Delicious progress

Best thread of the week! Finally!

Another Togainu no Chi patch is supposed to be out by Christmas. Not the full thing, mind. Apparently JAST were sort of interested in it, but didn't want it at this point. Hence why the team are just going to continue releasing the patch as scheduled.

Holy fuck, at this rate we'll get it by the end of next year.

Looks like it'll be another Christmas without Umineko. N-not that I still care or anything.

>Fate/Hollow Ataraxia- 70.0% translated, second partial patch out
Wait, what happened? Last time I checked a week or two ago it was below 40%.

Just like clockwork...
Every Saturday at 9:00PM Eastern Standard Time.

Uh, no it wasn't. Check the archives.

>>8219573
Huh?

The second patch was over 40%, but that was around a year ago. I'm hoping we can get the third one out by New Year's.

>>8219573
It hit 40% over a year ago.

Is r07 still making a extra ep?

I hope that Baldr Sky thing was legit.

>>8219894
sure it was. and m**gy-dono already started translating baldr force

>>8219866

He's releasing a book at comiket called "Our Confessions" which ostensibly fills in the remaining mysteries in the series.

There's also going to be another VN composed of the TIPS that weren't included in Tsubasa. I think there may be a few new TIPS too.

>>8219913
>a book at comiket called "Our Confessions"
Wait, it's a book? I expected it to be a VN.

>>8219894

What Baldr Sky thing?

>>8219973

I don't think it's a new arc, so much as it is an answer booklet, basically. At best it might be written in character, but that's about it.

That doesn't exclude the possibility of an Umineko Rei in future comiket's though, but it looks like r07 is focusing on Higanbana for the moment.

>>8219982
Someone said the current baldr sky project had been abandoned, but there's been no confirmation

>>8220198
Why would you hope for that?

>>8220208
So we can get a new one?

>>8220216
i dont think it works like this

>>8219901
I'm sure you mean Moogy-donosama.

>>8220231
Some people intended to translate it some time ago, and stopped because "Strato considered the project active". Now, though unconfirmed and most probably false, it's up for grabs for anyone who wants their cock sucked, but that is still nothing to be happy for...

>>8220396

Is moogy dead?

>>8220396
I think you mean Moogy-heika-dono-sama, your ingratiate peon.

>>8220417
moogy-fucking-nigger-cupcake

>>8220404
You mean because a random guy on an internet message board said it's dead. Also, wasn't the guy who wanted to translate it going to machine translate it and hadn't even read it yet? That's a recipe for disaster.
Really though, nobody should even bother trying to take on a project the size of Baldr Sky as their first thing. The language isn't hard, but the game is enormous. You don't begin sculpting by ordering 3 tons of marble and you don't begin translating by starting with an 80 hour game.

>>8220514
Hey, I was one of the first to call bullshit when that guy posted it. And no, I'm not talking about the guy who wanted to machine translate it, it was some other guys about a year ago, I think.

Anyway, I still expect Ixrec to pick Baldr Sky up after Rewrite regardless what's it's status by the time. It's better to suck the cock of someone who's actually shown results, after all.

Hey guys, could someone give me a list of worthwhile VNs that have been released since May?

Musumaker seems to be active. This was posted on it's thread (http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php?p=3224198#post3224198):

Great news everyone. The translation is progressing again :D

RaurosFalls added a file and I managed to save the content of the .doc file in a game friendly format.

stefanus1807 came out of hiding and stated he will do some translating again. He came up with the idea to use Google Docs for the translation as it makes it a whole lot easier for several people to work together. It will also place all files at a single location rather than searching though this thread to find individual files. As a bonus there is no issue about setting up the text editor to the right format as the format is "Google format". However Google and the game uses different file formats with different character encodings and because of this I improved the script to work as a bridge between those two formats. It's now able to read both formats and it always writes files in both formats (two files for each input file).

Everybody interested in doing some translation should PM me with his/her gmail address and I will add sharing.

"Teninai" (天使のいない12月) text insertion challenge: 15 minutes into hour 1 of 24.

There's something about this text that feels a lot... "denser" than the other Japanese I've seen.

