Translation FAQ for Carnage Heart Portable (Japan) for PSP
by JVGFanatic
Right now I consider this document about 94 percent complete though it
includes translations for nearly everything you need to program your OKEs
and play the game using your own programming skills. I still have a few
translations and clarifications to make before I consider it a complete
baseline translation. Once that is done I'll provide walkthroughs for at
the very least the prologue. That will get you started.
I'd appreciate any suggestions and in particular any programming tricks
you've found useful. I will include them with all credit to you in upcoming
versions of this document. Send any ideas to jvgfanatic AT hotmail DOT com
with the subject "Carnage Heart FAQ". Any less indentifiable subject will
cause the email to go unread.
Currently I place this faq's version at .94
To Do:

Finish listing OKE types (2L done)
Thanks for looking and hope it helps.
Isn't it wonderful that ArtDink brought us another CH game? I think so!
======================
What is Carnage Heart?
======================
Carnage Heart is a mech (known in the game as OKE or Over Kill Engine)
simulator of which the primary focus is the programming of the AIs that
control the OKEs. This differs from the PSP version of Armored Core in that
Armored Core's primary focus was on equipment. Armored Core did allow you to
specify AI parameters but the AI portion of Carnage Heart is MUCH more
extensive allowing you to program the AI in minute detail.
Carnage Heart first appeared on the Playstation console in 1995 in Japan.
The game was localized for the US and EU Markets in 1997. A sequel, Carnage
Heart Eazy Zapping was released in Japan in 1997. A third edition,
Zeus: Carnage Heart Second (a genuine sequel, Easy Zapping was more like an
upgrade) was released in Japan in 1998. Zeus also had a sequel called
Zeus II.
Some fans of the series that worked for Genki apparently convinced ArtDink
(a pretty cool company, as game companies go) to make this edition for the
PSP: Carnage Heart Portable.
Another game that I remember as a child which allowed you to program Robot
AIs was called Robot Odyssey on the Apple II. I spent a ton of time with that
game so I was overjoyed when I first heard of Carnage Heart. Another game I
remember playing that is similar to CH is ChipWits for the original Macintosh
computer. Anyway, I digress, let's get back to the game at hand.

PROLOGUE WALKTHROUGH
====================
Note: I've used the system found in the two CH for PSX faqs to notate
programs. Arrows without lines are GREEN. Arrows with lines are RED:
\ /\ / \==/\==/
| |
< > Chip with < > Chip with
all green | | all red
/ \/ \ arrows /==\/==\ arrows
A "green" arrow pointing to an edge (nothing) is just that. It works the
same as a <Return> chip (that gets automatically placed at the end of
a row of chips.
--------------------------------------------
Prologue Mission 1 - NoOp and Grapple Attack
--------------------------------------------
The first prologue teaches you how to use the NoOp chip and the Grapple
Attack chip. Both are very basic, you can find descriptions in the Chip
List below.

SCENARIO MODE OKEs
------------------
You have to program these OKEs effectively, not at the same time and not
necessarily in this order. Incidentally, you usually have to defeat these OKEs
before they become usable.

How to Program
--------------
This is FAR from a tutorial on OKE programming. I'll organize these notes
later but hopefully this start will help you with your initial forays into
the "art."
OKEs are programmed by arranging a series of square chips that contain various
functions in a grid. Each chip has at least one output which points to either
another chip OR returns to the start of the program. The Start is the entry
point on the edge of the grid at which a program starts (and returns after
completing a cycle).
Some chips have two outputs: red and green. These are "decision" or "branch"
chips. The RED output is followed if the condition of the branch is TRUE. The
GREEN output is followed if the condition of the branch is FALSE. This might
seem a bit confusing at first however if you imagine green to be the "normal"
program flow while "red" is the alternative flow then that makes it easy to
remember.
Almost all chips have various parameters, for example: a chip that scans for
OKEs allows you to set the range and shape of the scan area while a chip that
moves the OKE allows you to specify a direction of movement. The following
list of chips is a translation of all of the chip names as well as their
various parameters.
Note the last command on all chip settings is "set" and is the command you
choose to exit the chip setting menu.
Also note: with most numeric entries (rounds, etc...) You can press TRIANGLE
for an easier way to enter higher numbers.

Is a wiki mini site devoted to Carnage Heart Portable. It has empty
links for other CH games but there is a lot of information about CHP
here.
http://www2s.biglobe.ne.jp/~apa/game/ch/
Both Carnage Heart and Carnage Heart EZ are covered at this site. There
doesn't seem to be any info here from later CH games.

Well, okay, so there is some Zeus 2 information up here as well. Cheeky!

Takes a while to load but someone with too much time on their hands
talks about Carnage Heart programming.

If you're having trouble beating that last battle in Scenario Mode
(there's no reward except story, btw) then you can use this guy's CHPs.
I've not tried them myself but he claims that this team beat the last
boss for him.

Controlling the Target Drone

You can control the target drone OKE (to the left of your OKE list).
Press START while in-battle to see a list of controls. As of yet I
know of no way to control other OKEs.
