anyone want to contribute.

[Corn99]

i just wanted to know if anyone can sub titles to movies?because there is a guy or a group of people who want to make a translation patch for space channel 5 part 2.this will include a text translation patch and a voice translation patch.the reason that its being done is because he thinks the dreamcast version is better that the ps2 version,and i agree so if anyone wants to help him.email him at gingo17@zophar.net.so far he needs help making subtitles for movies and voices(mainly extras)so email him if u want to contribute.go here to read the details here.he is quite good some of u may know him as topping as in topping translations(also going by the name of purge).

heres a snapshot of the game running in chankast.[ posted this months late but it was inthe back of my mind so i did it now]heres a link to the snapshot page here

I'm interested in rom translation, but not this one

[Agozer]

Dude, you know PKGINGO/Purge/Hamtaro/Cosmo?! He's the man and has helped me a number of times... and have been seriously devoted to Space Channel 5. Give my regards to him.

I still say rip the PS2 audio, surly what he is doing isnt actually legal anyway????

 

Less time and close to the original, just my opinion though

[Corn99]

well i know that is the best way but it looks he wants that way which is good too but alot of work.and it appears to be legal some where in the world since its a patch.i just dont think the u.s. allows that.if any one knows how legal patches are please make a comment.

Regarding anything, Taiwan it would be legal.

[Corn99]

well.. you could be right but it normally will say somewhere that to edit or alter the software in anyway will be a breach of copyright type thing but who cares anyway, it still sounds like a cool idea

[Corn99]

i know,but many people still havent played part 2 or just dont like the series.some just dont know that the backgrounds are no longer mpeg movie but all polygon.maybe this might motivate some people.i just hope the guy who making the patch doesnt stop it,since he needs support.and to keep it sorta clean ive read somewhere where he stated that the patch applier will check for pirated copies but i dont know how it will it stop people from patching pirated copies.also he says he making the voice samples and music sound better than pirated copies by re-encoding them himself.same goes for the movies in the game.he says the movies might be available for download via torrent,but since he wants to keep it clean as possible i think he'll cancel that.

Got your message Agozer, Demo took it down so bug him, or at least thats what Magus` says, Thanks for spreading the word double99. Provided I can get some assistance subtitleiung the movies (I cant edity video for squat) I DO plan on distributing it via torrent though seeding will only be for a few days. I will need webspace if I do any more but I will not upload it because of legal matters. The patching program will require the user to own the JAPANESE DREAMCAST Manual. We plan to put out a translated manual as well. However questions will refer to specifics like what is the first english word on page four. I've decided to stop scanning for modded 1st_read.bin files. Any other questions I would be happy to answer.

Text translation is always good, the voices however should be left in their original state I think, the japanese voice actors are simply excellent. I never liked the US dub of SC5 anyway, I actually bought the japanese version of part 1 for the voices .

[Purge]

all parts of the translation will be toggleable. Meaning you want japanese voices? Uncheck dub the voices. You want japanese text and english voices? Uncheck translate text.
