The transalations are done 100% yes but we dont now how long it will take for the epilouge to reach 100% plus the graphics are another unknown to us so lets wait untill scripts are 100% done
Well, the epilogue is only 99 boxes of dialogue. Graphics are mostly done, with a few exceptions. What's going to take the most time is localizing the scripts, rewriting them to sound more natural in English. After that's done, there are several major technical bugs that need to be ironed out. I can do the graphics and localization by myself, but I'm going to need help on the technical front, picking up where CompCom left off.
At this point, I'd say a 2016 release is not unreasonable, but I won't make any promises, since I have no idea how long the revisions and technical bugs will take to iron out. I'll let everyone know how things progress.

That sounds good but i wont get my hopes up. Id recomend contacting some good tech guys in the psp scene on this forum for help with bugs
All of the story scripts are translated! Now begins the long, but easy task of localizing the text, and the harder task of fitting it back into the game.
So, in the meantime, there are two huge technical issues that are quite prevalent.
1) In the board game sections, text is not centered in the textboxes, and textboxes are drawn far too large. I assume this is because the way the game handles the centering of text and the drawing of textboxes does not account for the variable width font.
Examples (ignore the screwed up checkpoint description; I haven't reinserted that text or updated its pointers)
Originals for comparison
2) A variable width font has not been implemented for character dialogue in the board game sections.
Example:
Anybody willing to help out with these two issues (either or both!) would be greatly appreciated. I'm not sure how difficult either of these two issues would be to fix, but the font used in the dialogue boxes is the same as that used in the description boxes, etc. I assume that the same character lengths could be used. As for the text-centering/box-drawing, I'm completely at a loss. Please don't be afraid to help us out!

Someone give the team a hand or find someone capable of helping them please so they can finish the game.
Just to give us an idea could you maybe add a Localisation % on the OP to show us your progress on localising the scripts for this game.
So Fshadow did you found someone to help you atleast for text-centering/box-drawing? just curious.
Hi buddy!
Any progress on reviewing the scripts?? and has anyone solved your hacking problems?

The hacking problems are solved/being worked on thanks to CompCom's return. Scripts are currently being revised, but no percentages are available in regards to that. Not much else has happened, but I will be sure to post some screenshots as soon as I have new content to show.
I've registered just to thank you for what you're doing and also ask you when will we see the patch? I've been waiting for this game for who knows how long..If you want you can even release an alpha patch.Thanksssss
Unfortunately, I cannot give any estimate of when this project will be completed. I can only work on it when I can find free time, which isn't very often. Revising/Localizing the script takes a lot of time. It's rarely as simple as fixing a typo; each line often has to be restructured entirely, to make it sound more natural in English. On top of that, some text may be too big for the dialogue box, so everything has to be tested in-game. If a line is too long, I have to decide what is most important, and trim the line as best I can while keeping the original meaning intact.
As I believe I'd previously stated before, I will not be releasing any patch until the game is 100% translated, or as much as is realistic/possible. The reason for this being that, with a previous project of mine, certain sites were distributing prepatched ISOs of the game with my translation. This site had far more downloads/comments than the site I had originally uploaded my patch to. The biggest problem for me was that the patch they were distributing was several versions old, meaning that all the people playing my patch were getting an incomplete product, completely unaware of my newer version.
I know that probably doesn't answer your questions in the way you were hoping for, but I'm doing everything I can to make sure this project doesn't die. We've come really far, so just be patient, and I'll try to keep everyone up to date on the project's status.

Am triying to learn japanase, that is why i know how hard is to translate, and top of that, you have to know hacking for this kind of translation, so, keep up, we are rooting for you.
I can't give any updates on the translation but I can give an update on my hacking progress. So far I have fixed all the issues I found in the game including all the game board alignment issues. There are still a few issues I need to fix with my tools but things are looking good.
Here a few a screenshots to show off the progress (Please ignore the japanese text as I am using an old build).

Or, I also heard that if you use flash memory, it can act as more "RAM" at least windows tell me when I stick a flash drive into it. -
