We're still one bug away from Alpha Complete. It's a small one and I haven't had time to address it fully. (I've actually been working on a beta feature simultaneously.) Pretty soon.

Things are looking pretty good now. Since I lost my job last week, now would be a pretty good time for the patch to come out. I've got enough money to fake it for a few weeks before I need to get serious about job hunting. Policenauts would be perfect.

I feel the need to come back and congratulates everyone once again. I never thought I'd have the chance to play policenauts. Curious to know if Kojima will comment on it... I am sure he'll be impressed!

..

(any change of a christmas release ? :) )

No christmas releases for you! But maybe next year's christmas will come early? Maybe in the form of a certain translation project being completed...

I'd love to make Christmas happen, but that's really pushing it. I haven't updated because we still have that Alpha bug and Scarboy and I have been making some really great progress on the summaries and telops - we'll keep you posted, but Alpha playtesting has begun and is already yielding results.

We're moving at a fast clip, but I can't commit to any sort of dates yet. I'm done with work through 2008 so I'm in crunch time on it.

We are all going to be indebted to you all!

You know what? Eff it. We're bug-hunting, we're working on features... we're in Alpha Complete, let's face it. This one stupid bug is a known bug we're working on anyway, and the game's obviously in English. So hey, we got telops, summaries, credits, a couple movie telops (they work different from in-game telops)... I'll have to audit how many beta features there are to install and organize the bug list soon.

So can we expect a 'ITS COMING.... 2009' on the official launch site soon? :P

I think it's safe to say I'm all set, though... (just have to read through the PSX emulator faq cause the first time I tried it raw, there wasn't any BG image when I finally got into the game :/)

Do your best, absolutely make sure you do not lose all your hard work. make sure you have backups of backups! And... if someone tries crashing your party, ie. some company might try to pull a fast one over your eyes and make you stop. WELL... You write up on this site as soon as possible, email us. let us know. and there WILL be a flood of supporters in stopping the injustice that potentially could come from some grumpy scrooge.

Well, even if my life would still have a meaning (don't ask which, since we're all looking for that answer) whether the patch gets released or not; I'm pretty enthusiastic about this translation. I hope everything goes just fine from now on... wow... beta stage :lol:

Slowbeef, can you tease us some more with a current snapshot?, the last one (I think) was an already dated video posted like 20 days ago or so.

keep it up, guys!

It's been a long time I wanted to post in this topic to thank the translation team for all their efforts : the opportunity just presented itself !

I did a really short news article about the alpha phase completion in French here.
