Free. That means it’s Complimentary. Gratis. On the House. You Don’t Pay for it. Not a single centavo. You just go to this site, click on some links, drag some files around, and then happily play your game. Sure, maybe you paid for that UMD as you should have, but you know, those dollars go to the people at store, to the delivery guy, to Capcom and its developers… nothing to the people who spent their precious time to slave over a patch in your language so that you can at least understand what you’re doing.

And we don’t ask for anything in return. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zero. This patch is free, has always been free, and Will Always Be Free. So don’t ask when we’re going to release again, or what’s gonna be in it, because we don’t bloody know.

I think I’ve made that point clear enough. =)

Anyway, the latest update it here. Get the full patcher program or just the language pack.

This minor update includes:

  • A significant chunk of the infobook is now in translated: Locations, Melee Weapons, Ranged Weapons, G-Rank Armors, and the new Felyne Whim Skills.
  • Felyne Elder completely translated.

The usual reminder to support original: http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-br4q-71-9f-49-en-15-monster+hunter-84-j-70-2f6y.html

  1. WOW! another update? You guys are on a roll!

    THANKS YOU TEAMHGG!!

  2. Verry good job. Thank you :)

  3. 2.6 already!!!!!!
    Yes the Felyne is Translated
    THANK YOU Teamhgg!!!!!

  4. Nice job.
    How can I make a laguage pack?
    I want to make a brazilian portuguese patch, but I don´t know how to start…
    Could you help me with some instruction or tips?
    If yes, please send me a e-mail.
    Thanks.

  5. Some event conversations(the people with the … on their head after u finish certain quests) are still not translated such as that retired hunter just past your house

    I don’t know if it’s a problem to everyone but when I go to continue my character sometimes doesnt show up on the file page but its that important because it does show up in the game

    Again thank u and i feel u when people asks for the release

  6. Same thing as the 2.5 patch: It says “Press the O botton” when you finish the media install.

  7. Because you really should press the O button after the media install.

  8. I appreciate all that you do, really. It’s great that you’re going through all this trouble for all us non-Japanese speaking hunters.

    What’s irking me, though, is that you’re saying you don’t want any money, but the play-asia link is an affiliation link tied to an account that receives 6% of each sale. It’s just something to think about.

  9. Wow this is, way too fast! Good job guys!

  10. @Adelaine

    I think what he meant is the spelling error of the word “botton” instead of “button”.

  11. I appreciate all that you do, really. It’s great that you’re going through all this trouble for all us non-Japanese speaking hunters. Keep up the good work.

  12. So sorry about that. I have change it already and it will reflect in the next release.

    nice job the long waiting is not a wast after all!!!!!

    great job to teamhgg

  14. hey, there is no patcher in my documents after I finish downloading it. need help…

  15. hey good work on the patch it really makes monster hunter easier for those who can’t read japanese. however for me the felyne elder is still in japanese and not english. does anyone have any idea on what i should do about this?

  16. I found a very interesting problem with this patch. The item descriptions after Volganos Thick Scale are off by one, as in, the Volganos Hvy Cpc has the same description as the Thick Scale, and all the items after have the description of the item before it, so the fin has the description of the Heavy Carapice, The Volganos Ticket has the description of the Fin +, etc. It keeps on going even to the gems. It doesn’t affect game play, though.

  17. @MechaGai

    Is fixed already. Redownload it again.

  18. YOU GREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT….
    I Love u guys….

  25. WOAH! thank you very much :) just finished drooling at v2.5 and you’ve released v2.6, thank you very much, thank you for all your efforts and hardwork :)

    Thank you again :)

  26. sorry but for some reason the patch dont seem to work for me. some of the things from 2.5 are still not in, like the kitchen, and the info magazine is pretty much still in japanese 100%, and for the felyne elder on the name of the location was translated. any instructions

  27. Thanks a lot guys! I can only read so much Japanese!

    I really appreciate it!

  28. @AngelArm: Thank you, we appreciate the offer, but we have decided long ago that we will never ask or accept donations.

    The fact that people are happy with our work is more than enough enough for us.

  29. Thanks a lot for all that hard work ^_^

    can’t wait for the next patch.

