Revenge of the Sith: Rebalanced - <em>Version 1.4 Released! IFDB Approved!</em>
Time

Sure! I’ve sent you a private message with the link.

I left out the chosen one lines because that always felt like a bit much as a whole, same as Hal. I agree Ewan McGregor’s delivery of those final lines is incredible, but I had to cut them to match the rest.

As for the high ground line, it works well as a final demonstration of Obi-Wan trying to mentor Anakin. But in the moment he shouldn’t need to spell out why it’s over. Anakin should have learned by now. I like having the reasoning implied and him instead just turn around and basically be like “well, here we are.”

Revenge of the Sith: Rebalanced - <em>Version 1.4 Released! IFDB Approved!</em>
Time

Hi all,

I’m happy to report that I have finished the initial subtitle pass for RotS: Rebalanced. I have completed the following:

  • MKV subtitles (dialog only)
  • MKV closed captions (dialog and SFX)
  • BD subtitles (dialog only)
  • BD closed captions (dialog and SFX)
  • .srt file conversion to .ass for Blu Ray subs

The fan edit legal disclaimer is at the start of the MKV, but it shows up before the menu on the Blu Ray. So, I needed two sets with different timings.

Next steps are to figure out how to convert .ass to an image based .sup/.pgs format. I tried giving this a shot: https://github.com/subelf/Spp2Pgs but it gleefully gave me an error with the following:

PgsWriter Created.
Unknown exception.
Converting failed.

I’m about to leave on a trip but I can try to figure this part out when I get back.

If I can manage the conversion, then the last steps are to make a new subtitle menu for the Blu Ray. That’s going to be a bit of a pain because I did all the original menus in Cinema 4D with fully custom elements. I’ll need to figure out what I want to use for the menu and then see how to build/compile/mesh it together.

I’ve also made a few minor audio and visual edits that I spotted during the subtitling process. Those will be detailed when I finish.

Feels good to finally be giving this edit the subtitles it deserves.

Hi everyone! My deepest apologies for not realizing people were posting link requests. April 2022 was right when I got hit by COVID, and then because I didn’t check the thread it stopped sending me notifications. I’m just embarrassed I somehow never checked it manually since then.

I’ve sent links to Leovfz, henryt11, hankellard, WinSky, Embers, Toby_Kenobi, and lookitsevan!

Hey friend. I have recently watched Hal9000’s edit of episode 3 and I love it, but I just really don’t think the Palpatine and Yoda fight should have been removed, but rather toned down. From what I read, it seems you share my opinion and was hoping to get a copy of your edit. Could you please share?

Hi Siliconmaster, really keen to check out your edit, any chance of a link?

I’ve sent links to both! (Tadpole39, I sent yours a while ago but forgot to respond here as well!)
