Dragon Force II Fan Translation: Seeking Testers! (HQ)

The Dragon Force II fan translation project's first partial release has entered the testing phase! We need eight brave warriors to step forth and test this baby on SSF, and give us feedback. We can also use lots more Japanese-to-English translation help! Sign up at the Verve Fanworks forum!

I think I read previously one scenario is translated; have you posted this anywhere?

[Verve Fanworks]

Check out the Romhacking(dot)net front page article for a link to Sanice's intro. You can read Reinofhearts' translation of her scenario by visiting our forum and looking for it in the "Translation Parlor."

I've seen a video with Tradnor/Sanith Opening in English on youtube, this doesn't appear to be in the rom to be played though? Or I did something wrong :P Is it possible to get the 1 scenario that is translated? Or is it not yet playable?

[Verve Fanworks]

Not yet inserted in our public releases due to technical issues. The way the game's code works, we're forced to have all story files in English or all of them in Japanese.

If worse comes to worst and we don't recruit any new translators for Dragon Force II by the time "Tian di Jie" is finished, we'll get Sanice's English script in at least and make it available on the forum. All the other scenarios will be rendered unplayable, but at least Heart will get to see his awesome work go live in-game

[Verve Fanworks]

Hey Eric, you can check out reinofhearts' translation of Sanice's scenario in our forum. It's in a Microsoft Word file, so it's easy for you to flip through if you're interested.

When this is complete it will be a huge victory for VG Translators and Dragon Force fans alike. For a lot of us this is just as high priority as shining force 3 ever was. Keep up the good work, and till then, I'll play some kingdom under fire... or dig out my old Saturn.

[Murat Türk]

I can test it. I played the first one and finished all chars.

So i have played most of all Rpgs at Sega Genesis/Saturn/Ps1&2&3/

PC.

I am not a beginner, i can say that i am a Pro. at Rpgs.

Tell me when u will need help testing it the game but i cant help u guys to translat.

I would love to help with this game cause i testet it japanese but i couldnt get the story.

[RitzyBromboroughSNL]

Hi, I can't help with the translation unfortunately, but I would help with the play testing if you still need volenteers?

[emirmena]

Dont know how to contact you guys so i write it here.... hopefully you read the message, i been a fan of the series and im wondering if you could post a video on how to play the game ?

thanks for everything

[Verve Fanworks]

Hey Den, we're still keeping an eye out for translators. One scenario is complete (Sanice/Tradnor) so that will definitely be inserted down the road.

[ericmalitz]

especially compared to the first one.

[ericmalitz]

Is it just me, or does this game appear to have some major graphical/run time issues?

[xsnap]

are you guys still seeking testers!? i've been wanting to play this game since like 2000 when i heard of it... i LOVED the first one sooo, i've always wished the game would be remade for like the PS2, or Iphone or on the PC.... T.T i want it soo bad

[SuperSherf1]

Ahh yeah would be nice if could just have the one scenario to get to play through the game once at least. I imagine it is still a lot of work to release a version making all the others unplayable though. Just have to keep waiting :)
