Re: New Interface Translation of [RJ125993][CircleKAME]Parallel Fantasy IF v1.4 Stabl
bless youI had some time to kill and was bored so...
I am nearly finished with a 'Full Interface Translation' of this very buggy and incomplete beta game.
I did this because this game is easily 6 months to a year away from being actually complete and if you look at the guts of the game you will quickly see why. Basically the author has used complex, messy and totally unnecessary scripts to handle almost all gameplay mechanics and used equally complex, messy and unnecessary Events to handle most scripting creating a whole lot of excess work for himself at little to no benefit to the final product, it is all Very Weird.
Anyway so far all Scripts, Actors, Classes, Items, Weapons and States have been translated. I still have about half the Skills, all the Armours and the Enemies to go. (Man is it boring work).
I have also translated all the Menu Screens including the “Information” Event (The one that tells you how many times you have been diddled and where) and the “Every 5 Levels ‘Abilities Power Up’ When You Sleep” Event (There has to be a better way of describing that) for the Main character, I still have to do these events for the other party members.
I have absolutely NO intention of translating the game itself (Not now or ever), just the interface and interface events. It will take me at most a fortnight off and on to finish this up (Did I mention how boring it is yet?) but I thought I had better ask you knowledgeable players if you can think of any other insanely confusing and in desperate need of translation events like that level up on sleep one.
If you can give me specific enough details to find it and a good enough reason to translate it I will. (Be as specific as possible including copy pasting Kanji etc as I have barely played the game so any… ‘that event, with the thing, you know the one’ descriptions will be pretty meaningless to me)
For the time being do you guys want me to upload what is done so far or would you rather wait a week or two for the full interface translation?
By the way you will need to start a New Game because of script changes, but I have finished translating all necessary scripts so if you start a new game of the partial interface translation you won't have to start yet another new game for the completed interface translation.
P.S.
Anyone wanting to do a real game translation if and when this game is actually complete is welcome to use what I have done in anyway they see fit without asking me or giving credit or making comment.
P.P.S.
I have made detailed notes of every translation I have made in both text documents and within the notes section of RPG Maker to make copy pasting my translations into any new translation as easy as this mind numbingly boring and repetitive process can be. (What no sleepy smilie on this forum?)
P.P.P.S.
I think this is my first ever post on here, man I envy you guys and your ability to find the time in the day to be all chatting away on multiple Forums and Facebook and Twitter and E-Mail and Texting and still get any Real Work done. I can’t even find the time to do the Real Work part let alone any of that other stuff and I'm a dang insomniac.
