Dear Citizens of Monopolis,
after finally having some breathing room and time to focus on our Growlanser 6 translation i decided to move our Bitbucket repository over to Github. A lot of features, which are available only on Github but not Bitbucket, are very useful and it was time to do the switch. Our new GitHub repository is now available under: https://github.com/Risae/Growlanser-6-English-Translation
A few changes and fixes to the translation have also been implemented in the last few weeks, a lot of those thanks to our Super MIPS Hacker Ethanol! It is still a lot of work to provide a fully functional translation of Growlanser 6, but the end of the tunnel is slowly getting closer. Occasionally we will provide a "snapshot" of the current state of the translation as an xDelta patch on the GitHub repository. If you happen to test this version and find any issues like
- Translation is wrong/typos
- Japanese text has not been translated
- Or just general issues that you experience
please open an issue on our GitHub repository!
Aside from that i have been working on improving the Growlanser 5 and 6 Toolkit. It is now possible to merge a japanese and english script of Growlanser 5 (and 6, probably). But it's not fully functional - in quite a few english GL5 scripts there are more entries present than the original Japanese version, so its not working for all of them. But i'm working on finding a simple solution to that.
As always, thanks a lot for the support and encouragement from the Growlanser community. With the translation being fully open source everyone can look and check out our translation - and as such we are open to pull requests.
And, on another note related to Growlanser:
A vtuber seems to have stumbled across Growlanser, and the english translation of the video got more than 150.000 views!
Any advertisement is good advertisement, so here's hoping it will help ignite the flame of curiosity for a new generation of Growlanser fans.
