PS1 Front Mission 2 (English Extended) PSX ISO

[RageBurner]

A translation effort that builds on top of the Front Mission 5 Team's version to cover what that version could not. It is considered 90% done and fully playable from start to finish. All that seems to be left untouched as of now are certain graphical elements from the UI.

RB's Notes 1: If you are using Duckstation (you should), in order to preserve your sanity, tweak this particular game's settings so that the CD seek speed setting is set to maximum, otherwise, look forward to almost 8 seconds of waiting before battle animations load for every engagement.

RB's Notes 2: MTL regards only descriptions and is placeholder. Text will be either human translated or sourced from the remake going forward.

Alternate cover.

Btw, is this better than the remake? Something about the remake just wasn't clicking with me, it felt cheap.

The remakes were done tastefully, especially considering SE saddled a small studio with handling one of their great franchises instead of doing it themselves. Wisely, the remake devs kept content parity with the original.

While divisive visually, I think they look great, except for the battle camera in FM1R; they chose a pretty deflating side view over a back view that already existed in the arena and more closely matched the SNES look.

This is great news, hopefully the PS1 version of FM1 and Alternative can be given English patches one day. Does this patch sub the FMVs?

Finally. I had been forced to put off playing FM2 for so long because the PC remake was such a horror show. Hopefully, they refine this one to 100%.

Now, if only someone could get to Front Mission Alternative, and we would finally have the full franchise covered.

I also hope that Front Mission 2089: Border of Madness is next in queue.

There's actually an active fan translation effort for this going on right now. They've got a discord where they keep people updated.

What a great day! The previous translation was playable, but well, kind of annoying when you got to the non-inserted bits. Glad to see this happen, its been a long time coming.

Man, this is incredible for Front Mission fans. Seeing someone actually update the FM5 team's base code to make it 90% complete is awesome. Massive thanks for the hard work on this!

Excellent! Just need translations of 'Alternative' and '1st' for the PS1.

Mercifully, Front Mission DS is FM1st as well, and that version has a fix for the terrible battle loading, too.

Finally! Been waiting for FM2's English translation for almost a decade.

Same, never thought it would happen. Hopefully it will be polished further.

Listen to the man when he says you should set your CD seek speed to maximum, you'll die of old age before finishing a single run through the game otherwise.

Exactly! :D