>>8226140
Probably because it's not japanese

>>8226154
What.

Whatever, it shouldn't matter in the end if all that's needed is for it to become English.

>>8226140
that's the chinese translation, you downloaded a prepatched version or something

>>8226154
>>8226179
This won't stop cudder. No language can.

>>8226140
Fuck I laughed so hard.

Does the Baldr Sky project have a webpage or something? Google turns up no meaningful results.

>>8226140
Looks like either traditional Chinese or taiwanese patch to me.

>>8226280
How new are you?

I doublt it but, anybody planning to translate haganai PSP game ? Released in January 2012..

As we come up to the end of the 2nd hour, I've gotten the installation archive format documented, the engine decompiled (it went well, since they used a good compiler AND good design), and am just inspecting the code.

>>8226179
>>8226283
Very good, it should be easier to understand the script format now if the original Japanese version can be found to compare with, enabling text insertion much sooner than I expected.

That's all for today. Will resume work tomorrow.

>>8226280
The last time I checked, Baldr Sky didn't have a translation project, it had a trollslation project. But I could be wrong, maybe the situation's changed since I last looked. Is it still that way?

>>8226315
If you don't like someone for not knowing a basic fact, just ignore him. No need to go out of your way to call him new.

I honestly hope Baldr Sky never gets translated.

>>8226332
Why, because having read it will no longer be a super exclusive club for the chosen ones?

>>8226336
Don't reply to purposefully elitist silly statements like that, they're made precisely to get you annoyed.

Update on Koitate
http://www.vn-meido.com/k1/index.php/topic,167.msg13460.html#msg13460

So there was a Baldr Force page on TLWiki some time ago, but it got deleted. Was it C&D'd?

>>8226346
m**gy-dono deleted it

>>8226353
For what reason? And is it really
>project starting up
again?

>>8226332
Worried about the fanbase becoming shit like MuvLuv?

I know how you feel, but at least we'll always have /m/, who are somewhat decent.

>>8226358
The /m/ threads full of people fapping to TSF designs make me glad it got translated.

>>8226320
Despite all the trollslation bullshit, cudder is probably one of our better hackers, for all it's worth. If this leads to a December with angels, I'll be satisfied.

>>8226612
I'd like to see results before I make any judgment. Anybody can say 'I'm almost done inserting the text!'

>>8226329
But it's no fun if you don't make him feel bad about it, right >>8226315?
(Not sarcasm, but not completely serious either.)

>>8226321
the last time you checked, the trollslation project was the 'shoulda been aborted fetus babby' of masat01

>>8226672
And has Stratos announced anything about his own translation in the meantime?

>>8226612
He's really not. And the fact that there already are Chinese and Taiwanese translations of this Angels game means that the tools already exist. Probably anybody capable of using a Chinese search engine could find them.

>>8226681
Aren't those official localizations? Why would they make them public?

>>8226692
>official localizations
>Chinese

You have got to be shitting me, brodude.

>Yandere - 22.2% translated

Waiting warmly

>>8226692
What is this assumption even based on? Is it absolutely nothing? Because it sounds like absolutely fucking nothing since the group's homepage is a Chinese pirating forum.

>>8226681
I think that the main problem with this engine (if there's any) is not about extraction/insertion of text but with displaying english text thereafter. In the worst case of hellish archive/script format or complex engine algorithms of handling them, insertion can be done by some external injection (i.e. substitute source string with translated one AFTER it was read to the memory but BEFORE displaying). But that technique is meaningless if the engine can't display ANSI strings in the right way.

>>8226755
Same here, I want to see whats the fuss is about with the heroines and MC.
Are the heroines cute yandere or fucking psychos? Is the MC funny retarded or "don't go in there nigga, she got a knife" retarded?

>>8226784
There is no fuss. It's a godawful cash-in on a niche fad with bad art. Nothing more. It's the "Vampyre Girls Gone Wild" of eroge.

>>8226759
I dunno, I think someone said something like that in one thread, and I didn't find it weird because manga and LN's are actually localized. My bad.

