>>12025957>that Sin and Punishment "translation" that just comes in the form of an alternate texture swap that only works in some emulatorsThere's a proper rom translation created by Zoinkity but it exists only in form of a prepatched rom. You can find it but but talking about it is discouraged.
>>12025970Yeah, I have it, it came out years after that mess though. And the fact that it doesn't exist as a patch file means many places won't let you talk about it that normally would allow romhack dicussion.
>needing a translation for a SHMUP
Laughs at you in 3do translation stuff.Most translations come with a shady doghsit installer that breaks if you look at it.
>>12026031Oh, i've seen plenty of those on both Saturn and PSX, mostly PSX since there is a dedicated Saturn patching tool. But I remember the ZSNES days where I had to run several dos programs in a row to patch a game.
>>12026002>needing a translation for a SHMUPYes. If there is but one line of dialog, it should be in my language. There is not a single Japan only game that shouldn't be translated.
>>12026051Apparently the patching tool for Ys IV English translation on PC Engine CD no longer works on 64-bit Windows machines. You have to use a VM or an emulator to patch the game.
>>12025957They also used a Thunder Force IV track as BGM for the last boss's dialogue instead of, you know, fucking using the actual song released without voices in the damn soundtrack album. I wish someone competent did a proper English patch for this game.
