Hacking help

[Atikal]

I'm new to hacking and extracting scripts, and I was wondering if I could get some help? Often times, I will be able to extract scripts but it will look like this

Where do I go after this?

Well it can be that the data is saved in some weird encoding. The two major ones for vns are UTF8 and shift-jis, this site may be to your help if you want to test encodings. For me that text looks like misinterpreted encoding.

 

I'd recommend opening the file in a hex-editor to identify the text encoding.

It may not even be only text to be extracted, but mixed with lots of other bytes that are not relevant.
