So I don't know if this is do-able or not but it's worth giving a shot. Recently there has been more demand for unexisting hacking tools on the Data extraction thread. (For recent games youcould say) I'm far from wanting to leave these demands unanswered but I - as a non computer science student - am unfortunately unable YET to help these future translators in hacking their game. I know a tutorial of that sort was made by user Proger on his blog 4 years ago. I have many questions for hackers whose answers will be the trigger -or not- to an attempt at making a hacking tutorial on the forum thus hopefully helping our fan translation community just a little more in their remarkable task. Questions to hackers : - Is Proger's tutorial correct ? If yes, is it still relevant for current games engines ? - I know the hacking process is different for every engine, but is there enough common "framework" between the different processes for this tutorial to be useful and exist ? - If yes, can the knowledge to create an extraction tool be summarized enough for the tutorial not to require months of learning ? - Would you as a hacker want to help me making that tutorial ? If the answers to question 2.3.4 are yes, then we'll be on our way to making that tutorial. \o/ RESTARTING SOON When ? No idea :xmas:

My Japanese friend and I decided to try translating a very short visual novel together. He's very serious about getting into the VN translation, so I decided to help him with the extraction/insertion of text. Does anybody know of any good tutorials on this topic? I have a bachelor in CS, but my hacking experience is almost nil (I once made a simple aimbot for Cube Assault following a dll injection tutorial). I would be very grateful if anyone here who has experience with VN cracking could share his learning sources. No big hopes up, but we are going to try our best, and possibly see it all the way through. Edit 1: I'm not sure if this is the best section for this kind of request, sorry if this question should've been posted elsewhere

I don't really know if it's in contradiction with the rules of this forum (I've read the thread of Down and this isn't asking for a translation or anything, so I guess I'm safe), but I would like some help with extracting the script from モテすぎて修羅場なオレ (http://vndb.org/v11568) Just finished this visual novel and I enjoyed it a lot (mainly because of the cute girls). Now, I'm not really the type who would translate stuff, because it's quite some work. But- I want to give it a try anyways. Trying new things is a good thing, right? It's about the se.arc file (I guess se stands for "scenario"?). I'm horrible with hacking, so could someone help me with this? I'd like to translate at least 10% to 20% to make sure I take this seriously, otherwise I'm dropping this halfway, which sucks. Once I'm sure I'll continue with it, I'll make sure to ask help and (hopefully) get some people to help me. Thank you in advance. Edit: It's solved. This thread can be (re)moved by a moderator.
