/vr/ - Retro Games

this man is an emissary from god
how does he do it so fast? probably there isn't that much text in the game but still

wish my third world money weren't so devaluated, I would totality shill some cash

>>5700586
Probably doesn´t stick to the cucked bullshit of most translators and translator groups

>>5700579
Nice, this guy works fast

>>5700674

>Yeah I'm not fixing that
uhh

>>5701112
These porn scenes in this porn game that I'm translating sure are problematic haha. I only play porn games for the action scenes unlike those problematic perverts.

>>5700579
nice, another translation! got it working in neko project 2.
gotta change the gdc clock to 2.5 and slap in that edited anex font file

>>5700579
Is someone translating PC98 retro games?

...do the Lakers have a chance?

>>5701231
>...do the Lakers have a chance?
Why don't you request it from the guy?

How do I emulate PC98 games bros?

>>5701267
Apparently you can do it in one of the Dosbox variants now

Ugh. I don't want your sticky EOP fingers on anonym game.

>>5701112
So it's a translation for the 4 people who actually wanted to know the plot of Night Slave but are unable or unwilling to learn Japanese. Everyone else will just play in moonrunes and get the proper experience.

But yeah, it's fucking hilarious seeing someone translate a PORN game and fuck up the porn and say they won't fix it.

>>5701052
>>5701064

what do you mean "slap in"? i use neko project 2 too, please tell where i put it

I wish I could share that awesome soundtrack with you guys.

>>5701219
Are the porn scenes still fast?

>>5700984
game?

>>5701561
Use mega

>>5701636
Can't upload it there, the archive is ~570Mo since I used flac.
Currently uploading on uploadfiles but I have to run, I'll post the link when I get back home.

>>5700579
So instead of spending 10 years to become fluent in Japanese you waited 23 years for someone else to translate it for you?

>>5701719
How dare they spend their life doing other things, why can't everyone drop everything they're doing and learn Japanese?

>>5701813
If you have time to collect plastic toys you're probably not a very busy person.

>>5701813
As if an EOP simpleton like you was doing anything worthwhile. Licking bus windows and stealing coins out of fountains maybe.

Thanks man. This OST is just awesome : Hard Rushin, Layered Night and Turn Over are some of my favorite videogame tracks.

did tl guy mentioned what is his next project?

Why do all these Japanese computer games have such cool names but the actual gameplay is just a typical portopia clone, or worse, a VN? Were Japanese computers dogshit at rendering any sort of action like IBM computers, forcing them to make slow games with pretty art instead?

>>5705765
You already know the answer, no dedicate scrolling hardware, it had to be done through software which was hella slow. Commander Keen was groundbreaking for having miraculously fast scrolling and that still ran at 35 fps or some dumb shit like that.

>>5705765
>Were Japanese computers dogshit at rendering any sort of action like IBM computers, forcing them to make slow games with pretty art instead?
Yes. The PC-98 was a business computer like the IBM PC. It had high resolution and good colors for its time, but no hardware sprite or scrolling support. The X68000 and FM Towns had those things, but their home marketshare was negligible compared to NEC's, so basically all they got were lazy ports.

The PC-98 eventually got more advanced graphics accelerators similar to VGA and even Voodoo cards, but by then cheap AT clones running Windows were taking over the market.

>>5705765
The games are made for adults who care more about complex plots and deep strategy than twitch action.

>>5703158
any info on this?

>>5706261
>The games are made for adults who care more about complex plots and deep strategy
Yeah i know what PLOTS and how deep you're talking about here senpai

>>5705765
Isn't this a weird place to ask this question considering this game actually has action gameplay?

>>5706887
and fast-paced one

A GOD

If only those games were good though

>>5705765

>>5705765

Commander Keen was like the first PC game to have smooth scrolling, and even then it visually was less visually interesting than Famicom-Super Famicom games.

The hardware wasn't cut out for it, and if ID can't get much out of it, don't expect much from these other devs.

>>5701938
nice

>>5708846
>>5705804
>Commander Keen was groundbreaking for having miraculously fast scrolling and that still ran at 35 fps or some dumb shit like that.

I guess westeros proggers really are homosuperior!

>>5709549
it's not about being good at programming, it's about hardware

on old hardware made for gaming purposes with low memory capabilities, the graphics were generated from tiles and sprites. some of that hardware lets you offset these tiles by X amount of pixels horizontally and vertically, creating an illuson of scrolling

hovewer if you had IBM PC instead, your graphics card won't take any shortcuts and just uses a huge blob of memory describing each pixel and it's color separately. it's good for non-gaming purposes but unfortunately you must set each pixel separately, and that costs a lot of CPU time. no sprites, no tiles, all graphics must be generated by game itself, and this is slow.

