Almost all recent anime series get fansubbed by several different teams. It also happens frequently for manga scanlations, especially if they're popular.

And someday, it WILL happen for a VN, that's a certitude. It's not even a matter of time nor audience growth ; all it will take is a translator being douche enough to start it. And then, showers of blood and piss.

I would bet on moogy if he weren't so lazy, but IMHO the most likely to do it are Gipface's crew or Insemination. But hey, Aroduc or some random, unknown translator are not out of the picture at all.

It really depends. I think the hobbiest translators (the ones who translate things because they like them) will transition to whatever interests them most, and some of them like VNs a lot. The e-peen TLs will go for whatever's in high demand, be it manga, LNs or VNs.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9800930
The only reason why LNs are getting translated so quickly and with such volume is due to the easy access of chink translation.

[Anonymous No.]

It is quite unlikely for fan translations of visual novels to compete with one another (with both translators willing to see it through to the end) as long as only a small fraction of visual novels are translated. It is possible some future Key/Type Moon title happens to grab two competitive teams, but it's unlikely to ever become common as long as there are many choices of titles to translate.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9800929

Indeed. How long is the average VN 'line' anyway? I know it varies pretty wildly, from each utterance being a separate line to one line being however much can fit in a single dialogue box, but do we have any statistics on it?

[Anonymous No.]

Have you actually looked at any of these LN translations, though? They appear to be 95% borderline illegible machine-translated gibberish.

Reading VNs is a good way to learn and expand your vocabulary, but you need to get a base before you attempt that. Try to grind out the first 400-500 most common kanji and learn a couple vocabulary that uses each kanji you learn. THEN you can start reading VNs with the help of a dictionary. If you try to go into a VN with no knowledge of kanji whatsoever you'll pretty much just be banging your head against a wall.

It more like if they haven't bothered to take the jlpt how serious are they in Japanese. And also if you we're a level 5 jlpt you would not be able to translate vn's. so it kind would e a measure of how good you could translate.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9801953

I haven't seen any of their work on the game, but from what I understand there are two translators. One is a non-native English speaker and I don't know what their Japanese level is and the other is claiming JLPT N3 level. Take that as you will.

[Anonymous No.]

The only reason to even take jlpt is if you're searching for a job in japan or for a job involving the language, I don't see how this has anything to do with "seriousness".
Don't forget this shit also costs money as well as more money, time and effort to get to the testing place, just for some piece of paper you're not going to use.
Also, a multiple choice kanji test is barely going to prove how good you're at translating eroge

There are two translators, one of whom is Finnish. She has a site up with the translated text she did up until about Noize's first appearance; she stopped posting updates after that because the group doing the patch recruited her.
Her fluency is decent, but not very experienced-sounding. (i.e. Aoba saying he thinks the name of the store where he works is "bimyou" was translated as the literal "delicate" rather than the implied meaning of "weird").

The other one IDK. It's not the same translator as Togainu, though.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9802600

I think I read some of the Finnish TL's stuff, she seems to have a decent handle on grammar but gets thrown off by non-dictionary uses of words very easily (I remember seeing her completely misinterpret Aoba's insinuations about giving the caller in the first scene a "special service" if he placed an order).

If the other TL is on a comparable level or higher, as long as they have a sensible editor it'll probably be serviceable. I feel like most of these errors are obvious enough on the English side (at least in that there's something clearly off about the phrasing) that a decent editor should be able to pick up on them.

Yes, we are based on providing services and support. One of the ideas we had would allow one-click patch creation and download, but it hasn't been worked on partly because the translators mostly only need assistance at the beginning and end of the project, and spend most of the time working. You do not need to worry about the text insertion and other technical aspects, leave that all to us so you can focus on translating.

I know you're a troll, but just for the less technically proficient people here:
1) A program does not 'compile' at an end user's system. It just runs.
2) A program saving data will correctly save data regardless of the specs of the system (the only exception being the device the data is being saved to, usually the HDD) or its stability. The only impact stability has is that data can be corrupted if the system crashes or turns off while saving.
3) Programs compile perfectly fine even on the slowest and most unstable of systems, it can just be very slow and the resulting program data can be corrupted by above power-off during save issue or a defective HDD (both could also happen on a high-end PC).

You're forgetting about Java, ECMAScript, Python, PHP etc but otherwise you're mostly correct.

There are some times where strange errors can happen due to hardware failure though, I have a working motherboard whose SATA controller randomly flips bits once every hour and I've experienced faulty RAM fucking up the execution state of programs randomly.

I doubt Aroduc has such problems though.

How the hell? Most BIOSes auto-shutdown at bootup if there are RAM errors.

>You're forgetting about Java, ECMAScript, Python, PHP etc but otherwise you're mostly correct.
I took those into account; those languages are all interpreted, not compiled at runtime. Java is always anal so you won't notice the difference as a programmer, but I know that at least in PHP and Python you can have as many syntax errors as you want and it'll just keep interpreting until it hits one (whereas in a compiled language it would just refuse to compile and not execute a single line). Python apparently even lets you catch syntax errors, which I really should mess around with sometime since it sounds hilarious.

