Sangokushi V with Power-Up Kit English translation

三國志V with パワーアップキット · Romance of the Three Kingdoms V with Power-Up Kit

A complete machine translation of the PlayStation edition of Romance of the Three Kingdoms V with Power-Up Kit, the only numbered entry of its generation that never came out in English, with redrawn menus and English name entry.

What's translated

damon-daemon's beta puts all of the game's text into English: advisor reports, diplomacy, war and duel messages, the historical events including those added by the Power-Up Kit, scenario introductions, the tutorial and every officer biography. Menus and system messages are covered too, including the editors and the tournament screens. The 500 officers, cities, items and formations are romanized, and names and terms match the same author's patch for the Nintendo DS port of this game.

The patch also redraws the title logo, the main menu, buttons and stat labels with a new English font, adds proportional text with automatic wrapping, and lets you name new officers and items with Latin letters.

About this patch

The author is upfront that this is a full AI machine translation that no fluent Japanese reader has proofread yet, so expect some odd phrasing and the occasional mistranslation. The main screens have been played, but not every battle screen and event has been seen, and some long labels are shortened to fit.

Playing it

Apply the patch to the first track of your own copy of the Japanese disc following the instructions on the project page. Saves from the Japanese game keep working.
