Hi guys, I've a huge hype with  Reunion 2. Keep working hard!

By the way, some spanish guys finished their "retranslation" but there's no way to include it in your Because mod right? (sorry I really know nothing about modding FFVII).
 
Hey bro congrats on finishing the RO1 and getting RO2 finished soon.  Glad to see all your hard work is about to payoff and all those others that helped you.
 
Spoke to Luksy, he's gonna try to get on at some point during the weekend and then we'll try to wrap this whole thing up and put it to bed.  I'm confident that this can be achieved in 2-3 hours of work time.

I'm going to bite my damn fingernails off.  This mod is soooooo close!!!   :mrgreen:

Good thing I have all of the FF8 mods to keep me busy.
 
Luksy busy but having some time off soon, so hopefully I can borrow him for the needed 2-3 hours.

I spoke to Covarr about the line marked.  I don't think we ever reached a conclusion on it.  So if anyone knows if it's grammatically correct, let me know.  I've added this because there was confusion with the original line.

Are you talking about the capitalized 'W', or about placing the question mark inside the quotes? I don't know about the former, but the latter is called "logical quotation", whereas the alternative is called "typesetters' quotation." Wikipedia has a good article explaining the usage (and why they prefer logical quotation): Logical quotation on Wikipedia. I prefer logical quotation myself.

For what my opinion may be worth, I find the marked line grammatical. The following pages uphold parallel examples. To be fair, several of the pages also uphold the "American style"/"British style" delineation which the above Wikipedia article endeavors to erase. I'm sorry I don't have the experience to say what manual of style may have standing among British persons, but I have some non-specific recommendations, professional interpretations of one minor and three major American manuals (so marked by me) and lastly a listing of seven different manuals. All of them (including the one listed as disagreeing with the others in the discussion!) [edit: I had badly edited this sentence in the original post] seem to me to agree with the line as written being sound.


Place a question mark or exclamation point within closing quotation marks if the punctuation applies to the quotation itself. Place the punctuation outside the closing quotation marks if the punctuation applies to the whole sentence.

If a statement ends in a quoted question, allow the question mark within the quotation marks suffice to end the sentence.

When a direct question occurs within a larger sentence, it takes a question mark. Note that in the examples below, the question mark supplants the comma that would syntactically belong in its place.

Question mark or exclamation point (part of quoted material)

The Dream Questionnaire items included “How often do you remember your dreams?” and “What do you most often dream about?” We found intriguing results.

When a quotation ending in a question mark or exclamation point ends a sentence, no extra period is needed.

Question Marks, Exclamation Points
If the quote itself ends with an exclamation mark or a question mark, include it inside the quotation marks.

Here's a quote: "Will not a righteous God visit for these things?"

Here's the quote used in a sentence: When Douglass asks, "Will not a righteous God visit for these things?" he raises the question of doubt about the future salvation of the "Christian" slaveholders (32).

Thanks for that! The thing is, Barrett is quoting himself and what he himself has just said. I wondered if the rules were different there.
 
Well, hi. :)

I've finished the game a few days ago and, since I don't want to replay it right now and I am a bit helpless with modding (more like I'm not interested in this stuff), I was wondering if there is a downloadable file with the whole script -- or scripts, one with the literal translation (as done by Luksy) and another with the localised one.

(I've read the whole topic to see if it hadn't been posted before, but I couldn't find it. I apologise if you actually did do so...)

If not, thanks for all the hard work you've put into all this! :D
 
Yup.  I am waiting for Luksy to get time and motivation.  We are around 2 hours away from full completion, but can't do a thing without input :)
 
I've been lurking on this thread ever since late August when I thought a release was going to be imminent.  I'm sure I'm not the only one.  Any chance Luksy just bailed?  Also is there anyone else who can do what he does to finish this release?
