Dragonlance ~Dragons of Autumn Twilight~ in Ukrainian. 'Cause why not? ~Дракони осінніх сутінків~

When I was still a little kid, this was one of the first fantasy books I ever read, and since it had never been (and still is not) released in my home country, this was also one of the first books I read in English. This was one of the side projects I kept doing during frequent blackouts. No idea whether I will continue it from those 7 or so chapters I have done so far, but oh well. Mayhaps someone will find it interesting.

About repoduction business shit

Ok, I finally got from my real life to write this post since been thinking about it for quite a while already. First and foremost, NEITHER ME NOR ANY OF MY FRIENDS AND COLLABORATORS SUPPORT REPRODUCTION TRADE. I'm sick and tired to see the work we put so much effort into sold on etsy or other garbage bins. ALL OUR TRANSLATIONS ARE INTENDED TO BE FREE AND NEVER TO BE DISTRIBUTED FOR ANY PRICE.

NEITHER ME NOR ANY OF MY FRIENDS AND COLLABORATORS EVER ASK MONEY FOR OUR WORKS. And I mean all works, including hacking, translation, manual graphics and so on.

WE IN NO WAY ENCOURAGE PIRACY OF GAMING (OR OTHER) SOFTWARE. So, dear David Florida and other motherfuckers selling their repro shit with our (or someone else's) translations - please, get your lousy excuses 'bout "support to the scene" and "making this only for friends" or "we only sell one copy per person to cover our expenses", roll 'em up and stuff as deep into your arses as you can - I believe in you, morons, don't let me down. You trying to fuck just game devs here - you're trying to fuck the scene, and tbh - you're the biggest discouragement I ever had in my translation efforts. One thing is to get a glossy copy for you or your friend and another one - putting this all into fucking serial production.

For the time being,

1. I put all my current projects on hold (there're like 10 of them) and watch over this situation closer.
2. I'm seriously reconsidering any further work on disc-based games.
3. Most likely, no more manuals in English will follow from now on (yeah, bastards, try at least mastering the fucking photoshop and google translate instead of stealing everything).
4. I'm seriously reconsidering of putting the translations into the public web.
5. And, yeah, to those guys who actually buy from the above - cheers - your support is very important for them but don't come here crying and asking for a new work.

PS: The above should not be taken deeply by guys making collector's editions, spare boxes or other handmade gaming merchandize putting a lot of their heart into those - that's pure art, and I respect that, guys.

End of message for now.

Gojin: The Chronicles of Steel released.

Yep, here goes another release of another obscure Japanese tactical adventure role-playing game - that's how I would call it - for PlayStation. Comparing to Ecsaform, this one is several grades below the level of quality and gameplay, but it has its perks and funny stuff so enjoy!

You can find the translation patch here.

And complete manual in English here.

Ecsaform v.1.1 joins the fray.

Yeah, this is a complete translation of an obscure dystopian TRPG for PS1. Both the game disc and the Navigator have been translated. Enjoy the game, buy the original and repot on anything you feel wrong.

The translation is here.

And the manual is here.

                                  

"Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together" for Sega Saturn released.

After having done the March of the Black Queen, we eventually got down to bringing this down as well. What initially looked like a simple PS1 translation hack-in ended up with the total rehaul of the game text and importing PSP version (the best one currently available) and making it compliant with the game lore as well as our "uncensored parts" of the Black Queen. For those dumping their image from the original game - I highly recommend the clone cd format due to the way the game stores and plays the musical tracks.

You can grab the translation here.

PopoloCrois v.1.3 is out.

 Another small batch of typo and palette fixes. Grab it here.
