Hello to you, Support-kun. it's my turn to start a thread now.
>>4208890
I have Sylvie so many head pats that I think I gave her a fetish.
>>4208892
would explain alot lol
>>4208901
This is the 3rd thread I'm lurking in a row.
So here is the classic.
>>4208902
Well, me too.
>>4208882
I LIKE the taste of Orange Juice after using toothpaste.
we really need a good paste for new threads
>>4208909
You are a madman
>>4208902
i forgot how many ive been in... im still wondering where OG patch-kun is
twas a pretty cool dude
>>4208913
It is something that usually slowly gathers during threads For now we have proper links, proper text will just come by in some moment
>>4208925
well as long as it has REAL info this time around, it would be welcome
>>4208927
It will be okey, Support-kun, don't worry.
>>4208929
but "Publication Type: pirates" tho
i mean the closest thing Sylvie has to being a pirate is...
>>4208946
QT3.14!!
Off topic, but on the subject of VN's...
I haven't been very interested in VN's, not even ones for series I enjoy (ex.Toradora), and this is the only VN I've played. I think what turns me off to them is the game side of it; I'm there for the story but having multiple routes (and endings), having to play through multiple times to unlock the best ending and how much work you have to put in for some of them kills my interest.
That said, would you still suggest Katawa Shoujo or another good VN for someone of my ilk?
I'm also not sure KS would be worth the struggle, from what little I know Hanako's route sounds the best but if it ends right as they get together I'm not sure the little payout will justify the effort and suspense that went into the buildup.
Would somethi
>>4208960
Well a bunch of vns don't really have a "best ending" unless you happen to think one is better than the other. Especially true with vns that are just about picking a girl.
Oh say give katawa shoujo a try. I really enjoyed it and I made sure to get all the endings.
Hey there, new to this board, my bad.
So, I downloaded the game (
http://sukebei.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=1933794)
and a v0.9 dialogue patch (http://www.ulmf.org/bbs/showthread.php?p=766190#post766190)
I switched out the scenario files and the dialogue is all english, but the UI is still japanese. Could anyone help walk me through this?
I was also told you gentlemen might have a prepatched DL?
>>4208971
I was referring to VN's where you have to play a girl's normal ending to unlock a good ending, and then play with that to get the "TRUE" good ending.
I'm the type that would just pick 1 (best) girl and probably never play the other routes though. Hence why I'm referring to myself as cancer
>>4208975
So you're into VNs with girl picking or any good novel without rerunning would go?
For girl picking Katawa is good, because you can do all you want with girl you want during the first run.
For just good novel try Saya no Uta for example
>>4208987
If he's a noob with VN's, i don't think he'd like sad/distubing shit. But if he is looking for that kinda shit, I'd add Yume Miru Kusuri – A Drug That Makes You Dream.
>>4208975
i suggested it before in the previous thread but grisaia no kajitsu is one i really enjoyed... there arent alot of decisions... the first few dont matter, then all the rest are pretty much "do you want to go on X route"... and whatever one you chose has 1 choice near the end to determine the ending so its pretty simple, no forced unlockable choices
>>4208995
I was just reading up on that one. It looks pretty decent so I'm going to give it a try. Also yuuji is wrong about maids.
>>4208995
Btw I think about running it, as soon as I complete G-string you or someone other suggested me, Support-kun
>>4209000
its super worth it... plus u get some cool extras with it (like system voice clips and sound effects from the characters u can use)
ive got JB yelling "FIYAH IN THE HOLE!" whenever i empty my recycle bin and it kills me every time!
>>4209004
well grisaia is pretty actiony but if u dont take the "bad" end they all have pretty satisfying conclusions
>>4209007
On the subject of Grisaia, have you seen the anime(s)? Because that thing with the hand at the very end still cracks me up.
>>4209004
Then here's some I can think off the top of my head
40 Days & 40 Nights Of Rain https://vndb.org/v39
Ballad Of An Evening Butterfly https://vndb.org/v91
ANY of the infinity series
https://vndb.org/v248
https://vndb.org/v17
https://vndb.org/v13
The 1st two Muv Luv games (can't speak about the others on account I haven't played them)
https://vndb.org/v93
https://vndb.org/v92
Aaaaaaand that's all I can think of for the moment.
>>4209004
AND CROSS+CHANNEL!!! HOW THE HELL DID I FORGET ABOUT CROSS+CHANNEL?!!!
https://vndb.org/v66
>>4208893
How do you get her to lick your fingers?
>>4208946
sides have left orbit
>>4208960

G senjou no mau is all about the story.
The endings happen in sequence so you reload only one or 2 choices each time and you dont have to skip through the whole story each time if you simply save.
>KS
fuck that man, play rin's route if your openminded and like to be kicked in the balls repeatedly (emotionally speaking)
Play Hanako's route because she looks like Sylvie
Then play emi's route for the healing
Play lily if you're a normie
disregard deaf slut and drill tits
>>4209048
Is there an option that appears after "caress face"? or do I do something else.
