tl project Saimin Yuugi translation project (New attempt started mid-december 2022 with new team)

[Akun]

Can anyone give me a tutorial on what to do to translate it. It's pretty new to me and I really don't know what to do?

[HypnoConductor]

Fair point @WJHB. Thread can be used for general updates but for sake of communication, Here's a discord for the project. I'll add some channels in a bit but at least we can talk in real time in here.

Finished the first Rui sex scene (06rui_010.s, 06rui_020.s, and 06rui_030.s since last update). Good progress.

[WJHB]

New update, I Hate Transcribing Sex Noises Edition.

06rui_040.s done and pushed.

[UnderArchivist]

I didn't have as much time as I thought I would. Did look at the Rui stuff before the latest update, but it all seemed mostly good. Probably best to wait until the whole thing is done for a serious round of QA. Might take a look at Keika though if @WaifusAndSyrup is okay with it. I'd also do manual line ends.

New chapter done (aside from the Kusamakura line) and pushed. Opposite day edition.

New chapter done, bit of a shorter one this time. Sisyphus edition.

Next one is a doozy because that's the mind break scene, so it'll probably be a bit longer.

Thank you for all the work you're doing on this. Whenever you get the chance, request a merge and ill publish a patch file

[WJHB]

Done with the mind break scene and made a merge request. @HypnoConductor

I have to say Urakawa is doing some CRAZY mental acrobatics to assert that he never forced himself on Rui, but whatever.

There isn't that much left of the route after this scene but I expect one of the next H scenes to require a lot of creativity, so it could take a while.

This is not a good look, just tried to redownload and every service under the sun throws a fit. This was not the case a couple months ago.

[WJHB]

Yeah, I don't know what to do about that. I've whitelisted arc_conv.exe on my machine, but if you aren't comfortable doing that I can release a prebuilt patch. I haven't changed anything other than the script files, so I assume the change is due to an antivirus update rather than a change on my end. I had to re-whitelist arc_conv.exe again too which probably supports that.

These files that are being detected are false positives and are safe. They're needed to convert the files into the pack file

[chocolate27735]

Alright I managed to find the old arc_conv.exe which I already used and it's the exact same file so it has to be a change in detection indeed.

Running it in a sandbox and doing some basic diagnostics shows no indication of if doing anything sus either, so I'll trust you when you say it's a false positive.

Just be aware that in the current state Windows Security will block the source code from being downloaded unless Real-Time Security is turned off.

Thanks for the quick responses.

Forgot a part

[WJHB]

Finished 080.s. This one has some wordplay that I have no idea how to localize because Yanagi presumably has hypnotized Rui to perceive everything he says about literature as a dirty joke. I ended up just giving up and pretty much directly translating the Japanese puns. I do wish I could've found English variations because it'd be a lot more fun, but I'm not quite creative enough for that. The end is in sight for my first pass of Rui route. Enjoy.

[WJHB]

And now I'm done with 090.s, marking the end of my first pass of Rui's true route. While I have done some editing myself, I think it could use another look, and if anyone knows enough Japanese to work on TLC I'd appreciate it. Either way, I'll revisit it after I get through the other untranslated sections.

The party ending of Rui's route will remain untranslated until I get through the other heroines and begin work on the party route. I'm looking at doing Maiya's route next, since Keika's seems more difficult with all the slang. Hopefully by the time I tackle it I'll be more familiar with that stuff.

Rui's route was about 100 hours of work in my spare time over the past 6 months. I think I can maintain the same pace going forward, though if my workload increases I might shorten the amount of time I spend on it per day to avoid burnout.

I'll make a pull request and release a patch soon. Hope all of you enjoy it

I've uploaded a patch file with the current progress of the patch. Has the last two merge requests from @WaifusAndSyrup and @WJHB so Keika should be mostly translated and everything up to WJHB's last merge are ready to be played. Thanks for the work on this guys!

Let me know if there are any issues with this patch file. If there are, I can see to fixing it.

i put it inside gamedata folder but it seems the keika route still in japanese
ps
after trying rui route it seems it doesnt get updated also. im not sure if it's due to the the data6 pack side or my side
final edit:
ok it works it just i need to change the file name to anything other than data6 because it will replace the data6 from the game (i personally changed it to data10)

addition

[jengkel]

How do I know if I should name it data6 or data10

[WJHB]

Name it any number above 6, doesn't matter which.

[infernoblood]

just make sure it will not overwrite any other file and should be fine

 

[WJHB]

02mai_060.s finished and pushed. That took so long.

It's a lot longer than the other files so it's entirely possible I missed something. Feedback appreciated as always.

[jengkel]

How do I download that 02mai_060 file and where should I place it on my game folder

[WJHB]

New update, weretiger edition. 02mai_070.s translated, edited and pushed. I pulled the 山月記 lines from Paul McCarthy's official English translation.

@jengkelYou can download and build the patch here: https://gitgud.io/WJHB/saimin-yuugi-translation/-/tree/maiya?ref_type=heads. 060 (and now 070) are included in the repository. I explained how to use arc_conv to build a dataX.pack (make X some number greater than 7) earlier in this thread.

Thank you for your hard work ! I've been waiting for a translation of this game for ages, I even tried to learn japanese but those kanji are evil.
