Intuitively, to adapt Oni for a non-English audience, one needs to translate: speech and subtitles; text strings (in-game text consoles, F1-menu pages, Options, Main menu, dialogs); a few textures.
To adapt Oni for a non-English audience, one needs to translate: speech and subtitles; in-game consoles, the Data Comlink pages (Objectives, Items, Weapons, Diary, Help), the dialogs (Main Menu, Options, Load Game), and a few textures.


In practice, the amount of translated data can fluctuate significantly depending on the target language and localization team, and the result is not always clean and straightforward.
However, the amount of translated data in a localization varies significantly depending on the target language and localization team, and the result is not always clean and straightforward. For example, there is the Japanese version where, unlike in the English version, '''level0_Final''' and '''level1_Final''' use two different takes of "Hi Konoko! It's me, Shinatama." This discovery is what prompted the investigation in the first place.
 
For example, there is the Japanese version where, unlike in the English version, '''level0_Final''' and '''level1_Final''' use two different takes of "Hi Konoko! It's me, Shinatama.".
 
Now, that particular anomaly is relatively minor, but it prompted an investigation that led to other peculiarities of the Japanese version, which seem worth documenting. So, here we are.


As a basis for the study, below is an overview of the English-language resources typically subject to localization, along with their "globalization" properties (i.e., the existence of duplicates in different levels).

These are "level definitions", i.e., all the locations identifying the chapters/missions in the Load Game dialog, except "Syndicate Warehouse" and "Save Point". (Those two strings are hardcoded into the engine, so that's where they were translated, either by the localizers performing a hex edit or by rebuilding the game after changing them in the source code. See {{SectionLink|Daodan DLL|Locales}} on how you can patch these strings at runtime.)

All the ONLDs are stored in '''level0_Final''', rather than in the respective level files of each chapter. Only 14 ONLDs correspond to actual levels present in the final Oni. 17 others correspond to [[Pre-beta content#Cut levels|pre-beta levels]], are not encountered in Vanilla Oni, and thus were not subjected to localization.

Although there is no need to translate the invisible WMM_s and WMDDs, localization teams typically translate at least some of them (possibly while toying around with the Tool build).
Although there is no need to translate the invisible WMM_s and WMDDs, localization teams typically translated a random subset of them, possibly due to looking at the game data from the resource side without realizing the text was unused outside of Tool mode.

The three instances of '''.MISSION FAILED''' and the thirteen instances of '''.MISSION COMPLETE''', as well as the title and subtitle lines of the fifteen '''intro splashscreens'''. All of these use the [[Xenotron]] typeface in the English Oni, which has (or originally had) no support of diacritics or non-Latin languages, hence localization teams typically picked their own more or less stylized font.

;Fun fact
;Fun fact
:When Konoko wakes up after a vivid nightmare in Chapter 11, her startled gasp (set up through OSBDkonoko_wakeup) is in fact an appropriately picked pain sound ('''konoko_hrt_md2'''), rather than a custom voice line recorded for the scene. This is easily overlooked by localization teams, who record Konoko's pain vocalizations in a somewhat generic way, possibly ending up with a not-too-fitting "wakeup grunt".

:"Ninjabots" are bundled with the full set of Ninja pain sounds, but use only a few of them (the ones that sounds least human). This is easily overlooked by localization teams, who can overdub Ninja pain vocalizations in a somewhat generic way, possibly ending up with ninjabots that sound "too human".
:Training bots are bundled with the full set of Ninja pain sounds, but use only a few of them (the ones that sound least human). This was easily overlooked by localization teams who recorded Ninja pain vocalizations in a somewhat generic way, possibly ending up with training bots that sound too human.
 
;Discrepancies across levels
:In general the pain sound duplicates are consistent across levels, just as for other sounds in English Oni. However, one of Muro's hurt sounds, namely '''SNDDmuro_hrt_md10.aif''' has a unique version in level19_Final (final fight), different from the main version occurring in level#_Final (#=2-4,6,9-10,13-14).


