Just to clarify, this is a machine translation that was then edited, yes?

 

[Pyrus]

You should probably clarify that in the description of the patch.

 

[DQMaster]

This is an update to a previous post.
I corrected almost all the text using AI and many tools.

There are still some texts that need alignment, but the game is playable.

 

[Pyrus]

Yeah, but in none of your posts do you state that this an AI translation, just that you translated it. That's a significant detail to leave out.

 

[DQMaster]

You have reason, i will update readmes and information​

​

[Pyrus]

Glad to hear so. The clarification is important.

Hey, wanted to check in on this project as I see it still never went up on the repo. I know Juiceala was having trouble getting the game patched and as possibly one of the only people to have done so I feel somewhat obligated to help with making it available for everyone else, so if someone can tell me what I should do to get it on the site I'll be happy to do so. MTL or not I'd prefer everyone get the chance to experience it for themselves and draw their own conclusions.

I notice the Github page is private it at this moment in time so if there's a planned update from DQMaster soon maybe it would be better off to wait until then, but I have the patch from May 1st downloaded if people want to see that put up.

Sorry guys, I had made my git private. Here's the link to the patch I made: Download

https://github.com/DQ-2025/Evangelion-2/raw/main/Evangelion_EN_v27_Updated.xdelta

The game still needs some dialogue adjustments, but it's playable. Just a warning, it's demanding on weaker devices. I've been busy lately, so it will take a while for the update to come out. But have a great gaming session.
