assuming the continent *is* the zemuria that we know (and not some parallel version of it), the conditions at the end of this game (only one moon, but fully accessible planet) could only mean:
- this game is in the distant past of other games (before Great Collapse)
- humanity eventually returns to its old problems and cause another disaster, the Great Collapse
- this game is in the near past of other games (after Great Collapse)
- needs to be distant enough that worldwide abnormal weather, rocks falling from the sky, and disappearance of the second moon become overshadowed by other events, like the Orbal Revolution or multiple wars, and for star shards from Terra to become extremely rare
- not much of the new area is made known before humanity falls back to its old problems and End of the World returns or something to prevent people from exploring the rest of the world, threatening another cataclysmic disaster
- if this game was in the distant future of other games (i.e. other games are before the Great Flood), more than one continent should exist and be accessible
- if this game was in the near future of other games (i.e. other games are after the Great Flood), there should be [two moons visible in the sky](https://i.imgur.com/b2SXfaI.jpg)

##Patching Instructions
1. Download an xdelta file from latest [release](https://github.com/dackst/nayuta/releases). Choose clean.xdelta to apply the patch to an unmodified Japanese ISO, or choose 4_15.xdelta to apply to an ISO patched with version 4.15 of the previous fan-translation.

2. Apply your respective xdelta patch to your respective iso. If on Windows, the easiest thing to do would probably be to use [xdeltaUI](https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/598/).
Otherwise, if you have xdelta3 installed elsewhere, you should also be able to run something similar to this with the desired filenames swapped in:
* Clean Japanese ISO : `02adefbdef8197cca872268d5c01b277`
* ISO patched with flame's 4.15 release: `6cc975153b7998db4242baa17eb8d276`
* ISO patched with this current release: `9c829d2b6d90e6fc5830fbb926e1ed96`

##Known Issues
###Issues in this version
These issues don't seem to exist in the original 4.15 fan translation release. I think they may be due to problems with the released tools? See [here](./notes.md/#why-not-just-use-flame's-tools-directly) for more info.
* unable to speak to Mishy
* before the start of chapter 5, he can only be successfully spoken to on the cape in chapter 2

* unable to speak to Mishy at some points
* before the start of chapter 5, he can only be successfully spoken to on the cape. Talking to him seems to work at every ocassion after the start of chapter 5.
* The new game+ sidequest involving Mishy starts partway into chapter 5, so it is unaffected. However, the special Mishy achievement requires talking to him at every opportunity, so that achievement is unable to be completed.
* If you really want to have a go at that achievement, you can save whenever you find Mishy, and reload with a clean/4.15 patched ISO to talk to him.
* there are some extra stray lines of text in Japanese when reading the tablet at the end of Volans' sidequest.
###Issues from original fantranslation that I don't know how/care enough to try to fix myself
* boss and new area intro graphics still untranslated
* some text during final boss encounter is still untranslated
* erasing save data from in-game menu doesn't work
* there is some strange text spacing in certain spell descriptions
* there is some strange text spacing in some longer spell and item descriptions
* long achievement names are cut off in the notification box when unlocking them, e.g. "<armor of anhillat"
* the achievement notification box is tiny. I'm not willing to butcher the names further in order to make them fit
* characters that use idiosyncratic manners of speaking in Japanese probably still don't here
