Élan Plus English translation
エラン・プラス · Elan Plus
A complete English patch for VISCO's space-station training sim Élan Plus, covering every story scene on both player routes, the mail, the menus, the redrawn graphics and the movie captions.
What's translated
The patch covers the whole game. All 230 story scenes and every choice are in English on both the male and the female player route, together with the free conversations with each candidate, the mail replies, the database hints and the exam notices. Name plates, stats, results tables and the interface text stored in the game code are translated, and the menus, buttons, panels and prompts were redrawn. The prologue movie has new English captions, the monthly exam title cards were redone, and the extras and the staff roll are in English too.
Every ending has been played through, including the eight partner endings and the rare staff endings.
How it was made
waifoof directed the project. The English was machine translated with an AI model (Claude), then revised over several rounds of AI-assisted editing and checked by AI-driven playtesting; the tools and graphics were made with AI help as well. No fluent human translator has reviewed it line by line, so corrections from Japanese readers are welcome.
