Shining force 3 rom Patch#

Volunteers joined the effort to create an English patch for Shining Force III, to correct the translation errors in Scenario 1, but more importantly to provide a complete English translation of Scenario 2, Scenario 3 and the Premium Disc (which was only issued to those who sent a proof of purchase from each of the 3 scenarios to the games’ creators, Camelot). Thus the Shining Force III Translation Project was born… With much effort and some assistance from the Saturn hacking community, he was able to develop a program that would allow the Japanese text to be replaced with English. For many years various fans tried to crack the code, with varying degrees of success, but none made a translation possible… that is until early in 2005 when a software developer, going by the name Knight 0f Dragon wouldn’t let the dream die. The game’s files incorporated a sophisticated compression method. The Aspinia Team’s original translation would prove to be the basis for the translation patch effort.įor many years, English speaking fans of Shining Force III dreamed of translating the second and third scenarios, but efforts seemed futile. Their typed translation was made available on Shining Force Central and has been used by fans to understand the events of the latter scenarios, but of course, fans worldwide still clamored for a translation patch. The game script was originally translated to English by a group known as the Aspinia Team some years ago. The Shining Force 3 Translation Project is a fan-based project engaged in the translation of the Sega Saturn game Shining Force III.