>>4209044
Deaf slut/Drill tits is so boring. Unfortunately it's been the first route I went, because I wanted to bang drill tits. Turns out you can do that, but it's so disappointing (because [spoiler]she is lesbian and into the deaf slut and thus not really into it[/spoiler] that it was not worth reading into it).
Then I decided to take Emi's route. I am not even at the first date and started running training (not overweight, but my stamina is really low, and I always wanted to be able to run long distances - and this was a fine incentive).
Just to showcase how bad the deaf slut path is.
>>4209053
in the 1.30 ver yes. Need high trust tho
>>4209062
i liked most of the characters in KS.. personally Hanako is my favorite since i rather like the more introverted characters.
but overall Emi is probably the best fit for protag-kun... shes genuinely good for his health and they have good chemistry.
also that pirate joke Emi makes is amazing! XD
P.S....Lemons
>>4209071
>>4209071
"Good girl"? She was overly competitive, everything she touched turned into a fight, and she wanted to win.
>She does not love chess, she just likes playing it.
Suck my dick, mute bitch. Playing with others is not about winning or losing, it's about spending time with others. And that comes from the biggest autist in this thread here.
>>4209075
That's what I thought as well. Emi is a much better fit, not just for him, but generally. I dunno about the other girls, but she first tells the protagonist that she likes him - I like girls who take action.
>>4209071
i liked Shizune but ill admit i wasnt a huge fan of the pushy over-competitiveness that she brought.. i cant say no to glasses tho
also her dads a prick
>>4209044
So basically Emi route is best?
>>4209079
Another man enlightened by glasses I see
>>4209084
Yes. It isn't available right in case you're wondering
>>4209085
Basically, yes
I was attached to rin though, because I played her first, unfortunately the protag is a fucking knob gobblin the whole route
>>4209088
I'm at intimacy 1084 and lust 245 do I need to do all the memories or something?
>>4209090
lust needs to be at like 400 or something I think
Go to the forest and farm pink flowers, then brew pink flower, large amount, tea for a +35 to lust
>>4209093
Gotcha, thanks
>>4209096
or be lazy like me and just edit yourself a bunch of flowers/potions/lust points etc.
>>4209085
Personally I thought Hanako a best, but closely followed by both Lilly and Shizune. Emi a slut, but an alright slut, and Rin belongs in a bin.
To be fair, Rin loses points with me anyway because she uses her feet for everything, and I find feet to be absolutely disgusting no matter what. But I played her route and tried to ignore that, everything about her story is shit, including Hisao while on that path. I think she's got the worst personality, you'll either love her or hate her.
>>4209101
Everyone's got their own opinion.
IMO I liked how Emi pushed Hisao to overcome his OWN challenges.
Instead of, in every other route, worrying about someone else's problems so much he forgets his own.
Emi was the all around healthy choice.
Psychologically and spiritually.
Also how can you argue with lemons?
She's chill as fuck
>>4209098
Any other special hard to get shit? Like something in town or while working?
>>4208907
This panel always cracks me up
>>4209112
Might be able to edit costumes early or something I guess
Other than that, theres not that much in the game yet really.
>>4209114
Makes me wish she was part yandere
>>4209117
Would she cut off your hand to give herself head pats?
>>4209111
true that, i usually see VNs in 2 ways 1. seeing myself as the protagonist and deciding my favorite on my own tastes and 2. seeing the protagonist as their own character (when they aren't 100% blank slates of course) and thinking of the best character for them.
gives alil extra replay value for me at least
Hanako made by Ray, AKA Sylvies game dev
woooooo!
>>4209121
That feel when your wifu is ed gien
>>4209114
make em into a story!
>>4209085
Yes. Hanako is a physically unfit man's Emi substitute.
>>4209101
I like Hanako a lot, but I didn't much care for the way her route was written.
I hate to say it, but I almost think the Act 1 demo is an overall better experience than the full game.
>>4209126
I can read kinshi and nade nade, what does the last one say?
>>4209129
ban lifted
>>4209111
Yep, the lemons and the healthy part was why I said "Emi a slut, but an alright slut." She's really not bad, she's just not my top pick. All girls but Rin are good.
My main issue with KS is pretty much all of the routes but Lilly's had no real mention of Hisao's heart issue. With Lilly he has like three or four pretty bad scares so it feels more justified for him to be in that school. With all the other routes it's more or less an afterthought with maybe a nod or two at it later, which made Hisao seem healthier than he was.
>>4209130
>ban lifted
That is fucking adorable.
What does your doctor look like?
>>4209138
>Your humors are out of balance
>We need to exchange body fluids
>>4209133
near the end of Hanako's it does show a bit that Hisao is starting to actually have trouble living normally, but after that city scene it goes back to the usual
>on another note has anyone using my 1.30 patch tried changing their name to "Hisao" since KS was a pretty popular topic on these threads i added it ;P
>>4209145
I died, though I admit I looked in the file to see what names would give a result once I couldn't think of any more.
>>4209147
did u like "Missingno" if u looked u can see originally i had it close the game after... then i felt alil bad for those who may not have saved, ha
>>4209150
Yes, the fake error message was a nice touch.
