I have a problem. The text never refreshes when I play. So if I open the menu and close it, I still see all the menu choices while I'm walking around.

In battles it gets worse. Everyone's spell menu overlaps since the text never goes away when the menu closes. This makes chosing the spell I want next to impossible.

I've tried a bunch of refresh rates and nothing seems to work. Is it the patch, or is there something else I can do to fix this?

This is a bug with the emulator. The unpatched game does the exact same thing. Either get a DS and a flashcart or deal with the overlapping text for now.

The third beta has been released! Translations of armor and key items are now at 100% complete! As usual, you can grab it from the first post in the thread.

Note: I've also added a "Progress Chart" to the first post detailing the current status of various aspects of the translation. Also, the "something awsome" that was mentioned in Raganook's previous post is phrases. I've located most of the in-game phrases such as "Would you like to buy that", "Cecil is poisoned!" and so forth. We've only translated a few so far...

First off, you guys are doing great. You said you found some in game phrases that you were gonna work on, I'm wondering, could you guys do the yellow phrase that pops up when you fill 100% of the map? It just seems that since its in yellow, it should be something important.

Yes there is still the wrong bat file there... it is not translated.
But man you are working fast. I have one regard: Can u also translate the names of the characters?
Almost all of the Battle is in English so the Naems should also

Yeah, still in japanese. Maybe the culprit is the file trans.patch. It was 2 ko in the 0.1 version, 3 ko in the 0.5 version and now only 1 ko in the 0.6 version. Anyway, thank you to the team for this excellent work!

Hi all,

I've been lurking for a couple of days now and wanted to say to the team, GREAT JOB!!! I don't know how so many people muddle through the Japanese, but I can't and so this patch is wonderful!

As others have confirmed the v0.6 patch is still all Japanese. So until things are fixed I uploaded V0.5 for those who asked.

This is just until the team fixes things, I'm just trying to help.

Download v0.5

The yellow map text is "You've completed the map! You got (# of items)."

If I find it, it shall be done!

As for the the reverting back to Japaneses for some dumb reason, I have no idea how Belmont makes his patches, so I can't fix it

Ughh...That was annoying to fix. Anyways, the first post has been updated. I've also tested it this time just to double check.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.
