I can't seem to get the text to appear, when I start To Heart 2 X rated all I get are black screen with mouse mark.

Do you mean when you first start the application or when you first start the game? Check the text and effect speeds, they may need resetting to something faster. Videos are known not to play on some hardware.

When I first starte the game

Try clicking once in the game box and see if the main menu appears. This sounds like the issue ittaku mentioned, where the video doesn't play, and the opening splash screen (stuff like the Leaf logo, etc.,) are videos. They wouldn't play on one of the two computers I tried on.

Edit: Also, yay, release!

And the final release is out!

This left me all alone for the next ~6 years. Despite this, I actually enjoyed translating the game and felt a sense of obligation to finish translating it, and it continued to present good practice material for my Japanese. Despite its apparent simple charage persona, the language in it was not so straight forward and I found myself referring a lot to Japanese wikipedia for historical references and so on. In one scene I had to explain the theory of relativity... Unfortunately since this was a project to further my Japanese skills, it meant that the quality of translation started out very bad and slowly worked its way up as I improved. I kept advertising and asking for translation checkers and at various times I had people offer to help but none ever lasted. This was kind of disappointing but not surprising to me since I'm double the average age of amateur group members and have a different sense of commitment to projects. Fortunately they helped iron out the kinks of some of the earlier routes which would have otherwise suffered a lot.

A couple of years there was no progress due to life events but I rediscovered my enthusiasm for the project as I got closer to the finish and looked forward to translating Ruuko's ruute [sic] who I had left last to give it the best possible attention. I turbocharged the translation at that point and did her entire route in 10 days while on vacation from work and posted the update here.

Thanks, Really appreciate the effort and dedication that you put into this.

I haven't even watched the anime yet. But now that this is done its time to start reading. 

For those that have seen the anime.. does the anime concentrate on a single heroine or is it just random slice of life based on the VNs characters.

If the anime has a completely unrelated story to that of the VN, then i  will start by watching the anime first followed by the VN

The anime has stories from the game, some from each heroine, without making much forward progress the way you do in the game. It's pretty average and I wouldn't watch it if you're about to play the game. The OVAs are fun though, and they feel more like side stories from the game, except the later OVAs are actually based on the sequel game Another Days which I won't be translating (and I doubt anyone else will be.)

Hello ittaku

Sincere thanks for your hard work! I am really admire people who volunteering in deepening interculture connections :)

But I want to describe a problem with this patch - it seems that there is some problem with fonts. Japan version works perfectly but english text don`t appears, only sakura-like сursor. 

May be font didn`t installed properly? Can you please say, what fonts do you use? Mmay be I can install tham manually?

There are some other eroges on this PC (Grisaia, Rance series, etc, and all English there works properly.

You cannot install a system font to make it work. The patch alters the packed font included exclusively for the game. You MUST use the bat file to patch all the files and MUST start with an unmodified install of the game for the patching to work. If you have moved, altered or replaced any of the original installation files it will not work. If it patched okay but text is not appearing then you have some other problem. If you are using old save files they won't work. If text is coming up extremely slowly, adjust the text and effect delivery speed settings.

I've been having issues with running the game. Get a constant stream of .pak, .bmp and .tga errors after having run the patch. I tried resetting the video and text speed to the fasted they could run as per ittaku's recommendation, but that didn't help. I have several screenshots to show the progression of patch and errors if anyone can assist. Didn't want to load them all here to overload or spam the thread.

The default install of the game is into a system directory which was fine way back in windows XP days but won't work properly today (even unpatched, save files won't work). After installing the game, move the whole folder to somewhere your user login has full access to, or change the access control for that directory to allow your user to have read and write access to it. The patch will ONLY work on a fresh installation, not one that has already been patched, and if it's still in a system directory you need to run the bat file as administrator.

I moved the installation to a root windows C: file location I created called Games. Verified that I had had full read/write access to the file and I'm getting the same issue. ghIHiv7.jpg

 

Thanks for taking a look into this for me

Looks like files are missing. You sure you have a full original installation? It says it can't open the grp.pak file to find the black.bmp picture.

Yes you'll see there is no grp.pak file. The patch did not appear to apply properly. Did you run it as administrator?

I did, I've run as administrator every time. I took screen shots of the patch cmd line that I can attach, maybe give you a better idea as to what the cause is
