  1. Good luck with the project. The most important thing about any Fan-TL is the passion for which the team working for it has. I'm assuming you chose this specific VN for a reason along these lines. While this has a decent chance about being picked up in the future, that shouldn't impact your desire to TL it. Again, best of luck and thoroughly looking forward to this.

     If you want to say shit like this about the business types managing the licensing and whatnot, fine, I can see that.

    Pretty much what I was referring to. Sorry for not making it clearer. I'm fully aware many of the labor put it is done by passionate people, several of which started in the Fan TL scene. Also obvious that it is not an umbrella situation for the official TL scene. But the fact this is true of any licensing company, which undoubtedly it is of more than just a couple, is an issue in itself.

  3. Fan TL's are on the decline because so many localization companies have sprouted up, taking up a lot of works that VN consumers are passionate about. But to talk about the quality of releases when so many fan-TL projects are re-TLs of poor quality official releases is pretty comical. As a whole, fan-TLs have always been more polished than their official release counterparts because of the motivational discrepancy. Fan TLs passionately want their work to best represent the novel, official TL's tend to just want to make a quick buck, which is why so many are released with what seems like not even an editing pass from a native speaker and certainly not a TLC.

    What If I said the poll represents an order/sequences of how I would do all characters :). Example: For now; Fukami or Reina will be first/Second., Kisaki 3., Makura and Nagi 4./5. ;)

    The emphasis would still be on who is getting released first :P

    Like someone else said, because this is a when and not if situation and because you work amazingly fast the poll is just a fun thing and only means a week or so of waiting.

    PS: My order would be Fukami-Kisaki-Reina-Makura-Nagi ;)

    About the hentai scenes, how difficult would it be coding-wise to make them run at the points they get unlocked in the story instead of only running them separately from the menu?

     

    Disclaimer: I haven't played this yet as I'm waiting if there's any more progress on the patch or if there's any definitive response from the official side(should come next week if Jacob is to be believed)...

    There would only be one scene in the decensored route that would actually have a place within the story. The rest of the scenes are more-or-less epilogue-ish H-scenes. You need to watch each one to unlock the next and they do have a little story-flow to them on their own.

    In other words, not worth whatever hassle it would be.

  6. I actually think this Gi is getting TL'd much much quicker than Shoku did. It seems he stopped doing TL and edit at the same time and just focused on the TL for now. The real question is if there is going to be a partial patch for each kingdom or if they are only doing 1 patch for the whole game.

    Is this even working?  I have the adult.xp3 patch and put this patch in and went through a skip to test and I did not see a single sex scene even on the Hibiki patch.

    So am I doing something wrong?  I skipped through the entire Hibiki and not once did a see anything beyond bathing.  When I manually choose the H-Scene for Hibiki it's like it's not using the patch2.xp3 as it's all censored with mosaics.

    Pretty sure none of the h-scenes are part of the story, they are all extra content

  8. Just finished the demo. It is fairly well done although in the .56b version I played

    After Leeka swears to serve you and you can choose to killer her, make her a slave or free her, the second and third choices have the exact same results from that point on until the end of the demo.

    Outside of that the quality of art was very nice, the story looks good so far, the music was pleasant and it modeled the type of game you are looking to produce very well.

    My one suggestion is in the backlog, have an extra space between lines. It looks quite cluttered currently.

    My once complaint is that you are only introduced to one of the heroines in the demo, although I am unsure how far down the line the others will become part of the story, it would potentially serve you better to, if possible, continue the demo until you interact with all 3.

    Best of luck and the fact that this demo is around 4 months old makes me all the more curious to how far you have gotten in the game and what the timeline for release is looking like.

    The game progresses in a linear order: In order to process to a new "Route", you have to pass/finish the routes before that.

    @eplipswich

    Btw, may I ask what is "TLC" in the translation progress, and why it usually takes much longer than Editing?

     

     

     

    Editing only looks at the English the TLer puts out and makes it sound more natural that fits the tone of the VN, whereas TLC looks at the original Japanese dialogue and the edited English and makes sure what has been translated fits the original, and if not makes corrections accordingly. So it takes longer looking at 2 languages and making adjustments accordingly rather than looking at one when compared to an editor.

  10. S was without a doubt overbloated, but the A's are fine imo. I mean it's essentially a fandisc split into 5 parts giving stories to side characters while holding onto the MC's awesomeness along the way. I honestly think if S was split up in a similar manner that A was it wouldn't be so maligned. There's just too much in one game that you get fatigued with it less than half way through.

    How's Junai Road in comparison? Is it closer to Majikoi or more like Majikoi S?

    Somewhere in the middle. Ultimately it has quite a few h-scenes, but the common route is fairly lengthy without one. Also there are 2+ routes for each heroine, with no overlapping scenes so that adds to the count quite a bit, whereas most VN's don't have unique scenes in such situations. I mean it isn't Majikoi in quality of writing/heroines, but it was still fairly enjoyable with a solid amount of laughs.
