So I'm kinda new to the RoL/RoLo field, however I have been enjoying the game myself so far, and I've noticed there's only one translation project going and it's only for RoLo(if I'm correct).
Normally I'm all for other people doing hard work while I just sit back, wait for a release, and download the new toys. =3
However I've been playing RoL a lot lately and am tired of having to re-read every bit of info on the screen(I can translate katakana and hiragana no problem but I can't read Kanji). So I decided to start on a little project in my free time.
I'm currently in the process of translating AND patching the offline version of RoL(which has it's better and worse moments over the online version), I've really only started this last night and haven't gotten very far just yet, however when I make enough headway, I intend to look for a free webhost or blog site to update my progress and upload patches to for download. I've only decided to post here because I've found this is the only place(to the best of my knowledge) where International/English players are active(?) to the game.
ANYWAY, the idea of this project is basically to make the game a little easier on people who can't read anything other than english and to give me something to do while I don't have a damn job.
The translation will be a live patch, in other words, you will run the game, then the translator, and it will then change the strings from japanese to english. Much like a game trainer, you'd run the trainer, find the game, and inject the cheats, only we're not hacking the game for super 1337 god powaz(admitedly that's what I was doing before I started all this though lol).
Here is a link to a small preview of about 20 minutes work and a fully translated Main Menu(remove the spaces, annoying rules are annoying)

Sorry if I'm not making much sense right now, I've only just woken up and my medication hasn't quite kicked in yet.
P.S. When I feel I'm ready and my methods won't hurt anything server sided, I may start work on a RoLo translation(that is of course if the original project has been disbanded).
