The third GBA game only released in Japan, and that translation project still isn't done... I don't have much hope for this getting off the ground, but good luck to you all, DS rom hacking seems far easier than GBA rom hacking.
On a technical front, SNX is way ahead of Hajimari no Ishi. There's a working dumper and inserter for the text that's available to the public. Images appear to be the big issue.
In comparison, TLZ is trying to build on top of Ritchburn's old code because oil_ not only refused to share his tools but also didn't want to crack open character limits unless it was absolutely necessary causing the script to be a truncated mess.
On a translation front, I think I'm working on SNX at a decent pace, but I'm alone and SNX is decently long.
In comparison, Hajimari no Ishi is done. I'd be more comfortable if it ran though at least one round of TLC and terminology check, but if I have to do the TLC, it's going to happen after I'm done translating SNX, so I'd personally appreciate it if someone else stepped up and did it, especially since I admit that my early work on that project is painfully rough.
EDIT: I really have no clue why a comparison between the two projects is being made. The games are in the same series? Like Final Fantasies are all in the same series. SNX is a standalone in a different world with a different summoning system. Hajimari no Ishi is the third in the Swordcraft subseries which is set in the same Lyndbaum as the main Summon Nights. I guess the two projects have one member in common, but if my translating is that bad, just tell me and I'll stop.

Been playing this game even without full translation, but I'm at the point where I don't know what to do since the translations stop where I'm at. If this translation project completes, I wouldn't mind playing the game again from start.
The last update was last month, so yeah, I'm guessing it's still ongoing. x'D
Most translations I'm following don't get updates for months, sometimes years.

Been busy. Not with this. I'm alive. I think Blazer's alive.
Flight-Plan's names still strike me as vaguely nonsensical. Who names the king of a country "Novice"?
900/916.
If anyone mentions Hajimari no Ishi in the thread, I will flip tables.

Man I don't believe it's so near, congratulations you've been doing a great work, Thank you so much.
I don't believe it's as near as it seems. Once the translation is completed, a whole new set of issues could will arise. Bugs, misplaced text, crashes, etc etc etc...
Did the translation of the 3rd GBA game ever get finished and released? If not, there's no point in starting another project before one is finished.

@SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that

@Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.+1 -

I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol

I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