;General note
;General note
:Some categories have no pain sounds of their own (e.g. "thugs") and use those or other characters (e.g. Striker pain sounds). This sounds more or less OK in Oni, where care was taken to have the two characters voiced by the same or otherwise similar voice actor, but localization teams can overlook this, ending up with characters' pain sounds that are vastly different from their spoken vocalizations. Then again, many localization teams don't bother with pain sounds at all, and only translate actual speech.
:Some character classes have no pain sounds of their own and use those of other characters (e.g. Thugs using Striker pain sounds). This sounds more or less OK in Oni, where care was taken to have the two characters voiced by the same or a similar voice actor, but localization teams overlooked this, ending up with characters whose pain sounds are vastly different from their spoken vocalizations. Additionally, many localization teams didn't bother with pain sounds at all and only translated dialogue, so the same problem can occur for any character when you hear their localized dialogue and un-replaced pain sounds in close succession.


===NPC interaction===
===NPC interaction===
There is a pool of generic NPC vocalizations used for conversation start or interruption (either because of an enemy or if the player moves away) and to punctuate various gifts in short and non-level-specific ways ("Here, have a hypo!"). Those generic lines can be used not just by ordinary civilians but by scientists and "thugs"/engineers. More elaborated NPC interaction (with or without gifts), containing level-specific dialogue, is detailed [[#Secondady scenes|BELOW]].
There is a pool of generic NPC vocalizations used for conversation start as well as for interruptions (due to enemy attack or the player moving away) and to announce various gifts in short and non-story-specific ways ("Here, have a hypo!"). Those generic lines can be used not just by ordinary civilians but by scientists and Thugs (serving as warehouse workers or engineers). More elaborate NPC interactions (with or without gifts) containing level-specific dialogue are detailed under {{SectionLink||Secondary scenes}}.

This page is meant as an overview of the differences between a reference English version (file properties listed on the right) and other language versions. Likely not exhaustive, hopefully useful.

To adapt Oni for a non-English audience, one needs to translate: speech and subtitles; in-game consoles, the Data Comlink pages (Objectives, Items, Weapons, Diary, Help), the dialogs (Main Menu, Options, Load Game), and a few textures.

However, the amount of translated data in a localization varies significantly depending on the target language and localization team, and the result is not always clean and straightforward. For example, there is the Japanese version where, unlike in the English version, level0_Final and level1_Final use two different takes of "Hi Konoko! It's me, Shinatama." This discovery is what prompted the investigation in the first place.

As a basis for the study, below is an overview of the English-language resources typically subject to localization, along with their "globalization" properties (i.e., the existence of duplicates in different levels).

The actual localizations are detailed on separate subpages: Japanese.

User interface

After this first subsection about Oni's font, below is a list of all the textual resources subject to translation (stored either as ASCII or as two-byte characters in the case of Asian languages).

TSFFTahoma

The font family used by Oni's UI. The actual characters are in TSGA (glyph arrays, one per font).

For English, the basic ASCII character set is used:

!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~☐

For non-English versions, the ASCII set is extended to accommodate for European diacritics or Cyrillic.

TSFFTahoma is stored in level0_Final, with no duplicates anywhere.

ONLD

These are "level definitions", i.e., all the locations identifying the chapters/missions in the Load Game dialog, except "Syndicate Warehouse" and "Save Point". (Those two strings are hardcoded into the engine, so that's where they were translated, either by the localizers performing a hex edit or by rebuilding the game after changing them in the source code. See Daodan DLL § Locales on how you can patch these strings at runtime.)

All the ONLDs are stored in level0_Final, rather than in the respective level files of each chapter. Only 14 ONLDs correspond to actual levels present in the final Oni. 17 others correspond to pre-beta levels, are not encountered in Vanilla Oni, and thus were not subjected to localization.

TxtC

"Text consoles". Oni uses these for two things:

  • in the training level, for a semi-immersive recap of the controls;
  • in actual missions, for revealing more or less plot-relevant backstory elements.

All the TxtC reside in chapter files and have unique names (no duplicates).

SUBTmessages

These are ingame prompts appearing along the bottom of the screen (for SUBTsubtitles, see HERE).

They reside in level0_Final. Although some of them are never displayed by the game, a localization effort typically covers all of them.

