    Thanks for the answer.

     

    The project isn't alive, per se. I had moved onto being the project lead for Alka Translations and working on things such as Angel Beats, Miazora Fine Days, Summer Pockets Reflection Blue, etc. But now that I'm no longer part of the team, I'm certainly interested in trying to reignite interest in putting together a different team for this once I actually have the time to do so. And if so, I'll be sure and update things here!

    Finish summer pockets first, lol

    We've already got another translator working on that. They just won't be able to work on the next project, so that has nothing to do with this, really.

    Understanding Japanese is all well and good, but you should probably aim for someone who knows english well enough to write prose as well as that.  You'd be surprised at how many people with a knowledge of Japanese who are barely literate in English, despite being raised speaking it.

    That's actually what I'm here for. I'm the Editor/TLC and I've got experience enough with both that I make things make sense in English without straying too far from the original text.

    Mate you should look up the definition of fluent because it has very little relation to what you're actually asking for

    Yeah, a lot of people seem to be pointing out the N2 requirement. The team told me to ask for N2 but I'm beginning to wonder if that's really necessary.

    I just played a little bit of it last week. Did you guys find/develop proper tools for it? I saw it uses Reallive and that's one of those pain-in-the-ass engines to work with. Btw, you should use the standard edition: https://vndb.org/r1758

    It has more content, I think.

    I can't offer help with translating, though. I am pretty much interested in Snow myself, so I hope you guys succeed.

    We thought about that, but figured it'd be better to just do the Plus Edition at first, for the core Snow experience, and we'd do the fandiscs if this became successful! Fandiscs included for a first project are rather ambitious. So thank you, if this succeeds, that's one of the next things on our list! 

  6. Hello friends! This is newly formed translation group Snowy Ryujin TL, and we have decided that after 18 years of going untranslated, we're gonna try our hand at developing a fan translation of the Studio Mebius VN, Snow

    My name's Rinny, and you might recognize me from being the Project Lead & Editor for the Summer Pockets, Angel Beats 1st Beat and Miazora Fine Days projects. If there's one VN I've been absolutely dying to not only read myself but bring to English ever since I entered the VN scene, it's this one.

    The Visual Novel:

    "The story of Snow starts when the main protagonist Izumo Kanata visits a small village called Ryujinmura (village of the dragon god) to help his cousin Tsugumi manage a local hotel with hot springs. In the village there is an old legend: In ancient times, the village is protected by the dragon goddess. However, one day the dragon goddesses fell in love with a human, which is strictly forbidden, and this incident finally caused the village to be always covered by snow after that. The game then tells the daily life of the protagonist in the village, and finally links the story to the legend of dragon goddess."

     

    The Project:

    Snow is a Nakige released way back in 2003, and has gained a bit of a reputation as an enigma. Many who have played it claim it is good, some even say one of the best, yet all these years later it is not only hard to acquire, but there's been next to nothing on any sort of fan translation. We aim to change that. This translation will also be of the "Plus Edition" of Snow, which contains full voices and an extra route. This is an 18+ version of the game.

    Team Members:

    The squad currently consists of myself, Mhmd, Takafumi and Waffletown. I'll be leading the project, handling PR and updates, as well as assisting with QC and text editing. Mhmd will be handling the translating, though we're absolutely open to more potential translators joining up to split the workload, since it's a big VN. Takafumi is our fearless image editor, as he's got plenty of RLDev and photo editing experience, and Waffletown will be handling the first run of QC and text editing.

    Progress:

    Overall - 5394/78154 || 6.9% Complete

    Common Route - 5394/13726 || 39.29% Complete

    Asahi Route - 0/10054 

    Sumino Route - 0/9922

    Legend Route - 0/8034

    Shigure Route - 0/10744

    Ouka Route - 0/15683

    Meiko Route - 0/9991

    Recruitment:

    Right now, we're open to a second translator joining the project, but for now, we're all set! 

    Contact Info:

    If you have questions or wish to join the project, you can message me here or contact me at LegendaryNoCon#0558 on Discord! The latter method is much more preferable, as I have the mobile app and will therefore be able to talk with people both at home and away. Right now we're only looking for anyone who might like to join as a second translator, so if you're interested, hit us up!