  38. Bug thx!!!

    But I’m want translate mh to my native lang, but how??? :(
    Help me plz, I have exp. translater, but for mobile games =)))

    Thx. Email me 3morpg@gmail.com

  39. Do I need custom firmware to use this?

  40. Thank you for the patch teamhgg although i can’t get the patch to show on my psp it has 3.71 custom firmware on it. Please reply by comment or on my e-mail: aalkandari40@hotmail.com

  41. Wow much quicker than i had antisipated, quality work guys…

    thanks for another free patch to make owning a psp a joy..

    I think your work is fantastic, no complaints from me here..

  42. Just wondering if sooner or later your team may be able to provide us with the tools to edit the game text? The reason why is because I want to change the name of the Felyne Chefs and Warriors. Much appreciated if you do release something. ;0

  43. Hm. I tried patching, and I get all the items in English, but in game menus and all the NPC’s are still in Japanese. =l I have no clue what’s going on. Any ideas?

  44. hi! i would like to raise some errors on description particularly on the treasure obtained on the guild card. it seems that the descriptions are offset by 1 item, please check :)

  45. Hello, i’m new to this game and i want help on patching the game. My mhp2nd g is in ISO format and then i patch it (press o after), then when i start a new game the game freezes. Any help please.

  46. Thank you guys from TeamHGG. I love your work, and it let us plain mortals to play this awesome game.

  47. @MechaGai: Affiliation link or no, you’ll pay the same price if you actually buy the game. For the record, that link has gotten six thousand hits, and…. exactly two sales. Something to think about.

    @Gunner: your ISO might be corrupted. Please dump your UMD again.

    @datkilab: We’ve fixed the item descriptions being off by one. Please re-download.

    @Kenn, turn off your media install.

    @ASN: check if you copied it to the right folder.
    PSP > GAME > PapimeruPSP2 > EBOOT.PBP

  48. There’s problems with a few of the descriptions,
    In the guild quests (not sure if its called that but its the ones in the gathering halls):

    -the maps have the description of “A glittering Gold Egg. Incredibly expensive and rare. No use to a hunter.”

    -the mini whetstones have the description of “A Guild BBQ spit for noice hunters.”

    -the first-aid med have the description of “A map that shows the topography of the region.”

    -rations have the description of “Medicine that restores a small amount of Health”

    Everything still works though, so its all good. Anyway, thanks for the translation patch you’re doing a great job!

  49. Actually nevermind, I had the old version XD.

  50. thanks! :)

  51. thanks you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    really 100 thank you’s

  52. There’s a 4 star quest in the Hunter’s Guild that is mis-translated. The Quest Objective says “Slay less that 2 Shogun Ceanataurs” when it should say “Slay at least 2 Shogun Ceanataurs”

  53. Hello.
    You guys are doing a great job!
    It almost complete!

    I notice that in weapon Maelstrom G (a light bowgun). It says Rapid Fire with Freeze S, but in the game that weapon has Rapid Fire with Water S.

    I don’t know if theres other error like this in the bowgun’s, but if I find another I’ll tell you.

    I can’t wait for the next patch!!

  54. i know this isnt up your guys’ alley, as you dont have any control over the dlc aspect of 2g, but does anyone have any idea what the quests are?? i managed to get that teostra quest for the priate j set XD but still, it is a bit difficult. so what i thought, is since you guys probably know what certain words look like in japanese, maybe you could release a kind of one to one correspondence image file, with like say for example, the word in japanese for “rathalos”, and then across from it of course, the english word for “rathalos”. just an idea though, by no means a request, you guyz already do so much for us, and i want you to know how much i appreciate it. thankyou <3

  55. AngelArm1110…you need to go to gamefaqs.com and look at their Board on Monster Hunter 2nd G and there is a post about the download quests

    as for 73N5H1 “Slay 2 or more Shogun Ceanataurs” sound better and this actually needs to be applied to the other quests that are like it…though its not really necessary

    Thanks Teamhgg

  56. and thanx for all what ur doing ur the best!!!!

  57. just noticed a typo. on the name of ghostly cicada, it says “ghostly cidada” :)

  58. @papajag

    I was more concerned with the meaning behind it rather than what sounds the best.

