We are hopefully translating the second game after this one.
Also I'd like to say that we have translators that will help us out but If you want to contribute to the project too here are the links for the files that need translation for the time being:

I've only played III for the Genesis and have always wondered what the first two were about. Anyway, good luck with this

anybody that can translate japanese is welcome.
Just go to the 3 links Noitora posted, and start working

EDIT: and please, no online translations. Only for people that are actually fluent in Japanese.

Hey noitora, is the 2nd and 3rd spreadsheet set to public?? I can't access it.

 

[Noitora]

Oops I'll fix it right now.

I've translated some names, pretty fast stuff anyway. I have no real knowledge of japanese though, so that's it for me =) too bad, I've always wanted to be in a translation team. Anyway if you're not happy with my translations feel free to change them in any way you might see fit. I'm sorry if I made any mistake, I just wanted to help.

noitora, we should not edit the comn files until all texts have been translated cuz of the pointers.

(from my experience)

 

[Noitora]

We have decided we are not going to use the game's default font because it looks a bit ugly.If you like a font from another game please say so, so we can insert it to this game.
*note:Some fonts may not be of the same format so we can't use them.

I'm moving this weekend (ugh, I'm still in my old place just so I can get on the net) but when you guys get some parts prepped I'll be happy to do a little helping if I can.

It's actually an action Rpg kinda like Zelda.

 

[signz]

Wow cool thing. Keep it up

 

[Aikia]

Pokemon Platinum font looks really nice

 

[psycoblaster]

oh we need a 10x10 pxl font.
a 12x12 font will look like an 8x8 font in game.
an 8x8 font looks VERY small ingame.

Good luck with the translate. Isn't there Ys2 too?