Pause screen elements

The pause menu (a.k.a. "In-game UI", F1 key) is used to navigate and display all of the following:

  • OPge (level-specific objectives and hints to assist the player's progress)
  • IPge (in-universe descriptions of the 2 ammo types, the other 3 items, and LSIs)
  • WPge (descriptions of the 10 weapon types and hints on how to use them)
  • DPge (diary pages and descriptions of newly learned special moves)
  • HPge (an overview of the basic controls and default key bindings - visible under the Help tab of the F1 menu)
  • IGHH (overlay text that identifies all the elements of the ingame HUD - revealed simultaneously with the HPge)

The elements are organized in tabs and pages (tabs stacked on the left, page-switching buttons at the bottom).

Globalization-wise, the specifics are as follows.

  • HPgehelp_pg01 and IGHHhud_help_info are stored in level0_Final.
  • DPgelev_##_pg_## are stored in level0_Final only (similar to ONLDs).
  • OPgelevel#_* are stored per-chapter, with unique, non-conflicting names.
  • WPge (ten files, one per weapon) are stored in level0_Final.
  • IPge for all item types except LSIs are stored in level0_Final: that's IPgeammo_ballistic, IPgeammo_energy, IPgehypo, IPgeinvisibility and IPgeshield.

Level-specific items (LSIs) are stored in their respective levels

  • IPgedatapad is stored in level1_Final
  • IPgeharness is stored in level6_Final
  • IPgetorch is stored in level8_Final
  • IPgezip is stored in level12_Final
  • IPgekeys is stored in level19_Final

Bottom line: all of the pause menu elements are subject to localization, and none of them are duplicated across levels.

Menus and dialogs

All the UI interface elements (apart from some pause-screen pages) reside in level0_Final, stored as WMDD, WMM_ and WMMB. Some complementary WMDDs and WMM_s can be found in level0_Tools.

In the shipping version, only the following few menus and dialogs are visible:

  • WMDDdialog_mainmenu (ID 150), has "New Game", "Load Game", "Options" and "Quit" buttons (mid-game, "Options" is replaced with "Resume").
  • WMDDdialog_loadgame (ID 151), has a scrollable list of save points, a "Load" button and a "Cancel" button.
  • WMDDdialog_options (ID 152), says "Options", has "Quality:", "Resolution:" and "Gamma:" (under "Graphics"); "Overall Volume:" (under "Sound"); "Difficulty:", "Subtitles:" and "Invert Mouse:".
    • WMM_pm_difficulty (ID 10000, looked up by name), dropdown list of "Easy", "Normal" and "Hard".
  • WMDDdialog_QuitYesNo (ID 153), says "Are you sure you want to quit?", has "Yes" and "No" buttons.
  • WMDDdialog_NewGame (ID 154), says "Press Start to begin a new game.", has "Start" and "Cancel" buttons.
  • WMDDdialog_ChangeRestart (ID 156), says "You must restart Oni for the change to take affect." [sic!], has an "OK" button.
  • WMDDdialog_Progress (ID 155), says "Loading...", has a progress slider and no buttons.
  • WMDDpause_screen (ID 70), F1 menu. Has "Objective", "Items", "Weapons", "Diary" and "Help" buttons (tabs) as well as "Previous"/"Next" navigation and "Close".
  • WMDDdialog_text_console (ID 71), used for TxtC visualization, has "Next"/"Close" button.

The other entities, visible only from Tool mode (developer-oriented build), are as follows:

  • WMMBmenubar_oniwindow
    • WMM_menu_game
    • WMM_menu_settings
    • WMM_menu_object
    • WMM_menu_ai
    • WMM_menu_particle
    • WMM_menu_sound
    • WMM_menu_misc
  • WMDDdialog_message_box (ID 50)
  • WMDDdialog_gettext (ID 51)
  • WMDDdialog_string_list (ID 102)
  • WMDDdialog_get_mask (ID 103)
  • WMDDdialog_ll_progress (ID 130)
  • WMDDdialog_setup_player (ID 132), a dialog that lets you customize the player name and class. Likely multiplayer.
  • WMDDdialog_new_game (ID 133), a dialog that lets you pick a level for a "new game". Likely multiplayer.
  • WMM_menu_performance
  • WMM_menu_test
  • WMM_pm_components
  • WMM_pm_melee_techniques
  • WMM_pm_mod_types
  • WMM_pm_modifier
  • WMM_pm_neutral_anim
  • WMM_pm_particle_detail
  • WMM_pm_particle_displaytype
  • WMM_pm_particle_sprite_type
  • WMM_pm_priority
  • WMM_pm_soundtype
  • WMM_pm_test

