Hello guys, name's Jeremiah Sand, and I'm here posting this thread because I need some help with releasing a patch for this game I've been working on for a while. Background Some months ago I started translating Sen no Hatou to English and I was committed to finish the project, but due to me switching to a more professional enviroment in translations I no longer have much time to dump into the project and I fear that at the speed I'm going it'll never come out, so I'd like to release everything I've done until now, or at least the contents that the game trial covers. Progress so far Around 20k lines translated (the trial covers 10k lines) and tlc'd (except maybe the last thousand) ready to be edited at any moment. I wouldn't mind releasing as it is if I could, but the main issues holding me back are: 1. I lack an editor, the previous one ghosted me, and I'm an ESL so I fear some parts might need the help of a native to improve the reading experience. 2. Although I have a tool that is supposed to insert the text into the game said tool doesn't work, and thus I am left without a means to insert back text or images. I can't extract any images either. 3. (Optional) I would not mind having a couple of QCs at my disposal if possible, but having the text edited is a priority and I won't accept any form of QC until I have confirmation that the editing has been finished. 4. Probably not an issue, but maybe I need image editing, depending on whether the guy who was open to help me is atill available or not. So yeah, that's everything. Maybe a trial patch is not what people seek, but I'd really like to get this out as I've been working very hard on it and I would like to encourage someone to maybe continue with what I did, unless enough people would ask me to see this until the end, and in that case I would highly consider doing so. VNDB link: https://vndb.org/v15708 Extra things: 1. I will translate both openings that appear in the trial and add video lyrics if possible in them (if I have the means to do so). 2. I will translate the UI if I have the means to do so, just like the OPs. If anyone haa extra questions by all means, I'm available here and in discord (Jeremiah Sand#4446). Don't PM there to troll, you will be met with an instablock if you do so. If this threads lack any critical info please let me know so I can add it asap. Thanks for reading so far, and hopefully something comes out of this. Have a good day and may the Lord bless you all, Jeremiah. EDIT: I've found someone willing to do the engine stuff for me, so thanks to @Porygon2 for that. I've already gotten some messages worried about my work "not being up to standards" (without having even seen it) since I'm a random and this is a Fan Translation, so if you want to help but feel the need to see if my work is good or not for your standards PM me and I'll gladly show my work to prove its quality.

Hello everyone, we have started working on a reinsertion project for Sonohana 12. We need an editor who's passioned about Yuri VN, not just Sonohana 12 or that series in particuliar (Since we can get C&D anytime by MG). Someone fluent in english and preferably japanese would be ideal. The translation needs a thorough editing pass since the translator speaks in a dialect. The translated text reinserted perfectly, had to do the line breaking manually though. We can provide screenshots if needed about the current progress. If you are interested, contact me in this thread and I will PM you with the discord server URL. In the case of a DMCA/C&D request, please send a message with an account backtrackable to a legit copyright owner. I will fully respect your request and move to an another Yuri VN who's not related to this series. Thank you very much for your interest.

Hello I'm currently translating the story content of this game, I've translated 3% of the scripts. Anyone willing to help is appreciated, I'm a solo worker and it might take some time for me to get used working in a group. Anyone can actually help with un-censoring the CGs?

Hello everyone, I am very new to Visual Novel Reader but there is a visual novel I have wanted to play for years and I finally got my hands on a copy. I know there are plenty of others out there who would enjoy it as well and so, seeing as I'm consulting my Japanese dictionary every two seconds anyway, I thought I'd use the 'subtitle' feature in VNR to translate it for people. However I'm not sure how to get it to work properly. Everything is working fine up until the first choice, then it's like the text forgets it needs to branch out and either doesn't appear, or appears at the wrong place. Am I doing something wrong? And is it easier to do the translation via VNR's soft subs? Or would making an entire English patch be better? But I'm very new and not technical at all so while I could do the translation, I have no idea where to even begin with patching it and making sure everything goes in the right place. Please help! :3 animeXalchemist

Trans Translations proudly presents: Trans! [nsfw] Description [edited from the VNDB description by Zakamutt] Ami, Minori, Taiga, and Ryuuji visit a Shinto shrine rumored to give its supplicants success in their romantic endeavors. A fearful entanglement occurs, and our hero and heroines find themselves tumbling down the stone stairs... "What? My voice..." Ryuuji says, "Why am I in Kushieda's body?" Forsooth, their predicament weaves a tangled web indeed: They all have switched bodies! Ami, having sprung into Ryuuji's flesh, finds herself ruled utterly by that limb of limbs, her newfound dick - and thus proceeds to embark upon a rapestravaganza of entrancing proportions. Team Members: Translator: Asonn TLC: Zakamutt Editor: Zander QC: Anonymous Technical Assistance: fox2 Special thanks to everyone else who has contributed thus far. Plus, an extra special thanks to Kiriririri for purchasing the game for me. The translation is already underway and progress is steady. Our team is now fully staffed and ready to go. We're very excited to bring this Toradora focused nukige to the English-speaking community!

