Zeroigar translation, from the intro
« on: January 07, 2012, 11:09:16 PM »
EDIT:

OK guys, you may think this is lame, but since it looks like this is turning into a proper translation, I'm yanking my little first draft here.

See my post below for a nice surprise.  :D

I only wish I hadn't kept making consecutive posts.

It's a little embarrassing, actually.

Nice work on the translation. Any ideas where I can find more info on that tool to sub PC-FX video?

Talk to Esperknight. Maybe I misunderstood him, but I don't think so.

All that's really necessary is a codec that can play and re-encode PC-FX videos. If you can do that, it's probably not much of a stretch to apply virtualdub and swap the new video into a CD image.

Why hasn't there been more activity in this thread?

Anyway, this is very nice work, thank you :)

Clearly, I speak for many when I say that your work is appreciated

I think I missed something...

Anyway, thanks guys. The mpeg subtitling might come together soon. Beyond that, who knows?

Actually, I beat Zeroigar on hard yesterday and accessed the Sakuraigar mode. That uses a simple narrated slide-show between each stage instead of mpeg video, so subtitling that would be difficult. We'd have to see if making a sort of auto-subtitling software could work. The system should have the resources for that, but it is still a completely different pain in the ass.

I'll see what Esperknight says.

I think Esperknight would be game, but I don't want to distract him now.

It's very easy to distract ol' EK. He just loves to poke and prod at just about every game he can get his hands on.

OK, boys and girls, check it out: the pre-titlescreen intro from Zeroigar, fully edited and subbed. I'm pretty happy with how it looks.

See for yourself.

(Note: This was made with a youtube rip, and the quality of the video is not as good as I expect to get from a direct, lossless rip from the game. That is, if my stinkin' PC-98 emulator ever rips the damn files.)
