Update Update Update
I've gone ahead and translated the popup boxes you see during gameplay. Thanks to my friend Konna who did the hard work, missions are now 100% Moonspeak free and thus, essentially, ends my translation project, unless anyone finds any big errors or whatever in it and gets to me. Enjoy everyone.

Some new download links
No update, Sorry fellas. Honestly I kinda burned out on this a while ago. However, I have a LOT of free time coming up so maybe I'll get around to doing some of the story flavor text. Who knows?
Anyway, lots of the original download links have died, the Megaupload one is still running but I know that can be a pain so I'm gonna upload the latest version in a couple places for you guys;
Google Docs
Fileserve
Don't say I never give you anything
Nem
P.S. Hello to my 953 viewers from Belgium, apparently! What are you guys doin' downloading this? Nutters all of you.

Translation Beta Release!
I'm happy to announce that I did INDEED say "Whatev" and finish weapons today. So I'm happy to announce Operation Liberty Freedoms first beta release;

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FWXBRN8Z
If either of these go dead, I'll try and get more links up. If you know of any good hosting sites I could throw them up there too.
As Beta implies, this is just a kinda testing, basic features version of what I'd like to do. But this could be the last release of this project. I've essentially run out of the things I can translate now. There's a couple other things here and there but this will at least mean anyone who gets terrified by the wall of Japanese will now, finally, be able to enjoy this game.
Heres the readme for those far too lazy to click links;
Well first of all, remember this is a supreme Beta Release. There's a lot I didn't bother translating
because its either spoken or I plain couldn't work out how. Check out the videos for more details
if you think you could help. or not. Whatever.
What IS Translated?
Weapons
Most important menus
Item pick ups
Other things here and there. Error messages an the like
This basically means you can play the game and have some idea of what you're doing. I know!
There's def. some problems with the translation. Some of the weapons go out of bounds, I'm
sure that they'll be a ton of grammar and spelling stuff but on the whole, it works.
Now, how to install.
Assuming you can FTP into your Xbox (if you can't, check out Xbox-Scene), then do the following;
Take the contents of this ZIP and extract it on your PC. FTP into your box and go to your
Metal Wolf Chaos folder. go into Menu, then message. Now get the files in this ZIP and upload them
as so;
Item.msg and Weapon.msg go into the Name folder.
menu.msg goes into (you guessed it) the menu folder
put mwc_menu.msg in Char
and game_common.msg in game
That should do it. Your game should be (somewhat) English. Enjoy!
This is really a great game and I wanted more people to experience it so here you guys go.
If I manage to translate anything else then I'll update this package and post a link at the blog.

where you can also find my development blog (hahahaha) and some videos showing off
things like custom skins and strange stuff in the game.

Translation Progress Day 7 (and also Day 8)
Sorry for the lack of Day 6, but I think I made up for it with this;
Oh Nems you studly hero you, how do you do that?
Its actually simple as heck so strap in.
On your xbox, inside MWC should be a folder called Player. In there they'll be a folder called P_001 or something like that. Theres two actually. P_001 should have about 18 folders called TEX01-TEX99. TEX99 is your standard suit, the rest are the unlockables. Make a back up of whatever you want to edit, download the DDS plugin for Photoshop by nVidea and finally, download the contents of that folder to your PC.
Each file represents a section of your robot, Editing is simple enough, just watch out if you make the colors too dark, then the reflection file takes over and makes you drive around in a robot that looks like its cloaked. You can edit the reflection file in much the same way if you want to make life easy.
Save as a 4 Bit file with 1 Alpha bit and then copy back to the Xbox. Tadaaaa.
I'm no skinner or really creative art guy, so I'll leave these instructions for someone a bit more talented than myself.
P.S.
I got Grenade launchers, Rockets and Missiles done too. so that only leaves 3 more categories to go.

Translation Progress Day 5
Progress!
No video today guys, sorry. Spent most of the day working on more important things but I did get around to translating the Assault rifles! some surprises in there and some pretty interesting stories. 4 weapon types down, 7 to go. But I'm 90% sure theres less of the 7 weapon types than there are the others. Might be wrong on that but just a hunch.
At this rate I should be done weapons soon. If I get those images done about the same time, I can call this project as close to done as its getting and release my work. Hopefully I last that long, heh.
Got another lead on the MRB and TEX files which I'm running up later. See ya guys.
P.s
May be no update tomorrow. We'll see.
