+ 1-2 minor script corrections thanks to Agent_K64 & wyrdwad, and a rare untranslated string was fixed thanks to ranzor & zaratus.
+ Removed the last vestiges of "YS ETERNAL" in favor of "YS COMPLETE" for the title screen and ending, all thanks to johnnybleu, who recently came onboard the team to help out starting with the Felghana project.
+ If you bought the new Ys I&II Complete bundle from Falcom recently and received a "Version 1.2.4.0 is unknown... This patch cannot help you..." error message preventing you from patching, that has now been fixed. You no longer need to use the "YsII(US)HotFixV100.exe" file I released a while back as a temporary measure to get passed this error.
+ The AVI link for our translated opening video was updated. The old link was broken after the site that hosted it was shut down. Unfortunately, as a result, the patcher would delete your original AVI, leaving it at size zero. This would result in crashes when starting a new game. Needless to say, that behavior was altered. The patcher will make sure it has completely downloaded the new AVI by checking its file size, and it'll rename the old AVI to something else to save it. Also, it'll check my server to see if there's an updated link available should the current one compiled within the patch fail.
+ Added version checking. The patcher will check the server for newer versions and prompt you to download if present. Won't be terribly useful as I don't expect very many updates after this, but you never know. In the quest for perfection to "COMPLETE" the Ys experience, there's no reason to rule out any worthwhile future updates. ;)
+ Added a RTF ReadMe file that's viewable within the patcher pre-installation.
+ Removed all references to the now defunct RIGG/"Retro ISO Gaming Guild" in the game's ending and in the ReadMe.
+ Recompiled installation script with the latest NSIS 2.22 version.
WHY would @XSEEDGames insult me by calling me "Hitler" when I would NEVER call them "Stalinists?" Oh well, I try so hard to be their friend - and maybe someday that will happen! twitter.com/realDona
Just got blocked by @XSEEDGames on Twitter a second ago.. I just wanted to express glee to the jerks for having kept their divisive, poisonous, criminal hands off of the new Ys VIII title & Gurumin, well, they had no choice, NISA poached everything out from under them! Live by the sword, perish by it... It took another ruthless ugly competitor to bring them to justice by taking the Ys series away, that sweet Falcom partnership, which they NEVER deserved!
Psycho Kirsten "omgfloofy" Miller called me a "f@gg0t" on Reddit by proxy with an animated meme! In a recent exchange, she spammed me with this: https://imgur.com/wA Who is Kirsten ? She did work for X.X.XSEED on Ys Celceta and is credited in the Special Thanks section... Don't they get more embarrassing the more you learn ? In the aftermath of the terrorist attack at the Pulse nightclub where 50 people were executed, does dropping "f@gg0t" still fly in so a nonchalant fashion ? Source Link.
Is XSEED [Lame] "Games" waging a "war on women," specifically "little women" ? Do they pander to animated ped0philia-loving perverts ? Man, these headlines write themselves! Hah! Attaboy Tom, thanks for the lulz at least in the midst of all your criminality!
It's been 11 years since I managed a new PC Engine project, but I have indeed returned to the retro console platform I first started the ole fan translation gig with! Finally took the time to mention it here, >> Emerald Dragon <<.
1) Kinda funny, but Ken Berry, Director of Publishing of XSEED Games, did a Facebook block on me some time back... Heh-heh. Guess I should feel honored! That's in addition to Thomas "WyrdWad" Lipschultz of course after I sent him a PM. 2) OK, REALLY LOLOLOL FUNNY, X.X.XSEED Games is under fire by HuffingtonPuffington for what "may be one of the most despicable video games of all time!!!" HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Lipschultz is on the Comments section defending his two-bit, perv, criminal cheat of a company against the author of the blog article to boot, so is even the X.X.XSEED Cock-Flasher, it's a full-on freakshow! More of my thoughts here! Oh lordy, the delicious irony and glee here, I can't contain expressing it!