>>5709681
>and this is slow.
Until you got to faster CPUs like 386 which ran circles around the competition.
And the frame buffer gave you full freedom on what to do.

I swear there's a metal or hard rock song claled "Night Slave".

>You are a night slave!

>>5704515

Can you rip the midis, or whatever the original music files are?

>>5711670
Are the other translations he did made up as well?

>>5701219
>gotta change the gdc clock to 2.5

I almost gave up on Neko Project because I couldn't figure out how to do this

>>5711675
Dunno.

I guess that 50 years old autistic faggot is trying to sabotage translation efforts.

You did it again, OP. You managed to post wonderful pixel art at pig disgusting filtered non-integer upscaled resolutions and shard your filthy, hefty collection of defiled screen captures on the retro video game board so that you could hog all of the space these servers offer to your puny sacrilegious deflate compressed bitmaps.

>>5711397
>Can you rip the midis, or whatever the original music files are?
I asked this on some PC-98 forum before but no, you can't just rip a "midi" out of the game files - you can rip something for a specialized PC-98 music file player, but not a generic midi file

>>5712823
deal with it

Huh, doesn't seem to be working on retroarch's np2-kai core. I'll check it out later, but I really don't want to use the actual np2 native client as the scaling is complete trash even if everything else is way better

>>5713826
Nevermind I'm retarded, should've read it's using a different font file. Sort of a shame this relies on edited fonts, I'm guessing with this method there's no way it's gonna work on actual hardware

>>5713896
I know his other games should work, people played at least Dead of The Brain on actual hardware

>>5713826
What the fuck is going on with the scaling in your screenshot? That looks horrendous.

>>5713962
It's JPEG fucking up

>>5713982
But that's not JPEG and it still looks like shit.

>>5714013
What a shame

>>5713960
>>5713896
Doesn't matter since it's all made up anyway.

Wasn't expecting the game to actually be fun, I always expect it was a sort of curiosity they managed to have an action game on the system that doesn't run like a powerpoint presentation, but it's actually fun enough. The bosses actually feel pretty good. The character movement has that appropriate heavy mecha feel while not still actually feeling too restrictive and slow, very similar to Assault Suit Leynos.
I am however starting to lose patience with the dialogue, it's not a surprise but the story isn't really interesting in any way, but however not even in a shlocky b-movie sort of way like Dead of The Brain was, it just feels like it's in the way of the action.

>>5714050
>it's not a surprise but the story isn't really interesting in any way,
Ignore the stupid rewrite.

>>5714050
It turns out PC98 novels have really boring writing. Who woulda thought that?!

>>5713962
2.7x

>>5714162
No, it turns out a fake translation is a bad way to experience them.

>>5714186
MUH AUTHENTICITY Shut up, just admit the writing is awful.

>>5714162
Some don't. But they're admittedly the exception.

>>5714186
Look, post comparison screenshots if you want to be taken seriously or else you're just a faggot troll.

>>5714192
The "translation" is awful.

>>5714197
See >>5711476

>>5714186
autistic faggot at it again, didn't you notice that your fud isn't working?

>>5711337
Unrelated, but the first thing that comes up when I search for "Nightshade" is a softcore porn movie about vampires.

Anyone figured out what GUN-W and SUB-W does?

>>5714561
GUN-W increases the level of your weapon.
SUB-W increases the level of your sub-weapon.

Look at the numbers on the top right of the screen. The increase isn't instantaneous, you actually need various upgrades before "leveling" the weapon/sub-weapon up. In the webm here >>5714050, the guy needs one more GUN-W to level the Assault Rifle up to level 2.

That's really dumb, but that's how it is. IIRC, the max level was either 4 or 5?

>>5714649
Oh nice, it seems like a cool mechanic as long as it's not temporary

>>5714649
assault rifle has 5 levels, rest of main and sub weapons have 3 levels.

>>5714682
weapon upgrades carry over missions.

I have this nagging feeling the default dosbox configs the translatorbro did makes the game run faster than was intended, as I can't see to perform the continuous quadruple tap sprint with this speed.

>>5705765
>ere Japanese computers dogshit at rendering any sort of action like IBM computers, forcing them to make slow games with pretty art instead?
yes

>>5714682
>it seems like a cool mechanic as long as it's not temporary
It's permanent but also kind of questionable because of the difficulty spike that is the last mission that makes it hell if you didn't upgrade the right weapon (it's the Laser)

>>5714903
Nah, the same happened to me in Neko Project II, in the original version.

