ROM Hack [Request] Final Fantasy Explorers translation

[Deleted User]

Anyone still interested in translating this game to english? Most likely there will be no official translation for a long time.

I dumped all of the text from the game to excel and uploaded it here for everyone to read or download:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1t8d_OWXF8hlipob4dAWsQOPdu9iK0Cdx7WP2HV9SkgI

It's simply to much for me alone to translate it with just google translate, 15264 text entries, both story and menu mixed.

It contains all the text from
"/message/message.textres" (hash: 3985733386, Retail + Update 1 v1056 + Update 2 v2096)
and
"/message/message_home.textres" (hash: 0641427059)

There is no text limit and it's easy to insert text back into the game, by modifying the game's update (which is just 5 MB), so a almost legal translation is possible since we don't even need to modify the game, just a small update file (-> works with retail cards).

I'll probably start this myself, slowly, over time, probably gonna take several months though. 90% Non google translate translations, not a fan of that method, will just translate it largely by hand with what I know.

Yes I am still interested in translating it. Thanks for the text dump. Shall we decide who takes which part?

has any progress been made on this project? should we just wait until it's released in US?
