Heh, I almost bought Faxanadu for $10, despite not having a NES.

...and now I own pretty much all of them, except for 4 Super Famicom -- I was made aware that I might have issues trying to play it on actual hardware, without modding my console even further than the cartridge slot. I still have 4 PCE, so I'm happy. I played through the entire game on my US SNES, and I didn't have any issues. Also, a monkey could mod a SNES. Its really, really, really, really, really easy. |

Bad news, and good news. But news is news!
But unread news is worthless news, I suppose.
I played the Ys series in order except 7. Haven't touched it.

The only thing I'd like to get rid of is the Blog Home and Recent Entries buttons, but they were included with the tools, so *shrug*. I'd rather spend time working on the translation again. Did you look at the screenshots?  |

I can add text boxes as needed easily as well, but none of those pictures are anything related to hitting the text length limit. When it hits the limit the text loops around on itself. Kinda interesting.
All those problems stem from the colored text codes, all of the problems in those screenshots are also solved except for the copyright symbol, which is just a font thing.
I ran into a text length limit on menu items, but those can hardly be fixed without restructuring the layout.

Is there a 'Percentage Complete' anywhere? If I overlooked it feel free to call me a dipshit. If not, do you know approximately what percent you have complete? For some reason I like to know these things even when the knowledge isn't accurate (Ys V's been at 80% forever). If you don't know, or don't care, again, feel free to call me a dipshit.

We do have a progress bar, but it isn't always reliable like wyrdwad said. Here you go though, if you'd like to have one to keep track of:  |

Clearly tancients has developed a technology by which he is able to alter the flow of time relative to himself. 10,000 hours to him is but a few short days in our time.

It's just unreliable is all. But a progress bar is a progress bar, right?
And wow, I wasn't paying attention and translated some lines of Alwen in the tone of Isabella....
No wonder I thought it sounded weird when I was translating it...

Fixed a name error (in both the poll and translation!)
Those are always nice to catch...

Here you go though, if you'd like to have one to keep track of: If that's even within fifteen percent of accurate then you're significantly farther along than I'd expected. Friggin' awesome. I feel all warm and fuzzy inside now. |

Unless I've been completely missing it, a lot of the jokes and funny stuff isn't so much in slang but just the wording.
Like the maid with a problem with her height, there was one line that upon revision, I MIGHT just try and make it into "itsy bitsy teeny weeny (yellow polka dot...etc etc)" rather than the teeniest thing ever. Who knows.
But mostly, just doesn't seem to be as much slang I guess. Other than slacking!

Next Friday's update will be late as I'll be out for most of the week traveling for a job interview and a little R&R and won't be back until late Friday.
If you haven't voted, only 5 days left!

Last day to vote (Here or on the website, prefer website!).
Actual News update will probably be Saturday this week. Was traveling instead of translating!

I feel like I'm spamming my own thread...but...
Does anyone know how to get rid of the poll now? Editing the original post I don't see the option...
And to make it interesting for people who don't know who come look, here is a fun quote I just translated!
"He doesn't care what type; married women, dominatrixes, they're all love at first sight." - Pipiro about Pokkle.
