Deep Blue Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I use vndb to keep a record of what vns I own, I don't use anything for normal games... but that program looks good I might give it a try. EDIT:This is really similar to what steam does with some extra features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dergonu Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I simply keep one big folder called "VNs" on my desktop, and have a few sub folders in there with all my games. 1 for Mangagamer 1 for Denpasoft / SP 1 for Saya on Uta. Erhem, I mean Jast. And then 1 for fan translations / untranslated games. I have my VNDB, though I suck at updating it, so I'm not really organized at all when it comes to VNs. I just go through my stupid amount of titles and find one I want to read next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverLi Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 A VN folderon my desktop. I am not organizing them except in alphabetical order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asonn Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I have a VN folder, and in the VN folder I have an TL folder and in that folder I have all kind of genres from Nukige, Yuri, Nakige and much more and in my VN folder I also have a 日本語 folder with the same style of sorting like my TL folder. I might also add that I add my VNs as non-steam games on steam and set them in a category.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be hilarious to fire up a random nukige from Mangagamer, and have my steam friends see: "Dergonu is playing: Suck my dick or die!"

Darbury Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Airtable. It's an online spreadsheet/relational database hybrid that's great for these kinds of tasks, especially if you have a large collection to sort through. (Not as pretty as LaunchBox, of course...)

Scorp Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I am completely okay with "Games" folder and games there. As I use 10x2 TB HDD all installed on same PC, there is no problem to track VNs I read. All physical stuff is on my shelf, so no problem to organize that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleshogun Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I think for my organizing VN, just put it in local disc D and E instead of desktop. Well, I'd also put the VN in unique name folder for each 6 - 7 VN (Or only 4 VN for some folder). Other than that, not much different from some member here in regard of storing VN.

Meat_Bun1 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 For Steam, I divide it up into finished, "in progress", and not started. For non-Steam ones, I have a flash drive for unfinished (in progress or not started) games and one for finished ones. I use VNDB to track all the ones I have obtained and/or read and I'm very good about that (although I never say I am playing one; just stalled or finished).

Hanako Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I just put Yuri VN in the task bar, and the rest is irrevelent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasDice Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 All of my stuff is in a folder called , so that in the case of someone looking inside, they'll go "Thank god, it's just hentai". Dergonu and AaronIsCrunchy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronIsCrunchy Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 I have a folder enticingly titled 'VNs' which sits in My Documents. So it's not organised at all, really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
