Hey there everyone,
I'm glad to announce that the translation for Langrisser III is almost complete.
Some years ago Cyber Warrior X dumped the scripts for this game and ElfShadow ,Oogami and some anonymous others began the translation. As a result a patch was released featuring all in-game menus in English. While this certainly was great, it would've been even more satisfying to have a full fledged patch to understand the game's well-written story.
To give something back and to honor the work of those who came before me, I translated all those untranslated scripts Cyberwarrior X dumped and revised the ones ElfShadow, Oogami and co. translated.
So, how much has been translated until now?
Almost everything!
Simultaneously I've prepared a translation guide, which can be found on Gamefaqs. If there's no person out there to create a patch, the FAQ at least would allow an understanding of the game's story. As you may have guessed I'm currently searching for someone to take all those files and create another patch. If you are, or know someone who might be able to do that kind of thing, please feel free to contact me right away.
What else can you do?
You could play the game, check out the FAQ and keep your eyes peeled for typos and the like.
You could be happy about this project being revived and express it in any way you like. Leave a comment, help improving the translation, smile at a stranger or visit your grandma, it doesn't really matter much as long as you spread the good vibe.
In that spirit, I'd like to express my special thanks to Cyber Warrior X, ElfShadow, Oogami and all their helpers for all their hard work! High King Tir deserves special credit too for making many plausible suggestions, doing research on names and improving the translation overall!
Lastly I'd like to say a big thank you to D for his support, asking for Oogami's permission to use those files and for keeping the same safe all this time!
Thanks to everyone willing to contribute something so far!
