Dragon Quest 6 Translation by NoPrgress
=======================================

This is my second release.

The included .ips file has been specially designed to correctly patch
both the original ROM and the 33% patched ROM released on 11/20/2000.
It will not work on ROMs patched with any of the DeJap .ips files. If
you're not sure which patch you have, apply it to an upatched ROM. 

Any natural saves (Imperial Scrolls) from the 33% patch will work with
this patch, and real-time saves wandering about should still work.
Real-time saves in battle, or where dialog or menu windows are on the 
screen will probably not work. 



To the best of my knowledge, there are five issues/bugs:

* Backing out of the Info->All option sometimes crashes the game.

* Backing up through the equip windows makes the arrow disappear and
  sometimes crashes the game.

* Using a battle spell/skill where you have to target an enemy/group,
  the spell/skill window behind the enemy list disappears.

* You start out early with 'Remember', and later gain 'Remember More',
  'Forget', and 'Unforget'. I *have not* used any of these memorization
  skills, so I don't know how accurately they are working (or 
  translated). 

* Many of the skills (especially in the higher classes) have not yet
  been translated. They are still fully functional, but will have
  names and descriptions that are just IDs.

I have fixed the "Sack" not re-highlighting bug, and the bug where
Tactics->Equip sometimes incorrectly labelled equipment as "Cannot".



This patch *should* be fully playable up until the hero has collected
the legendary equipment. There is a lot of world to explore, and it
is possible that I may have missed a few minor points. Don't worry - 
anything that I did miss is not necessary to the storyline up to the 
end of the translation. As mentioned above, some of the skills for 
some of the classes are not translated, but still functional.



Here are the current translation stats:

Dialog text:     ~75%
Battle text:     ~50%
Menu/item text:  ~75%


Overall, I'm about 3/4 done. Enjoy.
