[Dreamcast] Shiren the Wanderer Gaiden: Asuka the Swordswoman English Patch v1.0

[BreakSilence]

Here is an English patch for the Dreamcast game:

Fushigi no Dungeon: Furai no Shiren Gaiden - Onna Kenshi Asuka Kenzan!

This continues the old SharkSnack English demo patch.
The original patch wwas never finished.

translated:

• Main story
• System/menu text
• Item labels
• Most visible UI

not translated:

• FMVs are not subtitled

I would call this around 98-99% playable in English...

I tried looking into FMV subtitles, but honestly I do not know enough about Sofdec video to do it properly.
Derek Pascarella aka ateam has done this kind of work before with Rainbow Cotton, but this part is still over my head.

Maybe somebody else will take on the FMVs in the future...

For now, enjoy an almost complete English translation of the actual game.

Woah, cool! Nice to see another DC translation.

I did a bunch of subtitling for SGGG. Use SofDecVideoTools to get the videos into a format like .mkv or .mp4. Then use AegisSub to create subtitles and time them. Then use SofDecVideoTools again to get them back into .SFD format. It's not hard...just tedious. Good luck!

What a good news

Oh brilliant! Has somebody been able to test this yet?

I had to apply this ontop of SharkSnacks old v0.16 translation.
If I apply this to a clean untouched japanese gdi, it crashes and endlessly loops the Dreamcast boot screen.

Seeing as Langrisser V turned out to be AI slop, is this AI slop too?

More Shiren translation is always good.
