A project for Kara no Shoujo has materialized out of thin air. Thus, the finalists have changed.

Kara no Shoujo will be dropped from the finals, and the candidate which used to be 11th place will now become a finalist.

The new list of finalists is as follows:

11eyes
Baldr Sky Dive1 "LostMemory"
Eden* They Were Only Two, On The Planet
France Shoujo ~Une Fille Blanche~
I/O
Kimi ga Nozomu Eien
MuvLuv Alternative
My girlfriend is the PRESIDENT

<Apoptosis> Well when I had first conceived of the project
<Apoptosis> My friend directed me to the visualnovel forums
<Nagato> oh, i didn't realize Apoptosis was here too
<Apoptosis> And people there requesting hackers and such
<Apoptosis> Got told that "You should do at least xx% of the game to prove you're serious"
<Raide> ah I see
<Sheeta> I think I remember that thread
<Apoptosis> So I just went off and did my thing
<Raide> you did the right thing
<izmos> fair enough indeed
<Apoptosis> Well lo and behold today I see that someone is potentially going to work on this game
<Ixrec> awesome timing though
<Apoptosis> So my friend told me to go talk to Ixrec
<Apoptosis> And work things out and see what could be done

Confirmed real copy pasta from Ixrec IRC.

[20:45:56] <kViN> Ixrec, please say "No I won't absolutely ignore Extra and Unlimited if Alternative wins"
[20:46:02] <kViN> so I can paste it every time someone says we shouldn't vote for MLA
[20:46:14] * Ixrec|asleep is now known as Ixrec
[20:46:32] <&Ixrec> there is a strong possibility I will translate a significant portion of Extra and Unlimited in the event Alternative wins
------
<Ixrec> Swan Song's pretty easy, yeah
<izmos> and you liked it right
<Ixrec> there's one scene with a bunch of Buddhist terminology I didn't know
<Ixrec> 9.5/10 yeah, just a little
<Ixrec> and that's it unless you find text walls hard
<izmos> seems like to me it's a pretty good idea to do it as a side project indeed. I can only see it or some really large stuff to win
<Ixrec> if something huge wins
<Ixrec> like the rules say
<Ixrec> the runner up will likely be done between partials
<Ixrec> unless runner up is also huge
<Ixrec> then I'll just make an executive decision and everyone will live with it
<izmos> which means that if Swan song gets to be the top second it'll be translated, unless for some reason a surprising short/medium vn wins
------
<~Nagato> swan song is basically tied to muvluv at this point i think
<~Nagato> if muvluv wins, swan song will most likely be taken up as a side project in between the 3 games
-------
<Ixrec|SnI> 1.5 years is reasonable counting all my breaks and Swan Song

Too bad Baldr Skys chances to win are so abysmal now that Muv-Luv Alternative is in it. I want my delicious Rain.

We really should push for dive1 tough as >>3766271 , that is after really likely scenario in the case that dive1 wins. And I wish people would realize that if ML Alternative wins we wont be getting anything else than it (and the small side project, most likely swan song) for about 1,5 years and it would take around year to ixrecs to get at the start of alternative where the good stuff starts. And the trolling would be humongous untill then as EX/UL are avarage compared what we could get instead of them.

Haa...I'll just come out and post it with my trip.
Yes. That was me. I announced the project even earlier than that, actually ( http://archive.easymodo.net/cgi-board.pl/jp/thread/2544575 ), but hacking failed and the project failed to take off. As one of the translators stated, "I had really lost hope about this".
However, we recently ran into somebody who is probably able to hack the game, and both of the translators are still interested in translating it. This means that most likely, this time the project WILL take off.

However, because of the stuff that happened the first time around, I' m a little hesitant to just say "a Yosuga no Sora project has started!".
(That post is so far still my only tripfag post where I was wrong with news concerning a VN project. Sorry I jumped the gun back then, it doesn't happen very often that a project with translators fails because there's no hacker.)

Reverse engineering is a lot more than just extracting and inserting text and being able to work a hex editor. It includes archive and file formats (also including compressions and encryptions), working out kinks in the engine due to English text (speed, display, wordwrapping), and patching methods. Then there bytecoded scripts which are different from games using plain text scripts and require more skill like being able to write a decompiler and compiler. If a game has a protection on the EXE and you need to remove it, that's even more you need to know. You also need to know how to get past anti-debugging code. For most engines, an understanding of WinAPI will help greatly and an understanding of how VN engines (or virtual machines in general) work helps too. It gets even more complex than this if you want to work on something like rUGP.