To Heart Translation Project VN info (from VNDB) Translation Preview Some clumsy wording about the project: About the issues/Recruitment: So, the progress: And the todo list (priority order): And I guess that's pretty much it. With a bit of luck, it'll not stagnate in an eternally deep procrastination pool. Anyways, thank you very much for your attention. May Aoi protect your fighting spirit.

Finally we have HatsuKoi append patch finished here, and it mean that the time for Hoshiori project to begin has come. For the premise itself, we have the MC whose an improvement version of HatsuKoi's Yuuma, and more importantly the MC in question (Ryousuke) was come back to his hometown after seven years had been away from it. Other than Ryousuke himself is the improvement from Yuuma, tone work was also starting their trademark in this VN in which the trademark is their long writing in regard of the development, so obviously we'll gonna have a lot of lines (Around 200,000 lines). Also it's important to note that star will be the major theme in one of the route considering that we have 'Hoshi' in the title (That one route only will be obviously better than the whole localized Miagete, because it'll be uncensored lol), and the whole theme of Hoshiori is the dream for the future (Yume Mirai part) in which it'll depict the characters going forward to their future. Anyway, I'd been looking forward to this and obviously I'll be waiting until the route order announced at Tsurezure later. So feel free to discuss about the project here, although I'll mostly use this thread for reporting the progress though.

Id like to know what route everybody would like to see translated first. Information about progress can be found here Hikari has been selected as the first route to translate

Hello friends! This is newly formed translation group Kinniku22, and we have decided that after 15 years of going untranslated, we're gonna try our hand at developing a fan translation of the Studio Mebius VN, Snow 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: Right now it's just myself and a fellow who goes by the name of Takafumi. We'll be handling the development of the patch itself and the QC, as well as a bit of the translating. We're looking to recruit some folks here from the community who would like to see this project done. Anyone experienced/fluent in Japanese that can communicate with the team in English is more than welcome to come on board! Progress: As we have only just begun, we're busy combing through the files for now. We estimate about 76,000 lines needing to be translated, about a thousand more than the original Little Busters! This section will be updated as we gain more team members and the project gets rolling. Recruitment: As mentioned above, we're looking for translators to help us with this. I'm sure many people would love to help out with this, but due to the sheer amount of translating that needs to be done, we're looking for folks who are pretty experienced, if not fluent in Japanese. We're also native English speakers, so please be able to speak English on a conversational level so we can all communicate properly! This is also a for-fun translation project, so we're not asking any new team members to devote every second of their lives to this. Unless they want to, of course! Contact Info: If you have questions or wish to join the project, you can message me here or contact me at Rinny#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.

I'm looking for folks to translate some old vanilla nukiges by the (now renamed to Milk Factory) group SQUEEZ. If you are interested in giving these VN's a proper translation, send me a DM or reply in the thread. Lets make the dream come true.

Info: The game has announced to be localized in English so be sure to check it out https://denpasoft.com/blogs/news/announcing-a-new-upcoming-title?smid=2970068&utm_campaign=smartrmail_manualcampaign_010618_2970068&utm_medium=email&utm_source=smartrmail

First up, thanks to anyone reading this. I am fairly new to the world of translating VNs, but hopefully this can change soon enough. Now, my problem: I've decide to try and translate Saimin Class wonderful and am trying to get the script which has its own folder in the game files. Inside, there is a .pak file and an .idx file. I have tried mutiple methods so far (quickbms, online-services, 7zip) in order to open the file, but to no avail. Is there something else I need to pay attention to? Is it important that the game uses the EAGLS engine? Like I said, I'm rather new to this, so detailed explenations would be appreciated. Thank you in advance iambobokay

Baku Ane ~We'll Squeeze it out, Little Brother!~ TL Project Original Title: Baku Ane ~Otouto Shibocchau zo!~ (ばくあね ～弟しぼっちゃうぞ！～) Developer: Atelier Kaguya BARE&BUNNY Website: http://www.a-kaguya.com/products_bb/products_bb.html VNDB Link: https://vndb.org/v13943 Synopsis: The protagonist is a famous soccer player, but due to a leg injury from a game, he must now rest until it heals. When he returns home, he is warmly greeted by his 4 older sisters whom he hasn't seen for a long time. However, because his clubmates have play a prank on him and fill his bag with H-manga, their relationships immediately plummet after they find out about it. While trying to explain the situation to no avail, one of them suggests that they themselves should help him escape the 2D world and be interested in healthy adult women. Little does he know, all of his sisters love him more than a brother. And so, this is the beginning of a ridiculous erotic life between our protagonist and his 4 tempting older sisters. Archangel's Thoughts: Ugh, I'm sorry, but I couldn't look at that disgusting original post anymore. It looked so cringeworthy, and tried so desperately hard to be "KOOL" and "HIP" and "RAD". So, I cleaned up the opening post to look more presentable, and more straightforward.

