Hello my friends,
Been a while since Ive actually MADE a request and not just been fulfilling them for others!.......feels kinda weird. ;D
But I have finally realised that I will never be able to afford (or at least justify to my Mrs) CIB copies of my holy grail games =
1 - Rendering Ranger (over £1000/$1600)
2 - Magical Pop'N (around £600$960)
So, I have located a very passionate sounding and fair priced repro maker in Italy (the only one I can find in the UK is waaaay over priced, and there are nowhere near the amount of repro makers in Europe as there are in the US) and have happily ordered his custom translation cart and boxes for a very very fair (and way below what they go for on Ebay and other places) price.
The only problem being, that as he does this for the fun of it and is not making a major business out of it at the moment......he simply does not have time to locate, translate and make up the manuals for them.
So.......does ANYONE have these at all? even if they are not PAL versions (as the cart and box I am buying are) but perhaps just translated and made up for NTSC-U markets, I can then make them into what I want to match the presumably different colour scheme of my cart and box.
If no-one here has these, perhaps some ideas as to where I can locate them on the tinterwebs..........I have found a great scan of the RR manual but it of course needs translating (can anyone do that???) but cannot find a single thing for Magical Pop'N.
Ohh, and slightly easier perhaps..........but does anyone have a Starfox 2 manual they could scan for me? (preferably the nice the purple PAL version but any English one is fine) as this was the 3rd cart and box I bought from him.
Anyway, enough of the essay!........many thanks in advance and I shall be forever indebted to whoever can help me get rid of the itch that will be a manual-less boxed copy of all these games. :(

I have a magical pop'n manual. It's really thin. I bought it from someone in the uk. I'll try and get you some scans by this weekend.
-
It looks like uncle tusk has finally made some Magical pop'n boxes too.

No sorry. I've never come across an english Rendering Ranger manual before.

Hmmm, interesting..........as I said, I HAVE a really high quality copy of it but no way of translating it.
Might get in touch once I exhaust some other options, thanks dude! :P
-
Do you have a digital copy of it?
-
I have 300DPI scans of the JAP manual that I found online that are pretty good.
I'll up them and link here, should take only few minutes.
-
Here is all Rendering Ranger R2 stuff I found online:

Manual scans good, mini poster OK, box scans crap.
-

Sorry man, been out all afternoon.............and yes, its a really good quality scan.
Its 300dpi and pretty much looks exactly the same as the one Arseen has upped there, thanks for that by the way Arseen.
Is there a way you could translate it Sheep? or do you know someone potentially?
-
No problem as I too want high quality English manual.

BTW I ordered this:

Very nice, did I remind you of the desire to order it? ;D
Are you in the UK/Europe Arseen? as if Id know you wanted it I would have put you in touch with my guy in Italy.
Here is a pic of some of the boxes he has created so far (including my Magical Pop'N and Starfox 2) - although I have convinced him to remove his "100RS" logo from the front and main backs of them, and just put it in the barcode box =

I got all 3 for £97...........£32 each if you have issues with math, lol........but he did do me a discount there, he typically asks for £38-45 each.

Yep I live in Finland.
Nice looking boxes.
I orderd that as it had that nice poster and I wanted the game.
Box quality looks iffy.

I didnt want to say but yeah it does a bit.
Ahh well, youve got it all nice and complete with a cool post too.
I was looking at your Rendering Ranger folder and the manual there is absolutely the same as mine.........even the randon 92dpi images of like the front cover and a couple of others.
Also, do you actually want a much better scan of the box, as I have a nice 300dpi one, or did you collate that potentially for me to use? - if not, you can have this.
-
Edit to reduce :D

Probably same source.
And yes please for the better box scan.
I included all stuff I found with quick search.

Yeah that manual was the absolute only thing I can find......but at least its good quality.
Here is the scan, which I will be making a UGC cover for at some point =

Thank you, that looks excelent.
BTW: Pro tip for making downloading shared stuff faster:
When sharing the link there is word view, change that to download and it bypasses one step for the downloader.
I do forget to do that quite often... ;D

Yeah, I always wonder about that as it sometimes loads up the image, THEN you have to load up the download page.......I always just click "Share" and then choose the display size and copy that link.
Will have a look, cheers......ohh and the front of Legend will be up in a minute.

I've just started to scan the Magical Pop'n manual. I'll send you a pm when I finish.

Thanks man, although I think with shipping........and the fact it wont match the colour scheme of my PAL'ified box and cart.......I will pass.
Just annoying that I have a great PDF of the original manual but cannot find anyone who could translate it.
Also, if anyone has or can scan into a PDF of Starfox 2 that would be fantastic.