Although there is no need to translate the invisible WMM_s and WMDDs, localization teams typically translated a random subset of them, possibly due to looking at the game data from the resource side without realizing the text was unused outside of Tool mode.

Rasterized text

Splashscreens

The title "Oɴi" (in the Main Menu) typically stayed as-is, except in the Russian version where the title was transliterated to the Cyrillic alphabet as "ОНИ"). Asian versions of the game typically leave it as "Oɴi".

The three instances of .MISSION FAILED and the thirteen instances of .MISSION COMPLETE, as well as the title and subtitle lines of the fifteen intro splashscreens. All of these use the Xenotron typeface in the English Oni, which has (or originally had) no support of diacritics or non-Latin languages, hence localization teams typically picked their own more or less stylized font.

Some splashscreens have text as part of the art: "POLICE LINE - DO NOT CROSS", "MAXIMUM SECURITY", "TRACKING SIGNAL LOST", "WANTED", also "REYES 10 mm" and of course "TCTF". Most if not all of this text typically stayed in English.

Four splashscreens reside in level0_Final, and they don't include any text besides "Oɴi™" and "BUNGIE®".

  • TXMBpict_mainmenu (TXMPOni_startup_#, #=0,1,2,3,4,5) - the Main Menu background
  • TXMBpict_options_background (TXMPoptions_#, #=0,1,2,3,4,5) - for the Options screen
  • TXMBpict_loadgame_background (TXMPoni_kanji_#, #=0,1,2,3,4,5) - for the Load Game screen
  • TXMBpict_splash_screen (TXMPsplashscreen_#, #=0,1,2,3,4,5) - for the main window in Tool mode (not visible in regular Oni)

The fifteen chapter-intro splashscreens (counting the training) and the fourteen end-of-chapter splashscreens (thirteen .MISSION COMPLETE screens and the end-of-game screen) reside in their respective chapters.

  • The .MISSION COMPLETE TXMBs are always named identically (TXMBwin_splash_screen), but with unique names for the referenced TXMP fragments: TXMPlevel$_win_#, #=0,1,2,3,4,5.
  • The chapter-intro TXMBs are typically named TXMBintro_splash_screen, referencing generically named fragments TXMPlevel$_intro_#, the only exception being the first level.
  • For level1_Final, the two TXMBs are named TXMBtraining_splash_screen and TXMBwarehouse_splash_screen; the fragments are named TXMPtraining_intro_# and TXMPwarehouse_intro_#, #=0,1,2,3,4,5.

The three .MISSION FAILED screens are duplicated across levels. The TXMB is always named TXMBfail_splash_screen, and the TXMP fragments are distributed as follows:

Bottom line:

  • None of the UI background splashscreens need translation (with the possible exception of the "Oɴi" title).
  • All of the level-resident splashscreens ("intro", "win" and "fail") need localization except the end-of-game one.
  • The only duplicates across levels are for the .MISSION FAILED splashscreen fragments, TXMPfail0$_#.

Textures

Fortunately there is relatively little rasterized text in in-game textures.

Not actually visible

A couple of "textual textures" are for developer use only:

  • TXMPnotfoundtex (never seen in-game unless a modder broke the texturing), in level0_Final
  • TXMPCOLLISION (used on collision boxes, invisible unless shown in Dev Mode), in every level.

TXMPPunch ("P"), TXMPKick ("K"), TXMPJump ("J") and TXMPCrouch ("C") in level0_Final, apparently for instructions on combat move execution (but not actually used).

Name-tagged portraits

Used in cutscenes to signify the current speaker, some of the portraits have the character's name stamped in them, to help with identification when encountering a new character.

