PS1 Langrisser V (J+English Patched) PSX ISO

[RageBurner]

English translation of Langrisser V. The plot spins off after a certain point of Langrisser IV's story. It forms a two disc set released in Japan as Langrisser IV and V Final Edition.

Author(s): nEOsighT
Type: Translation
Version: 1.0
Date: 14th of June, 2026
Status: Fully Playable

RB's Notes 1: The patch was created using a deprecated .ppf algorithm, so you could have problems patching manually if you choose to do so.

RB's Notes 2: The opening text crawl is not translated. Everything else seems to be.

RB's Notes 3: thanks to user cocik26761 for patching the image, hopefully the patch author will redo it quickly so it's actually compatible with the current ppf v3.0 standard.

Sorry but this is an insane thing to say the machine translated text is 100% clearly machine translated and often hard to parse compared to the cutscene text

Your mileage may vary depending on the API you're using. As the translation software itself states, free translation keys won't be as good as paid ones.

My key comes from ChatGPT; just 5€ and as I'm nearing the end of the base game, it hasn't even spent 1 euro. Leagues above the machine translation software they used for stuff unrelated to the main plotline, like the vocation quests.

I've attached a picture; disregard the obvious messy pronouns (because japanese), and tell me what is hard to parse about this.

Our standards for "utopia" have hit the floor, apparently. No one was talking about fracking or deforestation here. We're talking about how large corporations needlessly took RAM out of the hands of consumers. This could have been easily done in such a way that individuals and businesses could have individually bought into offline LLM-capable, high-RAM machines without straining our water resources, but big tech saw an opportunity to move everything to the cloud to control user access to technology.

No one here is a senator or legislator, and that kind of action certainly is higher-impact, but why must one exist without the other? Swathes of fan translations are getting low-effort fan translations that strain the environment, and this discourages human translators from making higher-quality translations of those games. Many are against this, and this is a problem that can only be addressed on the internet, not at town hall.

"Utopia" is here being used as a way to cast aside any argument toward common sense as fanciful and outside the scope of reasonable possibility. A utopia, after all, is something too perfect be true. If AI had been developed without the cloud and data centers, that certainly wouldn't suddenly created a societal utopia, just one step in the right direction. That's a good thing, because such a reality could have happened, and perhaps still could be in our grasp.

You make very good points. I'm not casting anything aside, though, just positing that discourse is a token force: money talks and that's the oldest truth; the examples I gave were just a colorful way of saying that much.

Short of a global boycott, you won't even tickle their pockets. Running models on a smaller, controlled scale? perfect, I agree, but the trend won't turn until the corpo bubble bursts and they are forced to shut down and scale back data centers by law.

Until then, yes, utopia. That said I do believe that's all I can say,. The reason I engaged with this discussion is because you were respectful, thank you for that.

Hey guys (who already play this game), stop whining over AI stuff and rather tell me if you found any misspellings, bugs, untranslated menus and so on...simply, if it is worth to play it from start to finish in this state or if we have to wait for updated version of this translation. I dont know if it is caused by this a quite "negative" thread but it is weird that such good game has only 700 downloads in comparison with other translations which have thousands DLs after couple of days. Thanks ;-)

I fear that at this point this sort of tactic produces negative results.
I try to sympathize, but I'm so sick of this online discourse that I just really don't care anymore about it.

Focus your efforts on the people that can actually make a difference in your life and neighborhood, not on randoms online. My sloppy AI wedding invitations are the least of your concern

If you're sick of the online discourse, just imagine the discussion IRL. Imagine having real skin in the game. Real flesh, future, and family at risk. I ain't here to convince nobody, just saying it's real, even if the online discourse is frustrating.

 

[HexGramarye]

You aren't wrong, but what you are describing is an utopia. Loggers still log, oil is still spilled and the soil is still fracked. Changing anything will require legislation and enforcement, and AI is no different - it's the current devil, until something else takes its place.

Complaining here will do absolutely nothing - no one here is a senator or legislator. You are, of course, well within your right to choose to eschew AI byproducts, and I appreciate your point of view, actually discussing it rationally instead of screeching or recycling one liners.

but if I can get just a few readers to realize the physical treats that got ppl grabin there pitchforks then maybe screaming into the void wasn't for nothing.

I know I'm just screaming into the void. I won't go so far as to say my ideas are utopic. Deekseep can ran on some mid-spec laptops, so I know it's possible to have specific use AI running on local servers. But it's gonna take a lot more town hall meetings before we can force other avenues.

