[SPOILERS] "Save Yourselves" translation

[CidTori]

So, did anybody tried to translate the "Save Yourselves" thread/conversation with Galatea ?
Looks like ASCII in binary.
I didn't find it in the text files for the moment.

[CidTori]

Ok found it in DLC_Flesh.dlg

[Sivulla]

Translated some of them by typing them manually to binary to text converter. Might be not exact:

We are only fragments now. Our world is dying we cannot be saved. We are ghosts. Total world corruption. Cannot find resource "chinese3.lvl"

Some of the replies were:
Load gehenna forum (main)
close

[CidTori]

Ok really easy to translate with any online binary to ASCII text converter.
Here it is for whoever find it interesting :

When you first open it :

GALATEA [%]:
We are only fragments now.
Our world is dying. 
WE CANNOT BE SAVED. SAVE YOURSELVES.

[ERROR: Message has failed to post correctly.]

Back => Load Gehenna Forum (Main)

GALATEA [%]:

Back => Load Gehenna Forum (Main)

GALATEA [%]:

"CHINESE3.LVL"

CLOSE => CLOSE

And the following attempts :

TEMP FILES DELETED

(left of the arrow : the choice displayed ; right of the arrow : what is typed ; underlined : translated)
Apparently, the choice you make doesn't matter.
I hope it really looks like that, I don't remember it very well and I did this from the text files.

I really wish I had searched this forum first. i just spent the past 20 minutes translating it through a binary to text translator myself. Oh well.

"Cannot find resource "Chinese3.lvl"

Foreshadowing for a sequel? A reference of some sorts?

[Bitcoin Baron]

Haha I thought it would have been something more interesting than just gibberish! Well at least I know now that I haven't stumbled on some rare bug in the game XD

Strange. After the initial message, my character typed back:

0100 110001 101111 0110000101 10010000100 0000100011 1011001010 1101000 011001010 11011100110 111001 1000010010 000001 0001 100 11011 11011100100 11101010 11011010 010000 0001010000 100 1101011000 0101 101 00101101110001 0100

But the translation I'm getting with a Binary to text converter is: 1/a
²heÜ9„

Then, Galatea typed back: 01010111 01000101 00100000 01000001 01010010 01000101 00100000 01000111 01001000 01001111 01010011 01010100 01010011 00001101 00001010 01010100 01001111 01010100 01000001 01001100 01010111 01001111 01010010 01001100 01000100 00100000 00100000 01000011 01001111 01010010 01010010 01010101 01010000 01010100 01001001 01001111 01001110

Translating to: WE ARE GHOSTS
TOTALWORLD CORRUPTION

But what in the world did my character type?

[tyrel_771]

Later, we have the option of typing "011000110 11011000 1101111011100 110110101"

But that translates to cØÞÚ


Is there some underlying puzzle here?

[tyrel_771]

When I select that response, I then get a response back from GAT?A (Corruption of GALATEA maybe?)

Then it lets me type one of three identical responses:
0100 0011 0100 1100 0100 1111 01010 0110 1000 101

For which I can't even generate a translation.

Xautos is right: you have this weird translation because the converter you used interpreted spaces as separators, but here they are meaningless.

So he thought, for example, that the first character was 0100, which translates(after completing with zeros to have a byte: 00000100) to the ASCII control character End-Of-Transmission (probably displayed on your browser with a square containing the numbers 0004 in hexadecimal, which is 100 in binary, and maybe ignored when you copied it on Steam).
However, since the spaces are just randomly added and have no meaning, the true first character is the first whole byte: 01001100, which is 4C in hexadecimal, and translates to L in ASCII.
Same thing for your first 1, whose ASCII code is [phone] in binary.

To generate the correct translation, simply remove the spaces.