>>8220198

If anything it's going to be going faster now that Stratos isn't translating Haruhi LNs anymore.

>>8220543

Well, he does plan on doing it eventually.

>>8226346

Well, not really, but GIGA had C&D'd other games on TLwiki.

>>8226346
>>8226354
GIGA emailed Moogy and told him to stop working on it.

>>8227566
>If anything it's going to be going faster now that Stratos isn't translating Haruhi LNs anymore.

Assuming he's even working on it, which as many have said, is very much in doubt.

>>8227592

Ammy asked him if he was doing it because Ixrec wanted to translate and he said he had a significant portion of a route done.

>>8227592
What reason does anyone have to believe him? He hasn't done anything that he finished since 2007.

>>8227613
Yeah, calling total bullshit on this.

will you ever stop whining about it go find him strato and bitch at him fucking faggots every fucking week you fucking shitsucking retards could learn japanese already whiny cunts

>>8227588
Damn. Guess I'll go play the Chinese patch with a dictionary since even though my Chinese is elementary it's better than my Japanese.

>>8227636

That's your job as a /jp/ skeptic, I guess. Of course, you wouldn't believe anything I said other than "he's dropped it" so I don't even know why I try.

Wasn't there a rumor that Strato became the official translator for Haruhi books?

>>8227613
Wasn't that like 2 years ago?

>>8227643
You should try something other than raising your arms to the sky and telling people to have faith in unseen forces with no evidence backing them.

>>8227613
>a route
It's been years now, how much is "a route"?

>>8227646

It's not a rumor, his name is on like the 2nd fucking page of the first 4 books.

>>8227649

No, just a month or two ago.

>>8227650

There's not really anyway to get real proof and you wouldn't believe it anyway. Besides, you have no proof he dropped it.

>>8227652

A route is 1/3rd of each game.

How high is the chance of Ixrec picking up Baldr Sky after Rewrite?

>>8227658

He's translating something after Rewrite that isn't Baldr Sky, but I'd say pretty high after that since he doesn't seem to give a fuck about what anyone else is doing.

>>8227658
99.99% unless he has a way to make sure that Strato is actually doing it.

A significant portion of a route eh? Oh boy that's probably like 1/10th of Dive 1 in like a year and a half. Only 13 more years to go. 28 years for the entire game. Can't wait.

>>8227665
He pretty much considers Strato's project dead.

http://amaterasu.is.moelicious.be/forums/index.php?topic=924.msg19053#msg19053

>>8227671
what are you going to do about it

>>8227676

That was before he contacted him. He's probably still going to do it anyway.

Really, you twats? You seriously think that Ixrec has already decided what he'll be translating three projects away in 2013?

>>8227722
A profile, Sharnoth and Forest were all already decided soon after Alternative. It's his very own autism flavor.

>>8227722
>three projects away
What's he doing after Rewrite?

>>8227734
They're all also very short. Rewrite is longer than all of them combined.

>>8227770
hopefully ruitomo or oretsuba

Somebody should do I/0 instead of those other games.

>>8227809
I/0 is pretty mediocre though

>>8227785
But he hasn't said anything, has he?

>>8227816
Why? I heard it was amazing.

>>8227809
I'm doing I/O after I finish Never7 and Higurashi Daybreak (the latter which shouldn't take that long to translate).

>>8227782
In what ways has Ixrec indicated that he's going to do Baldr Sky? If he's been interested in it for some time why did they go for Forest and Rewrite before it?

>>8227917
Because Strato, or so I hear...

Strato has actually finished it already and is waiting for Christmas to release it. You people'd love that, wouldn't you.;_;

Katawa Shoujo might be this month.

>>8227955
Do you know if that's gonna be just Dive 1 or the whole thing?

>>8227917

Not publicly, of course. And he's not doing it now because he's going to wait and see if Stratos makes any real progress on it.

>>8227963
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boy_Who_Cried_Wolf

>>8228014
It seems to me you can't into spoilers...

>>8228040
Yeah, you're right. I herped.

Does Strato have a blog or a way to keep up with the translation project?