The actually used name-tagged portraits are limited to Training and first two chapters:

  • TXMPSHINnametag and TXMPSHINnametagM (mirrored) are used in Training and Chapter 1, respectively.
  • TXMPKONnametag/nametagM, TXMPGRIFnametag/nametagM and TXMPKERRnametagM are used in Chapter 1.
  • TXMPBOSS1nametag (Barabas) and TXMPMUROnametag (Muro) are used in Chapter 2.

All fly-in portrait TXMPs (whether name-tagged or not) reside in level0_Final and are available through scripts in all of Oni.

Spoken lines overview

c00_01_##shinatama

The distribution of ## between levels is as follows:

  • 01-16 in level1_Final (training: praise and encouragement)
  • 17-29 in level0_Final (generic objective prompts)
  • 29-57 and 59-97 in level1_Final (training and "trial run")
  • 98-99 in level3_Final
  • 100-103 in level18_Final (Zombie Shinatama's vocalizations)
  • 104 in level4_Final
  • 105 in level8_Final
  • 106-108, 113-115 and 117 in level2_Final (Deadly Brain fight)
N.B.
c00_01_29shinatama occurs both in level0 and level1.
N.B.
The "c00_01_##"s are Shinatama's "solo" lines that do not fit into a dialogue sequence and are more like unilateral prompts that Konoko receives via her comlink. For everything else, including most of zombie Shinatama's monologue, see § Scripted dialogue.
N.B.
All of the c00_01_##shinatama SNDDs are referenced from a dedicated OSBD (i.e., with only one SNDD in the OSGr): although it would have made sense to group some of the generic objective prompts (e.g., "New compass data.", "New compass target.", "Incoming compass data." and "New compass data for you Konoko."), the dedicated OSBDs means that every SNDD is invoked explicitly (from scripts), with no random variations.
N.B.
All of the c00_01_##shinatama SNDDs/OSBDs have corresponding subtitles, except the core of the training sequence: 35-57 and 59-90.

Vocalizations

There are seven recurrent types of "vocalization" in Oni:

  • taunt a.k.a. c17_99_## ("Now I strike!", "You're going down!", "Show me what you got!", etc.)
  • alert a.k.a. c18_69_## (uttered by AI after hearing a suspicious sound)
  • startle a.k.a. c18_70_## (uttered by AI after visual contact with an enemy)
  • checkbody a.k.a. c18_73_## (uttered by AI after defeating an enemy)
  • pursue a.k.a. c18_74_## (uttered by AI while in search for an invisible enemy)
  • cower a.k.a. c18_75_## (uttered by "non-combatant" AI: more or less articulate whimpering)
  • "super" a.k.a. c18_79_## (special melee types: super_kick, super_punch, super3 and super4)

Of these only taunt and the "super" types are available to the player; the others are used by AI only.

Boss characters (Barabas, Mukade, Muro) typically do not have vocalizations other than taunt and "super".

Some characters (Griffin, Shinatama, female cops), have no vocalizations at all (besides the pain sounds).

Two more vocalization types seem to have existed at some point, but are deprecated now.

  • c18_71_07red ("She's a masochist!", Fury)
  • c18_71_24madbomb ("He's a masochist!", Mad Bomber)
  • c18_72_18madbomb ("Happy to die?", Mad Bomber)

The two "masochist" SNDDs are not referenced by OSBD at all, whereas "Happy to die?" is referenced by OSBDc18_72_18madbomb, which in turn is referenced by the "checkbody" slot of ONCCmad_bomber. This is at the expense of SNDDc18_73_09madbomb ("Damn, that was quick!"), referenced by OSBDc18_73_09madbomb but with no link from the ONCC.


Pain sounds

There are four degrees of pain in Oni: "light", "medium", "heavy", and "death". All four are voice-acted in the original Oni, and are typically localized in other language versions (though not always thoroughly).

