---------- Release Notes -----------------------------------------------------------------> 
         
  Radirgy is a late official release for the Sega Dreamcast from 2006. This is a port 
of the official translation from the Wii release "Ultimate Shooting Collection". That 
translation might've been made for its original intended English release on the GameCube. 

  Radirgy is a shooting game of the "dodge many bullets with your microscopic hitbox" variety. 
It's somewhat beginner friendly in that your ABSnet shield provides a nice break 
from the tension and can often be charged very fast in the hardest parts of the game. 
This is also a game with a heavy emphasis on score. While you can get to the end without
THAT much difficulty, playing for score requires learning mechanics that put your ship actively
at risk. 

--------- Useful Info ------------------------------------------------------------------>

  Patch to a Radirgy.CDI with an MD5 hash of AC88F6A1F2EB0AD8030AD6372C100834. 
Once patched, the hash should be 37F3694829F27215973657436238280C. 

  This has been tested on the NullDC and Flycast emulators, as well as real hardware.
There is no reason for any emulator to be incapable of playing it.

  The text is optimized originally for the Wii's video output AND a vertical monitor, 
so results will greatly vary with a CRT using composite video. I recommend S-Video, or
a nice VGA monitor that tilts easy for T A T E mode gameplay.

  This patch is for a CDI format file, since that's how I play my games on Dreamcast.
The game itself is small, so no assets had to be reduced
in quality in order for it to fit within 700MB.

--------- Translation work ----------------------------------------------------------->

  Around 130 of the game's "mail" messages were dumped from the Wii version. 
I was unable to dump the remaining 20, so I translated and edited them myself
from the Dreamcast version's files. The typesetting is slightly different, but 
these are rare messages to see to begin with. 

  Various menu assets were taken from the Wii version. There is a lot of normal
text that I had to manually hex edit and translate, including:
- Most of the menu text
- All of the save/load messages besides the "your vmu is broken" 
"your vmu isn't inserted" messages (get your act together!)
- High score ranking screen dialogue (from Tadayo)

  I think the logo from the Wii version is bad looking, and it doesn't cleanly
transfer to the Dreamcast version anyway, so I left it out. All dialogue and
menus are entirely in English.
    
--------- Known issues -------------------------------------------------------------->

  The Wii translation is serviceable at best, with many obvious instances of the
presumably uncredited translator not knowing the context of lines. They also mispell
Tadayo's name (she's the cute girl in the beanie!). I'm not particularly good at Japanese 
and don't have the drive to typeset all of the messages required to a professional level
especially since the script to begin with isn't high literature by any means. 

  A few of the rare messages I translated myself may have minor issues in 
scrolling. 

  The rare messages I translated adhere to the Wii translation's sensibilities,
so no attempt is made to emulate Tadayo's verbal trademark in English. 

  High score ranking messages are highly paraphrased due to text limitations. 
If any of the high score ranking messages have improper formatting 
(i.e. the words are outside the text bubble) please contact me.