>>8228052
If he did, we wouldn't be in complete uncertainty about the status of the project.

So when is Mangagamer gonna reveal they're doing Little Busters?

>>8228094
My bet would be JAS- I mean, fuck you.

>>8228054
Well, yeah. I looked and couldn't find one. Except sometimes translators keep blogs for official shit and then there's dirt dug up on IRC or something.

Get seiha and Ammy to fight over Baldr Sky. That'll flush Strato out if he's actually done anything.

>>8228249
Well Ixrec has already stated he considers Strato's project to be pretty much a non-entity at this point, because even if it is actually moving the progress it has shown is not acceptable by his standards.

I think there is a pretty good chance of it getting translated after Rewrite, considering how well he reviewed the two titles. As far as Seiha... Has he actually expressed interest in doing this, or is that just wild speculation? I'd accept him too, I guess. Or better yet let him and Ixrec team up and finish the whole thing in like two months.

>>8228280
I can imagine those beasts doing it like it's nothing.

>>8228280
It'd be awesome if they compete against each other and then proofread each other's translations until they finally reach a middle point taking the best of each other's work. Sure, there'd be overwork, but that'd be the best translation of a VN for years to come.

>>8227658
who knows? he said he's going to be focusing on longer vns now, as those are the ones he tends to like the most. i think there's probably a good chance, but something like ruitomo, parfait, subahibi, ikusa megami zero, and saihate no ima also have have a chance.

>>8229222
Not that I don't want to see Baldr Sky translated, but I'm personally hoping he'll do SubaHibi next.

>>8229222
Isn't IMZ already getting translated, albeit slowly?

It was 6% at the start of this year when he started it back in 2008 was it? So 6% in 3years and you guys expect him to complete the rest of 94% in 10months?
How deluded can you guys be.

Only one person and VNTS are defending Strato, everyone else understands the fact that nothing is getting done.

>>8230211

>>8230211
The point is the community seems to have some absurd sense of entitlement where it's completely unacceptable for a translator with other issues (job, whatever) to progress slowly, and as long as some other guy can provide faster it's perfectly ok for him to be an asshole about the whole thing.
All it sounds to me is children crying

>>8230230
Huh? It's the other way around, man. The translator feels entitled to stake his claim on the project, even if he knows damn well there are others that are both willing and able to do the thing ten times faster than he ever could, even if he didn't have those issues. Why shouldn't he hand it off, if he's having such a hard time of it?

>>8230230
But the community wants it done more quickly. There are limits to how 'slowly' a translator can move before the community wants him replaced, you know. That's why the F/HA TLWiki project started up to replace the existing translator who was moving at something like 5% a year, and as it is Strato is moving even slower than that.

>>8230242

>>8230245
community stop whining and translate it then

>>8230242
>>8230245
case in point, the children crying to the other parent because they didn't get the toy they wanted

>>8230256
And why does the community have any obligation to not switch to the other parent to get said toy? It's not like they owe the slow translator anything in the way children owe their parents everything. The only thing they owe him for is for picking up the project in the first place, and if he's doing a terribly slow job of it that obligation goes out the window.

>>8230256
Hello Strato

>>8230256
Why shouldn't another translator be allowed to take up the project if they know they can do it better? You act like we all owe him some debt of gratitude simply for being the first to take on the project, and that now we have a duty of loyalty to never allow anyone else to translate it except him. And you know, if it were a difference of, say, 6 months to 8 months, then I might agree with you. But in this case you're just being a fucking retard who is in effect saying "Well, he's giving you something for free, so how DARE you try to take what someone else is giving you for free instead" which is some fucking incomprehensible bullshit.

>>8230270
>Why shouldn't another translator be allowed to take up the project if they know they can do it better?
I never said anything about other translators doing things, I was talking about all the people clamoring for another translator because they deserve better, there's a difference.

>>8230286
The same point holds. THE PEOPLE DO NOT OWE THE SLOW TRANSLATOR ANYTHING. They have no obligation to give their support to someone who, though clearly well-meaning, will not finish the project within a meaningful timeframe. On the other hand they SHOULD give their support to someone who is willing and able to translate the game.