>>4209150
game wont crash if your using Sylvie red version
>>4209154
NOOOOOO!!!
i've only got blue!!
my level 100 Sylviechu is gone!
>>4209152
heheh it was originally made in 1.16 for a friend of mine who didnt know about the custom names, so when he put his name in it, it called him out on looking at loli stuff...and scared the crap out of him with the error (that version looked alot more believable than the cheesy one here)
Anyone else notice that when you're getting down and dirty with Sylvie if you continue to only use your fingers it will still give you generic sex descriptions.
ie: "The sound of your hips smacking together," and other lines talking about your semen.
I'm I to believe that the doctor is humping Sylvie's side while he fingerbangs her?
Finally finished my code injection script, but the inject points are still hardcoded.
Guess I'll only post it in a few days.
I'm going to test it with the santa outfit now.
>>4209188
I'd rather put my money on Ray being a lazyass. Considering what we already have found in the game, it seems like coding is REALLY not his forte.
>>4209194
If it was, we'd get tons more updates.
Think about that.
>>4209194
Oh, I see. Kinda disappointing, but it makes sense.
>>4209195
Nah, I wouldn't go THAT far. Design stuff takes its time, and that stuff finds its way into the game all right. Although the game script REALLY could do with an update. Or a new scripting language. Or at least SOME features, like having functions. And constants.
It kinda makes me wonder why Ray decided to use this engine. I can have the same with the irrlicht engine with which I am experimenting recently. The programs are still really small (250 KB for example), instead of this bulk that Ray has in his game (50 MB!).
>>4209200
But you can use javascript on it, to an extent.
And you do have functions, they're called macros but ray doesn't use them much.
>>4209204
And? Javascript or C++, that does not matter. In the end the framework matters. And when we can have the same or even more functionality without the crap which us holding us back ...
And I mean real functions. With return values and parameters. Are they supported by the engine as well?
>>4209210
Yes, macros support parameters, not sure about the returns though.
The fuck am I supposed to do with all these blue flowers?
>>4209212
Curse their existence.
Does anyone know the specific requirements for unlocking the santa suit, or do you have to do something to one of the game files. I have 1400 intimacy, 826 lust, and have bought every other outfit/accessory color available.
>>4209213
It's not in the game.
I'm trying to add it to the latest version in a non intrusive way though.
>>4209214
Alrighty. Well then I guess Ive done everything. Kinda depressing.
>defining Array.insert in javascript breaks the game
Well then, I guess there's no hope for this engine.
I'm gonna post it tomorrow, since half of it doesn't even work.
Just need to mess with a few offsets now.
i'm assuming this has been found by /vg/'s katawa shoujo thread posters?
those faggots must be going nuts over this.
>>4209223
Told you, this engine is garbage. Sigh ... Ray could do with a tech guy. but from what I've heard he's hardcore xenophobic. And Asians cannot program unless they work for a really big companies ... so this came is technically doomed.
>>4209238
And I cannot write for shit ...
How the hell do you unlock the outdoor scenes and the first scene on the second page?
>>4208921
I'm still here, still lurking, still working.
>>4208887
Why does this link to an incomplete translation?
>>4209247
Outdoor scenes are when she's wearing the frilly dress and you go into the forest. You will randomly run into a situation where she asks to rest. If you accept, you'll run into a situation where you have the option to kiss her.
First scene on the second page is if you leave the house alone. You come back and find her...busy. Second scene is if she's at 400 or more lust and you go to have sex. It'll show up as a third option right at the start, under 'oral'.
>>4209249
Because while v1.16 is completely translated, the current versions--1.22 and 1.30b3--are not. The current 1.22/1.30b patch uses the old 1.16 translation and thus is missing a bunch of stuff.
so how do i get the neko ver.?
>>4209251
Cheers
I just arrived in h and saw this thread. I'm glad that I did. So many headpats, so little time.
>>4209280
welcome anon!
there can never be too many headpats.
>>4209251
To Bed
Receive Oral
[spoiler] Release the Old God Ebrietas onto the Mortal Plane [/spoiler]
can i get the game for free or ...
>>4209297
read thread, there is a mega link
Oh shit what do I do?
>>4209308
Shit what are you doing son? Attack her. (It starts the scene.)
>>4209308
Attack her => have sex before breakfast (she's going to like it, no worries).
Greet her => nothing happens.
>>4209309
In literally any other hentai games I'd fuck her while milking her tits into my coffee, but not this one.
>>4209311
Because you care about her, or because she has no tits to begin with?
>inb4 both
I've been going out alone for days now but I still haven't gotten the masturbation scene. Is it in the latest version? It was already unlocked in the gallery, so does that mean it won't happen again?
>>4209336
Ah, yes. It only happens once, and after that you only have the version where you tell her to do it before sex.
>>4209308
Rule of thumb: always do the top option.
>>4209078
>>4209079
>Shizune
So...looks like I'm Shizune only fan here.
Fine then! I just take best girl away with me and no one would be complaining about this.
