I’ve added the rest of the Shining Force III Scenario 2, Chapter 2 translation. I hope to add more soon! Also, Aspartate just sent me an updated version of the translation for Scenario 3 Chapter 5, section 6, which I’ve uploaded now. Thanks, Aspartate! She also anticipates having some more translation ready in the next few days. Great! 🙂

As usual, there’s a new comic strip (sorry about the poor quality – it’s one I drew *ages* ago, had no time to make one today), MP3 and poll for you to enjoy. You have just under 2 weeks left in which to enter this month’s contest, so get your entries in!

Not much else in the way of updates today, I’ve been pretty busy, but I’ll be adding more to the Scenario 2 script over the coming days 🙂 Oh, and putting the May news in the archive!

I’ve updated the merchandise section, as well as my collection. I hope to add a few new pieces of official artwork soon, and continue work on adding the scripts. There’s also a new button you can use to link to SFC.
My Final Conflict site has been updated with some new downloads (translation & saves) and the Shining Dev site has been updated (and another update is on the way today).

No more replies to the campaign packs yet, but at least the forums are back up and running now to keep us occupied while we wait 😉

Just added another two sections of the Scenario 2 translation. I’ll try to add more tonight if I can 🙂

I’ve added another four sections of the Shining Force III: Scenario 2 script.
Now, for something you probably know about already, but might want explaining. Due to some tension at the forums, I’ve decided to temporarily shut them down. This shouldn’t be for more than a few days, but I felt that I needed a bit of a break from all the hassles I have to deal with there. Not only that, but the mods and members also need a break and some time to cool off. I think this’ll do the community a lot of good. So, if you usually spend a lot of time at the forums, may I recommend that you do something different while they’re down? How about sitting out in the sun for a bit? Playing some games? Visiting friends? … so many things to do! Might as well do them while you’ve got a break 🙂 Here’s hoping you enjoy a relaxing few days. I know I will!

Thanks to everyone who’s already emailed me to say they understand the situation and support my decision. It means a lot to me =D

Well, it’s a little later than it should have been, but the June Contest has now been launched, and the winner of the May contest has been announced.
I should have time next week to work more on SFC’s content, in particular the game scripts 🙂 I’ll work hard to make up for the lack of updates recently.

Oh, BTW – since I was in a hurry to update when I found out about the new Shining game, I forgot to include any links to evidence! Well, this is the only one you’ll need:

Sega’s Annual Meeting

Just watch the video there, it’s got an English translation voice-over on it… about 45 minutes into the video you’ll hear them saying that they already have plans/are developing new games in certain series’… and they list Shining Force 🙂 I can’t wait to hear what feedback they have about the campaign pack I sent them last week! I think it was timed pretty much perfectly!

Anyway, more updates after the weekend.
