I've been waiting for 84 years.........




WHERE IS IT!!!!!!!!

Give them time, translating a game takes a lot of time and effort
You have to change a lot to keep comedy intact, make it readable, make sure text is not cut off because English takes up more room than Japanese
.
I know its frustrating but they are doing their best! better to have it be a great translation than a rushed project.

Let me begin with a heartfelt apology for a lack of updates. Over the past couple of months, I lost a lot of my motivation for this project, and didn't get a whole lot of work done. That said, scragged and DashingBob have been extremely helpful, and have helped finish up the first Revision process. Though I didn't get a whole lot done myself, I did manage to fix a couple bugs that had been frustrating me for over a year(!) by spending a lot of time in PPSSPP's debugger. After that, I kind of got burnt out and needed to take a break for a while.

So, what does all this mean going forward?
1) The first script revision is done, and the second revision is underway
2) Graphics have been essentially done and inserted for a while
3) There are a few bugs that still remain that need to be fixed
4) Revised scripts need to be inserted

tl;dr: The project is still going strong, but most of what's being done now can't be shown off through screenshots (yet). I took a break after feeling burnt out, but I'm back, and will do my part to see that this project is finished this year.

Take your time and thank you for the work you and your team have carried out thus far.

Since a few people have been wondering, here's a bit of history about this project and a little bit about its current state:

I started this project in August 2014, and have been working on it in bursts ever since. Over the past two years, I've had team members come and go, each of which has contributed their own share to the project. Without their help, I never would have gotten very far in this project. Even so, a lot of work is stuff that I have to do myself (final check the scripts for consistency, extract/edit/insert graphics, edit the font, trace asm code to fix alignment issues, etc.).

Unfortunately, my time is pretty limited, so I'm not always able to work on the project when I'd like to. This past month, I've been going through the scripts and going over some of my older revisions and fixing things that just didn't sound right. The down side is that I haven't been able to get the number of scripts with a "Revision 2" any higher recently. That said, however, I've finished combing over the scripts that have already been completed, and am ready to move on to the ones that haven't gotten a second revision yet.

At the moment it's just me working on this project, so please bear with me for the wait. I promise it'll be worth the wait :yaypsp:

I'm checking this thread occasionally. I'm sure a lot of people are doing the same and do not comment. Be sure that we have no issues just patiently waiting, you seem to be only a few burst away now ^^

Feel free to keep doing occasional update like this one, even just to say that you didn't have time to do much, it just shows that the project is still alive!