And yeah no senators or legislatiors browsing the repo, but if I can get just a few readers to realize the physical treats that got ppl grabin there pitchforks then maybe screaming into the void wasn't for nothing.

 

[RageBurner]

Yes, people should be free to choose, but the burden isn't equal. I am tired of going to town hall meetings, standing next to my neighbors, fighting for our protection from data centers. If we all equally shared the burden and equality gain the benefits, sure. But unfortunately, when a system is driven by unethical acquisitions and inequality, people will fight against AI, include all its benefits, because of the distrust caused by driving systems. I've seen extractive industries invade and destroy my community before. There is a lot of hate toward AI. It acts just like the extractive industries before it. AI can be an amazing tool, but when the driving force is capital, any pro-AI choice will sour my opinion. It's easy to make the choice when its not your land, electricity, and quality of life suffering.

Clarification: It doesn't matter what you use AI for. Creating a birthday card, wedding invitation, or free fan translation for a video game. The only reason you have access and the opportunity to use an AI service is so a rich person can get richer. Currently all AI use is capital drivien, even if the end product is free.

But if the "translators" used there own servers, paid for the their own rising utility costs, I'd be 100 percent on board with AI translations.

[southpawoutlaw]

I'm playing Dragon Quest X and NPC dialogue is AI translated in real time with an API key. If it weren't for the slight freeze for the window to translate, and the fact that pronouns are still complicated for AI to figure out without context, you'd never guess it was a machine. The translation most often reads very naturally.

[Stingrey]

Definitely is a blessing because there's still countless titles that likely will never get English versions otherwise, maybe out of niche and interest or there is just too much text. I'm sure a lot grew up during those years knowing this was reality. But now we can actually get these playable in other languages and it's amazing.

Now it's fine if people don't want to play something translated by a non-human, I totally get that. Supporting the art of translation shouldn't be forgotten. But doing a MTL patch for a several decades old game like this is giving players an opportunity to experience something they likely might never get, and if they do, how many more decades will that take?

[TechBlisSTer]

For those that want to continue playing this and other niche series in English, "machine" translations are a blessing. It's almost like these predictive language models are designed around being efficient at predicting language.

 

[RageBurner]

Honestly good to know this community is more open minded to these and this team is willing to provide the option for those that want it. It's so common to see many forums/discords just outright banning them and piling on anybody that chooses to play them through their own time.

Yes, people should be free to choose.

 

[Stingrey]

Just a heads up, if I hear any of the usual anti AI bleating, I will lock the thread. I don't want to moderate it, and the arguments are known, I don't need reminders.

Thank you for yourefforts, appreciate it.

 

[Gabbobo]

I'm gonna wait for this one to get a proper proofread. I don't know Japanese very well so I can't help on that front but judging from what others have said I'd probably be better off just waiting.

 

[seaglass]

Good, relevant article from Hilltop, who's worked on many translations that have been shared here.
"The very serious part-time unofficial hobby of videogame fan-translation" by Hilltop

This is very much worth a read, as is the comment section on it, which contains some interesting back-and-forths on the subject of localization.

 

[alvercaine]

Not to be off topic but I'm pretty active on the DQX English discord and now is a good time to get into if you're interested, or wait another year. The latest expansion coming out in a month or two is the conclusion to the game's story, with the following patches adding a little bit to it until the finale.

*sigh* how i wish the offline version was true to the mmo and got multiplayer like 9.

 

[HexGramarye]

Great. More AI slop. Pass.

 

[Born To Pirate]

the game is not fully translated all the text you get when pressing ''triangle'' on the menus is not translated

Quite legible from what I've played so far; there's nothing absurd or off.

Thanks, i'll give it a shot at some point, still need to play 4.

 

[JohnnyBushido]

Side note, but I really need to get on DQX. Massive fan of the series and an MMO take on it sounds like perfection.

Oh, absolutely. Given a choice, I would go for a human-made translation. As long as it is done competently, of course.

That being said, when the option isn't there, I don't think we should discard AI translations or lambast them purely because some people tend to do so for vacuous social brownie points. I'm playing Dragon Quest X and NPC dialogue is AI translated in real time with an API key. If it weren't for the slight freeze for the window to translate, and the fact that pronouns are still complicated for AI to figure out without context, you'd never guess it was a machine. The translation most often reads very naturally.

If someone would rather not have a game at all, that's their business. I want my obscure jRPG fix any way I can get it.
