What's New?

9-20-98 This is it, the final post for "Asylum Translations." Why's it over, you ask? Well first of all, I lost interest in it...I started off totally enthused, but as time went by, I realized there's better things to be doing with my life...this kind of thing just requires more commitment than I'm willing to give to such a trivial goal. I need to move on now, (hell I moved on awhile ago, I'm just coming back one final time to tie up loose ends) and start worrying about my future, not "whether or not I can get the 16x16 font to work in some game." Anyhow, it's been great, what little I did <grin>. Sorry to let those of you who placed hope and faith in us down, but I have neither the time nor motivation to devote to this task, and it's all I can do to hope that someone who can comes along and picks what little bit we've done and continues it. To the group that chooses to do this, I wish them the best of luck...carry on our dream. :)
11-19-97 Necrosaro has joined our ranks, (actually, he did awhile ago, but I'm notorious for being lazy with updates ;p) and from what I've seen of him so far, he's sure to help speed things along. Surely with his help we'll figure out the goddamn 16x16 text crap. ;p
10-27-97 First of, you may have noticed a slight page update, as well as the birth of Asylum Translations. :) Yay, three cheers and all that neat rot. ;p
Okay, the crappy news, the really crappy news...as of 10-25-97, my student account at my college was terminated because I "installed unauthorized software in my home directory (Snestool, X-char, and Esnes [I ran Hex Workshop from a floppy ;p], and with it, virtually all of the work I've done since the last patch...which was a sizable amount, to say the least (I do my Rom editing between classes on the school machines with the Rom residing in my home directory, which no longer exists. >:p) So, before I restart from version 0.015, I just wanna give a nice, loud fuck you to Debra what's-her-butt who works in the computer resource center ;p
10-8-97 I'm baaaack! :) Too bad the update is minor...but rest assured, the pace will pick up from here...help has arrived...
9-9-97 The first patch has been released with an English 8x8 font, 16x16 (mostly) font, translated menus, and partially translated spells / battle commands, so go push your face in and suck! :)
Also, I fixed a small error on this page with regards to Mystic Ark's location. It's at Epn's Mouse Club, NOT Snesmerism (Actually, it is at Snesmerism now) ;p   I made other minor fixes, too
9-5-97 Helpful resource links added to curb annoying questions that're sure to come
Half of the font has been converted, but I won't release a patch until a FULL english font set exists in the game and a few menu commands are translated
9-4-97 Project started
Mystic Ark translation project homepage created
