For those of you who use chd compression, you need to rebuild the iso after patching.
The patch outputs an iso not divisible by standard PS2 DVD 2048 sector size.

Patched/rebuilt and chd compressed iso. (zstd)

Just do "chdman extractdvd -i "(game).chd" -o "(game).iso" if you want to revert it back to iso.

Does the script in this patch use the script from other translations?

Did this translation use LLMs/Gen AI in any capacity?

 

[Verinco]

Did this translation use LLMs/Gen AI in any capacity?

Yes, the translation was done using an LLM Google's latest model because I don't have enough time right now. I double checked the output and manually corrected many lines, especially where I was limited by the Japanese byte restrictions.
Sprites where edited by me manually ( no AI was used )
I'm currently working on a tool for manual translation and correction. It's based on the tool I developed for my last translation project, Gantz.

If you don't have time to translate the game, then why would you bother

 

[Verinco]

If you don't have time to translate the game, then why would you bother

Because, I have time to play it.

Because, I have time to play it.

Do you have plan to fix some of the issue this patch have like all text not displayed on backlog or text not fitting the whole text boxes?

 

[Kakumei]

Because, I have time to play it.

Are you ever gonna make a patch for the original version? PS2 version cuts a lot of lines, scenes and images, not just the sex scenes... I can provide the original version if you'd like.

Yes, and I would provide the tools with a GUI editor for anyone who wants to translate it manually. My idea was just to make it work for personal use, but I understand that people expect quality.

I'm currently investigating how the Windows version works. I think it's going to be easier. I just bought the official game.

YES!!! Thank you!!

Is there a possibility at some point for it to work on original hardware too? I let the game run for 10 minutes and it still stayed at a black screen.

 

[CG4R12I4N]

Thanks for the translation, but
>a VN drawn by Poyoyon♥Rock/Watanabe Akio
>pick the All-Ages PS2 ver instead of the Ero PC
feels kinda disappointing nonetheless

Did you try the patched one I linked above ?
I rebuilt it because the patch creates an iso not divisible by standard DVD 2048 sector size.

They said they're looking into making a patch for the PC version

 

[altaihero]

I tried to go through it, but I never used scripts before to convert it. It uses setup exe and python which I am not too familiar with. Sorry, I am not computer savvy. I even tried the patched v3 rom too and it still did not work.

 

[cocik26761]

No, worries.
Here's the rebuilt game in iso format.

Update:
It is now possible to create human translations with an gui tool. It also patches sprites and produces builds that are ready to run on emulators and original hardware.
