HoplessHiro

Lol. Yeah its an typo. It is meant to be "hopeless"

If you want to be spoiled send me a pm and i will spoil you the fun

For now i could send examples on PM. If someone really wants to spoil the game. I could just put the same example pictures as on getchu and / or official site

Do you mean actual screenshots from ingame? If yes. Actually I would do it but cant, because of the forum policy "No loli content". I am open to any suggestion to resolve that issue.

Lol. The patch doesn't add new content. Just fixing/redrawing/reimaging existing content. If under exisitng content is something like that then te answer is yes. Expect later today Hachiroku's 5th hscene! After finishing all the hscenes for her next I am going to fix Hibiki :).

Hachiroku's Hscenes 1,2, 3, and NOW with the released 4th hscene, download link is a the new topic -> All future updates and discussion will be a this topic. Thank you.

MAITETSU 18+ DEMOSAIC STEAM AND FAKKU PATCH Did you mistake the quote "100% DRM free and completely uncut with no scenes removed" as "TOTALLY UNCENSORED!"? Do you hate to see squares in beautiful art? Are you from the golden era (JAST USA, Peach Princess, G-Collections) and expected from an localized eroge to get an fully uncut, uncensored and without mosaics game? ... Then this patch is for you. You read it right, the patch does what it says. It removes the mosaic in hscenes from the beautiful artwork. Original MAITETSU 18+ Fakku edition -> you can buy it at the official page: https://www.fakku.net/games/maitetsu-english -> PLEASE SUPPORT english localization by buying the game ! OR BUY FROM STEAM Maitetsu 18+ Release Restoration Patch - FOR STEAM OR BANDAID removal PATCH + restoration patch - FOR FAKKU 1. [Q]: Is it legit? [A]: I can't believe it myself either. But YES! It is real and it does what it says. Try it before reporting or commenting. Thank you. 2. [Q]: Where are the hscenes? I can't find them in the game? [A]: There are no hscenes in the common route, except provoking pictures which the Maitetsu 18+ Release Restoration Patch restores and the actual hscenes won't trigger by default, but during a heroine route, a message will popup at bottom right side of the screen saying that you gain access to a hscene, then you have to manually open the hscene in the menu. It is a game design, not a bug or glitch, it is how LOSE company makes the games. Rarely you will gain access for hscenes during a route, most hscenes are unlocked AFTER finishing the game with that particular heroine. 3. [Q]: When does the DLC hscenes show up? [A]: After you complete the previous hscenes, the DLC hscenes will eventually show up. 4. [Q]: STEAM support? [A]: At the moment I don't own the STEAM version so I can't test it and I don't know if it works. If someone can help me I will make an steam support patch, but you would still need the FAKKU 18+ DLC patch. 5. [Q]: Can we see some screenshot/examples of patch? [A]: Because of the nature of the game as being an loli game I can't post pictures because of the policy of the forum. But if someone wants to see the results before buying the actual game I can send you 2 example pictures. Just send a PM and I will reply with those 2 example pictures. Examples of non-loli characters are in the gallery section. 6. [Q] : What was changed in the new Fakku edition? What's the difference between the OLD and NEW download? [A]: Jacob from fakku has a good description -> https://www.fakku.net/forums/games/maitetsu-fixes-and-updates .Everything written in the section "what has not changed" WAS already fixed already by heliosaurus by his patch and the same fix is present in the new "BANDAID removal PATCH + restoration patch" 7. [Q] Why is there a difference in size between Heliosaurus Restoration patch and "BANDAID removal PATCH + restoration patch" Both patches work perfectly fine and shouldn't have any problems. You can use Heliosaurus on the OLD and NEW version but the BANDAID patch is only for new FAKKU download ONLY. But... the original restoration patch includes fixes which are already fixed in the new version of FAKKU's edition and the BANDAID removal patch just removes this fixes from the PATCH to be less in size. The reason why you could still use the original restoration patch on the old and new version of fakku is that technically the patch is in original form a "patch.xp3" which contains mostly PICTURES! Yes, pictures. And it just replaces those pictures from the original data files which are located in "data.xp3" / "emotedx.xp3", and so on. The KiriKiri engine works like that. When FIRST run, it loads first files from, data.xp3, and all the main xp3, and then LOADS patch.xp3, patch2.xp3, patch3.xp3... and so on. That's why we don't need external programs to patch the original data files, and we can put everything in PATCH.XP3, or PATCH2.XP3, and so on. You can literally replace the whole game with a single PATCH.xp3 file. The restoration patch was made by using resource files from the JAPANESE version and replaces the resource files from the ENGLISH version. So the original restoration patch just OVERWRITES fixes-pictures present in the MAIN game from the NEWEST fakku edition download.... 8.[Q]: That isn't the game we were promised / it is disappointing / don't want to buy the game .... [A]: Well, it isn't a question, I just want to express my opinion... I understand that the release a disappointment, and like everyone, even I would wanted a TOTALLY uncut and uncensored version. I hate the CUTS in western releases, but that was going on for decades not just in VN's look in the old days of SNES games with JRPGS. And in east they get the same results with some western games... Thanks to that, we have two types of ppl - one who are complaining and the the other one who are making uncut/undub/uncensored version of games, from snes to psp/psvita and so on. What I mean is that you shouldn't lose energy in complaining on fakku and denpasoft/sekai, yes even sekai. I understand that sekai don't take releases seriously but at least we got the translated version, whish is a huge WORK. And be thankful, we got "OMG!" Maitetsu! I can't expect newcomers and the ones on fakku to stop complaining ( and I am not saying that you have to start editing, and join the community of moders, but you are always welcome to join ), but at least you at fuwanovel you have no more reasons to complain. At the end you got the complete 1:1 japanese uncut release with english text, and even a little more, with the demosaic patch ( which in the japanese edition they don't have ). .... please ask questions and I will put most common questions and answers here ...

