Translating a game - need a hand! (change font)

Posted 21 April 2016 - 10:51 AM

Heya all and sorry to bother!! :)/>
This seemed like the more relevant forum atm.


Short version:
I need to change the font from a 1998 visual-novel game, anyone knows how to do it?



Long Version:

I'm complete clueless to these programming stuff, so thought that asking around here wouldn't hurt, nearing the end of my wit at this =X

Translating a visual-novel game from English to Portuguese, it was originally Japanese and translated to English for a western release, it contains special characters that won't bother the English version, but showed up constantly in portuguese due to its punctuation.

Thus far I've been successful (using NTLEA) to run the game just fine in portuguese, however... NTLEA won't affect the font type, wich doesn't fit well.

Does anyone know if theres a simple way to change the font?

OR, if you can tell me wich language this is programmed on, I could try asking in the right forum to see if someone more skilled feels like advicing or taking a look.

The game is freeware/abandon as far as comercial rights go.


------------------

I did upload its files if anyone wants to check, its roughly 400 MB in total but much smaller without its data packages. (the *.DL1 files)

mod: link removed.

* SG - English.DL1 , if you want English text rename to SG.DL1 and replace the current one.
* You may need to run the game through ntleasWin.exe inside the NTLEA folder, it also contains an x64 and x86 executable inside respective folders.

Anyway, hope someone can shed some light and lend a few lines of help or advice with this!

Thanks for the time and kindness, a lot! =]

As it is - someone owns the IP rights to it and claiming abandonware doesn't discount. I am going to close the topic and ask you do not pursue it further here.

As always if you have questions on the rules feel free to shoot me a PM.
