Chifuyu-chan 143 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) Description Quote While his parents are away working overseas our hero takes this opportunity to visit his childhood friend (and her twin-sister). They live with their mother and are located pretty close to the high school he and the twins go to. So, seeing that he'd be living alone otherwise, they decide to have him live with them in the meantime. There's also a prestigious all-female school nearby; this being the case, several students/teachers live in the same neighborhood as the hero's childhood friend; thus the rarely seen male presence begins a bit of an uproar as awkward, hormone-charged interactions begin. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Progress Translation: 32977/32977 Translation Check - 32977/32977 Editing: 0/32977 Image editing: TBA Hacking: Done Who's working on this at the moment?

Kosakyun 789 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 First of all, I think that should be pity, not piety. Anyway, glad to see that you're actually reviving the project! I'm glad that you are, since a lot of us were probably looking forward to that project being finished in the past! I know that it's going to be a rough journey for you guys, but I do hope from the bottom of my heart that you do not falter in the midst of your journey! Goodluck, and may Bishamonten bless your will to fight the translators' curse! 1 Chifuyu-chan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyways, it will be a rough journey for sure considering the game has 30,000+ lines and there's that problem about hacking as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OriginalRen 1,877 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 As someone who streamed this game in a live translation with zoom909, I approve. Feel free to contact me if you want me to preview the patch! 1 Chifuyu-chan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heizei_koukousei 198 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 I have been hearing about this title a lot more lately. Glad to see a project for it. I hope that you get all the kinks worked out so you can begin working~ 1 Chifuyu-chan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoom909 145 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 I'm glad to hear about it too, it was looking for a while there that people had lost interest in older titles. There is a certain set of games from the previous decade that for nostalgia reasons I've always kind of wanted to see get translated, and this is one of them. 1 Chifuyu-chan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kosakyun 789 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 Yeah, I'm also one of those. I'm kind of happy with the hype we're getting. Might someone appear with a working tool and provide a helping hand. 1 Chifuyu-chan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chifuyu-chan 143 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 Why not ask help from SomeLoliCatgirl, or SLC? He has helped a lot of translation projects, so I don't see any reason for him to turn you down. Unless he's working on something right now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelebek1 106 Report post Posted November 9, 2014 This format is really weird. :| I can dump the actual _bp files, but I can't really figure out how the actual script files are read. The only interaction with the scripts that I can find, come from generic calls from scrmain and scrdrv. I'm not sure how it's able to actually read and process the scripts properly when all it does really is load values. Dumping/reinserting nothing but the strings shouldn't be much if a problem if you just fudge it (there may be a few rare cases of problems though), but that removes all possibility of things like adding a new string when you need more space. Difficult one here. 1 Chifuyu-chan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelebek1 106 Report post Posted November 9, 2014 Then I ask binaryfall how to read this script madness! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
binaryfail 95 Report post Posted November 9, 2014 I went the hard way and tried to write a disassembler for the game's scripts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelebek1 106 Report post Posted November 9, 2014 That's what I was doing, but for the _bp files. The game only reads the scripts that I could find, as specific values from the 0x8 load opcode from the _bp scripts (from the call at 0043DD6E), and then basically does absolutely nothing with them. It runs an AND on the value it loads, and that seems to be it. Where are you looking to see it load the opcodes? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
binaryfail 95 Report post Posted November 9, 2014 I'm actually just going in with a hex editor and playing the game to figure out the opcodes. So the opcode names are merely based on observing the game... some might be inaccurate until I go back and verify them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelebek1 106 Report post Posted November 9, 2014 Not sure how you're able to guess the data types purely from looking. :| Every time it reads the script though, it's always from the 0x8 opcode in scrmain at 0xbe. Opcodes and parameters alike. I really don't know what's up with this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks so much for continuing all of the hard work, and best of luck in completing the translation! Woooaah! Thank you very much! we're very much obliged. We are actually planning to release a partial patch of the prologue at a later date, I'll let you know in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chifuyu-chan 143 Report post Posted December 4, 2014 Progress updated. Things are slow but we'll eventually get to it. If anyone's curious about translation speed, well I don't have a clue too. I miraculously translated 300+ lines this week (Yes, I know that was slow) so I guess that sums it up. We're planning for a partial patch that covers the trial version of the game. And give me more lolis! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damn it Shizune! I realize that you're not currently looking for one, but if you need someone to edit images at some point I'd be glad to help. I'll make sure to message you when that time comes. We haven't been able to extract the images yet but that will come at a later date. Probably sooner after the tools have been dealt with..
