clipboard output. It definitely works, it just takes some time, patience and

Dan, it might not do you much good using Google translate. I don't know, 
I've never used it constantly... but the few times I tried it, I barely 
understood anything. lol

True that. And like I said, I can't really comment on it... since I haven't 
used it in detail. I just use dictionaries to look up words I occasionally 
don't know, and once in a while I'll use Google translate to confirm whether 
I'm getting something right. What really messes it up is all the English 
words that are used in Japanese, especially in games. But I do admire anyone 
who has the patience to switch windows constantly to paste things.

Re: [Audyssey] The first Bokurano Daiboukenn game.

2013-01-03 Thread Shadow Dragon
The game needs to be able to output text to the clipboard. Most Japanese 
games can. In some cases it needs to be toggled, but not many, and it's 
usually not hard to find, like in Shadow Line you just pick the top option 
when the game starts. Then for any text, which includes menues, dialogue, 
descriptions of items, etc, the text will be output to the clipboard as it's 
displayed in the game. All you need to do then is paste the text into google 
translate set up to translate japanese, and it works fine. You will need to 
install the Japanese Keyboard and IME, in windows 7 this can be done under 
control panel, region and languages, keyboards and languages tab, and click 
the add button. Then just check the japanese keyboard and IME and they 
should install. Then in the game window, hit alt shift to switch to japanese 
and it will translate properly. You may need to set your system locale to 
japanese also. Note that this has no actual affect on your keyboard under 
most conditions.

[Audyssey] The first Bokurano Daiboukenn game.

2013-01-02 Thread michael barnes

Hello.
If the Bokurano Daiboukenn is a sequel, then does anyone know when the 
developer will release the first game or any game in the series in the U.S.?

It would be cool to play the other games in the series!

Re: [Audyssey] The first Bokurano Daiboukenn game.

2013-01-02 Thread Shadow Dragon
There were initially plans to translate both BK1 and 2, story and all, into 
english. As far as I know, they've been scrapped because the developer 
doesn't have a good enough grasp of english to translate the storyline of 
either game. There was a project I was involved in for BK2 where we 
attempted to use google translate to finish up the storyline, but it proved 
to be to difficult without a working knowledge of japanese, so all we ended 
up doing was the menues, items and weapons and most of the monsters. I 
believe most of the shop texts are translated as well, but can't remember. 
This is probably as far as it will ever get unless someone who actually 
knows japanese very well gets involved in the project and is willing to put 
in the time and effort to translate the entire storyline. And I don't know 
that BK1 will ever be translated at all, probably not.


Google translate does work to play any of the japanese games though, as long 
as you're willing to put in the time and patience, the game outputs text to 
the clipboard and you can make sense of a lot of poorly translated phrases. 
I've beaten all of the japanese RPG's that have been released so far using 
this method, including all 10 of Morokuma's RPG's, BK 1 and 2, MM's Shadow 
Line, fighting cores, Geki Ransen and a game called ArkWar. I've also made 
it pretty far in Brave of Cloudia, and though the plots don't always 
translate well, the game mechanics are understandable and you can generally 
get at least a basic idea of what's going on in the storyline. So I 
recommend that if anyone wants to play japanese games, use google translate 
and put in the effort, don't wait for translations that will probably never 
come or you'll just miss out.