Later today gonna upload the 4th scene.... should i make an separate topic for the mosaic patch, if yes. I dont know where because on the forum everything is about fan translations ? Or should I keep posting here the updates?

You have to have the fakku edition and the restoration patch ( it uses the file patch.xp3 ). If you are using the steam version i am not sure if it is working because at the moment i dont own it and cant test it.... if you are missing the restoration patch, i mean the patch.xp3 then the demosaic patch2.xp3 cant load. Then you have to rename it to patch.xp3 to be able to load. But there is no purpose to use it without the restoration patch..... As for the story. The patch itself doesnt add new scenes or changes the timeline for current scenes. It only removes mosaics for Hachiroku’s Route hscene 1 2 and 3. The other ones have still mosaics which i am working on. When Hachiroku’s Route is 100% complete ( with DLC in mind ), Hibiki will be next If you are using garbro then you cant open the psb inside xp3. I am not sure why but before the patch i could open it... but the patch2.xp3 is working properly... for extracting iam using old version krkextract, the new versions are unstable. For editting psb i am using the freemote tools and the psb tools. Thanks to heliosaurus. He gave me tips how to edit psb.... if someone wants help for editing the files you can send pm.

Some are talking and some are working ;)... later today uploading hscene3! PS: Here is the third hscene without mosaics: https://ufile.io/m9vx4

And here it is: Now the second Hscene is without mosaics, try it out: https://ufile.io/1glx6 Just put the patch2.xp3 in the Maitetsu folder

While playing the usual story sometimes a message popups at the bottom right corner when the hscene is unlocked, but the normal story continues without showing the hscene. So you have to manually jump to see it... It is normal for Lose games, same was for Monobeno.

Time consuming it is, but not actually how someone would think... i mean.. it is for me, because i'm not a great artist, and don't have the necessary tools ( like a drawing tablet and so on), but i try to use as much reference materials as possible. Don't know how much you know about emote engine (didn't know myself till a couple of days), but the emote uses a big resolution PNG file, which is divided into parts ( example, body parts, like head, legs, body, hair, eyes...), similar to textures, and every scene has only 1 PNG file. So when you open a PNG file, the second layer of mosaics you have to cut it out from the image and thats done. But the first layer has to be redrawn, but it helps because it has less mosaics than the second layer. In other words, the second layer is only mosaics, and the first layer is half mosaic half body part. Because of that it is easier to uncensor an emote animation file, than a normal still CG image Just for now i'm trying to make for one 1 girl the whole story + dlc mosaicsless. And if the feedback is great, i could try another girl Sometimes the positions are off, but the next scene (which i'm working on as we speak* (write) ) looks great

Sry for the misunderstanding. What i meant is that in the game the picture is uncensored and not like the screenshot with heavy mosaics which i made as a joke. Actually i have redrawn the parts which had mosaics. So the answer is no. Everything is censored. So it has to be redrawn... but... because it uses the emote engine in the resource files there is sometimes less mosaics than in the actual game. Because they added 2 layers of mosaics ( which is stupid itself, one layer is enough )

Thanks for the feedback. Here is the patch with the completed first h1 scene without mosaics - https://ufile.io/t7xl4

Try the patch. The image is just a joke and doesnt represent the actual patch.

I'm working on a uncensoring patch for the game. For now just one scene. The scene in question is (* the actual ingame picture is uncensored *) Please leave comments/critics/ how do you like it or don't. Download: https://ufile.io/ntngt