As for others, you can share your waifus between youselves whatever you like, lol
But seriously, comrades...I just went to sleep for six hours and although this thread is about Sylvie, it turned to KS thread. This is...dangerous.
>>4209358
To be fair, there isn't much to discuss about Sylvie/the game other than the occasional new thing.
>>4209360
Yes, sadly, I got a point
I seem to get a bug everytime I open the closet in the 1.30 ver. An alert pops up and Sylvie´s face loads next to her body, which is left expressionless. How do I fix it?
/h/ = headpats
>>4209398
I love you
>>4209358
Nah, I like Shizune too. She's a bit abrasive to start out, but she actually goes through character development, which is something I appreciate. It also helps that her H scene is really hot.
>>4209392
What's the alert say?
>>4209402
You are my comrade, then.
Glad to see you here.
hey guys, i downloaded headpat.rar from the other thread and i'm unable to open the .app file to play the game on mac
>>4209283
glad someone else uses that gif
All these KS Spoilers, and thought I was going to be able to browse these head pat threads stess free.
>>4209238
>but from what I've heard he's hardcore xenophobic.
That's a real shame to hear. Where does that information come from?
>>4209499
I don't know where the xenophobic stuff comes from, he lives in Oregon.
>>4209503
oh fuck
where specifically?
>>4209150
Oh man, that was super neat. Also worth it just to see Sylvie say this.
>>4209503
He posted some stuff on Twitter about how westerners only pirate the game or something like that. I'll try to dig up the post, it's around a month old though so there's a lot of stuff to sort though.
>>4209535
Found it, hope the link works
https://twitter.com/Ray_Kbys/status/692753166450839552
>>4209540
>https://twitter.com/Ray_Kbys/status/692753166450839552
>lives in Oregon
>dat broken English
I live in a non-english-speaking country in Europe and I write and speak better English than he does.
>So, really sorry for my fans who paid for the game, but I can’t trust most of non Japanese players because of the reason that I said.
Oooookay .... what he basically says is:
>Group A and group B do the same thing, but I like group A more, so group B is evil. Look at me how I stick my head up my butt, turning myself into a total asshat.
>>4209540
>https://twitter.com/Ray_Kbys/status/692753166450839552
He will get over it. Pirates exist everywhere that includes non westerns and his own country. I'm afraid westerns are not going to even put a dent in his sales so it's really a moot point.
>>4209550
Another reason why westerns won't make much impact is because there is no official translation, Because he does not care - at all.
And then he complains about them pirating the game - as if he's expecting them to learn moon. Oh, these Japaneses sometimes are REALLY funny.
>>4209540
>I found some magazines that is introducing my game.
>>4208893
what game is this
>>4209535
glad u liked it anon.. the 3am call i got from my friend for the original version made it super worth it too.
>>4209550
Again, he'd make more money if he endorsed the TL and put the game on Steam, which I'm sure we'd all support.
But if his xenophobia gets the better of him, that's his problem.
>>4209576
i really doubt steam would allow this game on there without some heavy cuts from its content
and its not like hes never had a TL done for one of his games... i mean
http://store.steampowered.com/app/353330/
>>4209578
Well, coding issues aside, I'm sure it'd be possible to put the game on Steam as just a headpat simulator. Lesser games have been put on Steam before.
Not that it'd stop certain groups from thinking the game endorses slavery or some shit. Then again, I'd enjoy seeing the fallout from that, but Ray might not.
So is there a reason why the lust score went down? After one sex scene I went from a 20 or something to an 11.
>>4209582
>When I first read what said on /hgg/, I remember being sorry for being one of the ~400 people who bought it from Eng DLSite. Goddamn what a faglord.
What happened?
>>4209593
Basically just what has been mentioned in this thread.
"People like my game! They're giving it free publicity!"
"I hate that! There isn't even an English translation, they're not paying me!"
"Oh, there's an English translation?! No wonder they're pirating it!"
Goddamn entitled little prick. Making half a million dollars isn't enough for you, huh? Are you really worried that the Western audience is pirating your best-seller game even if you've entirely ignored them?
Fuck him. Seriously.
Wow
I never heard anything about author before, so I thought he is just a good guy like us.
And now it came to light that he is racist fag plus all things written above. And he was the one who created Sylvie.
These two things just don't create a bond in my head. Just how it can be?
>>4209588
From my walkthrough-in-progress:
>Sylvie's lust decreases a bit with each passing day. If her lust is higher than 500, it decreases by 3 points. If it's higher than 100, it decreases by 2 points. Otherwise, it decreases by one point.
>>4209602
Quite simple: It's just a redeeming quality of him. And that quality makes it so that you heard of him in the first place.
What do you think how many ass-clowns out there have a redeeming quality that does NOT make them known to a larger audience, and thus you'll never get to know them? And still they have it.
I am a /g/-tard who likes to rant about instruction sets and compilers, but my redeeming quality is digging through Ray's "quality work" and finding neat stuff that you can do with the game.
>>4209604
Well, you got a point.
Still, it makes me sad.
