    Usually, you don't let translations hinge on the efforts of one individual, though.
    In "best case" scenarios, you have a person who's fluent in the source and target language (preferably with target as their native tongue and some sort of relevant experience on the content or translation front) and then you let that person do the first draft, whilst communicating with someone familiar with the source content, and then you pass that first draft on to a secondary individiual with a similar background and let him/her do rewrites of the text where needed. Then you pass it back to the original translator for some sort of approval or to see if they both agree that the changes are for the better.

    Since it's software, you'd also want someone to go check that all of it also "technically" works in context (and that the translation is also contextually correct) - wrap up any and all mistakes in whatever ways possible and then you call it a day.

    It crashes like mad but it's beautiful. Can't wait till the teams other releases.
    Shame it wasn't released under better circumstances. Read Zork's post in the link for more info

    If you guys want to talk more about it, I suggest heading over to THIA. News is a bit slow around here for 1.5.

    It's a shame some profit seeking prick forced such a buggy release. I hope this puts an end to all the fraudsters with their doctored JPEG's while we wait for the final. Again, thanks to the team working on this. :)

    This is absolutely mind-blowing! Doesn't seem real, but seeing as people appear to be playing it already, I'm guessing it's no joke.

    Random question: Does anybody know how to get this working on a PSP with CFW? I had great fun playing the Bio1 beta versions like that and would love to do the same with this too.

    I converted it using Popstation and assigned the Biohazard Disc 2 ID. Works fine.

    Just had a go using my chipped PSX, interesting for those who've been waiting for this for 15 years or so, not so much for those looking for a new old skool resident evil experience. The game is buggy as hell (as expected) as mine has crashed 4 times (hard reset needed on PSX) in about 7 minutes ranging from just going through certain doors, to trying to inspect things. I've also heard firing weapons is problematic as well though I haven't been able since leon starts with no ammo and elza has no weapon.

    I've not fiddled with the debug menu (didn't know there was one), overall interesting like I said, but for those waiting for a proper experience, stick to the youtube videos for now as there's nothing new here that I can see or chuck a copy at an emulator. Using actual hardware at the moment seems a bit laborious.

    Nice work by the team for getting something out there, maybe this will shut the fucking lunatics up once and for all (we can hope).

    Okay, I just blew a zombie in half with the shotgun, and the top half still tried to get me!

    Besides the eBay auction, what did this Colvin do after disappearing that made them have to release it now? I don't get it, really.

    But ah well. :) My question now is, is this all the content of the vanilla build + some of their extras, or is it stripped down from the vanilla build, kinda like getting a preview from a demo disc? Kind of confused about that.

    Anyway this is not the Resident Evil 1.5 "fixed" or "original version".

    We can download now the Work In Progress Build "Magic Zombie Door" version.

    Resident Evil 1.5 is not (fully) leaked, like say NeoGaf.

    We have to wait for the "MrBzork version" and "original version".

    Anyone know if this build has language options? Any button that's supposed to change the language? Can't figure anything out.
