    Roach reacted to Darklord Rooke in I feel like I've gotten sour about VNs in the west   
    A fairly obvious conclusion. Considering for several years the Western scene was the primary place Western otome fans could get their fix, due to translators refusing (for the most part) to localise otome because they want to localise fap-worthy nukige crap instead, you're also being a little unfair. Most Western VNs (apart from the obvious) are otome because most translators refused to bring those sorts of games over, and thus a budding industry formed because there was a gap in the market.

    Today, I will bring some important Bad News to share with you guys...
    - As of today, January 23, 2016, I can confirm now that there is no way to get Sakurasou No Pet Na Kanojo to run on the PS Vita as their new firmware update patched the homebrew exploit.
    If you still own a PSP, or have a PSP Emulator (PC), it looks like the only option is to use either one of those 2 supported once we roll out our patch in the future.
    - My recorder that I use to showcase the game translations has been giving off more distorted video scenes. I'm not sure if its within the firmware or my cables going weird..
    Anyways, putting the bad news aside, the good thing is...
    We are close to achieving 25% of translations finished! (There's lots of scripts to translate XD)

    あけましておめでとうございます! みんあさんはおげんきですか。
    Translation: Happy New Year! Is everyone doing good?
    I hope everyone is in fact, is doing good this year! Because we, Eteranal Nyaboron, have a goal set to accomplish for 2016, which is to finish translating the entire game and create a patch for people to play! Although it will be a long and tough journey to reach our goal, we would like everyone to please help support us on the road to translating Sakurasou No Pet Na Kanojo!
    Also in the meantime, we would like to announce that we have some new additional staff members who will be finalizing the text we have translated, so we won't have any "engrish" issues reported by people who will play the game.
    Anyways, there's been plans to MAYBE switch or change up the website again, but nothing in action will be taken yet. We will try to keep everyone and anxious players to play the game in English updated!
    Stay Tuned!

    I'm glad I was able to be of some help.
    Please let me know if you get any applications! (I really hope you do) Hopefully you'll be able to get some people who can properly devote some of their time to the project without disappearing.
    I'll admit when I read some of the VN's I patched with a fan-translations/restorations, I felt a little uncomfortable reading the H-scenes. I also noticed that the quality of the writing in the H-scenes dropped considerably compared to the quality of normal scenes in the VN's I've read so far, which bugged me a little, ahaha! Even though I'm not really into the H-scenes, I'd be more than happy to QC them just like I would with normal scenes. The way I see it is, if you're going to Quality Check, you have to be prepared to do everything, even the H-scenes. I would make sure the quality of writing is consistent with everything including the H-scenes.

    Since I'm feeling a bit lazy today, I'll simply content myself with posting the two blog posts we recently made :

    Some of you might have noticed that I have finally updated the front page, with new screenshots and info about the upcoming release, that we decided to call "Inciting Incident". We're getting on greenlight soon through Sekai, so I'm probably going to post something again relatively soon!

    Roach reacted to tymmur in Announcement: Data Loss & Forums Rollback   
    As I read it, the goal isn't to move to a new server software, but rather to get something, which can be backed up easily and have minimal risk of data loss. Secondary goals are low maintenance and user friendliness/user features. If the current software doesn't live up to the requirements, then fix it or find some new software, which does.
     
    If it is decided to move to new software, then copy the server to some local server, convert it and check the result. If it breaks stuff, delete it and start over. Repeat until you get it right. Once you know how to do it, backup the server and switch the software. If it unexpectedly breaks stuff, you still have the backup you can restore.
     
    A semi related note on this: quite a number of servers today are virtual servers and with good reason. You can back up the entire HD disk image, run whatever update you want and if it breaks, you can restore the old HD by simply copying a single (big) file. Having the entire server on a disk image also mean it can be copied to other servers if needed. Chances are that the server is already a virtual server unless there is a dedicated server hardware, which is paid to not run anything else.
     
