Guys, let's not fight. It's just a name.

This isn't fighting. I'm simply saying if he doesn't like it, he can change it himself.
I agreed with kosheh on what it should be. I may have translated it, but it's his translation. He can do what he wants with it.
Not yet, but it will surly escalate into one.

Hi, I've been following this board for a while (great job by the way with the translations, kosheh!) but this is my first time posting.

Just wondering but does Videl, Android 18, and King Kai show up all twitchy in the character selection for anyone else? I noticed with my clean ROM they show up fine, and when I apply the patch, that's when the problem shows up (I've tried the patch on several ROMs and same problem)

But yeah, I wanted to know if anyone is experiencing this or if it's just me? Thanks!

Twitchy? Really?

That's really interesting. In my copy they don't - do they twitch out in gameplay, too?

EDIT: Just figured I'd post my progress while I'm at it. I don't mean to be an ass by posting the exact same screen as Elza posted with all my work so far; but TBH neither of us can really get anywhere past episode 1 lol (there's an issue with loading our saves in DeSmuMe; I have all the characters unlocked and stuff)

but yeah

STORYLICIOUS

All the first chapter's episodes' names and synopses are translated. I'm going to remove "Arc", "saga" etc. from the names though, I simply don't have enough room in the ROM and I don't wanna be pointering things into empty space for chance that I destroy the game's code lol

that and the text seriously doesn't fit in that area as well as I'd like it to

Also, hope you guys don't mind me turning at least one of the What-If mission names into more interesting ones lol.
I tried to be clever as I could and I tried to stay relevant to the subject matter.
tl;dr each What If so far has one throwaway title

But: What-Ifs seem to flip-flop in first and third person synopses
They're more colloquial than the canon story synopses x)

Maybe a native Japanese speaker could make more sense out of this than I can.

Sorry, but if you can`t understand something like that, I don`t think you should be doing a translation in the first place.



EDIT, to blahkamehameha

1. I`m a girl.
2. Do you have a problem with me being correct?



For one, I don`t steal projects.

Secondly, my point still stands. If you can`t understand something as simple as those lines, you`re not going to get far.


And don`t bother replying. I`m doing dealing with people like you.

Security. Toss this guy out.

EDIT:

1.) Toss this girl out.
2.) kosheh is doing a great job. If you understand Japanese so much better, then are you going to make us a patch? Thought not.

"I'm doing dealing"? Perhaps japanese is your expertise, and not english.

You all act as if none of you are trolling by responding.
She's not even entering the thread anymore, so what was the whole point of that?
Flaming is just as much against the rules, but you don't seem to be bothered with that.
You can't justify flaming either.

Good job on that guys, real good job

Nathan: You're not psychic.

I think both sides would make a great patch if their threads didn't have so much drama piled on top of the good stuff.

Kosheh, a bunch of your translations are wrong. Like, completely. The first line of the description in the screenshot isn't what the Japanese says.
In another section you have "Yamcha Evolution", but... That makes no sense. The Japanese says "??????", ?? means "to be revived/resurrected".

The first test. Can you translate this:

Haha. I won't speak for Kosheh, as I'm not Kosheh. I'm not sure if he is still having problems with it or not. It being translating challenge descriptions and such.

@phoenixgoddess27: The ones who say they aren't coming back are the ones who always check back. Saying you won't come back to the thread is basically lighting up a big 'ol sign that says "I care and actually will be checking back."

I know. :{
That's paraphrased because I couldn't get it to fit. That and I didn't want it to be *too* close to Elza's description. :3c
IIRC The literal translation is "The battle with Piccolo! It's a peaceful world until an enemy appears..."

You stumbled upon the first and only throwaway title. x) The reference should be kinda obvious for that one.

I originally called the mission "Rez'd Yamcha" in my patch since I couldn't fit in "Yamcha Resurrected" and I thought it was pretty silly. So I changed it to something that would fit.
Now that I know how to fit it I'll probably change it back. >:

ARGH I'VE BEEN FLAMED THANKS A LOT NOW I FEEL LIKE THE SCUM OF THE EARTH WHAT AM I GOING TO DO

1) I didn't steal the project from Elza. It's more, well
Someone was very adamant on not allowing help, and since I had a reasonable amount done myself. Rather than let it go to waste, I posted it. :3c
People liked my work, so I continued. When people asked for more,
I was totally boned on the offsets for some things, so I used some of Elza's translated stuff to help me find the offsets. And I did.
But later on I didn't realize that I missed a few spots and Elza publicized it :{

2) I didn't know I needed romhacking experience AND fluency in Japanese to translate a game. Thanks for the tip!
PROTIP: Elza doesn't know the language either. That's why you're helping him with his translation after all, right?

If this was a hacking requirement I'd say we're all pretty screwed and half of GBAtemp should give up their projects. :E

but that'd be kinda silly so I'm gonna go back to goofing around with these pointers
oh, and by the way, not gonna cut corners: there's a pretty valid reason why I stated I wasn't translating the story mode in the first place. You've pretty much nailed said reason. x3

That's why I'm posting text dumps; so others can help me with it. If they want it, they can pitch in and help out. :3c

You could also make it "Yamcha's Revival" it's shorter.

Haha, nope, doesn't say that either.
"It's been five years since Goku's battle with Piccolo." The last part is right.

Mind if I append that? :3c

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    99% of the time ordering online I have had flawless experiences, only time something was messed up, I ordered a big TV from Amazon and it came smashed the box was literally like some one jumped up and down on it, didn't even open it, contacted Amazon sent them pictures, they made me open it and take more pictures, free label to return it and they sent another. So it was relatively painless. But still annoying.
