Chrono Trigger Prerelease Translations V. 0.9 Released!
« on: January 31, 2009, 04:49:44 am »
GlitterBerri of BerriBlue, the current Guru of Time, has finished translating most of the Chrono Trigger Prerelease! Only a couple appendices and the unpointed text remain, and the good news is that the unpointed text is possibly decipherable, even though it uses an outdated table and incorrect compression dictionary calls. Download the comprehensive script spreadsheet here and check out analysis of the differences at a brand new article here! MANY thanks to GlitterBerri, who is furiously in the springtime of youth! Check BerriBlue for more of her translations, including a Legend of Zelda manga and unused Final Fantasy 7 lines.

I am really too terribly busy to do a full Mega Update right now; there's an impressive backlog building. Some things do need attention though; they'll be posted again when I can do the Mega Update.  [1]  Luminaire85 demonstrates why he's a Guru with the release of his Chrono Cross Model Importer for Blender, which now works with just about everything.  [2]  utunnels has released a program that helps assemble Chrono Cross background art[3]  utunnels has improved upon the methodology and technical workings of injecting custom MIDI music into Chrono Trigger; learn how here and watch impressive demonstrations he's linked.  [4]  For helping fan creation and research so much through the Radical Dreamers translations and work with Chrono Trigger and Cross, utunnels is our new Guru of Life! Congratulations.

I'll be reading through the pre-release text later.

It's amazing what hacking stuff's going on these days!

Yeah, I mean, holy living hell. Cross and Triggr stuff like crazy, translations, and then...like a shadow in the night, or the sun about to dawn, Crimson Echoes is inching towards completion.

I'm also amazed at this site. For a series that is more than ten years old, there are still so many fans, and what's more important, there are still new dreams being dreamt.

Always cool to see Gurus in action. I went through the CTP translation script finally...

Crono and company are safe, but can everyone get back to their own time periods...!?

Can Crono and company really take down Maou in his own place?

Wow, and here I thought I had trademarked "Crono & Co." long ago and all this time it's been sitting in the Prerelease...!

Holy crap...Slash was Weiner and Flea was Ketchappa! :lol: Funny that the ketchup-based name made a comeback with Ketchop in Cross...

Note to self: The Chrono Compendium - Me pee a little.

I think the "New Laruba Village & Worship of Strange Stone" part is probably talking about the SilverRock but that it's foreshadowing what a new Laruba would do with the Sun Stone.

Wow, Esuna instead of Haste...That would have made Marle extra useless...>_>

The Compendium is even more of a lively and marvelous vessel these days! Awesome work from everyone!

Congrats on becoming a Guru, utunnels!

Aye, you totally deserve it, utunnels--ya did well.

The pre-release had some seriously hilarious stuff in there--aside from "me pee a little", Weiner for Slash is just plain awesome. And "Arousing Tongue" as a technique? My goodness.

I thought I would never see the day when the Pre-Release actually has a fully done translated script.  I'm in awe at this.  Everything is going insane right now with how much progress we're all making with CT AND CC!  I love how everything's braught to life nowadays.  It's fantastic.

Body armour of some sort? With a protection against magic or something, maybe...

EDIT: Annnd I should've read the page first.

Mirror Mail

 村長「ミラーメイルさえあれば、
   魔物どもの殺人熱線をふせいで、
   この村を守れるやもしれぬ……。

Chief: If only we had the Mirror Mail, we could
   prevent the murderous heatwave of the demons
   and protect this village.

The Rainbow Shell was originally planned to be Mirror Mail in the Prerelease. There are lines referring to it as the Rainbow Shell, suggesting that the Mirror Mail lines were leftovers from an earlier stage of development. Later on, we find out that the Mirror Mail was stolen by Magus's henchmen after the fall of the lair:

 トマ「サンドリノの村長のほしがってる
   ミラーメイルだが、魔王の部下に
   もってかれちまったらしいや。

Toma: Looks like the Mirror Mail that the mayor of
   Sandorino is after was taken by the subordinates of
   the demon king.

It's interesting, maybe you had to fight Ozzie & co. in the lair sidequest for the Mirrorainbow Shellmail doohicky originally?

It would have been nice if it was meant to reflect spells like "Reflect" in the FF series...

I think it might be prism mail or something made from rainbow.