I like the game but does it have an ending or is it a continuous cycle of sex and head pats?
>>4209628
Just a continuous cycle of sex and head pats.
I just saw on his twitter that he's animating some scenes, we are getting this on the next patch?
Also voice work when?
>>4209630
not that there is anything wrong with that!
>>4209631
hes done some good animations before so i cant wait for that!
also wasnt there a fanmade audio thing...
http://www.dlsite.com/ecchi-eng/work/=/product_id/RE170738.html found it!
>>4209631
He's messing around with the new After Effects, and while he likes some things about it he apparently lost realtime timeline interaction and thus while the overall experience was better, actually creating the animation was feeling around in the dark, essentially.
That being said, as to the post he just made, what he said is that in the next update he's going to include the GIF file of that scene animated as a bonus. Tyrano apparently doesn't handle animation loops gracefully so it's not actually being implemented ingame.
As to the translation/piracy discussion, I've weighed in on this before but I honestly couldn't care less. Am I disappointed, as someone who works on the unofficial translation, that he's decided to exclude those of us who purchased the game and are desperately trying to make it more accessible to the English-speaking community? Yes. Am I going to ad hominem him to death and say he's not entitled to his opinion? No.
I'm going to go head-pat Sylvie some more.
>>4209638
>>4209631
As to the voice work thing, he's aware of the fan creation and liked it, but I don't think there's anything there. I mean, none of us are the girl who voiced that (or the creator of the drama CD, if those are two different people) so we've no way of knowing if they've talked to one another, but I don't see it happening.
Would be pretty neat though.
>>4209646
>facts are ad-hominem
>calling him xenophobic is ad-hominem
>addressing real problems with the marketing of the game is ad-hominem
kek
>>4209596
He really made half a million off it?
>>4209602
I think we shouldn't be too hard on him. In fact, I don't think we have a right to criticize him at all.
I mean, it's not like he's stopping you from playing or translating his game or anything. He could be going after pirates with copyright claims and suing everyone, but I haven't heard anything about that.
He has his prejudices, just like every person who has been shaped by their upbringing and environment does, and he's making decisions based on his experiences, regardless of whether there's any truth behind them.
He has given us an enormous gift already, and he's letting us work with it according to our needs.
And think about it: it's partly because of the fact that he hasn't done anything for the English-speaking demographic that we have such an active community here. We're forced to take initiative, explore the code and in a sense become closer to the game, develop a better understanding of it.
I mean, I have 0 knowledge of the technical stuff myself, but I really enjoy watching the people here work on it so assiduously and introduce their own ideas into the code. It really fosters a spirit of collaborative creativity and cooperation and conducive to a tighter-knit community.
And of course, the existence of Sylvie herself is enough to for me to reject any complaints directed at this man.
>>4209646
I think I can say this for everyone here then; thanks for making a way for us to head pat Sylvie
Wait a sec, you guys never heard about this?
Some SFW Korean magazine published stuff about his game and some Korean guy on Twitter complained about showing such a game to the public. Ray was upset because he never approved of it, or was even notified by the author.
>>4209649
>calling him a faglord isn't ad hominem
>sure would be unfortunately to have a civil discussion
Okay, anon. Are you the German anon a few threads back who was trying to tell me that he (and all other JP devs) should only create games in English because it has more market penetration? Because I still disagree.
>>4209653
That's news to me
>>4209655
Yeah, it's what sparked this whole anti-foreign sentiment on his twitter. Some Korean dude attacking him in English over how irresponsible he was.
>>4209657
Fucking of course it had to be a Korean guy. Never did understand the whole Korean/Jap mutual hate thing.
>>4209651
>He really made half a million off it?
Yes. This was calculated around the time it got #1 spot on DLSite. DLSite and DMM cuts are public information, so you can easily just calculate it. I believe that's after tax, too.
I wouldn't wonder if he's past 600k now.
>>4209663
WHY?
Part 1:
>>4209654
Funny to see what got stuck in your perception filter. Unfortunately I had a hard disk failure and thus don't have an archive of the thread, which means I cannot quote directly from it. But my memory should suffice - and I definitely never ever said that they should ONLY create games in English. Never ever.
What I said was that they should offer ADDITIONAL English versions.
I don't know if I brought up this tidbit before - but there is a German game series, called "Gothic". First two titles were amazing. Of course, since the developers were German, the game came out in German as primary language. Later they released an English version - in my opinion, with inferior voice acting, but still - they made the game available for a much larger audience by ADDITIONALLY translating it into English. That was enough - now Americans can play it, or Spanish, or Italians ...
And guess what, the selling figures were high enough for them to develop a second title. And a third title (which sucked). And a fourth title ("Risen", which didn't suck so much). And a fifth and sixth one (which sucked again). They are still doing that for 15 years now. And they always release English versions as well.
They could have been entitled nazis and said "No, we are not going to release it for the non-german market", and might not have been that successful. They didn't, because they were smart. And from what I can see from Ray, he is not smart. At least he is not acting smart.
