Lets localize Terra Phantastica!

[Malenko]

Most of the Tile work is "mostly done", like all these maps are stripped of the baked in Japanese and ready to be Englishified. I am keeping the blank PSDs in case that guy who does all the French games wants to work on Terra after I'm done the English version.

 

[Malenko]

Yes this is still going on, its a metric ton of graphics editing in addition to the thousands of lines of text.

All of the maps similar to the one above are done, and all of the pre-battle "versus flag" screens are also done:

Go go Malenko! This'll be awesome to play once you've finished your patch.

Happy June!

Small status update, all but 1 file has had the graphics edited and recompressed into the game. There's some weird one-off problem with SKEFF01.VLY that I'm actively harassing Conan about =)

We are close to having all of the core of the game translated, we'll just have t go through the branching story bits. Having the debugger is a huge help. MojaMojaKumaSan has joined on to help translate along with Solo (they are IRL friends)

You guys rock thank you so much for your hard work <3

 

[VanLee]

Thank you for your hard work. I would like to try to localize this game into Chinese language. May I ask how to use @ derek (ateam)'s TextCleuth tool in this game? I don't quite understand.

 

[Malenko]

You wont need text sleuth, as all the text has been found, its all in Shift-JIS

Forgot to mention, I'll aslo be releasing all the tools and blanked tiles for other people to translate this into other languages.

我懂的中文比日文多 🙂

Great work Malenko! I've never played this game but it looks so cool!

 

[Wodnes Thane]

I just registered to say thanks for all the hard work. I am a big Saturn fan and would gladly pay for a patch.

The patch will be available for free, as always. Pay for it by sticking around and being a part of the community 😉

Its happening!!!!!

Getting the first cabinet meeting in, first cut scene is in.
Tools seem to be 100% bug free now /jinx

There's a few things left in the 0F bin file , but once that's done, the game will be 100% playable in English, it'll just need the rest of the story translated. All the battle menus and spells, items, formations, etc will all be in English. Once chapter 1 is done and 0F I'll be releasing a private build to Shiro and maybe even SX patreons.

Look at some of these awesome troops.

Red Balls: (aka magical tomato troops)

and troutmen with feet!

and frogmen wearing hammer pants

😛


EDIT: Here's a sneak peak at the VFW in action:

Do we have Japanophones working on the rest of the translation?

The font needs to be adjusted, as the lowercase letters are dancing in height

2 native fluent speakers are working on it.

The font was only ever meant for menus and very sparsely; I plan to make adjustments to get them vertically aligned and adjustements to kearning as well. Do you have any interest in maybe translating it to Russian?

Who knows. We'll see.
