Hi @Weyu and @JamRules , are you still on this? Not caring that much about progress, just don't want to see your work lost.

I haven't heard from Jam, which is worrisome but not much I can do about it.
I just hope that he's taking an extended break and isn't dealing with translation projects right now but will be back soon. So let's wait and see what happens.

And yeah, I feel the same way. I spent many hundreds of hours on this so I'm the person that wants to see this succeed the most.
I realize this is sucky news, but let's try to keep the drama at a minimum, perhaps it's not a big deal at all.
We've been doing this for several years now, so seeing him be gone for a couple months is not that big a deal in the scheme of things, at least that's how I see it.

Whats the situation exactly? If it's just some hacks to adjust drawing of text boxes/character limits I might be of some help since I'm doing just that on another game... ( taking a break for now since the code makes me want to poke my eyes out )

Lemme know if I can be of any help and I'll try to poke at it.

Sorry to hear that! You guys are always welcome to come to Clementine and play PSU if you want your fix until things get back on track with this particular project.

I think I've checked this forum everyday for the last few years. If this project were to die, I'd literally hire someone to take it and finish it. Hopefully Jam just took a temporary break.

Thanks for the offer, but we're already past that stage. We basically have almost everything working regarding the UI and the translation itself.
Last I heard from Jam, the re-compressed files did not 1:1 match the original files which caused freezes, but he was working on it and getting closer to figuring out what the problem was.
But since a while I haven't heard from him. As said before, I hope he's just super busy or something and that he'll reappear eventually.

Really hope Jam returns!

Will you guys/gals working on this accept donations to help motivate to complete the patch?

It's not really a question of motivation, but that Jam is MIA still.
As for donations, I wouldn't feel right taking them with the current situation, which is out of my hands.
Money was never the incentive for this, I'm just a fan of the game so I liked working on it.

Once the project is closer to completion I might open a channel for people to show their appreciation should they wish to do so (hey, free money), but that's not the case right now.
