ROM Hack Blood of Bahamut Translation

[WataruKun]

Hello everyone., well along with Soul Silver, I decided to start translating a game where I'd actually have to translate anything. Since it's been requested around here, I started working on Blood of Bahamut. Seeing as the games text is uncompressed and everything, it's a pretty easy to modify the Japanese text. So today, I started translating the text as well as inserting it into the game and so far, it's been going pretty well. Right now, my main focus is translating the menus and stuff.

Anyway, here are some early screenies of progress... Don't expect a patch anytime soon though(As there's an assload of menu text that needs translating).

Note: The translations in these screenshots may not be final and in the patch, most of the untranslated text will be translated.

That's awesome. Will this turn out to be a full translation like HG/SS, or have you not decided your goals with it yet?
Anyways, best of luck to you.

You've done enough on PKMN translations. I'm looking forward to this. Good luck.

I think this should go the way the "Tales of.." translations project as for only to release a final patch (if you intend to do a full translation), but wasn't this announced to have an official English release ?

Couldn't find any confirmation on a US/Euro release, just speculation.

Stop spreading rumors. If it hasn't been confirmed and there's no proof, don't spread rumors.

You don't need to go further than Wikipedia to see that it hasn't even been announced for US/EU release. The game was released August 6.

We appreciate your efforts Watarukun. It must be tough having to balance your HG/SS translation, this and your life. Good luck!

Looks interesting, and it's always good to see new translations that aren't dime-a-dozen Pokemon projects.

I would figure out the pointer system, as it will mean that you do not have to abbreviate words, but that's just a suggestion.

Even if I did that wouldn't help that much. The menu file is HUGE and repointing all that stuff would be a bother.

I thought this game was being translated officially

anyway I've tried it in Japanese and it's hard to understand thanks

 

[Drixster]

Finally someones doing a constructive translation...good luck with that bro...message me if u need ne help with anything

 

[DeltaBladeX]

Well, I'm interested. I've tried a menu patch before and did a few levels. Seemed okay until I got stuck since I had no idea what to do next. Even if we have to wait for a complete patch, it will be worth it.

Full supporter man! i love this game! good luck!

 

[multiboy2k]

You got my support as well. Great game!

it's a cool game, but not exactly SE mainstream stuff, so chances are we'll see the remaining Dragon Quest games localized way before this one, so good job WataruKun

 

[FencingFoxFTW]

sorry for d-post

internet acting up

 

[megawalk]

i was waiting a long time for a upcoming translation
thanks for providing it and hopefully it gets done soon enough

i played BoB though. it was very exciting having huge boss fights

the news thread, tells that DQ 9 is going to be localized, so how many other DQ game are there?

 

[BluWacky]

I still think this is going to get an official translation; one of Squenix's translators is in the game's ending credits.

But have fun!
