The Retranslation is being finalized in stages, in story order, starting as soon as quequotion (and Hian, if he can) begins work. I'll talk over any changes with Luksy (and sometimes Covarr), sort out any remaining issues (including box positions), and then record that portion to Youtube. Each part I put on Youtube will be at least 1 hour long. I will also update Green_Goblin at the same time.
If there are any other people out there that want to do a Japanese proof check, now is the last chance. Because after this is done, this will be completely finalized forever.

Hi DLPB, I've seen a mistake of context in the field loslake1, when Cloud try to use the stairs and he is interrupted by Cait Sith.
The mistake is when you have Cait Sith in your party. Cloud doesn't answer throught PHS or telephone, so "hello?" is not correct in that context, I am not English speaker, but I understand that "hello?" is when you answer with a telephone. Well that "hello?" is used when Cait Sith is in your party or not.
English:
---TEXT009---
{CAIT SITH}
“H-Hey!”
---TEXT010---
{CLOUD}
“Hello?”
In japanese:
{CAIT SITH}
「ちょ、ちょっと！」
------------------------------
{CLOUD}
「なんだ？」
Literal translation:
{CAIT SITH}
Hey! Wait a minute!
{CLOUD}
What?
Regards

Fixed.
It's because the game shares the same Cloud response and shouldn't do. Other areas like this don't. So this has had to become "What's up?" to work with both phone and person (assuming What's up works in America
). Well spotted.

Other things:
In field blin70_4
Rufus says this:
Rufus
“…That's how it is,Reeve.
Your job is to regulate
the reactor's output.”
One reactor? In the video shows all reactors working besides in Japanese says "mako reactors".
In the field cannon2, Vincent answers to Hojo this:
{VINCENT}
“Hojo…
Rest in peace.”
Japanese:
{VINCENT}
「宝条……
永遠に眠れ……」
Literally translated:
Hojo...
Sleep for eternity...
Rest in peace sounds for me in a funeral, but Vincent hates Hojo and besides in the previous sentences speaks about who should sleep there.
And this text I don't understand the last sentence:
Hojo
“I have been… urgh…
overwhelmed by my
drive as a scientist.”
{NEW PAGE}
“Just as I was back then.”
In japanese says something like:
I lost the last time.
Regards.

The "lost the last time" is too literal and definitely needed amending. The literal does not work and misses the intended meaning. We discussed this at length at the time. Remember that localizing is not an exercise in being literal. It may still need another look regardless.

Rufus
“…That's how it is,Reeve.
Your job is to regulate
the reactor's output.”
That should be reactors' and is now corrected. Thanks it may work better as "to regulate the output of the reactors"
-----------------------------
The other would need input from good Japanese speaker. It's impossible to tell from literal what it is meant to sound like.

R03e is ready but I am waiting to hear back from Lusky regarding a small update to ts. After that I'll upload it. Reunion R04 is basically also ready, pending the update. Of course, the retranslation gets finalized Jan 01 2006 also.

Well, think again. I invented a time machine to save myself having to go through all this. :evil:
Of course, I meant 2016.

Retranslation changes are always ongoing until Jan 2016, but the changes are relatively minor now. The biggest change before Jan 2016 will be boxes placed properly and exclamation marks toned down (they're a remnant from the Japanese game that completely overuses them - so ironically, I am "inaccurately" representing the lines by omitting so many).
The Steam version will be here as soon as Luksy gets back to me. I have no idea when that is.

You're probably thinking of 糞 which literally means "dung/feces" and isn't a swear word (unless it's read くそ, and even then "swear" is pushing it, it's closer to crap than sh*t). ふん just means "hmpf" or "hmm" depending on the context.

OK I discussed with Luksy something that's been bothering me a while
“Today’s command
is ‘formation’…”{NEW}
“Don’t forget it.”
It's never made any sense. Well, it was a tough one:
“Today’s command
is ‘formation’…”{NEW}
“Don’t forget it.”
It's never made any sense. Well, it was a tough one:
Edit. The glyphs and English words are both there, so it's utterly stupid why they used English commands at same time.

Correction to the text:
I have removed the entry where the captain explains why the orders are controller buttons. Other parts of the game (like Barrett's "press X") do not feel the need to tell you why buttons are being named. This is mainly due to the fact that the Japanese game uses English words for the buttons, despite also showing the button glyph. It doesn't transfer correctly to the English game.

This is a reminder that December 1st will be the last call for any proof reading. If none has been started by that time, I'll begin finalizing. I hope to begin sorting any remaining issues including box positions, and there will be no time to wait around. When new year comes, the retranslation will be finalized. Next year, there will be zero corrections. No more pestering Covarr and Luksy. So if you are doing a proof check, it's time to get skates on.

I value my life.”“I finally got orders to join ‘Operation Sephiroth’. I’d even be able to go on a Guernica.”{NEW}“But why break the habit of a lifetime? I’m just gonna ignore them.”{NEW}“I have to live and see the end of the world.”{NEW}“If I’m lucky,I’ll be needed in the new world.”------------------------------“Doesn’t it bother you?
