@Roman215 Roman215 released this 25 Jul 04:23

This patch marks the translation as fully playable and corrects several
remaining interface, terminology, and speaker-label issues found after 0.1.7.

Fixed

  • Corrected another Dark/Gold Coin casino fragment so the dynamic coin type
    precedes "Coins" instead of incorrectly preceding "Remember."
  • Translated the missing "Items" heading above Rag's Shop exchange-item panel.
  • Rendered equipment-shop affinity captions and values with the compact font,
    keeping every translated affinity inside its comparison-panel row.
  • Restored the omitted Warrior and Divine General race-table entries so
    special Fiends such as Alice resolve race ID 43 as "Fiend" instead of
    decoding adjacent compressed data as garbage.
  • Standardized the demon and enemy names Taueret, Take-Minakata, Okuninushi,
    Hitokoto-Nushi, Sukuna-Hikona, Ouyamatsumi, Corpses, and Hell Biker.
  • Identified the Pixie speaking about Puck by name instead of using the generic
    "Fairy" label.

copies from the Cathedral for Macca. Choose a NO_ENHANCEMENTS patch
to preserve the original gameplay mechanics. Apply exactly one patch.