>>5714034
Its not, this game I'm not sure what the fuck is going on. But the first 2 where fine, even slowbeef who started the Dead of The Brain translation even game the dude money for it.

If you wanna bitch about it hit the dude up on his patreon or twitter

>>5714197
>>5714206
Wow, you shit-eaters will defend even the worst piece of shit """translations""".

All because you're too lazy to learn Japanese and can't stand the fact that others did. Instead you cling to a """translator""" that pretends to know Japanese.

>>5714903
Was the made up translation also intended to make the game run faster?

>>5715379
So autistic faggot makes a claim, but fails to provide proof. KEK, what a pathetic faggot.

Now go over entire script and point every and each mistake with proper "translation" correction or fuck off. Single porn scene with liberal translation is not proof of poor translation btw, sweetie.

I don't like this boss

>>5716350
It's not a porn scene. It's regular dialog between Chiho and Erika and Rei and Erika.
Nobody is going to translate the whole game for you just to prove somebody is a scammer.

>>5714050
>I am however starting to lose patience with the dialogue, it's not a surprise but the story isn't really interesting in any way
I liked it

>>5716484
You probably shouldn't have shot missiles into Erika's face at the start there

>>5716542
it is porn scene and 4 other lines taken out of larger context, that is it. So either provide proof that ENTIRE translation is crap or fuck off.

>>5716562
>provide proof that ENTIRE translation is crap
Sane people only need to see a few lines that are completely made up before they understand that a translation is gibberish. Why are you defending garbage this hard?

>>5716561
It's a big brain strategy, you probably wouldn't get it if I explained it

Game started to run at below 1FPS suddenly
Did this happen to anyone?

The madman completely rewrote or omitted parts of Makyouden too. See for yourself >>5700672

I dunno how you defend rewrites like this.

>>5718197
Ok. Beg whoever to hire you or translate it yourself and hire a hack to patch it in!

>>5718679
I'm fine with enjoying the Japanese original. It's just sad seeing people clamor for these rewritten machine translations.

Favourite Steel Fox girl?

The rewrites kinda muddy the water though

>>5719149
She's saying "don't worry, I won't let my guard down" in the original

>>5719149
As a Euroafrican I've got to say Notty, even if she has no discernible personality.

>>5719258
>>5719149
jesus fucking christ

>>5719258
It's that the line before? Rei's not saying anything about love or anything but at least she mentions Chiho's name.
The Youtube playthrough is rushing through the text so you probably overlooked it.
>【千帆】麗......気をつけてね。
>【千帆】......無理、しないで。
>【麗】千帆......。
>【麗】大丈夫......油断はしないよ。

He's done so fast because he doesn't understand bits and makes shit up in their place.

>>5719678
that still makes sense though, and it doesnt say "i love you" at all in that dialouge. he's just asking her to be careful

>dozens of good games waiting to be translated
>translates a shitty porn game
epic, simply epic

>>5720393
You should probably play the game

>>5700579
torrent plz!

>>5700579
Any way I can play these on an android tablet?

>>5720695
You can directly download the game from the page

>>5720725
Yep, get Retroarch, download the Neko Project II Kai core and get the hdi file from the zip and run it. Works good once you remap the pad buttons and set GDC clock to 2.5

>>5720950
>>5720954
The English is the Patreon dude's translation? Cause once again it's full rewrites and omissions. I mean, the basic gist is there, he probably got it from machine translations, but details are cut and what's there is scrambled around and very simplified.

If this came out as the game's official translation back then, now it would be considered one of those badly rushed localizations.

>>5720979
And alterations for practically no reason like
>了解した
translated to
>Bang. Bang.

I wonder what his motives are. Does he think he's a writer who wants to tell the story in his own way?
Maybe he's trying to make shitty 90s translations.

>>5720996
Why don't all you 'Japanese fluent' playboys just translate games yourselves, I wonder? Lord knows you have nothing better to do.

>>5721032
Have you ever tried translating something? Translating takes a lot of skill and time, it's not something you can magically do just because you know multiple languages. I have better wastes for my time than cater to idiots incapable of learning the language.

>>5721032
Because noone owes you anything.

>>5721043
>>5721058
Here come the excuses. You can rip on shit translations all you want but nobody else gave it to these plebs in how many years so after somebody does wtf you bitching when you claim you could translate it, but don't. All ten or fifteen of the scrubs who now get to play these games would have never played it if the turd gurgling translator never did it, and never would have known the translation was shit if they weren't told. I think no matter what everyone just wants everything to be shit and everyone to be miserable.

