I believe our intension IS to port the Geofront translation to Azure/Ao Evolution, however there are a few outstanding issues with Zero that we need to solve beforehand. We absolutely need to resolve the issue with the text overflow issues because we know the same issue is going to pop up in Azure/Ao. We also need to figure out how to patch and update the eboot file and get those strings updated.

What's the current update on Trails to Azure vita patch? Any ETA?

To be honest, the text overflow doesn't really bother me much in Zero. What matters is that we could get to play Azure soon...on the vita

No update yet, sorry. Once we start working on it and have something available, you can be assured that we'll let everyone know.

While the text overflow issue may not bother you, it is one thing that bothers us and is something we really need to fix in order to make the game feel "proper". And, as I mentioned in my other post, we still need to figure out how to get the updated English strings into the eboot file, which is taking some time.

We also noticed that the mini-games haven't been translated yet, so that is something that we're looking into.

That is great news! Do you guys have a website or something where we can follow along or get updates?

Your best place for updates is basically this post. Any major updates would be listed on the front page.
That is awesome. I will check in from time to time. I am just starting chapter 3 of Trails in the Sky SC. So it will still be a couple months before I get to Ao. I am hoping to spend my free time this summer playing lots of Trails! I'd love to be able to play them all in order before I start ToCS, but I've heard it's not that big of a deal if you play CS 1 and 2 before Ao... So it's all good! I'll just be excited to have it on my Vita whenever it comes! Thanks for your help!

Brilliant (just found this thread yesterday...)! Huge thank you to the team for doing the Crossbell EVO versions!

Just finished the last game of the three first arcs a week ago and planning to get started on PSV Liberl EVO versions soonish - although having clocked probably over 1k hours on the three arcs so far on 3 platforms the "soon" might take a while... ;)

Also great to know that you're not just only getting the translations done, but doing the QA. Makes the wait more worth it's while IMO.

Has Geofront pulling their patches impacted this project at all? Pretty interesting situation with the patch no longer available because official releases are planned for 2 years in the future. Do you guys have all the files you needed?

Anything gets in the Net STAYS in the Net. So no, not really

Well maybe. There will be no more spellcheck patches. Hardly a tragedy, but nonetheless...

I’ll just hope I can find the 1.01 Geofront Azure patch somewhere, as that had the fix for the Zero PSP saves. (On the 1.0 patch it hangs.) It’s now down, for obvious reasons.

Not a big deal, as I’ll probably want to play the PS4 versions through to get the platinums. (Maybe even the Steam versions too, as I’ve found myself replaying the Cold Steel quartet on that platform to pop all the achievements.)

I suppose part of my question was more like "will the author's continue work despite the eventual official releases?". I'd hope so given we have no other option for the vita.

Yeah I'm curious to know this as well. I don't have a PC, and right now I can play everything except Azure via my PS4, Switch, and modded Vita. I would LOVE to be able to finish Azure when I get to it in about 3 months. But I understand these things take time. If the project has stopped because it is redundant, I will have no choice but to wait for 2 years. Unless I can figure out what I need in a gaming PC.... Haven't bought a PC in about 15 years...

It isn’t ideal, but you can play the PSP version of Azure on your modded Vita right now. (Install Adrenaline, etc.) That’s how I played and finished Azure a couple of years ago.

But Azure Evo seems to me the best way to play it, so let’s hope and believe that our team here keeps it going!

Is there any reason the team would give up? I mean, Trails in the Sky was officially translated and people still patched the Evo versions, granted they're different people but still...

Yeah I have Ao on PSP already ready to go... but I've read that that translation isn't great... Was it really done with just google translate? I DO have a friend helping me build a cheap PC, just in case... We'll see what the cost will actually be once he figures it out.

Honestly it felt way better than the pre-Geofront translation of Zero, so it's totally playable. But Geofront (quirks and all) spoils us.

That being said, have been following this closely because I was (and am) so excited by the prospect of getting Geofront translation patches for the Evo games. I want to platinum these versions.

There should be no reason anyone should play anything but the Geofront translation now. PC or a hacked switch is currently your best bet.
