I just applied the patch for the first time, and I noticed the main menu is still in Japanese. Is that normal or did I do something wrong?

[DragonSpikeXIII]

Yea, that's normal for v2.0, it'll be translated in the next version.

[reyvgm]

Understood. Thanks for the reply.

[pleasejust]

Hi, was just wondering if there's an ETA for the next version? Thanks.

[DragonSpikeXIII]

Thanks for your extensive detective work and all these details DragonSpike!

Here's the definitive investigative reporting on the subject, courtesy of Krishty. Turns out the difference wasn't just one file after all.

Thanks for the Shout-out, DragonSpike!

My set of extracted Ace Combat files always included a thumbnail handler for PSX TIM files which was rather clunky to set up. I have since improved it, packaged it with an installer, and uploaded it to my site: https://papas-best.com/timthumbnails_en



It doesn’t handle *all* variations of TIM well, but it sure does the trick for Ace Combat. Huge thanks to weissvulf for providing me with test files!

[DragonSpikeXIII]

Anytime, Krishty

I wish that I, in turn, had updates as fresh or as interesting as yours in this here thread but I need to stay focused on getting the next release done.

Surprised to hear that none other than weissvulf lent you a helping hand with your TIM thumbnail handler. My project wouldn't be where it is right now if it wasn't for his patience and generosity two years ago. Shout out to him as well, good to know he's still around.

By the way, you didn't have to thank me here too, I AM monitoring your thread

Is the next version still being worked on?

Yes, it is.

[Canzah]

Yes, it is.

I know it's the usual question of which you must be bored to death by now, but is there any even rough estimate to completion?
I'm asking because I've been holding out from playing the current version in hopes of the new one but if it's very far away I'd just play the current build.

The only people who have been bugging me are the same rats who tried to play me and steal my files a while back. So I'm not bored, I'm living rent free!

Now, to answer your question, there's no estimate of any kind whatsoever. But if I were you, I'd wait. Try v2.0 for a few minutes, you'll see what I mean.

[pleasejust]

Ive been holding off and waiting for v2 as well... if you don't mind, what's left to do?

[Canzah]

Howdy, any updates on this? Hope it's still kicking.

[DragonSpikeXIII]

Yeeeaaaappp, still chugging along.

- Project Update - (as posted on my Project Nemo's Twitter page)

we're in the final stages of checking and fine-tuning the script. I had said back in late 2018 that the script was finished then, but the more I played it, the more issues I found. After two years, I believe it to be (almost) up to snuff.

also managed to translate the credits scroll and make it look decent this time but no success with the BGM fix for M27 and M29, so we may have to release it as "beta" because of this after all, despite the community voting in favor of waiting for a finished release back in 2018;

similarly to the previous point, the lack of success on the hacking front means the subtitles for the "Controls" menu will remain in Japanese. The menu is still perfectly usable as the original game used a lot of English already;

I've also dropped the patch for the AppenDisc due to difficulties in transcribing some parts of the audio from the Original Movie, and also waning interest on my part, but I may still release the fansubbed video separately at a different date once the issue has been resolved;

we have also prepared translations for some of the game's extras, to be included with the patches. "The Analysis of Fighters," translated by @Task_Force23 , is already up on the AC wiki --> https://tinyurl.com/y6cds8kd , courtesy of @Azekthi ;

Lastly, there is still no set release date, but I'm positive the new patches will be released this year.

Thank you all for your patience in this regard, I really appreciate it.
