PM’s sent. Lrod, I sent you the regular English subs–if you wanted the “patch” to show the missing alien subtitles in the ROTJ 2.x workprint, the link for that is posted in the ROTJ thread.
The changes for v9.0 (codenamed: “Aaand We’re Done!”), off the top of my head, will be re-timing ROTJ to match theatrical alien subtitles (translated subtitles look funny if they don’t show up at more-or-less the same time as the burnt-in ones). The trick is that DeEd 1.x and the 2.0 workprint don’t use the theatrical timing, so the 8.3 timing actually works better for them. Then there’s a whole new and improved Finnish translation, some miscellaneous improvements, mostly to Portuguese, the long-awaited Japanese SRT file for ROTJ, and also tiny improvements scattered elsewhere. I’ll post a more complete list with appropriate credits once it’s actually released.
The thing I’m waiting for Harmy on is a sample frame showing his new 2.0 subtitles, so that I can do “matching” style English subtitles for them like in the first post. And heck, if Return of the Pug gets released soon enough, I could even write the conversion script for that, so that people can watch it subtitled. But neither of these are dealbreakers for me, and if I have to, the only real problem with releasing what I have right now in its current state is the mismatched alien subtitle timing, which will disappear when the final version of ROTJ DeEd 2.0 is released.
Thanks a lot 😃