He rages about a Korean who writes an article about his game ... so what? Korea and Japan are separate countries.
He acknowledges that there are pirates on both sites, but he doesn't like the non-Japanese ones because - reasons.
He does not offer an English translation (based on the English that I have seen from him so far, thank fuck - although there is always the possibility of out-sourcing), and then complains about the community creating a translation and pirating it and generating publicity.
>>4209667
because it got deleted off /v/ and i needed to reup it somewhere to link to my friends [spoiler]on f-list[/spoiler].
>>4209669
Ah, good to see my anon detector is still working! Welcome back. I've had three hard drive failures since 2005, with increasing amounts of devastation as platter density increases. I feel your pain, I truly do. I wish I could find an efficient solution for redundancy with 14TB of storage. Perhaps that new 15TB SSD Samsung put out could assist.
Anyway, as to your actual point, we'll see. For now I'm just gonna keep trucking along on the unofficial stuff and let Ray be Ray. I've had decent commentary with him in Japanese while he's been streaming, so I just can't see him as a bad dude.
>>4209654
All in all, he does not act as if he was smart. I was not the anon who called him a faglord. But I called him an asshat. He acts stupid and then blames other people for his stupidity. Such a person is called "asshat".
To answer your question: Yes, I am that German guy. I am also the guy who is digging through Ray's script code. And the more I learn about him, the only "redeeming quality" I see in him is that he create a good story about a slave child. From a technical standpoint the game sucks cock, and the creator himself is unable to reflect upon his behavior.
If he does not give a shit about an English translation, fine. But then he shouldn't start complaining about people pirating it and creating their own translations. He had the chance, crap, he STILL has it. Not that it's necessary for the 1.16 version.
>>4209651
at least for the most part this community has been pretty awesome
so if anything ill just be a fan of Ray as an artist not the social/business side of things with him
Im helpless, i want someone like Sylvie in my life
>>4209676
Just why your Sylvie is saying something strange, Support-kun? She never did it im my game.
If i'm not mistaken,there should be a "work together" option right ?
>>4209682
its just part of one of the custom names anon
>>4209681
you're not alone anon im sure many of the ppl in these threads do
>>4209686
yus, at a certain love level it becomes an option wen u buy the nurse outfit
>>4209688
350+ lust is not enough ? damn
>>4209682
It's not that hard making her to say some nice things.
>>4209693
Heeeey! Don't do this to me!
Your OP
>>4209676
You should make a thing, where if you tell Sylvie to call you "OP", after you choose "to bed" she refuses to have sex with you and says "OP likes men, right? It seems I am not good enough".
>>4209696
its ok anon i'll always be your friend
>>4209698
that could be a fun thing to add... certain names that block you from scenes
>>4209700
... that just gave me an evil idea - if you tell Sylvie to call you "Bubba" or "Big Bubba", whenever you choose "To bed" the rape scene from the beginning triggers. Just without the dying of Sylvie after that.
>>4209661
It's because the Japanese invaded Korea back when they were on the rampage of war
>>4209701
doable but the scene itself wouldnt make too much sense if its not her first time tho
>>4209704
Yeah, and that's seventy years ago. Ask the French how they feel about Germany - most of them don't care. Ask the Belgians about Germany - they rather care about the conflict between French and Flemish speakers. Ask the Polish about Germany - they care more about the Russians nowadays.
It seems to me Asians cannot get over shit that's been done in the past.
>>4209706
You could edit the text so that it would make sense ... argh, damnation. It would be way easier if the engine wasn't that retarded, though.
>>4209707
Okay, fine. I lied. It's because of Juri Han.
help, what do i do, untranslated decision
>>4209711
1. Pat her head in a way that says "it's fine"
2. tell her she looked cute.
>>4209712
oh sorry,
>1. console her and tell her it's fine.
Mixed up the words, no patting.
>>4209707
I think it's because with Germany the population as a whole has denounced their wartime acts, while Japan still has a large contingent that goes "yeah all that raping and pillaging we did was awwwwriiighhht"
>>4209711
Daijōbuda to nadameru.
10 love (says its fine)
Kawaikatta to iu mitsu katsu.
10 lust (says she looked cute.. obvious with "kawaikatta"
>>4209707
The Polish had their country split up by the Russians in 19th century, and also they were Catholic which made Orthodox Russia their religious enemy. They hated Russia for much longer than they did anyone else.
I'd say time is a bigger factor than intensity for shaping inter-ethnic relationships
>>4209722
So, comrades, from KS we a history thread now
lol
>>4209721
+100 love from these threads!
>>4209724
apparently so, at least we are full of diversity.
>>4209724
Sylvie threading out the best
>>4209730
>>4209734
Oh yes guys, you're all so great.
>>4209730
Support-kun, I want to ask something.
I'm having my G-string run right now, still somewhere about first chapter. Is main hero a Maou? Not like he knows it, but like Pitt-Norton thing in Fight club? He just had this cafe conversation with longhaired girl and there was MISTERIOUS personality switch and something about his head dizzing.
Not that I'm asking for spoilers, just am I guessing correctly about him?
