they could connect to japan, but from what I've tested, psiphon3 is probabyl the best free VPN out there right now.

2. A latest copy of version.dll from scsp-localify.
   Here's an english guide made by the creator themselves if you need a more in-depth details

3. The latest version of the scsp_localify folder and the scsp-config.json file from this github repository

Install

1. Copy the version.dll file to your song for prism instalation folder which should be at: C:\Users\YOUR_NAME\SONGforPRISM

Update

1. Download update.bat file into your computer and save it anywhere you want.

2. Optional

   Change the "target_dir=C:\Users%USERNAME%\SONGforPRISM" line in the .bat file if you have the game installed somewhere else in your computer. But it should be fine to leave as is if you got the game installed in the regular directory.

3. Double-click the app and let the thing do it's job.

4. Your translation patch should be updated once it's done.

Update your translation patch periodically to keep the translation files up-to-date.
