No this project is not dead

by

As a matter of fact, we are more lively than ever.
The reason there were no updates recently is that:

1. Romsstar, the owner of this blog, was in hospital. The doctors there disapproved any internet or Translation activities.

2. Exams are coming up.

3. I didn’t feel there was an update big enough to tell.

I could mention, that Mails are 100%, some story sequences 100%, other stuff 100% blabla, but seriously, does it really matter if you are going for 100% for the whole frickin game?  I don’t think so.

I don’t like simply posting screenshots or videos of some English ingame scenes, you have seen plenty of them, they all look the same.

What I’m trying to say: The next big update will happen as soon as we succesfully inserted some ASM work in this game.

Also guys, unless I officially state that this project is dead ( and I won’t!) this project is ALIVE.

So stop saying this project is dead, they stopped blabla, you’re freaking me out with this, and I could get so mad at you that I will just stop the project to get back at you for freaking me out :P

So chose your words wisely :P

PS: Some of you already guessed it, but hereby I confirm: The same team thas is presenting you Digimon World Redigitize will also bring you Digimon Adventure for PSP.

Although due to resources and the nature of the game, this wil probably stay at least for now as a Menu Patch only Project. But, you never know how things can turn out, so  never say never.

    And this translation isn’t their only job. They have their own lives

    Yeah, I agree that they should at least post something every now and then to let people know that they ARE actually still there. I mean, a whole month without a single post? It’s understandable that some people would consider this to be dead. My opinion is, any kind of post, whether it’s related to the translation or not, would be a good post. That way people would know that they are still there, and it would satisfy a lot of people.

    To me digimon is a part of my childhood. I can only understand 60-80% of japanese (story-wise) when playing jpn games or raw animes. Having localized jpn games, fan translations, or subs really helps so please don’t destroy my hope of having a translated game by spouting your negative point-of-view in this site. Thank you.

    Guys calm down, I know we have all been expecting a translation for about close to half a year now and are losing patience. Trust me I feel the same way… But you guys gotta understand that the translators have a life outside of this too and they probably did not reply because they were busy doing more important work. We have to respect the fact that they have nothing to gain from this translation but they are doing it any way to help us….

    So if you have lost your patience and think that the translation is dead, you’re welcome to get out of this blog and keep your opinions to yourself.

    i don’t even know why people even complain about not getting updates or why its taking so long to release it.

    if you wanna play it so badly, go play the japanese version of it. if you can’t read japanese, then be proactive and learn it. if you’re too lazy to learn japanese, then hack the games yourself and make an english patch for yourself. why wait for them when you know its gonna take a long time for the to release.

    so in the end, don’t blame the translators, but blame yourself for not being proactive about it. if you want the game that badly, go out and do it yourself instead of wasting time and complaing about it.

    and if you can wait for it, like me, then just sit back and wait. if it comes out then it comes out, if it don’t then it don’t. its not like its the end of the world if the patch don’t get release.

    Hey, don’t know how many people would be into this but I was wondering if anyone would consider creating a Digimon World 3 hack. I was thinking that there could be new starter packs that include the main starters from the first 3 seasons such as agumon gabumon biyomon as 1 pack. Veemon, hawkmon, and armadillomon. and then Guilmon, Terriermon, and Renamon. I figured we could import sprites and other things from previous games. We could keep other digimon available through dri and create new dri agents. This work would not be easy and I am by no means a hacker. I just thought this would be a cool idea and that I may get some help on it. If you have any questions email me at meierjrod@att.net