>>5721075
>when you claim you could translate it, but don't
Where did I claim I could translate it?
I have no interest in translating. I'm fundamentally opposed to translations.
All these plebs have to do is stop being plebs and learn Japanese like we did.

>>5721075
I don't buy into the blissful ignorance excuse. Cry me a river.

>>5721079
Fair enough, I give you a pass, but all these other mf'ers are still on my list.
>>5721080
Dude, my understanding is that these games have gameplay that either sucks or is a chore and most people played it for the story, and were loving it before finding out the translation is a hackjob. Therefore IMO the plebs were living in bliss in their little huts before being enlightened by messiahs who offered nothing in return. Am I wrong?

>>5721095
That's like the opposite of what >>5714050 said.

>>5721095
>>5721103
Here the story matters less. It's a real problem in Dead of the Brain and Makyouden though. The appeal of Makyouden is the world it presents, which the Patreon dude completely twisted.

Perhaps the dream he sold us was more valuable than any translation.

How do I get these to work on dosbox through retroarch? I'd love to play them but i'm going on a 2 month+ trip without my computer soon and want to shove them on my phone to play during downtime
Or is there a specific pc98 emu that might be better?

>>5720996
lmao damn oh no there was an alliteration that wasn't there originally, that's... fucked up.
TRANSLATOR BTFO WHAT WAS HE THINKING lmao xd

>>5721032
Sane people don't work for free, buddy. People who know Japanese have literally zero need for translations, why would they create them?

>>5721997
Stop falling for this scam.

>>5722153
So you're telling me that "Bang. Bang." is an appropriate way to tell someone that you understand their request and will take care if it?

Stop bumping this thread. Most people read only the first post and don't realize this is a scam.

>I'm fundamentally opposed to translations
You only read English native novels?

>>5723353
I read things in their original language.

>>5720996
Someone is still mad about Working Designs' cool translations :3

>>5723363
But noone can know Japanese!!!!!

>>5723364
You sound trans. Get it checked.

>>5721079
>I have no interest in translating. I'm fundamentally opposed to translations.
>i'm a neet faggot that can waste years of my life learning an useless language so everybody else needs to

pathetic
i wish more translations come out just to hurt your ass even harder

>>5723474
You should at least learn proper English before posting again.

>>5723474
That salt I'm seeing, does it stem from your own failure to learn?

>>5723474
What's funny is that the only people who are actually hurt by translations are the EOPs who consume them. You sit at the side of the road, begging everyone who passes you by for a sip of water. Most refuse, but occasionally a "good Samaritan" will give you a few drops. You then turn around with glee, bragging about how you got all that water for FREE, while we're sitting here with bottles filled with water because we hiked to the stream at the end of the road like everyone else.

You'll die on this road. You're just going to sit there for the next 70 odd years, because in your tiny delusional mind it somehow makes more sense to just sit and wait instead of do something about it.

>>5723582
In this case the samaritan was evil.

>>5723582
>while we're sitting here with bottles filled with water because we hiked to the stream at the end of the road like everyone else.
>like everybody else
lmao you nerds are really delusional
yup the entire world dropped having a functional life to learn moonrunes so they can play porn anime games, the "beggars EOPs" are the minority
its really not surprising how delusional you idiots are to actually believe in this tbqh

>>5723607

And that's the crux of the issue. Your mistaken beliefe you can't simply learn Japanese bit by bit while working or something. You just need to will to persevere.

>>5723607
Sadly he is right and you are all the impotent fan generation. All you can do is consume the easy to access pirated products. You can't make anything yourself. You sit in the world that your ancestors made, and enjoy the things your elders created, but can't make shit for yourself, can't even learn a language to enjoy your piracy to the fullest.

>>5723625
He's challenged by capitalization and punctuation.

>>5723625
>Sadly he is right
You're not. It's one (commendable) thing to put the effort into learning a new language to enjoy your hobby, its another completely different and autistic to be actively against translations being made. So what if EOPs are not "having the optimal experience"? How does that affect you particularly when you can access your source material just fine? This is just some autistic gatekeeping about "REEEE baka gaijins dont deserve to play the same games as me unless they put the same effort as i did!!!" which is retarded as fuck. This is just games motherfucker go get a life.

>>5723630
You are dishonest to a fault.

Cause it's a matter of how bad the translation is. In the case of this Patreon dude, this translations are indefensible. And the mistakes he made clearly show he doesn't know even basic Japanese and isn't fit to translate.

Moreover, Dead of the Brain and Makyouden are both story-based games. The story is the point, and the Patreon dude instead provided a twisted rewrites far from the real thing. The appeal of playing translated PC98 is getting your hands on something you though you would never get. Except in this case it was one big lie.