>>4209602
He wanted to include an evil path, raping Sylvie and all that. I think that goes pretty well with what kind of idiot/ass he is.
He just happens to be an asshole not entirely devoid of empathy, hence the scrapping of the evil route.
>>4209646
One can be fully entitled to an opinion, but that doesn't make one's opinion any less shit and everyone deserves to be shit upon for a shit opinion.
>>4209651
>In fact, I don't think we have a right to criticize him at all.
And that is bs, no matter who you are talking about, no matter the circumstances.
Everyone has the right to criticise everyone else at all times. (That is unless you live in North Korea or other such shitholes.)
>>4209744
i dunno, im actually not that far in g-string myself, the other anon is the one more familiar with it
sorry.
>>4209748
Well, okey, It will come up during the story anyway.
>>4209596
if there was an english one in the first place i would have bought it but since i need to wait for the translations i just decided to torrent it. but like >>4209651 said it probably did help the community become more active
>>4209747
If you've seen his earlier creations, you'll find that it's less him beind an ass that had him planning 'evil sensei' stuff and more that he's into guro stuff big-time. A large part of that, judging by a story he wrote about on Twitter a week or so ago, is that his artistic mentor was into similar stuff and introduced him to fetishes he never knew existed.
As for the opinion thing, eh. He's the creator, he holds the keys. What I say won't get him to change his mind about foreign interest. I'm just a guy who does stuff on the internet unofficially. I don't have a company that professionally promotes games from overseas to foreign markets, so I have no sway in his professional decisions. Nor does anyone else here, unless one of you actually does run such a company.
In which case, have -you- reached out yet?
>>4209681
The fantasy is nice, but you actually don't want that.
In reality it's not that easy to help someone with a severe trauma, and I am not even talking about "being kept as a slave in conditions barely allowing you to survive and daily torture leaving severe scarring is all you know" levels of trauma.
>>4209681
How do you get this? How do you get the succ of thumb?
Is there a guide that shows what unlocks at what level of affection? I've only got this one gamefaq's guide to go by an a short pastebin tutorial.
>>4209752
I didn't say being into that stuff makes him an ass, I just said where he wanted to go with this ties in with his personality better as a response to that guy seeing a discrepancy in him being an ass and creating a game like that/Sylvie.
Taking into account what he wanted to do with it kinda eliminates that discrepancy, at least for me.
What does any of that have to do with having the right to criticize him or his opinion being shit? It doesn't.
And no, I haven't and I won't either. Why would I?
>>4209758
>>4209681
>>4209753
>>4209753
that gave me an idea, Ray should make the wounds healable, the instructions should be in the book from fedoraguy, the scars and wounds should not dissapear by any means, but just make them... better, and of course, it would be super complicated and time consuming, but i dont like seeing anyone hurt
>>4209759
Luckily not with that level of trauma.
>>4209762
That'd be a sweet little option! But honestly her scars have grown on me. It shows that even with all the shit she went through, she was able to fine happiness in the end
>>4209765
FIND NOT FINE
Dammit
>>4209761
Alright, I had that coming, I'll concede.
>>4209764
But nevertheless?
>>4209764
share, please
>>4209771
Do you really want to get depressed anon? Not the anon your asking but still
>>4209774
im sure im not the only one that wants to know your story, past few months werent so kind on me either, not that it would hurt me or depress me, i just kinda gave up in humanity
>>4209765
as i said, not dissapear, just make them... not so bloody, poor little thing
I've been playing this game all weekend. When I finally see my girlfriend today I'm gonna pat her head so hard.
>>4208882
Poll time, /TFg/.
What do you think Sylvie's previous owner looked like and what would you do if you met them?
>>4209783
Probably a fat disgusting fuck. You know how this shit goes
>>4209783
Probably some well dressed, unassuming rich asshole. He's already dead though.
>>4209769
>>4209771
>>4209777
I'll make this short, since I didn't think it would even come to this and don't want to derail the thread:
Youngest sister has been in a car crash 4 years ago killing our mother, blinding and scarring her. Last thing she saw was our dead mother "staring at her" while slowly losing her eye-sight, trapped in that car. Firefighters had to cut her out of it.
I moved back home to help out and gave up on what I originally wanted to do in order to take care of her. That's basically it.
I could tell you a lot more, but I doubt you want me to go there.
>>4209788
Give your sister headpats from all of us here.
>>4209777
i wouldnt mind the option but personal ive grown so use to her scars that i just look past it and just see Sylvie, i would just leave it the way they are but of course that's just me.
>>4209788
How old is she?
How is she doing? What are the difficulties you face in dealing/communicating with her, if there are any?
>>4209794
i think the healing on that picture would not continue, and i think this healing would be spread somewhere between 100/150 days, with needing to collect some herbs each day to keep in stock while Sylvie would stay home

These answered all my questions, just thought I'd drop them in.
