Nice thread, very helpful! ("You must spread some reputation around before...")

There's also an Air Management '96 translation that didn't get finished, which technically makes it a dead project. I have the hacker's files; he made quite a bit of progress but found the process very frustrating, so he abandoned the project and I asked for what he'd done so far, which he kindly provided (data files only, not a burnable ISO).

I'm loving Vandal Hearts on my Saturn and can't wait for Princess Crown

All that's really left with Grandia at this point is the FMVs need subtitles. The latest patch can be found here:

Also here's what the current build of Silver Star Story Complete (MPEG) is looking like:

Keep up the great work and thanks

Very helpful thread.

I managed to install Dragon Force II English on a Fenrir. Wasn't easy, so if anyone runs into trouble, the fix I had was as follows: first play the Japanese version for 1 save file. Then start the English translated version. There are quite a few tutorials out there to patch the game and a couple of patched ISO's but none worked from the get go for me. The English version I used is from rpggamers.fr.

Love the game, finished the Japanese version twice back in the day.
