ROM Hack Soma Bringer Open Translation

[thecrash1973]

All that needs doing is a \nJunel Forest on act 0 Scenario Junel Mission.

It will take secs to correct.

I think he meant in the Quest Summary in the inventory menu.

Thanks, that's more clear. Fixed Junel and added a bunch of the missing objectives.

 

[thecrash1973]

Is it just the patch thats getting updated or both the patch and wiki site?

Just a typo I saw: on act 5 there's a "Rouge Dragon".
I gess it's "rogue".

No, it's rouge.

No, it's rouge.

Like the color, I'm assuming. =D

# The Four's Raid (AB)
# Idea's Missing Key (A)
# To Ordital (-BC-E)

"To Ordital" A and E will follow tomorrow.

But you have to check it thoroughly, it's a literal translation, so there might be something wrong with the spacing, and I had to insert some extra \n because it won't fit in one or two lines. Sorry 'bout that.

But a native will get that right

Furthermore, I have a suggestion regarding the Boss of Act1, Almadora. It's some kind of sea serpent, and some dictionaries said that "ARmadora" has something to do with nautic things (anyone who speaks Portuguese here? Google gave me a list of some ship repair and marine services...) so I wanted to suggest that Almadora is renamed to Armadora - in my opinion, it would fit. And it sounds cool!

Just suggesting. The name would be defined in Soma Bringer Translation A, in "The Four's Raid B", and in "Idea's Missing Key A". As far as I can see. o_o°

BTW, I translated ??? as "guardian", literal would be "protecting hand", and I was confused at the beginning because one says ??? and the other says the Katakana word ??????. But I think "guardian" would fit for both of them, maybe the Katakana word is seen as some kind of title or honorific.

Hey guys how long do you think it will take to finish the patch anyways? I'm not pushing you guys or anything but just asking.

 

[Lockon Stratos]

[Dominator]

Don't worry, I'll go over all the scripts and localize them before inserting them.

Extrapolating from the current rate, at least several months. We could definitely use some help from experienced translators.

Anyone here have post access at NeoGaf? They have a thread over there
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=245778 . A couple of the guys have done some translation and fully understand Japanese; it's also a heavily trafficked forum.

I'd post, but NeoGaf only approves new accounts once in every blue moon.

Wouldn't Armada be a better name, given that the monster is aquatic in nature?

That's not its name, so... no.
????? = AAMAADA = Armada
?????? = ARUMADOURA = Armadora

Did "To Ordital (A--D-)". As usual, with my crappy english, so any correction by natives is highly appreciated.

Two things I'd like to mention:
- ????????? --> Sect Country Maran Asa. I'm not sure about the "sect country"

Found Maran Asa on the Location page, so I just copied it.
- ????? --> Graveh. Copied it from the Location page.

As for me, I'll have to step on the brakes for now, because university is starting from tomorrow. I'll try to translate some parts when I have time, I promise.

I'll check the forums everyday to be up-to-date.

Edit: YKES! Just checked the beginnings of Act1, and I was shocked to see that there are still some untranslated dialogues.
Started with The Priest's Request (--C-), but haven't finished yet, some sentences are bitchy, but I'll try to get that tomorrow.

In my opinion, we should try to get Act1 done soon. I'm sure that some people will be happy to play the first part translated.
But I think before that, the tutorials or dictionaries need some attention.

But that's just a huge flood of Kanji. Spit! ;_;

I went with Holy Land Maran Asa, for brevity.
