[PSX] Final Fantasy VII - Beacause Retranslation R04c (2016) [NTSC-U]
==================================================================
Two .reg files are included to apply recommended settings for the emulator (ePSXe).
Run these before loading ePSXe. Change resolution from within if desired.
ePSXe emulator + necessary files included.
The latest version of ePSXe can load .PBP isos directly.
PBP files are basically compressed PSX isos, originally used to run PS1 games on PSPs.
You can open the Gamelist window by clicking on the ePSXe banner in the GUI window.
Additionally, you can get Retroarch and download the Mednafen core (Beetle PSX). This core provides cycle accurate emulation.

====================
Beacause
by DLPB and Luksy
====================
Beacause is a Final Fantasy VII relocalization. It is a complete retranslation and relocalization
from the ground up, based on the original Japanese. The aim is to have an end product that
is accurate and professional. Official sources have been used to minimize errors in context
and spelling. The project's name "Beacause" comes from a misspelling (in the original
localization) of the only line spoken by Jenova.
KEY FEATURES
Translated and localized from the ground up.
All text updated.
Some unused dialogue reinstated.
Two Scenes, accidentally missing in original game, reinstated (Gongaga, Corel Bridge).
INFORMATION
Issues:
=======
* The original English localization suffers from errors in grammar, spelling, context and
translation.
* A lot of the errors point to a rushed job due to little communication with the original
authors.
* Many of the errors miss out on specific references to people, places, and mythology.
* Some errors alter the plot; a few, severely. Some errors have been adopted as canon
by SE, and some have been modified in later media.
What we have fixed:
===================
* Items, spells, places, monsters, and characters for which we have good evidence as
having been incorrectly translated, or modified for a western audience, have been
restored.
* All dialogue checked for translation/context errors and modified as necessary.
Grammar/spelling mistakes in the dialogue have been fixed.
* Any error that has been adopted as canon does not preclude it from being changed.
What this project isn't:
========================
* A literal translation from the Japanese.
* An attempt to rewrite or warp any of the game's original content.
* An attempt to prove that we somehow know what the original authors wanted for
every single byte in the game.