Fun fact
When Konoko wakes up after a vivid nightmare in Chapter 11, her startled gasp (set up through OSBDkonoko_wakeup) is in fact an appropriately picked pain sound (konoko_hrt_md2), rather than a custom voice line recorded for the scene. This was easily overlooked by localization teams who recorded Konoko's pain vocalizations in a somewhat generic way, possibly ending up with a not-too-fitting "wakeup grunt".
Fun fact too
Training bots are bundled with the full set of Ninja pain sounds, but use only a few of them (the ones that sound least human). This was easily overlooked by localization teams who recorded Ninja pain vocalizations in a somewhat generic way, possibly ending up with training bots that sound too human.
Discrepancies across levels
In general the pain sound duplicates are consistent across levels, just as for other sounds in English Oni. However, one of Muro's hurt sounds, namely SNDDmuro_hrt_md10.aif has a unique version in level19_Final (final fight), different from the main version occurring in level#_Final (#=2-4,6,9-10,13-14).
General note
Some character classes have no pain sounds of their own and use those of other characters (e.g. Thugs using Striker pain sounds). This sounds more or less OK in Oni, where care was taken to have the two characters voiced by the same or a similar voice actor, but localization teams overlooked this, ending up with characters whose pain sounds are vastly different from their spoken vocalizations. Additionally, many localization teams didn't bother with pain sounds at all and only translated dialogue, so the same problem can occur for any character when you hear their localized dialogue and un-replaced pain sounds in close succession.

NPC interaction

There is a pool of generic NPC vocalizations used for conversation start as well as for interruptions (due to enemy attack or the player moving away) and to announce various gifts in short and non-story-specific ways ("Here, have a hypo!"). Those generic lines can be used not just by ordinary civilians but by scientists and Thugs (serving as warehouse workers or engineers). More elaborate NPC interactions (with or without gifts) containing level-specific dialogue are detailed under § Secondary scenes.

Generic interaction (with no gifts) come in 3 groups:

c16_89_04civmale1, c16_89_05civmale2, c16_89_06civmale3
c16_89_16civmale1, c16_89_17civfem2, c16_89_18civfem3
greeting
c16_89_01civmale1, c16_89_02civmale2, c16_89_03civmale3
c16_89_12civmale1, c16_89_13civfem2, c16_89_14civfem3
interruption; reaction to approaching enemy
c16_89_08civmale1, c16_89_09civmale2, c16_89_10civmale3
c16_89_20civmale1, c16_89_21civfem2, c16_89_22civfem3
interruption; reaction to player moving away

Gift vocalizations are as follows:

c16_91_01civfem
c16_91_02civfem
c16_91_09civ1
c16_91_14civ2
c16_91_33civ2 (actually "civ1" voice actor)
c16_91_25civ3
c16_91_29civ3
giving a hypo (or, in the case of c16_91_09civ1, several hypos)
c16_91_03civfem
c16_91_04civfem
c16_91_10civ1
c16_91_15civ2
c16_91_26civ3
c16_91_30civ3
giving an ammo clip (or, in the case of c16_91_10civ1, several clips)
(non-specific, used interchangeably for ballistic ammo and energy cells)
c16_91_05civfem
c16_91_06civfem
c16_91_12civ1
c16_91_20civ2
c16_91_21civ2
c16_91_22civ2
c16_91_27civ3
c16_91_31civ3
giving a weapon (or, in the case of c16_91_12civ1, several weapons)
c16_91_08civfem
c16_91_11civ1
c16_91_17civ2
c16_91_18civ2
c16_91_19civ2
c16_91_28civ3
c16_91_32civ3
giving a force field

All these vocalizations are duplicated across all the levels where civilians are present or available.

Access Denied

SNDDconsole_locked.aif is played whenever you try to access a locked console: "Access Denied" said in a robotic female voice. This line is typically translated by localization teams.

Scripted dialogue

This is dialogue that supposedly happens only once in Oni's story. Thus the below blocks typically occur in only one level, although a few exceptions exist for "secondary scenes" (NPCs).

Duplicated conversation sounds

SNDDc00_26_18civfem1.aif
("Hi Konoko! It's me, Shinatama")
Duplicated in level0_Final and level1_Final.
SNDDc04_17_08thug.aif
("I'm glad to see you. I hid back here as soon as the shooting started. Maybe these will help you.")
Duplicated in level4_Final and level6_Final, actually set up (in NEUT) and used in level6_Final.
SNDDc07_26_18civfem1.aif
("I told them we'd just make things worse if we tried to use these guns. You should be the one using this!")
Apart from level8_Final where it belongs, it is available in every level except Rooftops (level12_Final).
Found (through OSBDcivfem_gift_weapon) in some generic NEUTs that are available in all levels.
SNDDc08_29_20konoko.aif
(Konoko saying "Are you all right?")
Originally from a conversation with an engineer in CHAPTER 07 . A FRIEND IN NEED (two conversations, actually), it is also used for a female cop in CHAPTER 06 . COUNTERATTACK.

