tl;dr

Just go with Flan Lady, it's as close to flan-hime as you're going to get.

If you want to be 'actually' localized it should be 'Lady Flan'.

But i like Flan-hime because any anime viewer or manga reader eventually learns it through osmosis.

Mmmm... Lady Flan does have a good ring to it. It would fit the tight spacing, and is a proper name that sometimes they call a Princess. I like Flan-Hime too but I can see why others would not.

Though, I still don't think it's the best idea, I'm starting to come around to Flan-Hime.

What about Flan Queen?

I'm kinda surprised no one's gone with the joke and asked about Royal Flan.

Anyway, I'm for both Flan-Hime and Lady Flan. Both are equally great.

That.... would be amazing actually. I'm old enough for that to be funny (Flan is actually really disgusting imo, and i always cursed spain and france for inventing them and America for turning it 'affordable' when i was given one back then - especially the disgusting caramelized sauce varieties).

Horchata on the other hand, it's a tragedy it isn't popular outside of spain and mexico (not surprising considering the nuts cost).

I don't understand the joke but I'll take your word on it. I'm on the fence with either Royal Flan and Lady Flan.

I also realized I didn't change Package to ring in the Mist cave so there will be an update soon. Just need to figure out what name to go with.

I ran into this spacing issue in Troia Castle. Could there be even two here? I see the punctuation, but between blessings and of, that space is a little long.

Thanks for pointing it out. I'll have it fixed in the next revision.

About a year ago I pointed out a blank chatbox in the library in the Feymarch. Has that also been fixed?

I'm looking into making a physical copy of FF4 with this patch, so I'm kinda waiting for the ultimate version.

That was corrected promptly afterward so it's been quite some time since I fixed it. It was an extra line space that caused it.

is it just me or isn't "recieve" supposed to be spelled "receive" ?

Good eye! When I correct that line, that will be fixed as well.

Comma after "Epopts" doesn't need to be there either, from what I can see.

Chronosplit · « **Reply #474 on:** November 15, 2018, 12:54:37 pm »

I have a strange bug, and I'm not sure what has caused it. My MagmaKey is gone and I can't go any further in the game.

What happened was last night I saved outside Agart right before putting it in the well, and I had turned off the game during the first talk with King Giott. When I loaded up my save today, poof!

Is this a known thing with FFIV in general? SNES9x perhaps? Anyone have a way around this? This has never happened to me before.

EDIT: Disregard, I did a dumb thing. Fixed-o.

EDIT 2: One thing though, King Giott refers to airships oddly. "the ships your mech-flies" is kinda left field. Is there a typing error (are the soldiers the mech-flies? Is he referring to Cid as short for mechanic, but the hyphen shouldn't be there?) in there or is this a reference?

vivify93 · « **Reply #475 on:** November 15, 2018, 04:28:53 pm »

That would be on me. The whole line, in Project II, is "That's the name of your mech-flies?"

I thought it would be strange for Giott to know what ships are in the first place, 'cause aside from the airship dock in the Dwarf Kingdom (Why is that there, by the way?), there's no evidence that the Underworld has any idea of what ships are, much less airships. I assumed he'd know what machines are (Tower of Babil) and he'd know what flies are (Flying enemies in the Underworld), so he'd call them "mechanical flies". There wasn't enough room for "mechanical", so I shortened it to "mech". No errors at all.

Chronosplit · « **Reply #476 on:** November 15, 2018, 04:54:01 pm »

Aaaah, I see then. Project II's line makes more sense. My quote came straight from Namingway, so maybe a comma should be added at least?

Digitsie · « **Reply #477 on:** November 15, 2018, 05:03:17 pm »

I have to admit, I don't see how a comma would help 'the ship your mech-flies'.

Seems more like you want the line to read 'That's the name of your flying contraption'?

space is an issue and the line (in project ii at least) is "That's the name of your mech-flies?" nothing about a ship is stated

rodimus is free to change it to whatever he'd like, of course. i'm sure there are better ways to convey it.

Managed to grab a screenshot:

Yeah, looking at it closer I definitely think the word "ships" is the anomaly here.
