kushakusha Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Hello, first, I wanted to ask if anyone is working on a translation of Ciel's "Fault!!" VNs. I have seen that there exists some translation of it in the "Visual Novel Reader" software, but there, some lines are missing and also, some lines were translated a bit wrong. Also, while "Visual Novel Reader" is definitely an awesome software, I still think that an actual TL patch is still a more comfortable solution. Second, I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to repack scripts for the "Fault!! Ace" game or maybe could tell/show me how to. I was able to extract the scripts (the file is "msg.arc") with ExtractData or a small tool named "excfarc" (http://asmodean.reverse.net/misc/_/excfarc.zip). Apparently, the source c++ file is just 5KB, but I'm still far too inexperienced with programming to understand how to reverse the extraction process from it. Also, I have no idea about c/c++-libraries, writing/reading from files and stuff. I have to admit that I'm just experimenting here. I know that translating the full game is out of my capabilities, but I can imagine myself translating at least a smaller section of it.

mitchhamilton Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I'm sorry, I don't know anything about what you are talking about. I just wanted to say you have my support on this. I have been waiting forever for a Tony Taka's vn to be translated. As you may have guessed from my profile pic that one, I love the character design for Asa Mizushima, and two I love Tony Taka's work in general. I wish you the best of luck.

Thanks for the encouragement! :-) I agree, Tony Taka's art is just wonderful. His girls always look really sexy^^ It's a good mix between anime style and a more realistic style, I think. From the Fault!! games, I really like the character design of Reiko Wingfield senpai. She's also one big reason why I'd like to see the game translated ;-P @topic Probably not very helpbul, but from what I could make out, I think that excfarc-file uses some selfmade libraries ('as-util.h', 'as-lzss.h'), which, at some point, are used to undo a lzss-compression on some of the txt-files, or something like that. There should be probably also other libraries for c++ in the internet which do the same job, I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krylan Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Unfortunately, I also don't know too much about compressing and programming in C++, so I think I couldn't help you, but I'm also totally supporting you! I would definitely play this VN if it will be translated. I hope, that someone will help you with that programming/hacking issues and that translation will come out someday... I would like know anything to help you... :< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
