You've been waiting years for these. (August 22nd, 2007)

Disclaimer: The dialogue in these screens is probably not representative of the final in the slightest. I ripped the GBA version script for Totus Village outdoors, did some edits, and guesstimated translations of text that doesn't exist in the GBA version.

I also received Habilain's presumed "final" hack of the dialogue routine for 64 max characters/line. But I have in fact discovered a bug where text disappears in a few places. We'll work on that.

I'm beginning to get a little worried about the state of the script translation though. Shinhoshi hasn't returned any of the many emails I've sent over the last few weeks. Hoping nothing bad has happened. We could REALLY use any of the work she's done so far...

As stated in the last thread, the hacked game is currently playable on the console, even with the new code mods up to these screens.

Awesome seeing progress like this happening =D

[Leiw]

Just awesome !!!

Lot of progress has been done with TOP lately

Keep up the good work everyone

[Demon000]

YES!! YES!! & YES!! 

[DemonFang]

OH MY GOD YESS!!!

Hopefully Shinhoshi is all right, but if the script translation becomes an ongoing issue, I'll say what I've said before.  I've offered you both my script and my help in translating many times before.

As always, the offer is still on the table.

And those screenshots look fantastic.  Awesome work.

OMG!!!
It is perfect... *_*

Looking good and its playable on actual console which is very nice.

Hmm... seems we always get trouble with script translations =/

I'm pretty sure you've probably already said you do this but it might be a good idea to just dump the GBA script into the game and release as a seperate patch so that way people have something to pass the time with until the complete script comes.

Indeed that was an idea but there is far more text that doesn't exist in the GBA version than I care to deal with. Much more than I expected at the time, too. At least four of the screens I posted contain guesstimate translations for bits that don't exist in the GBA version.

There are also many strings with additional character interaction. The whole thing would be pretty bleah.

Brilliant. I'm really excited to see this getting somewhere. Alas the absence of a dependable script translator is vexing, but maybe with the new shots you'll get more of a response if you put out the call.

[Cless]

At the very least, we have a translation backup plan. I'm not wasting any time setting it into motion. Still very much hoping Shinhoshi gets back to us, though.

Somewhat off-topic, I've finally begun working on map name centering. I expect to have it hacked and working by tonight...
