Going back to the inital request of pippo. If I understand correctly, BiFi's fix isn't usable on a dsk file you can download on several sites, you need the woomb version for that which was already translated in English. So indeed the biggest question is, who has these woomb versions and is willing to share them For starters, I don't own any woomb versions.

These Woomb translations seem to have transitioned into Mythical Legends on par with Big Foot, Robin Hood, Atlantis, King Arthur and Eskimos...

Max, you got me exited for what's in store. Can we (MRC) have the scoop and make a nice post about it?

Makes me wonder if Woomb would've been more of a success if they'd offered DSKs as well, instead of Windows executables, or if just one person would've bought it and then shared the disk image all over the Net.

Your question can be answered if you remember that Kai Magazine is selling his games offering roms and dsks to its buyers (I'm one of them) and up until now I never saw his newest games being spread around the net. So, I believe that if they sold the dsk many people would have bought it in order to use with real MSXs and also with better emulators than fMSX.

Is Woomb still alive btw?

No, it's been gone for years. Maybe if you kept the installed files around it would still work (I didn't so I wouldn't know).
I still have the manuals (PDF) that came with the games though, they were really well made.

Well, 2006 isn't 2018... so who knows what would have happened.
All we can do ask beg at the owners to republish these translations....
