How is going the translation yugix?

It is going fine but in slow rate. I will fix some translation errors and finish the evolution requirements then I update you with progress since I can hardly find freetime to do it

I have a friend (Takoman781) who is going to work on the story translation. he is fluent in both english and japanese and should be done with the story by next thursday or so. he is working in Normmatt's main story text on google docs which can be found at the bottom of this post. This should speed up the translation immensely and if yugix finishes his translations of the quests, digivolution tree, and item descriptions we should have a full translation by next week. again the link to this translation can be found at the bottom of this post and anyone who wants to help is welcome to do so.

This is the link to the story translation

would a translator speed things along? sure they arent always accurate but at least u can get the gist of what the dialogue means.

No you can't. It's been explained why over and over again.

 

[suaqua]

by translator do you mean a person translating or google translate?

This is too good. And he nearly finished the first partition which is very good.
I found the quests info (it seems to be like Digimon World dawn/dusk list view) and I'm translating it now.
I hope to finish it as soon as possible

Thanks Suaqua and Takoman781.

so I was looking and it seems that the story is twice as long as I thought (4800 dialogues) so it may take a little longer than expected but if people who know japanese and english are willing to help out with the story that would be great. it would make sense to start at a different section than what takoman781 is working of so post which dialogues you will be working on here we will be doing it in bunches of 500 or so for efficiency. if you delete any japanese by accident, just notify me what the line number is here and I will replace it since I downloaded the file. good luck everyone and thank you!


p.s. the first scene of the story is now finished

Thank you,

When I finish the quests and details, I will join you in translating story.

OMG the story

 

[dgwillia]

Oh man, if this patch gets completed, i will be a very very happy man. Loved the other Digimon games (Especially the RTS one, Championship or whatever it was called).

Takoman781

Thanks Man

 

[saadred]

you guys are amazing thx yugix and suaqua and takoman786

 

[suaqua]

if anyone knows someone in the gbatemp community, another forum, or in real life who may be able to help with the translation, please link them to here so that we can get alot translated quicker than we would otherwise. any bit helps be it 10 lines or 1000 lines.

 

[Normmatt]

The main dialogue seems to be hard coded to a width of 12 I haven't worked how why yet but I have a quick hack that forces it to always be variable width which it should be most of the time anyway.

This Translation is Going Well

 

[Normmatt]

I can now edit graphics. The game apparently doesn't care if they are stored compressed or uncompressed

so for now they can just stay uncompressed as it doesn't change the size much if at all and shouldn't cause any problems.

EDIT: What do you guys think of me reusing one of the other fonts for the main dialog

 

[PhantomBanger]

I'm normally just a forum stalker on sites like this these days and never really sign up anymore, but the work you guys are doing here has made me feel the need to come and say this.
Thank you

I've been wanting to play this game for so long, it's only because they brought out a Xros Wars game I found this ongoing translation. I look forward to playing this game to my heart's content thanks to your hard work.

Also, while the font feels a bit different from other games, it's not bad different. Works perfectly fine for the main dialogue in my opinion.

 

[saadred]

Yea the font is aweosme no need for exact font as long as i can read the story its perfect
