Translation Digimon Story: Lost Evolution Translation Project

I have the thread in my signature.

paulodelaa100 is translating it. He understands english so you can contact him. I think he could make use of the tools. He was starting with digimon names and skills, so that's something.

Well the tool that i've got is pretty simple and can't be used to translate the whole game, just some of the MEMSPAK-s iirc (iirc there were the stuff to be translated)

Oh alright, though I think those guys need translators right now, that tools may come useful too, dunno if he has any of them.

Hearing about Super Xros Wars being translated just made my day.

 

[PauloDelaa100]

I translate it but need help

Dunno if you made a final decision on this or not, just catching up after a month or two of not checking the forum. I agree with Mobo Zone, but if I'm not mistaken, don't we usually call it a "video card" over here rather than a "graphics board"? Vicard Zone rolls off the tongue somewhat nicely...

^Just to add on, my progress might be a bit slow because I'm busy with a lot of graduation/school application things right now, not to mention other paid work. I'll still try to work on the translation but yeah I still gotta put paid stuff first :v

I Have Faith in You,Yugix and Garmmon,with the Two of You and the Rest of Your Team,you Can Complete the Translation

If you can do better, then be my guest.

We are not an official team being paid together in a studio preparing this game.
No, we're all random people collaboratively working together on a project.
For some sections to progress, we need other sections to progress and unfortunately all of us have real lives and real responsibilities so we wont be sitting down 20 hours a day slaving to reach a release date.
When it gets done, it gets done.
But you know, seeing guys continuously call us slow only makes me want to slow it down further.

Is This Translation Project this Slow

I'd say I'm the one slowing this project down the most, since I'm currently the only one translating, sorry.

But honestly I'm not obligated to be fast, I'm still doing this in my free time which I could easily spend on the countless other projects/work/hobbies I have instead. Translating for free is honestly a pretty crappy job to do because literally the only reason we do it is out of love for the game, and it's hard to continue with not only real life getting in the way but also people constantly complaining about it. If you have the time that we translators don't...then well as other people say, it might even be faster for you to pick up Japanese than to wait for the translation to be completed.

So on one hand I'll apologise for being such a slow butt but on the other hand, that's what you gotta make do with unless someone better and faster than me happens to want to take over. My school/work/interests take priority over this translation and complaining's not going to change that.

Take your time guys, we all know that real life responsibilities come first. Some people are just jerks and realize you do this in your spare time. Keep up the good work everyone

Are we talking about the name of the places or what?
Would be great that you put a example of it in the pool.

 

[Black-Ice]

To give a bit more context on the poll,
We've been having discussion whether to name area's straight from the translation or keep some of them like they were in Dawn/Dusk or just change a word completely.

So for example, Shadow Hell translated out of Japanese, or Shadow Abyss the localized version.
Its a poll on localisation or full natural Japanese names for the in-game locations
We need you to stop us throwing our toys out the pram so please vote.

Shadow Abyss for sure but what's about the Mazabo and grabo thing? That are the examples of the localized version?
If so then what's the japanese names of those?

 

[Black-Ice]

Mazabo and grabo

You answered yourself

 

[GamerzHell9137]

You answered yourself

Hmmm Mazabo+grabo VS Shadow Abyss..... I think i'll go with Mazabo+Grabo(Japanese names)
Thanks for explaining.