>>8230295
>someone who is willing and able to translate the game.
who? who is willing to translate it? does he have a name? does he exists? where is he? why cant he translate it now? what stops him?

>>8230295
Sense of entitlement though the fucking roof.

>>8230286
Nobody has claimed we deserve better. We have noted that another translator has expressed interest in the project, and are just theorizing about and discussing this.
>>8230309
Ixrec has made some statements about how he might want to translate it, and he rated both titles fairly highly. Obviously that's nowhere near confirmed yet, but it's a possibility.
>>8230311
And what the fuck would you have us do? Are we not allowed to talk about the likelihood of a change in translators at all? The only one who has even implied that we are "entitled" to anything is you guys. The rest of us are just expressing excitement and interest that a title we're interested in might actually get translated in the near future.

>>8230320

Are we reading the same threads? You know, the ones full of whining about it?

>>8230334
This may shock you, but people do become disappointed when they are promised something and it is not delivered.

>>8230337
maybe you should express your disappointment to the person who promised 'something' to you AND NOT FUCKING WHINE FOR TWO FUCKING YEARS ON A COMPLETELY UNRELATED IMAGEBOARDS

>>8230348
So you're saying it would be better if we'd go find a way to harass Strato himself?

Also I fail to see how the VN translation thread is unrelated to discussion of a VN translation project.

>>8230348
Somebody complained to somebody else about something somewhere.

Why do you care? Have you been personally insulted in some way?

>>8230337
>when they are promised something
As far as I know the guy just picked it up without promising anyone anything, though. There's the sense of entitlement again.
Sometimes I really wonder if this thread serves a purpose other than create hype and make people whine at all.

>>8230352
you can harass anyone. just shut the fuck up

and there is no discussion just constant whining

>>8230370
Actually, right now people are discussing the fact that another translator has expressed interest in the project.

>>8230379

Aside from the fact that you yourself are autistic, I have no idea what you're talking about.

This reminds of the way that AGTP was being a slowpoke as usual with one of their translations, another group released a translation for the same game out of fucking nowhere. Only AGTP's pride was hurt, but no one gave a fuck about it since everyone got the translation and it eventually was better than what they later released.

If things like these happen on other translation communities that are also filled with drama, why should anyone care about another translator picking up the same project? And don't give me that resources management bullshit, because no one should be forced to not translate something that they want to. That is an actual sense of entitlement.

>>8230556
I nominate this for /jp/ post of the year 2011

>>8230717
no one picked up anything

>>8230717
> why should anyone care about another translator
In case you missed half the thread, people don't care about other people picking up the project as much as seeing people whine because the current one isn't fast enough for their standards despite there being no other established project

>>8230734
>people
That's a funny way of typing "I".

>>8230752
I'm not the only one who posted arguments from my side of things so that's a nice imaginary world you built up there.

>>8230734
Part of the argument was one or two people sucking on Stratos' dick like it was the most natural thing for them to do.

>>8230778
Substitute Statos with Ixrec and you have the other side of the argument.

I sure am glad that I learned Japanese and I am free from all this drama.

>>8230779
Who was sucking Ixrec's dick? We're just acknowledging that he has a track record of getting shit done when he says he's going to get shit done, so seeing baldr sky in his hands would be a change for the better.

>Fate/Hollow Ataraxia- 70.0% translated
I wonder if we'll get the new patch this year.

http://tlwiki.org/index.php?title=Iambic_Inganock

>>8230944
I'm completely fine with this. INganock's translation was pretty bad.

>>8230944
Wow, maybe I'll actually read it this time.

looks we will never get Air fully translated,right?did those monks put a curse on the game itself too?

>>8230971
Just wait until the thousandth summer.

>>8230971
Misuzu's spirits wants to avoid more suicides from readers.

>>8230360
That's idiotic, the moment you pick up a project, especially in the VN translation community, it's expected that you finish it because no one else will pick it up for a long time. Especially when the translator in question has a good reputation (like Strato).

