Slayers

Platform: PC-9801

Status: Complete

Current patch: ver 1.0

Based on a translation project originally started by Filler and EsperKnight, with translations by Eien ni Hen. Investigating the game as a prospective project, I came across their repository for the project that had seemed to have been shelved since 2013. They had some tools and the cutscene translations, so I reached out to EsperKnight on the PC98 Central Discord server and asked if I could offer any assistance. With his blessing, I set to work with what they had. Once I got the cutscene translations inserted and working with half-width text, I then turned my attention to the text from the executable itself which had yet to be translated. I reached out again and Filler graciously agreed to translate those while I worked on the hacking side of it. Little did we know that as I worked, I would find several sections of text that were missed in the original script dump, so this part ended up taking longer than anticipated. Thanks to KirinnB's help with the proprietary AIC graphics format, I was able to edit the title screen and other images with Japanese text, as well. I even managed to find and restore some cut content, though sadly it was unfinished.
