Hacking Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity - English Translation

[Fefo]

I can deal with anything on PSP2, does Infinity added anything which can't be dealt with adaptation and gittin gud? I'm pretty used to hard games, and this game has several tools to completely negate damage. Equipment hunt is mildly interesting, but elusive drop rates and going back to Lv1 doesn't make getting to Lv200 FOUR times a good choice on my eyes.

I also doubt low level rebirths add up to Type Lv50, but I might be happily wrong. Anyway I was thinking of doing the last "rebirth recipe" of that list, so in the end I would rebirth on LV200.

Is Magashi Plan available, and doable, from start? Everithing discussed reeks dullness, but don't worry, when I snap I'll just go back to normal and reasonable mode. For now it's grinding season.

I'm going totally offtopic here, and wouldn't care if you just purged all these posts. I'm just doing a self-centered bump here, chime in if you want me to stop. Gratz.

It's fine, your helping to prevent the topic become haunted by ghosts after the lack of updates

How did you get ethan's hoodie?

 

[Dark_Ansem]

I think it was also in the normal PSP2...

The Brave Jacket is on that list, which was pretty much Ethan's shirt without a hood. I think it's also missing some arm guards or something. Ethan's default shirt was the Braves Custom, which isn't on that list. Maybe it was added in Infinity?

IIRC you could get it from one of the MAX Attack exchange missions.

Someone mentioned awhile back that words could be replaced with other words to get the job done. "Died" instead of "incapacitated" sounds good, but it would be good to avoid using the wrong context. Inacpacitaed is more like a K.O. rather than death. Just saying my thoughts on not using the wrong word choice.

Page 12, first post. KO'd is among the suggested replacements of 'Incapacitated'

 

[Weyu]

Is there a problem with incapacitated? In Japanese it's 戦闘不能, which you can translate as "unable to fight/take part in battle", incapacitated sounds good to me.

 

[LoliRam]

I've been using incapacitated as well. For the special on weapons, I THINK I either put Insta Death or Incap. to make sure it would fit.

Insta death probably won't make sense in the context

 

[Mage-Andrey]

There are no problems at all. We were just discussing possible word replacements. Incapacitated was just an example. On weapons simple 'Death' (lvl1/lvl2) would be best.. i think =)
In psp2iwiki its 'Incap'. For long-named weapons like "Gilt-Edged Trickster" i suggest cutting to 'G-E Trickster'. At any rate, if you use names from psp2iwiki, that will help recognize them... even if you cut them a bit =)

 

[LoliRam]

Once we're able to actually insert weapon names, we'll see what the restrictions are. I do not see there being too much of a problem with names tbh. I think your "Gilt-Edged Trickster" was entered as Gleaming Trickster, IIRC (The alternative being Gleaming Punishment which is likely too long.)

Incap. seems to work pretty IMO, and it's consistent with PSP2s special name as well

In the case of weapons with damage reflection, this just BARELY fits (Yonohate In btw) but gets the point across.

And if we were to go on actual visible character limitation for weapons... We'd be very limited. Though in the case of PSP2, Kokuinto Houzuki is pretty long but still fits. So we'll have to wait and see once weapon/item names are insertable as mentioned


Edit: Ugh so frustrating.. Just wanted to example that stuff real fast and then I noticed a bunch more errors in text I still need to fix. And just when I thought I got them all...

 

[Fefo]

lol, I was renaming my Persona Q OST tracks to english. Of 15-ish names, only one shrunk. Most of then doubled, nearly tripled in size.

 

[LoliRam]

English is very wordy

 

[Mage-Andrey]

Right. Very wordy. With stuff like "brb, w8, fu, .i. , plz" and other stuff i can't remember. Okay, i'm joking, i know that's unofficial crap.
Good work posting those screens btw, (<-- another wordy word) shows there's progress going on =)

 

[Core Deadeye]

Consider the word 'wolf'. In Japanese it is 狼 , only as wide as perhaps 1.5 english letters. Replacing Japanese Kanji with english letters is problematic as far as space is concerned. 'Incap.' does sound like a good replacement to me. As for english words in the patch that need to be shortened or abbreviated, perhaps it could come with a text file that would work as a key for those abbreviations. Sounds good to those who like little details.
