Mr Poltroon

Adding to this for any future peeps, the Fuwa version of Ever17 should contain both the normal EXE and the 8.1 EXE.

So if you're using Windows 8 or 8.1, just use the ever17PC_Win8.1.exe



I spent the longest time ever trying to get Ever17 to work during my noob days cuz of not noticing this.

While this might be a little late I guess it's better late than never... I made a channel trailer which also includes a preview of some upcoming scenes in the series.

I knew I'd get dragged in at some point.
 
Nevertheless! The logical course of action to start this would be explaining how Unlimited Chatter Works... was not always so.Go back to it's humble beginnings, the attempt at forming a team to translate the now finally translated, Miyako route.
Of course, for a start, I'd say this does the job:

And in what should come as a surprise to absolutely no one, here we are!
 
Anyways, I will do my utmost to keep the thread alive.

Hisashiburi Mina-san!!!

Hey guys, I know many of you are waiting for common route patch, but unfortunately there was big delay. Please bear with us a little longer. We are now slowly finishing last bits and pieces. I don't want to promise you any particular date, but know that we are still working on it.

For most of us this is a first TL project and we did encounter many hardships along the way.
Thanks for your patience...

Well it's pretty easy, if you heard my voice you would thing i sound like a roughly aged old man, because my voice is so deep, who can't decide if he's drunk or sober as i slur my words when i'm in the middle of thinking and speak sharp and fast when i have my thoughts in order. You on the other hand sound refined, clean and overall properly well despite being six years my senior and your voice is quite soft, i'm a bit envious   

Normally, I don't bump the thread every time we update the current translation status, but I thought it was worth noting that our Hinata translator recently returned from hiatus and since then the translation progress of Hinata's route has jumped 20% (~2,000 lines) over the course of just one week. I know there's at least one person on this forum who will be happy to hear about that.

I've seen Tio's dere side when he forgot to put on pants. 
 

Oh, yes I see now.
I'm unfortunately not very given to physical damage...
 
 
I just didn't understand the purpose of an anime club, but I guess I wouldn't mind, and as you can see under my avatar, I do have one.

The one of the nicest guy around.

Very interesting indeed. Now that you've mentioned me, however, I can't just not quote you and give you what you want.
Now I actually don't know if I should tell you or not because of the ridiculous amounts of double negatives my sentence had.
 
No, really though, it was nothing interesting at all. I just said he had some shining positivity.
 
My favourite misspelling of "Jump off a bridge" is "Jump off a cliff".
 
Either way, why is that?

I don't know.. I just choose more or less randomly without putting to much thought into it.
 
In Grisaia no Kajitsu I more or less just took them in the order their seperate route appeared. I took Makina as nr. 2 because I didn't want to take her money

I'm pretty much the same in real life which is why I tend to stay quiet
 
people usually don't appreciate my bluntness

(Note, this hasn't been updated in a while.  If you wish, you should probably consider it dropped, but if it still interests you, shoot me a PM anyway.)
 
-AT THE END OF A SUMMER'S KNIGHT-
 
 
Many salutations, esteemed forum-goer!  Thank you for your visit.  I can assure you that we will be having a splendid time here.
 
 
Seeing as how the OELVN community has just been hit with a severe blow, both with the cancellation of Dysfunctional Systems and the announcement of a sequel to Sakura Spirit, which no doubt must be causing severe pain to our fellows, I have taken it upon myself to take up the developer's banner once more, and bring victory to Fuwa-kind!
 
At the End of a Summer's Knight, is a short 4-6 hour Visual Novel, mostly kinetic with the exception of a single choice halfway through the final act.  The story takes place in Europe, in an undecided/fictional country, during what may or may not be the period of the French Revolution or something similar.  Somewhere around the enlightenment period.  Anyway, political turmoil, fancy suits, badass assassins, lots of swords and lots and LOTS of fighting.  Oh, and if we're ever short on music, I think most of the music from that period has entered open-source by now, so we might just be able to use that, which would be ab-sol-utely splendid!
 



 
Art is probably going to be our weak point, so I'm assuming this will likely be presented in NVL mode, to draw more attention to the writing as opposed to the art.  Engine will most likely be Ren'py.
 
For now, there are about seven to eight characters who would need some sprites, though this is subject to change.  (I certainly don't plan to add any more, at the very least.)  I don't believe many individual sprites across those will be necessary though, as we're trying to keep this minimum to low budget, if money is involved at all.  Best-case scenario, either we're able to release for free or we can put the funds towards a 'next project' if possible.
 
--CHARACTERS
 



 
--Protagonist's daughter (7-9 years of age.)



 
--Rebellion Leader (Older than Protagonist by about 5 years.  Charismatic, not afraid of killing, strong and dies about halfway through.)
 
--Fellow Rebel (Otherwise known as 'Genderbent Battler'.)
 