>>4209114
>tfw I still have the pictures posted on here when the game first came out
man, I haven't checked this game since the 2nd update
>>4209831
You should
>>4209837
>>4209821
completely agree with you. theres that one line she says that her scars are ugly and she will hide them if you dont like it. if i could i would tell her that i feel in love with her the way she is. if anything the scars is another thing that makes her really unique and without them she wouldnt stand out as much.
>>4209752
>He's the creator, he holds the keys.
Uhm, I kinda disagree. I have the knowledge of implementing TF from scratch, without all the technical issues that we are facing right now. Granted, we wouldn't be able to write in the scripting language anymore - but if I was to do it, of course I'd release the source code as well, and then we had way more possibilities.
>B-but copyright ...
I can distribute stuff over Tor all right. People would just need the assets from the original TF, which are available via Torrent already.
Why I don't do that? Frankly, because I don't give enough of a fuck.
If you don't think that's possible: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/
We could even have a native Linux port, just saying.
Yes, Ray would probably throw a tantrum. Could he do anything against it? Considering that even the NSA failed to break Tor, I'd say that he does not stand a chance.
>>4209868
>open-source 3d engine
oh shit, why haven't I heard of this
>>4209791
>>4209798
Thanks, I appreciate the thought.
>>4209808
Had her accident when she was still 11 years old, turned 16 not too long ago.
It's mixed. She has times when she is really down and has frequent nightmares, but in general she is quite happy and positive.
I wouldn't say there are really any major difficulties in dealing with her. We get along exceptionally well and are really close since her accident, because I am mainly taking care of her, initially to ease our father's worry and stress.
She still has some trouble in moving vehicles (got a lot better over the years though) and there are some real assholes out there, but otherwise it's fine by now. The really tough times were shortly after her accident and are luckily behind us.
It's incredible how strong of a person she is, while at the same time being weak and vulnerable at times.
>>4209858
Or the line where she asks what you like so she could change in that way? I want an option to tell her not to.
But yeah, the line about her scars hit me pretty hard and I actually had to stop playing there. If you actually had someone break down crying regularly because she thought she would never have a relationship due to her scars (and blindness), it's nothing you are prepared to read in a porn game, even this highly unusual one.
>>4209638
Is there a download for that audio?
>>4209873
No idea. The point is, we can also do 2D with this engine. No problem at all. I wouldn't say this if it wasn't the case, but it is. And in the end the game's executable will not be 55 MB after compiling ...
>>4209878
Yeah, it's there in the link, but you have to pay for it
>>4209868
>>4209883
I'm not really sure I understand.
So, in layman's terms, you have the knowledge necessary to re-write the code for the whole game ( more efficiently and with less bugs)?
What do you mean by "not being able to write in the scripting language"?
Don't you think it might backfire if Ray stops working on the game in response? It's a dubious and double-edged situation.
>>4209887
Writing the whole game in better code with less bugs isn't actually too hard. You don't even need an engine, just Java would be enough (I know, Java sucks) to do that.
However, additions to that new version would then require people to actually know the programming language this would be done in, instead of a simpler scripting language.
I also don't see why he'd stop working on it because of that. His only market is Japan anyway, so if this version would be English only, it wouldn't take away from his sales anymore than the translation patches already do. Sure, he would throw a fit because of it, but I believe that'd be it.
Not the guy you replied to though, just a programmer.
>>4209887
>So, in layman's terms, you have the knowledge necessary to re-write the code for the whole game ( more efficiently and with less bugs)?
Exactly.
>What do you mean by "not being able to write in the scripting language"?
Right now the game scripts, which are located in data/scenario/, are written in a script language (not sure how it's called, some have written "JavaScript" (it does not look like JavaScript though) or TyranoScript - at the end, it does not matter). The way it works is that the game's executable (TeachingFeeling.exe) has parsing code for this script language.
If I ever was to re-implement TF, I'd just cut the parsing stuff entirely and would use Irrlicht to write the entire game logic. Irrlicht is an engine written in C++, so the interface it exports is C++ as well. And in that case I'd rather implement my own little game engine (note that this is not the same as a graphics engine), which would handle most of the "putting images, overlays and fonts together and send them to the screen" stuff, in C++ entirely.
And then I'd publish the source code as well, and people could make even more of it. Because they wouldn't be not limited by the engine, they could actually improve it and insert more dialogs and game logic into it without having to worry that the script language couldn't handle it.
Whenever I am looking into the game scripts, I want to whack the person who decided that they needed this script language, because it's so limited. Actually, if I didn't learn how to audit code by myself, I guess I'd have never picked it up - and I can understand why people don't do that by their own.
>>4209744

Anon here
Cant really say anything on that particular subject without spoiling anything. The route/choice system is extremely intuitive, but there are unspoiled route guides out there if you need them.
What I would give to play it again for the first time.
Actually busted out a paper and pencil for the maou heaven hell riddle
>>4209889
Exactly - Java sucks. :)
No, seriously, I am just a semi-old C/C++ developer (yes, I learned both languages, and yes, there are differences to them which I am aware of) who just tends to imagine how things could be done in a better way. And right now the game is not even using _a_ way, it just crawls through the grass, ignoring all the well-established paths entirely.
