#####################################################################

This is my first hack. I specifically chose this game due to the fact
the script is stored in plain ASCII; thus there's no need for messy
tables et al.

This project started many time ago, 4 or 5 years. I spent 3 years to
locate someone willing to translate this for me, when Eien responded
to my advertisement in romhacking.net. Eien translated it from a
table with the Japanese text and the official English translation
that was given to me by Daniel Reyes. After that I kept this project
as a hobby, slowly re-adding the text back.

There was no need for a messy rom expansion, as there's a big empty
area that kept part of the Japanese font. Since it is not used in the
English release, I just put the extra text there.

At the same time, I will soon be releasing a document detailing all
you'd need to hack the text of this game.

This IPS file is based on the Beyond Oasis (4) [!].bin file. The file
I used had a size of 3,145,728 bytes.

THIS MEANS YOU MUST APPLY IT TO THE ENGLISH VERSION OF THE GAME.

I reccomend Lunar IPS ( http://fusoya.eludevisibility.org/lips/ ) to
apply the patch.

There are two known bugs and a warning.

I have not found a way to make the intro last longer, thus the last
line of text disappears VERY quickly. It is readable as long you're
a fast reader.

In the Japanese version, the lines "What dangerous times these are!"
and "I was so scared!\nI won't go out alone again." are said by two
different women in the village after you defeat the initial ambush.
In the English version, they were joined in a single line. I cannot
change this, sadly. It's minor, but it is something that delayed the
release for a long time.

Less importantly, since the retranslated text was substantially
bigger than the original, I had to overwrite an area which was blank.
Thus, I cannot assure the game will not crash. Me and two betatesters
have finished the hack successfully, so hopefully you will be able to
as well.