Each statement is interpreted separately by the 'virtual machine' (Java/Python/PHP, the program) in the same way ASM instructions are interpreted in order by the operating system. Compiling is when you directly convert the interpretable lines to ASM or similar.

I know this is a troll but what kind of computer cant run a japanese VN? I was under the assumption that my image editor used more resources than half of these 800x600 VN's. I'm also not really sure how a VN would lag since it loops a mp3 and updates the image and text.

If that were true, there would be no need for programs like memtest86+.

RAM enumeration during boot only checks the presence of the banks, not each and every cell. Memtest is what can help one determine for sure if the memory subsystem is faulty.

>I know that at least in PHP and Python you can have as many syntax errors as you want and it'll just keep interpreting until it hits one

Look up pypy and hiphop-PHP. In any case, modern JITs can compile to machine code and still stop execution on error. It's a bit complicated to describe here but basically the scripts are broken down into many segments of assembly that the JIT glues together, keeping track of global variables, scope and whatnot. It's not like you load handlebar.js into Spidermonkey, it spits out machine code and then does nothing else...

VNs have become much more PC-intensive the past couple years. For example, try Rewrite and just watch how much the intro lags older systems. It didn't even run right on my previous system (dual core 2.8 ghz, 4 GB RAM, fitting NVIDIA graphics card, not sure which one it was).

Of course, all of these newfangled special effects are so simple they could also run on a single-core 1GHZ...but as CPU power/RAM/graphics cards improve, programmers get lazier and lazier (and VN programmers are terrible in general), resulting in very inefficient stuff.

You also have to keep in mind the 'west' is a hell of a lot bigger than Japan, so naturally there will be a far larger pool of programmers. And PC gaming is pretty small in Japan compared to here.

>I think that's 3-4 times in the past two days a concerned anon has asked about my Rewrite progress. It's probably my fault for not tweeting at all about the fact that spending an entire summer in Britain and all the travel that entailed left me somewhat drained to say the least. Not to say I'm in agony or anything, but I was definitely lacking the enthusiasm that I normally have for translation, which is what made such ludicrous speeds possible. Of course, for that exact same reason, I was also in no mood to tweet about anything. Well done me. Anyway I'm mostly settled into my new apartment and classes have started up so I'm trying to get back into the habit of translating again. In fact, today I did at least 500 lines (probably more) of a common route segment unique to Shizuru. So there's nothing to worry about.

Day 1282
The Ixrec is starting to experience life outside of translation. The knowledge of 'fun' has severely impacted his ability to translate, and the possibility of escalation is worrying. We must undertake action soon, or Project Translator will all be for naught. Although it is an extreme measure, we must consider using the brainwashing agent to remove these dangerous memories; at this point, there is little choice in the matter.

Didn't rapidshare change their free download speed cap to 20kb/s? I'm pretty sure everybody dropped it like a rock when they pulled that.

So will the Duel Saviour patch work without the two voice files? Because my college Internet has a bandwidth cap and those two voice files are pretty big.

It's pretty good. Not as good as some of the other games Aroduc has translated, but worth playing anyway.

The only game he has released I liked better was kamidori.

[Vicious !!kGW3mvg3DSW No.]

Kamidori has been pissing me off. So much time could have been saved with a simple auto save feature. I blame eushully of course.

It has an auto save feature. every time you go to the world map.

Guys, is there a workaround with this?
The aspect ratio and shitty resolution is killing me.
I really dont want to change it to 16bits just to play it, kind of troublesome man. Is there any sandbox software to run DS inside it?

any news on translation status on narcissu 3?

Not relevant to the gaming portion when stuff can go wrong and you have to restart the level.

Then save yourself. Don't expect a game to save every swap in every character turn,it would be too easy.

They're secret because people are getting sick of being bombarded by the whining of autistic children who demand instant gratification and have no manners, barriers, or anything to do with their time than harangue and criticize the people who DO THIS FOR FUN AND FOR FREE.

>I have to say I like the dark tone that is being set here. Yuuhi’s “heroic charge” and the fact that he thought he could win against a Musha, a being of immense power, just had me shaking me head in disapproval. It might excite fans of shounen heroism, and personally, I was reminded of Fate/Stay Night and its terribly idealistic main character, Emiya Shirou, who, despite being a high school student, somehow ends up defeating one of the most powerful beings in the franchise. It’s utter nonsense. Needless to say, Full Metal Daemon Muramasa’s big “fuck you” to the entire “Emiya Shirou” mentality had me fist pumping like crazy. Because the world is a dark place and heroes have no place in it.

So basically this is anti MLA and F/Sn? Sounds good to me

Well holy shit.

BOOM out of nowhere, partial patch for Amaranto: ghostyuri.com/2012/09/test-version-for-amaranto/

Quoth Kamyu:
> Contains Shizuku’s and Azoth’s routes, and graphics edited by me (it should look better once the people who actually know how to edit finish editing).

Almost a year to the day after the release of the demo.
Shit, this makes me happy; I'd thought the project was dead.