    There is a big difference between “slay less than 2″ and “slay at least 2/slay 2 or more”

    once again Great work teamHgg

    Half of us are from singapore.

  64. sorrrrry but i have a serious problem here. really appreciate it if you could help me with it.

    i have dled the patch and everything and it shows up successfully as well.

    when i run it, everything goes accordingly to plan and everything seems correct to me.

    i get brought to a screen that says: select your iso: (but nthing under this column, i carn select anything

    select your language: which i switched to english

    and “Patch”

    so after clicking patch, it takes less than 1 second and then it says patch complete.

    but when i run the game, it is still in Japanese.

    ARGH how? help appreciated!

  65. @ukiya,

    I think you are using CSO instead if ISO. Convert it to ISO with UMDGen.

  66. hey hotgamermum

    i got it done! thanks for all the help yea! =)

  67. dude thts so much for the work u are doin… rly appreciate it… but i rly hope u can get the felyne fighters translated in the next patch… not tht im rushing u or anything :P

  68. @maky369

    Do you mean the Felyne Figters Convos?

  69. ….sry for asking… it been quite awhile now.. for the update….. btw what is sword master skill for?

  70. @Wilson The Gamer

    You can check the armors skills and what it does here :

    http://skiesofcroda.com/wip/armorskills.php

  71. umm ye.. i do mean the convos…

  72. o wait also… does the patch have anything to do with treshi? i seem to be unable to take a quest from him. i have tried re patching and unpatching the gamee, to no avail T.T i do hav it in iso too

  73. You guys are the best! Really.. Totally appreciate the fact that you guys are so committed and doing this out of good will. I think people should learn to be more appreciative and grateful then to keep asking for more without a sense of the effort behind all of these. So, respect to you guys and keep up the good work! Cheers! :)

  74. Just want to enquire about this… but with 2G now confirmed for the West, will you lovely people still be continuing with this patch? I do hope you will as god knows when the Western release date of 2G is, but also because you’ve all done a fantastic job and it would be a shame if you stopped now when you’re so close to finishing.

    Thanks for all you’ve done!

  75. thanks… many thanks..

    i’m looking forward for more updates..

    nice job guys…

  76.

  77. For the Team. I have a question about if there is going to be further updates for the patch since I heard that the english version of MH2′nd G is coming out in 2009 Q2. Please keep the updates coming for us and god bless you for your hard work.

  78. The 3 star guild quest are wrongly translated. I selected a quest which told me to kill a buldrome but i had to kill rathlos and rathian instead.
    hope this problem would be solved

  79. @tntbombed

    Please tell me the quest title. So i can check it out. Thanks.

  80. @Giuseppe

    Felyne Fighters convos is the only thing we have not translated for the felyne fighters stuff.

    As for the tickets and the items, it is translated in our earlier versions. I think in our first release. If you are talking about the items and tickets desc. Yes, we have not translated all of them. It will be in our next release.

  87. hey every monster hunter lover out there pls help me!
    i download this patch put it in game folder of my psp
    but my prob is that if i go to my memory stick its corrupted!!!
    pls someone help me! really appreciated

  88. I’m having an issue.

    So I downloaded the file and I don’t get an ISO file, I get a couple of LGG files and a PBP file and a picture. Do I have to install ALL of the patches to get it to work??? >_< I really don’t get it.

    Plus, any time I follow the instructions online, it always comes up as just corrupted data on my PSP. Any help?

    Sorry I’m so inept.

  89. @Lenne

    Make an ISO out of it. Try rar-ing them then change the .rar into .iso?

  90. the file you download here is only a patch
    you ned to get the iso out of either your own UMD dumped to your harddrive then up to your memory card
    or you can dl an iso somewhere (if you own the game ^_^)
    ISO goes in the iso folder of your already CFW using psp
    the patch in the GAME folder
    run it from the psp from the mem card
    patch it
    delete the patch
    good hunting
    hope a new patch comes out soon lol its been 2 months
    hadnt ever taken this long to update *cries*

  91. You know the release of this game in America is so stupid. It’s really late and the date hasn’t even been announced yet. I will still get it because this game is the best game on PSP. Thank you teamhgg for making this game understandable for us.
