VERY nice looking translated manual !!

I don't know if you still have any left, but I'm interested too...   :D


Actually, I looked at the m1sz1.com website (linked earlier in the thread) and I wouldn't mind helping out translating other manuals too - although I'd prefer to do something like Xak 3 or Legend of Xanadu II first -- something with a translation or nearing that state.  Any chance one of those will be put up ?

I also have the translated manual for Mottekke Tamago around here somewhere...

Hey, it's Dave, the Kisado Adapter Guy and the man that also helped make the Ys IV translation project possible! Welcome aboard, buddy!! Yeah, Sparky, I dunno if you already sent him one, but he certainly deserves one on the house and you're both up in Canada! ;)

I've been trying to US-ify the cover. This borrows heavily from fragmare's Rondo inlay (all the recommendations are the same so far). It's a work in progress. I'd appreciate any feedback!

the writing under the logo seems a bit hard to read.  What about making the Falcom logo on the back centered along the bottom?
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

Writing under the logo on the cover? Good call on both points. I need to use a higher resolution scan for the cover. Lemme see what I can cook up, but bear with me. Dammit Jim, I'm a programmer, not an artist! :lol: Thanks for the feedback!

Looks great Sadler.

Don't forget the game code - HCD3051 - underneath "printed in USA".
And the little white bullet points next to the recommended games.

I don't know if you're going to be able to make the tiny cover text any easier to read. I think the problem is the original print, not the scan.

Heck yeah, I'd love to have the US-ified booklet (even if it's just front and rear cover) and a US-ified tray insert!!


I'm having trouble patching right now, about to post over in the dub thread about an error I'm getting.

Me too! :D

Anyway, here's probably the final version. I have much higher resolution versions available, maybe someone wants to host them?
