sg-epk@jtk93 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 So I am currently translating the a PC port of Steins;Gate Linear Bounded Phenogram from Chinese to English. It shouldn't be that hard since a translation of all the text exists but the problem is that I don't know how to edit or open RPYB files, if I can't open those files I can't edit the text for the Novel. So does anyone know how to edit and open these RPYB files? Nier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakamutt Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Note: there is already a complete English youtube translation for this VN. The translator said not to use his text for any actual patches, but whether you care about that is your choice. Considering his reason was it encouraging piracy... or something... I'm not sure if I would care much myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg-epk@jtk93 Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Ah yes well, I actually want to release a PC release for people to use. Nier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakamutt Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Well, (some) people are unlikely to be all that happy about a JP->CN->EN translation, but do as you wish I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way to get a translation. On 9/11/2016 at 5:46 PM, sg-epk@jtk93 said: So I am currently translating the a PC port of Steins;Gate Linear Bounded Phenogram from Chinese to English.

So does anyone know how to edit and open these RPYB files? I'm sure one of the following can decompile the scripts. Python allows you to use decompiled scripts on run time... so you shouldn't have to worry about that(recompiling). https://bitbucket.org/tari/renpy-rv https://github.com/CensoredUsername/unrpyc https://visuallyneko.wordpress.com/visual-novel-tools/renpy-script-decompiler/ Nier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His reasons should be pretty obvious, with keeping the fan-translation patch all to himself (if you watch the videos, it should be pretty obvious he is using a fan-translation patch and not just merely photoshoping english text on top of the japanese text, which mean an english patch was created, which he never released) and just uploading videos on youtube of him playing the game he can have exclusive control over anything Linear Bounded Phenogram english-related and this way he can actually get all Linear Bounded Phenogram money when people come and watch his videos on youtube, whereas if he would just have released the fan-translation patch he wouldn't have gotten anything.

Pretty sure that's not what he is saying and you are misunderdanding, the game is console-exclusive in Japan BUT in China it was released on PC too, think of the situation where Umineko Project is making a PC port of Umineko PS3 games in English and Russian. With an existing PC port, he can release an english PC version this way and it would be an easy solution for people outside East-Asia to finally easily be able play the game in a language they can understand.

I have yet to read Linear Bounded Phenogram because "playing" a VN by watching videos of someone else playing the game just isn't fun, so I never read Linear Bounded Phenogram because of that, hope this project can pan out so that you are able to make an english PC release available for us non East-Asian speakers.

Baldur Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Just bumped into this project. It seems to be frequently updated on Twitter. I never liked the idea of playing using a walkthrough, so I'm really looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
