Shin Super Robot Taisen English translation
新スーパーロボット大戦 · Shin Super Robot Wars
An English patch for the first PlayStation Super Robot Wars, translating the story and battle dialogue, menus, mission goals and weapon and pilot screens.
What's translated
Story scenes and battle quotes are in English, along with the menus, mission objectives, weapon lists, pilot stats and the unit upgrade screen, and lettering on several screens was redrawn in English. The patch also adds an option to turn battle animations on or off. The dialogue font art is credited to the Lil' Manster translation team.
Build R18 stops the unit command menu from running off the right edge of the screen and keeps the faster loading of the upgrade screen added in R17; earlier builds should not be used.
Before you play
Game Translate says its patches are drafted with AI and then reviewed by hand. The author lists what has not been verified yet: every route and ending, all battle animations, the credits, original hardware and DuckStation. Testing so far was done in SwanStation.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese PlayStation disc (SLPS-00550), following the instructions on the project page.
