[REQUEST] Tool to edit .mes-files of DQM J3 (Nintendo 3DS)

Hey Guys,

today I checked the files of Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 3 for the Nintendo 3DS.

I'm able to edit the scripts completely (uncompiled squirrel scripts) but I want to translate it together with some friends of mine.

So I checked the .mes-files of the game. This files are... simple... They should be easy to edit.
Editing the files with a Hex-Editor is kinda annoying because I've to add/remove bytes + Modify all pointers after edit.
I really need a tool which is able to edit this files and which modifies the pointers directly while editing the text.

I've uploaded a few of this .mes files.

Hopefully someone could help by providing a simple editor.

Thank you!


Here's a example file where I found the pointers for every string:

Editing Files works great with this tool (translating text + modify pointers)! :D
Thank you a lot!

Will try the modified files ingame when I'm able to.

@WRS would it be possible to add a "Search"-Function to this tool?
A Function to ADD new strings would be awesome, too!
I'm able to edit the scripts completely so I'm able to add new stuff to the game.
Editable Scripts, yey!

Would be awesome!


BTW, here are some translation tests :)
