A Startling Odyssey 2 translated manual was being worked on by Tru but I haven't heard anything on it in a while.

Holy cr*p! I forgot about this until you asked specifically for an update.

Here's an old post: http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=9456.msg170180#msg170180

Original: Page 14 & 15 (Japanese)

Work in Progress: Page 14 & 15 (English)



But I have more stuff on a harddrive somewhere (I finished 6-8 pages?). I didn't complete the manual 100%, though, that much I remember. 

Also, if you read the thread (backtrack a few posts from the link above), Black_Tiger did an excellent job on 2 pages of the manual and I didn't want to re-create the work he already did...but I don't think he ever got back to me (essentially, I asked if he still had the source files).

Black_Tiger's PAGE 4 & 5


UPDATE: Found another WIP...not finished... but I have (I hope) the updated (completed) source files on a harddrive somewhere...

Work in Progress: Page 16 & 17 (English)
