[Announce] English translation for Gensouband v2.0.0

[Cryomaniac]

Shoggoth message was actually like that in original Hengband, though it was correct in Zangband; fixed it.

Will look into Haunted House message later; the reward is getting access to your home in Former Hell town.

[Van]

Got two more:

I got this message while fighting a shoggoth:
The Shoggoth says, 'barrels towards you horrifyingly.'

Haunted House 2.0 didn't have any completion text. It seems like the reward was a potion of intelligence that found its way into my inventory, but I am not sure.

English translation for v2.0.5 out; notable changes involve adding Hatate's building to Tengu Village (can help you look for unique monsters) and Kappa general store to Myouren Temple.

Thanks for pointing out, fixed.

Some typos and translation issues:

There's a unique enemy named Hong Meirin, but when you see her at the Scarlet Devil Mansion Gate her name is spelled Hong Meiling instead. The latter seems to be what most translations in other games go with.

The Logrus Master and Friends has a line that starts with "They're perform suspicious rituals"

One of the rumors contains the line "He's unbelievable powerful for a dark elf."

[Cryomaniac]

Yes, class/race resistance won't stack with resistance obtained from equipment.

[Van]

Cool. I take it that personal resistances are essentially treated as equipment resistances, eg holy resistance from a class won't stack with holy resistant armor? And thank you for the translation.

[Cryomaniac]

Do you know how resistances and weaknesses stack for different classes stack? I'm playing a crow-tengu shugenja, and tengu get a weakness to holy attacks, but shugenja eventually get holy resistance. Do they cancel out or does one override the other, or what?

Resistances and vulnerabilities stack; you'll take less damage than if you'd been neutral to holy, but more compared to being simply resistant without a vulnerability. To be more specific: Crow-Tengu takes 33% extra damage from holy attacks, being resistant cuts the damage in half; you'll end up taking 66.5% damage.

[Van]

This variant seems pretty good. An insane number of races/classes/player characters and the reflavoring works well overall.

Made a spreadsheet summarizing the ladder dumps + comp winner for scores etc at a glance.

In-progress or quit characters have been skipped.
Tried roughly guessing turncounts, which will be very inaccurate if time stops are involved. (The ladder "turncount" column corresponds to play time)

Not sure what could be going on; could you provide a savefile?

Unfortunately the character has long died so I don't have a save. But if I run into it again, I will share the save file then.

[Cave Man]

I only took about 2 months to report the bug, and you took about 2 minutes to fix it. Now, where's the message icon that simultaneously expresses gratitude, awe and embarrassment?