Bad guys
 
--King (Dies in the opening sequence.  Might not even need a sprite, just a CG or two if we can manage it right.)
 
--Prince (Damn good with a sword.  Personality would usually be that of a rival character if we're following standard shonen fare.  A year or two younger than the protagonist.)



 
--Bumbling other prince (Prince's fancypants cousin from god-knows-where.  Installed as a figurehead by the prince after the king's death.  Arrogant and not very bright.)
 
--Genderbent Beatrice (What, you can't have Battler if you don't have Beatrice, can you?  Originally a rebel member, stayed behind during the opening sequence and got captured.  Then he goes half-insane as time goes on, eventually turning 'full-on evil' for the sake of bloodlust.)



 
--Guard Captain (Not easily aggravated, and actually quite calm.  Uses a bow in a world where guns are just starting to become more commonplace.)
 
 
Note:  Genderbent Battler/Beatrice are only referred that way for humor's sake in addition to that being their origin, and will probably be quite different as things develop.  Please don't consider those the most important parts of their character.  Remember, Battler is female and Beatrice is the male.
 

 
After that, there would be the outline.  Consider this a less-detailed flowchart.  It should cover all of the major events in a summarized fashion.  Names will be given for the characters, but these are not thought through and are more of a placeholder/inside jokes.
 
 >>> marks indicate that it has moved to the next scene.  This will only cover the very basics, so don't expect it to be in-detail.
 
NATURALLY, THESE WILL HAVE SPOILERS IN THEM.  JUST LETTING YOU KNOW.
 
--ACT I
 



 
--ACT II
 



 
(The summary is taking a bit long to write, so I'll finish it later.  Act III is the last one.)
 
--WORKLOAD
 
As for the writing itself, if I'm the only one like I expect, I'll likely write them in traditional novel format in a Word Document, then move them over to the Ren'py engine on a scene-by-scene basis, regardless of whether or not the art/sounds are finished by then.  They will be added in as they are completed.  Other writers are welcome to come if they are interested, however I will most likely require a sample of former work.  Artists and sound people are in the highest priority, followed by managers and programmers, and then additional writers.  They all have a chance, but the lower you are the higher-quality work it might take to get accepted.  Larger teams take much more work to manage.
 
--ARTISTS
 



 
 
 
 
--SOUND GUYS
 



 
 
--MANAGERS/PRODUCERS
 



 
 
--PROGRAMMERS
 



 
--WRITERS
 



 
--Epilogue
 
Now that that's done, I have one last thing to say.  While the possibility of this being sold exists, do not come into this expecting to get paid.  Should this be of high quality enough I will do what I can to make sure those with the effort and willpower get what lies at the end of the tunnel, but I will make damn sure that you put out the effort if you want this to happen.  Half-assed work, and that goes for any of you, won't be worth a penny in the commercial market.  I'm sure we all want this to go as far as it can, and I will make it happen with all of my strength.  But do not think you can make something so much as a physical reward without putting out every last fiber of your being into this.
 
And with that, I suppose that's everything.  Should we get some examples of art, writing, etc created, we shall put it up.  Maybe a demo or two as well if we're able to.  But until then, I ask of your patience.
 
I estimate a release around August 2015 if everything goes smoothly.  Maybe later.
 
Good luck, everyone.  If you're interested, please PM me or make a post below.

The hell? Could your preferences be any wilder?
 
Confession:
Pretty much every time I send a PM due to my mod-related duties someone goes and mentions either "oppression" or "sarcasm". I simply cannot understand why

My name is Tiago, TiagoFVarela.
 
If you're also interested in my advice I suggest people avoid posting sensitive matters on the internet and expect positive, beaming responses and pity and attention.
 
Either way, I am a sensible human being and I should know other people don't like that kind of response...
 
Though what I said was exactly the same I told my mother back when my uncle went to the hospital and died. I don't like being all serious over such matters myself.

Your award is ready to hand out. Just do what you need to do and discuss it with me.

And it is completely hentai.

No, I want the lovers to show their love in private, not amidst a perfectly fine thread. It's hard to have a conversation when everyone's just throwing cheap compliments at each other. And repeating stock phrases.

Gotta agree with Tiago...
 
Love and the declaration of such, creeps some of us cellar-dwelling otaku creatures out, and makes it kinda difficult to add any meaningful (lol) thing to this thread.

I like good openings, and I dislike bad openings. Strictly objective, of course.
 
Something like that. If I like the song I see the OP if I don't I skip it. If I can't skip it I deal with it. Not much of an opinion at all.

Oh the anime's already finished huh? I think I stopped halfway into Makina's route..  

Time to finish this up 

@above you're right imo, but imo you'd be surprised by how many people view their imo as a FACT imo

This is as good as I could make Chinami look 

 
Again, doesn't really look the greatest imo.
