It's the result of the fan project that began in 2004 with me and Psycho DeuceBag. So the translation is mostly via his work hours (9X% completed) with loose ends filled in by me using Konami's script from the PS2 port. X.X.XSEED legally used Daniel Prescott, their Celceta translator, so between their GOG version and my fan patch, you get different translation styles/results for one thing. For those that have the Japanese LE or SE from Falcom and don't want to download a 1GB file, they can use the fan patch and get it going.

Honest advice: Want the best translation and editing ? That's gonna be with X.X.XSEED as Psycho DeuceBag is a WWWJDIC machine translation failure as was made clear in the Legend of Heroes 6 First Chapter debacle for the PSP, though they fixed his failures for the Steam PC version.

Here's the lowdown about LOH6 PSP, you don't have to take my word for it:

Quote from: Disgaeamad
FC's translation is such a disaster during parts that a specific person handled that it's sickening to think he actually got paid for it. Mistranslations, guesslations, you name it; it's all there, and a lot of it is stuff that even someone who just started learning the language could pick up on, too. The best part of it all is that the culprit is Deuce, the guy who the western Ys fanbase idolises as some sort of hero of translation.

Whoever he is, I don't know him nor have any connection to him (AFAIK), so he wasn't doing me some negative PR favor cause Psycho DeuceBag and X.X.XSEED are criminal sneak cheats that don't respect the IP Rights and work hours of software developers... That's all his honest opinion looks like.

Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys / Re: What patching program will patch .cab files...
« Last post by Drakul on Jul. 06, 2015, 01:23:21 PM »
Necro from the dead!

Here's probably a stupid question....
I patched my .bin (had to send it to a friend to patch at his work cause it's incompatible with 64bit systems and nowadays.... :P)
I followed the readme and the file size for the .bin matches however how do I burn the 736MB file on a 700MB CD-R? I just tried forcing it to give it a shot but when I put it in my PC-E it gave me a run disk error.
What should I do?

PS: I burnt on Verbatim at 4x with a burn check at the end.

Well of course I wouldn't feel bad downloading the game from the bay since 'history' and I own the game anyway so it doesn't matter.
I'll grab the SE since you recommend it. Since the gog version is already in english what does your patch do exactly?

Sorry to say in all my years of life I have never observed criminals being brought to justice via karma... Hell, even Psycho PruvMeRong (the GameFAQs leaker) is still around, the butthurt creepster that he is... He created 2 sock puppet accounts on the Ys 6 Pirate Bay link to troll me, heh. I sure had hoped karma came around in his direction by now, but nope, he's still around to taunt and is as bigoted, vicious, hateful as ever, etc. He knows he got away with it, just as Psycho DeuceBag and Thomas Lipschultz did... Now that I understand far better with what I was dealing with when it comes to such disgusting people, I know they have no trouble sleeping at night. They're proud of themselves and always will be... Until there are real consequences like a lawsuit, they'll carry on just fine with a "f--k you" or "cry me a river..."

Yeah that's true but then since nothing's been done you could also see it as a "why bother" and move on. I can be resentful too, trust me, but I'm more a person who let's go of stuff because I feel life's too short.

The fan patch handles both of those, it'll work with it. You could do well to find the patch that upgrades it to standard edition, but yeah, it'll work. My patcher will upgrade you with Falcom's latest, but you have LE so it would be 1.0.0.9. There's a 15 meg patch to update the data.na file to make it SE if you want. Better yet, get the pirate bay link downloads -  no need to be deprived of a new script from a translator who isn't a criminal cock-flashing cheat if you can download it. You have choices. :)

I had to point this out to Psycho PruvMeRong actually but downloading XSEED games for free is just as much a boycott as far as my purposes, the criminal cheats inside this company who didn't respect the IP of my translation software let alone care about my work hours are not getting a dime as their IP and work hours need not be respected by the public either... Cheaters deserve to get cheated on, seems fair enough to me!

So no, I don't call for Ys fans to be deprived of new Ys games, but just know if you ever give them your money, you're doing so to a company that supports cheating software devolpers because Thomas Lipschultz hated one in particular and it was made possible by a criminal backstabbing translator who willingly chose to go along with it all... Bad way to run a business if you ask me... Lipschultz could've used the chance to make peace, heal, end drama, but he wanted to go with punishing, persecution, blacklisting as that's all in his disgusting ideological nature. It's clear to any decent human being they should've hired a legit translation company rather than exploit fan translated results tied to work hours of someone they didn't wanna see credited... I can't be the only one that sees this! But you're not dealing with "decent" let alone honest people here, no, not by a long shot!

Are you proud of yourself Thomas ?? Did you save/spare XSEED all that negative PR/controversy you claim your disgusting company would've suffered under had I been credited ? ... Sad fact is, the problem with a bigoted malcontent such as yourself, the answer is yes... They're willing to take all the negative PR from me by NOT crediting me, so I guess that shows yet another phony red herring argument, one of many, by Thomas Lipschultz... I've seen so much propaganda come out of his lying mouth it makes me sick!

I sure had hoped karma came around in his direction by now, but nah, he's still around to taunt and is as bigoted, vicious, hateful as ever, etc. He knows he got away with it, just as Jeff "Psycho DeuceBag" Nussbaum and Thomas Lipschultz did... Now that I understand far better with what I was dealing with when it comes to such disgusting people, I know they have no trouble sleeping at night. They're proud of themselves and always will be...

I just watched the Game Sack episode and saw your name.

Damn. Sorry about people robbing you of your work.

You must now have come here in a while :)
I always check in here every now and again sadly lately Nick seems so focused on the negativity of it all. Don't get me wrong he was fucked, no doubt, but I miss when they were translating and patching and it was a good atmosphere. After so many years I wish Nick, you could take a more zen approach, put it behind you and let karma handle it.

Hey Nick! Long time!

I booted my PC-E today with Ys IV and remembered I had gotten your patch waaaaaaaaay back when (iirc you were done with text but were starting on dubbing or some such).

Anyway I just saw this and I could care less about the release since I already have the same boxed copy as you, I picked it up at the crack of dawn on release after clubbing all night and before heading to TGS. T'was a good day!
The patch I have for VI is 1.0.0.9, then Y6_tujyou then 1.2.0.2.
Are these the same or is it a different one?

General / Re: TurboDuo caps
« Last post by JoeQuaker on May. 28, 2015, 02:19:49 PM »
Thanks for that graphic, that does help visualize things a lot better.

But nah, I still own the same TurboDuo I've since the early R.I.G.G. days! I've barely touched it for years though after throwing away all the games I had burned to CD-Rs (didn't want to risk wearing out the laser). The only thing glitchy with I've ever noticed is the last time or two the audio wasn't quite as loud, or buzzed until I wiggled the A/V input cable a bit. And, in reading about symptoms of leaky caps I've read that "sound issues" are a common symptom. To which I groaned, thinking about the 20+ capacitors I'm about to replace on the monitor chassis board in my MVS-2 cabinet when my flyback replacement comes in the mail. "Oh god. NOT MORE CAPS!"

I've never even opened the console before, and I think I vaguely remember you telling me years back that it's kind of a pain. So yeah, at this point I'm debating if I should try to do a cap replacement this year, or just leave it boxed on the shelf for now.. which could make it worse in the future. I really haven't made up my mind what to do with it yet and was just curious what your thoughts were.