Taking the place of his busy parents, he travelled a bit reluctantly to his grandparents’ home. Luckily, his grandfather’s situation wasn’t serious, and he spent time with his grandmother, who he hadn’t seen in a long time. She mentioned that the greenery in the area will soon disappear as it is razed for urban development. He lamented that it was a sign of the times. As he sat on the porch, feeling the cool breeze and listening to the soothing sound of the swaying wind chimes, he thought it was a very comfortable feeling. He noticed a small girl next to him, basked in the gentle sunlight. He was captivated by her beautiful hair, ears and smile. This is the beginning of a small love story with an innocent and curious white fox and a quiet and meddlesome fox. [From Hau~ Omochikaeri!] Trailer Screenshots (Early trial version build) Staff Project Leader & technical mumbo-jumbo: @Narcosis Translator: Allmighty Bee TLC: the person in question kindly asked us to not reveal his name Editor: Zanderboi QC's: Nanon, Arcadeotic, Major Popinfresh Alpha Testers: won't mention names for now but they'll be revealed at some point Honourable mentions go to @AtomCrafty, @binaryfail and everyone else, who we forgot about. Thanks for helping us, guys. INFORMATION (25/04/2018) The common route is translated and currently undergoes editing and TLC, translation on the remaining girls' routes began as well. We plan to release the trial version first around this summer, which contains the whole common route. Full patch will follow afterwards. This is also to ensure the final translation will be released as a quality product, since we want to gather feedback after the trial release. The current estimates are rough, as we plan to deliver a polished, self-extracting patch. Either way, it shouldn't take that long, at least not as long as Biman (hopefully) We want to thank @Arcadeotic and his team. Euphemic Translations will be providing us with additional help and several QC’s that we would’ve needed sooner or later. Big thanks to everyone who is now involved with the translation alongside us. PROGRESS CHART (last update: 19/04/2018) Common route: script delivered, TL: 100%, currently in editing Shiro's route: script delivered, TL: ~5% Kon's Route: script delivered, TL: 0% General FAQ Q: Is there any way to know the progress whenever I want? A: Ask here and we'll answer with the current progress. Alternatively, we will update the progress chart from time to time. Q: What is your team's translation speed? A: Bee does 100 lines per day on average except weekends, technically you can calculate the precise amount of days it'll take to complete this translation (we are too lazy to do it ourselves, lol.) Q: When are you releasing the patch? A: The translation will be done in a year, more or less, and the patch? No idea, but definitely faster than Biman. Q: No, but seriously - when will be the patch done? A: When it's done™ Q: Why aren't you looking for help in regards to more translators? A: We are trying to avoid that, as it will impact the translation's quality for a game of such length. Q: Do you even have a team name? A: Yes, it's "N A N I ? ! Translations." Q: Do you have a website? A: Yes, it's up, but it won't be presented until the trial version is out. Q: Is there any sort of place I can reach you beyond this forum? A: Yes - we have our own Discord channel, but it's currently not available to the public. We plan to open it after the trial release, though. Q: Can you show any actual proof that you're translating the game, aka images and stuff? A: Whenever we can, for now I'll just say that it's something in progress. Q: Can I donate to you? A: Better buy the game, when the translation's out. Q: Will you release a style guide (aka whether "we're taking out honorifics or not", let's get real)? A: Yes, but once the project is nearer to completion. Recruitment Currently we are fully staffed and not in need of any additional help. If any new positions open up, we will inform about that. Anyway, that's everything. We will update this topic as often, as possible. If you have any questions, suggestions, critique or simply want to thank us, feel free to leave a reply!

Kirigiri Sou VNDB Project team It will just be me for now because I want to try hacking a game by myself, just to have some sort of accomplishment I guess haha. Unless I get stuck to the point where I can't progress and nothing else is an option or someone else wants to join. Progress First of all I don't know where to start. This is my first time attempting anything like this because I want to try and be able to hack into games. I have minimum knowledge on how these types of projects work. I know hex editing is involved where you look at compiled code and change specific values in order to change string output. That's as far as I know. And from what I can tell with this game, when the .exe file is opened in a hex editor, no human readable text is visible. First roadblock: Find a way see decode the script and figure out how to change the string values. I have a solid understanding of Japanese already. I've played through the game multiple times already. There's nothing I don't understand in the written text. I will also need to figure out how to extract assets from the main menu, translate them, edit the assets into english, and re-encrypt them. Typing this out made me realize that this is probably impossible. But hey, I have nothing to lose, and it will be a great learning experience I hope. I'll definitely be asking for help a whole lot in the Fan Translation Discussion forum when I get to work on the meat of the project. In the meanwhile I will be searching google for guides on more in depth hex editing tutorials.

EDIT: Due to Fuwa anti-piracy rules this thread's usefulness was quite limited, since we couldn't ask for any files that we needed for further compatibility testing and the like. I'd say even posting direct links to our patch here was questionable to begin with, since it's not that different from the abovementioned files that we were asking for. So in the end we decided to remove all links from here and move our main release thread to Reddit: LINK That's where all further updates will be posted, so make sure to follow us there. I'll ask mods to lock this thread, since MeruP won't be checking it anyway, so all feedback should be posted on Reddit instead (we also have a dedicated thread for reporting bugs and other issues).