Special mention for two whole conversations that ended up in the wrong level.

All of the below are found both in level10_Final (where they belong) and level11_Final. Additionally, c09_34_06sci1 is found only in level11_Final, although it would belong in level10_Final.
SNDDc09_34_01sci1.aif

SNDDc09_34_09scientist.aif
("Probably the maintenance route for the main line above, but it isn't easy.")

Missing sounds

Sounds that are referenced either in OSBD or hinted at through subtitles, but cannot be found in Vanilla Oni. For example, there once was a Striker saying "Huh?" somewhere in CHAPTER 08 . AN INNOCENT LIFE, and in the same chapter Griffin said "I knew it was only a matter of time. It's over.".

Orphan sounds

Sounds that exist but either are not referenced (via OSBD) from scripts or other resources, or do not have an OSBD at all. Examples:

Iron demon
The seven Iron Demon sounds (id_leg_# and id_r_hit_#) are not referenced from OSBD. Not really relevant to localization, though ^_^
"(S)he's a masochist!"
c18_71_07red ("She's a masochist!", Fury) and c18_71_24madbomb ("He's a masochist!", Mad Bomber)
"All clear. Come on in."
c03_12_01konoko – something Konoko was supposed to say after "securing the foyer" in CHAPTER 03 . PUZZLE PIECES.

Subtitles

All of Oni's subtitles (transcriptions of spoken lines) are found in SUBTsubtitles, located in level0_Final. The vast majority of speech lines have corresponding subtitles and vice versa. Exceptions are detailed below.

Missing subtitles

Here are a few examples of speech lines that do not have subtitles (those these exceptions have exceptions of their own in the PlayStation 2 version, which adds in some of the missing subtitles).

The training sequence
There are no subtitles for c00_01_##shinatama with ## ranging from 35 through 57 and from 59 through 90 (the 58 sound no longer exists anywhere in Oni's data). The missing subtitles (55 in total) cover the whole training sequence, including Karen's training and Shinatama's elaboration on Konoko's "data comlink". Only Shinatama's greeting and final praise have subtitles, as well as "But before we begin, you'd better warm-up." and some generic short praises from the 00_01_1# range.

Orphan subtitles

Some subtitles appear to be left over from early development, as the OSBDs and SNDDs are missing now. Here are some examples:

  • "Konoko: Why! Why are you doing this! Stop it! Stop!" (09_31_20, probably meant for the Shinatama farewell scene in CHAPTER 08 . AN INNOCENT LIFE)
  • "Striker: Huh?" (08_29_31, fits into the numbering of minor NPC encounters of CHAPTER 08 . AN INNOCENT LIFE, but was perhaps just a misplaced vocalization)
  • "Konoko: That was close but I'm clear. That access hatch leads to the surface." (09_32_01, apparently from an early version of the CHAPTER 08 . AN INNOCENT LIFE outro)
  • "Security Guard: No you fool! We're not secured for atmosphere..." (09_32_02, apparently from an early version of the CHAPTER 08 . AN INNOCENT LIFE outro; intriguing...)
  • "Griffin: I knew it was only a matter of time. It's over." (09_33_08, apparently an early variant for the CHAPTER 08 . AN INNOCENT LIFE outro, in which Konoko's rogue status wouldn't have been stated until the next chapter)
  • "Konoko: What are you doing?" (13_65_06, fits into the conversation with Kerr in the scanner room, but probably deemed unnecessary)
  • "Kerr: (while jumping in front of Konoko to take bullet) Wait! Noooo......" (13_65_40, from the end of the scanner room conversation, probably removed for being cliché)
  • Konoko's outro speech (removed from the game data, so it can only be heard in the anime sequence)
