I don't know how much demand there is for this, but I see translation threads every now and then. I'd be willing to team up with someone to make a translation patch, though there would be a few caveats, enumerated below.

1. I can't do ASM at all -- so if you want to team up, I hope you can handle everything and are okay with me just translating.

2. I'd prefer to translate a game I'd be interested in playing at some point. I'm interested in RPGs, platformers, and shoot 'em ups.

3. I'm not going to be able to translate everything in a night... it'll take some time.

Other than that, I'm pretty much open for ideas/suggestions/offers, if there's any need. Sorry if this thread doesn't exactly belong here.

Edit: If you want to get ahold of me in a less-public method, I wouldn't suggest PM, since I don't actually log in/check PMs that often. The best ways to get ahold of me would be via AIM (same as this username), and also e-mail (again, same username, but @gmail.com).

Random suggestion: Shounen Ninja Sasuke is a nice little game (SNES 2P ninja action/reflection game) that hasn't been translated yet, if you don't know about it, you might want to check if you like it...

I just sent you an e-mail with a request about translating F-Zero Climax.

Looking forward to hearing your reply.

I'd have to say no. It's easier for me to translate to English than the other way around; I'd probably end up saying some things a bit oddly.

Alright, sent you an email with a number of prospects.

Monday night I'll be driving out to Detroit for a few days, so I won't be around much next week. If any of the things I've mentioned tickle your fancy, do please let me know before then so I can get you on your feet and running with any logistical questions out of the way by then

Srothroc, would you be interested in doing the pilot or machine profiles in F-Zero Climax? (I've already done half of the story, but if you really want to do that, that would be fine too.) FZC is a lot of fun and really deserves to be translated.

I posted a few more story chapters at MFO for the first time in a while. Hopefully I can pick up the pace this month; fewer school and family obligations now that 2006 is over!

RadioShadow contacted me about this -- I wasn't sure about it, since I hadn't heard from you and you were the translator. If one of you e-mails me the raw text, I can translate the machine/pilot profiles. If there are any special requirements, please let me know in the e-mail.

Dating sims don't sound bad, but I can't stand anything related to Chobits... sorry. >.>

Srothroc, I don't have a text dump for that game; I've been using the old-fashioned method of getting all 51 story panels honestly and the just looking at the screen and typing. On MFO some people have created prefect save files, which leads me to think that there's no text dump floating around.

I'm about half done with the story panels, but haven't done any of the machine or pilot profiles. They're short and fairly easy to do.

Leave that to me. I'm going to send them as graphics to you.

So they will look like this:



Left side is the text about the Pilot while the right text is about their machine.

Its easier to display them as graphics rather than me typing them.

23/35 are done. I finish the rest off tonight.

I only have 26 of them in my game -- I went for the easier "survival" challenges so as to fill out the story. Posted two more chapters over at MFO by the way. More tomorrow!

Super Robot Wars Alpha better have been on that list, sir.

Oh, wait, Detroit. Right.

Leave for detroit in like three hours. I should be sleeping right now :/

But yeah, Alpha wasn't on that list. Reason being, Tyria hopes to be done through stage 40 (of 68, all routes included) by this weekend. It's very much taken care of.

My apologies; I haven't had time to look through Gran Historia yet. The last few weeks have been... busy, to say the least - I ended up doing a text routine hack for my Ys 5 project, a font width hack for my Dark Law project, and a new level for a Blaster Master project; further, Majin Tensei's demon dialogue finally got dumped, as did Solid Runner's script and Rejoice's script, and translator extraordinaire/cyborg-typing-machine Tyria handed me another ten chapters of SRW Alpha. And this doesn't even include the extra-internet stuff that's been going on :p

So yeah, it's been crazy. But I haven't forgotten about you! You just happened to pick one of the harder projects for me, is all

^ We are still alive!

I been meaning to send Perfect_Guy an e-mail to ask him to updated his transition model. I sent him a PM but he has not responded to it. I'll get that done tonight.

Heian is doing a brilliant job on translation the story lines. Done 29/51 so far. http://www.mrfixitonline.com/viewtopic.php?t=2628&start=10&sid=230910c30c61f6e53a16897b76a020ac

As for me, I'm working out how to change the font width from 16 x 16 to 8 x 16 (width/height) or add in a VWF but I'm in the process on leaning to ASM hack. Also been slowly editing some more graphics.


The Ember Hack however has been keeping me busy and I totally forgotten to send you the graphic pilots profiles so you could start translating them. I haven't got the all of them in a graphics file let but I send the ones I have done so far to you tonight. I get the rest another time.

I apologise for for sending them so later. Blame the Ember Hack.

Sorry about the slowness on those storyline translations -- too much work and school is filling up all my time!

I'll try to knock out a few more chapters this week!