    I feel a bit weird saying this as "the new guy". I hate when people show up out of nowhere and tell how to do something and demand it to be done that way (usually ignoring that there is a reason why it isn't so already). I will not demand anything and have tried to be more objective about this post. Still I would like to request not giving up just because of one failed attempt at some point. It is almost to be expected that the first attempt fails, which is why you should sandbox your tests until you get something working.
     
    If I have to say my opinion on this matter, then I would say I would prefer different forum software. I hate the post comment interface with all the mandatory mouseclicks and while it is supposed to be intuitive, I get lost in it and still haven't figured out how to make posts look like I want. However this isn't a critical issue. The dataloss is and if the current software has an unfixable design flaw, which makes it prone to dataloss, then I strongly wish for something better.

    Roach reacted to Pabloc in Do you like trap heroine in a VN?   
    I have only seen one VN that was kinda like this - https://vndb.org/v14922. But unlike most traps, who seem to be cross-dressing just for comedic and/or fetish reasons, Toboso was written much more seriously (as much as surreal guro VN allowed), and was actually suffering from sexual identity disorder with all the related drama (and not only that).
    But this VN probably shouldn't count, because (moderate spoiler):
    For a more typical VN with one trap "heroine", I will definitely read https://vndb.org/v9175 someday.
    I dislike "fake-yuri" VNs - those that have a typical Yuri setup, except with a cross-dressing guy as a protagonist (like Otoboku). That's just a blasphemy. Otherwise, I don't mind trap protagonists, or traps in general. They are neutral to me (though maybe I'd classify trap x trap stuff as "somewhat interesting").
    As for reverse-traps - I don't like them. Outside of H-scenes they look and act like dudes, so with male protagonist, their routes kinda have gay-vibes most of the time, and with female protagonist - they reduce the overall "yuriness". Reverse-trap as a protagonist (https://vndb.org/v6680) seems like an interesting idea though.

    Haven't posted here in quite a while...
    We're still working hard on the common route! A lot of assets are being produced, thanks to the effort of everyone on the team! Guess I'll just post some assets, since sharing is caring
    First : our podcast episode 1 video! 
    Cover art : Dizzyworld2,
    OST : Hustle & Bustle by Jason Walsh
    Participants : AnotherPlayer, Mac
    (Tips : do actually watch the video, you won't be disappointed!  )
     
    So usually, I often put a background update here with an asset, but this time, I'll do even better : a background speedpainting from Yuuko!
     
    And lastly, of course, some fanart, because you all deserved it after waiting for so long without any news :

    A bit late, but look at all the candy Akira got!  (Drawn by Yuuko)
    That's all for the moment!
    Stay tuned for some further updates soon-ish! (And follow the thread if you haven't been yet!  )

    Happy November! Around this time, I have some news for everyone who was waiting since October 20th.
    There has been a lot of changes going on with our website, along with moving and deleting a few active pages that aren't necessary. By tomorrow, there should be a small how to guide (if you already bought the digital version and waiting anxiously for the patch) if you want to pass the "alpha" game design. I will warn though, the alpha level is a bit tricky to understand, and can be different from yours since I am only giving the guide based on what I am translating from my point of view. The game also goes in different paths, so you might have some of the characters with "3-2" bars and some with "4 bars. You will understand once the guide is uploaded on our website.
    The image translations are almost done. We just need to get all of the cbg fixed correctly. Some of the cbgs that were translated appeared so weird that we had to squash the bug.   (I'm kidding, but a few images had to be adjusted so it loads properly in the game.)
     
    Scripts however, are progressing slowly. So slow that a Snail can bypass our translation progress  Please, if you know some Japanese, enlist so we can get our translations going! (Especially how I get busy too...)
    With all of that being said, there's ALSO a chance that you can try the game WITH the translated cbg and report to us any weird translations that aren't properly placed. I'll have to get in contact with Makato and check for his approval.
    I'll see you guys soon with another update!

    This is non-canon, but the Visual Novel has been proven a good alternate storyline if you are an Aoyama and Sorata Shipper.
    It actually covers certain things we haven't learned about. There's a new main character, and she has been seen in the anime like 3 times, and another main character who is a side character in the Visual Novel.
    If I remember correctly, you might even see some of the same things that happened in the anime done on an alternate timeline.
