Hey, I just stumbled across this.
You guys still on with the translation project?
I might be able to help out with the proof reading / editing role if you are still looking.

Indeed we are still on with the translation project. I believe we're set on editors for the time being however. Once we have everything fully translated we'll pass it off to a few more editors before making a full release.

Isn't advertising another thread that's unrelated to the topic at hand is against the rules? Either way, that thread has no reason to be linked to the current thread, nor do I even have any idea what the hell it's about.

And yet rather than editing and removing the first... you do it again...
Great job with the translation guys! Take as long as you need to finish. This is no easy task it takes time and patience.

I made an account to say thank you for your hard work and dedication. I played this game years ago and finally want to come back to it. Playing it in english made my year!
It's nice to see so many people patiently (and some not so patiently) waiting for the translation to be completed.
I was pretty busy the last few weeks, but now things are back on track and if everything goes well the secret project I'm working will soon be ready to be revealed.

@danikk
ha ha, the tease game is real"
but yeah, everyone working on the project has a life outside of translating this game 24/7
it always brings a smile to my face when more people stop by and offer to help with this project.
anyhow, as always, I look forward this project's reveal !!

And now its time to show all of you what I'm working on:
Sd Gundam Overworld HQ texture replacement project!
Before:
After:
As many of you who played earlier SD gundam games (Wars) have probably noticed, the graphics quality for many attacks in Overworld is much worse than before, yet some attacks (generally the new ones) look much better.
I was curious as to why this is and investegated the textures of SD Gundam G Generation Wars and Overworld, and eventually figured out the reason:
both games use paletted texture (usually with 256 colors), but Wars uses 512*512 textures, and OW uses 384*384 textures. The smaller size in itself is not the main cause of the quality loss, the problem is that there are very few ways to resize a paletted texture, and retain a limited number of colors. By the look of the textures they used a very simple resizing algorithm (most likely nearest neighbor), that retains the limied palette, but produces very low quality results.
What I'm doing, is extracting the textures from Wars, resize them with a more advanced algorithm (Lanczos), then reduce back the number of colors to 256 (using tinypng.com, because anything else I tried screwd up the transparency in the images). Even though the textures are converted twice, they still look better than the Overworld ones (generally ships have the most noticeable change).
Tis means that only animations that were already present in wars are getting replaced, but the newer ones usually look better anyway.
But I bet you don't just want to read about better textures, but want to see them:
The same with the original textures for comparison:
There are a few more videos on my channel.
And now with eyes!
You can find more screenshots that I collected through the project here:

Currently the project is approximately 30% complete.

It IS very incredibly crazy and miraculous amazing!
I've never thought that my first-time translation project, beginning with a simple text replacement, would come to a day that we translate and replace Japanese pictures, and even to the point that we do animation-texture replacement!! Oh Jesus Christ!
You are such a miracle worker.
So glad to have tried to join this project.
