LotrK 7

I’ve been busy! The names of the river areas have been translated (e.g., the various streams), the monster names are added. You can actually complete a whole battle in English now. I still have to do the food item names for the Eat menus, though. The fishing menu and information is in English, but fish names are still unfinished.

My english table now has the register values named (e.g., B1=<enemy name>) so I can toss the variables around. I need to find out if text is referenced absolutely (likely) or by relatively so I can edit and expand it easier. There’s too many abbreviations (like Gr.Snake for Green Snake).

That’ll be all for today. If you have any suggestions for making the game look more professional, let me know–aesthetics are important too!