And don't take out the "ignorance is bliss" excuse at me. I reject that.

>>5723650
>You are dishonest to a fault.
You're the only dishonest person here shifting the goalposts around this particular 'translator'. I'm talking about idiots like these:
>>5721079
>I have no interest in translating. I'm fundamentally opposed to translations.


And yes, ignorance is bliss if your options are "play a subpar translation" or "dont play at all". Without the shitty pokemon green translation i played back in the day perhaps i would never get interested in the series at all. I don't give a fuck if you "reject" or "allow" it.

Hypothetically, if someone didn't care about the writing/translation at all and only cared about the porn, would this game be worth playing for that hypothetical person?

>>5723676
I'd say look at the HCGs and play Gigantic Army, which is the same game gameplay-wise.

>>5723656
>And yes, ignorance is bliss if your options are "play a subpar translation" or "dont play at all".

"learn Japanese" is always there as a possibility.

>>5723630
Sounds like you never had to deal with shitty plebs spreading their worthless, ignorant opinions after consuming a translation/adaption.
Or when they can't stop crying how something needs to be translated for them.

>>5723479
>>5723628
just because people don't want to copy your exact writing style doesn't mean they don't know english...

>>5723656
Nigga this isn't a "subpar translation", it's an entirely new game this guy made.

Been 3 days and hes not made any replies on Patreon, you also know hes been in these thread and prob has made at least 1 of them since Dead of The Brain...

God damn it Patreanon, you were the fucking chosen one

>>5724387
>yfw he's the one defending the "translations" here

>>5724092
Oh no. So I'll never find out what the commander really said about the world treaty? This can't be. I'm literally shaking right now.

>>5724392
You probably won't even figure out he was a commander in the first place, let alone that the game involved a world treaty.

>>5723676
Well yuri is pretty rare overall so maybe.

>>5723363
I doubt you know ever known language. You are missing out on a lot of good literature.

>>5724867
This sounds like a riveting plot I definitely don't want to miss out on. This is valuable literature we're talking about.

>>5724942
Then play the games in Japanese and stop arguing about translations?

>>5724945
Yes, I will dedicate the next few years to learning the language. These aren't just shitty generic sci-fi stories written by Asian video game nerds. These are masterpieces I must experience with 100% accuracy.

>>5724961
You don't need to learn the language if you don't care what the text says.

>>5724925
What retro games are there that weren't mage in Japanese, English, French, German or Chinese?

>>5724961
>I will dedicate the next few years to learning the language
I love when EOPs think that learning a language is something that requires 90% of their fucking free time or something. I literally study for 30 minutes a day, dude. Technically you could count reading or watching shit as studying too, in which case I do a couple of hours, but I'd be reading and watching that kind of stuff even if I didn't know the language.

>>5725517
That’s pretty sad. When you’re 90 will you look back and be glad you spent that time so you were able to more accurately translate “Generic SciFi #457”?

>>5725523
I've been studying for like 3 years and I can already look back and see that the time investment pales in comparison to the returns. By the time I hit 90, the minute fraction of my life I spent learning a second language will be so miniscule I can barely recall it.

When you hit 90, are you still going to be begging for translations?

>>5721079
>I have no interest in translating. I'm fundamentally opposed to translations.
you colossal faggot

>>5700579
When will yall niggers post the porn scenes on pornhub or at least see them on other boards?

>>5725538
He's right, though. Translations only beget begging for translations. You don't learn anything, you don't improve as an individual, you are left utterly reliant on the goodwill of third parties to provide you with entertainment.

Translations have no reason to exist in this day and age. There is more than enough translated material around for you to make an informed decision about whether or not you want to learn the language. But instead you're camping out at the samples counter, because you don't want to buy food.

>>5725527
Are you begging for translations of so-so Chinese novels, because you don’t speak Chinese?

Is there a game you’ve been able to play due to your Japanese knowledge that’s untranslated and has incredible writing that I’m missing out on?

>>5725557
If I was interested in Chinese media, I'd learn Chinese. I'm not, so I don't.

As for "incredible writing", I don't think I've ever seen a game with that in any language. I've played lots of great JP only games, though. Honestly speaking, learning Japanese is worth it purely from a porn perspective. Everything else is just more icing on the cake.

>>5701024
No it's not.

>>5725262
wasn't there like some old russian ones

>>5726464
I think you can figure out all text in Tetris by learning Cyrillic and looking the words up in a dictionary.

If you're into HoMM3 or JA mods you might find Russian useful.

>>5726464
Only puzzle games.
