Black/Matrix + English translation
ブラック・マトリクス・クロス · Black/Matrix Cross
minhnhattonthat's AI-assisted English patch for Black/Matrix +, Flight-Plan's Japan-only PlayStation tactical RPG, translates every route and subtitles the movies.
What's translated
The patch covers the dialogue and narration on every route, the menus, items, skills, help text and in-game manuals, the chapter and battle cards and the staff roll. Every spoken line in the movies has English subtitles. The name entry screen opens on a Latin alphabet page, with the kana pages still available. The voices and songs remain in Japanese.
Status
The translation and its tools were produced by minhnhattonthat with extensive AI assistance. Every scene was checked through debug jumps in an emulator, but nobody has played the game from start to finish yet, so a few windows that only appear in a full run have not been seen. Start from a fresh boot rather than an old save state from the Japanese game.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of both Japanese discs, following the instructions on the GitHub page.