>>8230413
There's speculation about the bogus information from last thread that Strato might have confirmed that he dropped the project, you retard. But of course, all I see in your post is
>I'm a retard with no reading comprehension
>（　´_ゝ`）

>>8230360
The main purpose of this thread is in the OP posts. The rest of what happens just serves to keep it bumped for a few days and give a bit of light discussion until the next one comes around.

Moogy got banned from Amaterasu forums and the whole forum died down. This is what happens when you oppose Moogy-dono.

>>8231283
Tell me what happened!

>>8231283
Why did the idiot get banned for, again?

>>8231313
A hottie was all up in his kool-aid and was lookin to break off a lil sumthin sumthin but the crew gave the 411 on dat skank and he was all about the bling bling

>>8231315
for "being an arse" which, while true, coming from one of the forums with the flimiest moderation I've ever seen is just gold

>>8231324
Could someone please translate what the nubian just said?

>>8231336
Oh.

Well, it's not as if moogy actually translates anything.

>>8231338
Sheeta was jelly Ixrec was more interested in Moogy's opinions than hers.

>>8231368
She really should realize no one is interested in the opinions of some yaoi loving lardass.

Scroll down to the 3rd to last post on the page. That's the post he got banned for

>>8231419
He got banned for criticizing part of Ixrec's translation?

Someone post a picture of that sheeta girl, I wanna see if she's fappable.

>>8231419
That's...it? Laaame. That's not even very rude, Ixrec didn't even get mad.

What a letdown.

>>8231455
Yeah. I could understand if he was nitpicking for the sake of it, but that line really is translated like shit so I guess they were just butthurt or something.

>>8231482
Sup moogy.

>>8231368

>>8231500

>>8231495
Going by /jp/ standards who ISN'T moogy around here?

>>8229300
Some translator hinted around September that a certain person or group were secretly working on it.

>>8231500
I actually chuckled at one of yuyucow's comments but Sheeta sounds like she's got all of Sahara in her vagina with her forum rules.

>>8231565
That doesn't exactly inspire much confidence.

>still no LB
All I ever asked for was to be Kyousuke's little shota friend. Is that really too much asked?

Too bad the translator quit the internet to play video games all day.

Well hey, he's built up 250 wins in LoL in a month and a half. Surely that's an accomplishment worth being proud of! Who needs to translate when you can be a professional LoL player that only plays fucking Cait?

Not posting doesn't mean he's banned. He could have just lost interest in a slow forum.

>>8231663

I am glad I never got into that shit. It sounds like a time sink that one cannot escape.

>>8231686
He made the tlwiki forum specifically because he was banned from there, I was lurking the tlwiki irc channel. He really was banned for that post.

EXPECT A MERRY DESIRE

3 DAYS

>>8231686
Oh and by banned I mean he can browse but not reply.

It's funny considering Ammy originally derived so much of its legitimacy from the fact that Moogy hung out there, and now that they have no need for him anymore they just cast him aside so easily.

>Moogy i've been banned from both the irc channel and forums for a while
>Moogy saying that one of ixrec's translations was wrong
>Moogy i dunno sheeta banned me

>>8231700
[citation needed]
I just find illogical that he'd be banned when Ixrec wasn't even mad, unless Sheeta did without asking or something.

>>8231710
The staff does that on a regular basis.

>>8231663

The best part is how bad he is after playing the same champs so many times.

>>8231708
Moog pls go.

>>8231709
>Moogy i dunno sheeta banned me
Well, I can believe that. I still don't think he'd keep being banned if he asked Ixrec though.

It's still Ixrec's fault for letting a woman have that authority though.

>>8231710
Ixrec has no power when the hambeast decides it's time to be an independent WOMYN.

>>8231722
He might break 1:1 KD sometime around 1,000 wins, i.e. sometime January.

>>8231723
What, are you denying it? Moogy being there really cemented them as finally having made it in the big time of VN translations. And now they all think they're better than him or something, just because his popularity has waned. It's pathetic. Those shallow fucks actually did him a favor by banning him.

Fuck moogy.
He thinks a hipster piece of shit.

I don't think he'll ever get much better at the game, especially if he only plays with retards at similar skill levels as himself.
