Status Update

Right now, I'm working on a tool that will allow me to inject new strings into the ROM so that I can play-test them. Stay tuned for screenshots.

Hello, World

Hi.

I've been working on an English translation of Surging Aura since February, 2010. I'll discuss my lack of qualifications at a later date, but I've already extracted the Japanese strings from the ROM so it's all just a matter of time, really. I intended to keep a journal of my progress but haven't. Today I thought I'd set up a public blog to try to pressure myself to keep a better record of my activity and provide an account to those who've noticed my absence elsewhere on the internet.

Interestingly enough, as I was setting up this blog, I discovered that the French (or perhaps the Canadians) have beaten me to it. This has caused me to amend the planned name of my blog, and leads me to wonder whether there are now other English efforts out there.
