Hello World!!!
« on: Jan. 10, 2006, 12:46:39 PM »
Welcome to my blog portal! It is I, NightWolve, your friendly neighborhood Ys fan translator/romhacker. Yes, indeed, I've made my triumphant return! I still exist and am still cooking up new projects for Falcom’s Ys games. I’ll leave it to your imagination to figure out exactly for which ones… *ahem*

This looks like the start of something, what will it be? Who knows, but I am sure of one thing and that is the fact that Nick will have something to do with it.

NightWolve,

I tried to register for an account on your blog and it said it would email me my password, and it never did. Also I was wondering if you have a translation patch for XAK 1 and 2.

Ah, it might've gotten sucked up by your filters for spam possibly due to the domain contradictions present with how I'm running the server. Possibly. Anyway, welcome.

As for Xak I & II, no, I will not nor ever will be working on those. I thought about it way back when I was still into doing fan translation projects for the PC-Engine/Turbo Duo, but found that there was no support for an 8x16 font like there was for Xak III. Xak III was a special case from a technical standpoint, in that it was virtually ready for a US localization (built-in ASCII font support, etc.).

At any rate, I can tell you that Xak III and Ys IV were officially my last projects for the PC-Engine/Turbo Duo. I'll only be working on Windows PC games nowadays, mostly by Falcom. In fact, only Falcoms PC games as far as I can tell. :P

It's good to see that your still around in some form Nightwolve. Shame the message board had to go thou. Personally, I would have just assigned board matinense to another soul. But it would not feel like your message board after that and that’d be creepy, in a sense.

BTW Nightwolve, have you ever consirered the possibility of starting your own small translation firm? With Working Designs calling it quits after all these years, there could be a market opening. ;) But that’s just my wishful thinking, I’ve been reading too many success stories such as the dawn of ADVfilms…

Anyway good luck with whatever title you may pickup next. I'm hoping it'll be either Ledend of Heroes VI or Xanadou Next. Since Konami haulted all work on Ys VI and I’m sure the same thing will happen if they get Felghana. :(

Hey,

To be quite honest, I never liked the old forum software, anyway. Ikonboard? Ewww. :p

What an interesting day this is. I've found a Canon PowerShot SD100 Digital Elph in a parking lot today. It may be old, but it's still a pretty nice find.

Anyway, good luck with the translation project! :D *lurks*

Im playing with nightwolve's patch right now, its great.

NightWolve , if you would like to make a translation to spanish i'll be glad to help, I dont know japanese but Im from Dominican Republic and my english is pretty good.
If you give me a script I could translate it for you.

toranoshi69: Thanks for the offer, but I just don't have the energy to ever think about other language translations.

mjmmx: Yeah, I'm still in the process of choosing a theme/skin. I've been switching around from time to time. Alas, I cannot find one I like enough which I then would try to build off of. Still picking a title for the place, too. ;) Anyway.

Hey NightWolve,

I was wondering if you ever thought about doing a translation for Ys V expert for SNES.
Someone apparently started one and never finished it. Any chance of getting a better translation?

Work for Ys V is actually being done by Ghideon Zhi on & off over at AGTP with Psycho DeuceBag's translation help. I could not help for SNES even if I wanted. But yeah, that's all I know about that.

Well, it's far from up, but sorry I left you out of the loop, ya rascal! ;) But that's what the referral on the RIGG RIP page is for ya know...

I've got lots of work to do on it still, but it's "something" for now, at least. Still haven't settled on a theme, but I think I like this current one right here. Then there's moving all the frontpage crap over from rigg.servegame.com... All daunting tasks, sadly.

Was it? Could you give me a comparison? I was looking at that cause that's what jmet is using. I learned about WP from D-boy. Anyway, I did try both actually. I found WP was more developed as far as the admin screens go and functionality, but nucleus seemed nice too. It was hard to pick. Also, it looked like WP had more available themes to choose from, so that factored into my decision too. Anyway, I'd be interested to know why you think nucleus is better.

I found it easier(and though it is powerful very easily extensive by plugins) to handle for some reason.Some blogs lacked functionality some were too messy to handle.Wordpress is still a nice thing. I guess they are good both. I need to dig deeper into core i guess to say for sure if one is superior then another.

Hi there NightWolve! I absolutely thank you for your fantastic work on the Ys PC games! What a stellar idea - and what a great job... apparently; I wouldn't know myself yet, as I am having trouble getting the english patch to work on my PC (ooooooooh the frustration!) Hence, I am writing to you in hopes that you might help me to remedy the problem.
Heres what I have done:
1) I switched the language business over to Japanese as outlined
2) I made sure I had the proper files in the Falcom folder ("ysc0203" - i have a Radeon card - & "ys2OP_1")
3)Installed my Ys 1 complete (which I can access and play fine in Japanese...)
4) ran the ys 1 v.1.26 english patch - said it installed successfully...
5) Now, when I try to play the game I get the message:
"the data file wasnt found or the capacity of external memory is insufficient."

I am totally confused as to what to do or try now. If you could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it very much.

Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jesst

Hmm...wonder if you'll see this. I had just d/l the Legend Of Heroes VI and i stumbled upon your patch in which is supposed to make the game run better, but after applying the patch and the config file~i was told that i needed a CD to play. I have a no-CD crack, but it can't be used in accordance to your patch. Is there anything i can do?

I guess you mean that there is a newer patch than ED6_1032.zip. Unless the config file really changed with their latest patch, I assume you can still use my config file. Try it and find out. That's it. All I did was make the config file English btw; it doesn't make the game better.
