Do you have a question about a Japanese visual novel or a translation of it?
/vn/ is ready to answer it. We are not them.

Why the fuck y'all so lazy edition
Thread seems pretty dead, but dumb renpy question:
Main menu music won't play. No error message, just no sound.
config.main_menu_music = "menusong.mp3"
Things that aren't the problem:
>I didn't mute anything
>The filename is typed properly
>it's in the main game directory folder (though maybe it needs to be somewhere else? no idea)
>nothing regarding music or sound is hashtagged out when it shouldn't be
>I tried adding "init python:
config.debug_sound = True" didn't do shit.
I can't find any solution to this.
>>147259310
Are you sure you didn't mute the audio inside the game? Is your default volume level set to 0? Is your file correctly formatted to be mp3? Does your mp3 have any uppercase letters?
>>147260335
No. I actually just tried, and music inside the game plays absolutely fine. I just played the menu song in the game, worked fine. No uppercase letters, the file seems to play fine, the volume isn't set strangely. I have no idea what the problem is.
>>147260601
Dunno man, are you on an old version that might have had a bug? Best bet would be to ask on the lem forums.
>>147260972
I'm on the latest version.
>>147260601
Maybe that specific .mp3 file's encoding is fucked in a way so ren'py can't play it? Try using one of the files that already works as gameplay music for the main menu.
>>147256442
>Why the fuck y'all so lazy edition
Because we are actually working, for once.
>>147259310
Did you do anything else weird to configure the main menu that might cause it to not look at that particular config note?
Did you uncomment it? (stupid but hey)
Try altering other codes nearby to be sure that section is being called and not overridden by something.
>>147262089
Well I figured it out. It was literally just the options script being fucking retarded and somehow not understanding that I had made changes to it. I've had problems with that before so I guess that explains it.
>>147262264
Something like that happened to me while using the reload script command. Apparantly changed something while loading and renpy got stuck with the older version. Had to modify the file and save it again for the program to recognize the change.
>>147262660
Cute.
Coming from a Russian imageboard.
What do you guys think about Everlasting Summer? It's like Katawa Shoujo, but for Russian imageboards.
>>147264609
I liked it. The backgrounds were particularly gorgeous. The English version has lots of typos and bad grammar, though.
>>147266523
her boobs look like a weird man chest.
>>147266650
i'm torn between eyerolling at how people call absolutely anything they dislike 'manly' even if it involves giant naked H-cup tits, and critiquing the parts of the chest that do look a bit weird.
like the combination of the way the boobs are shaded and the emphasis lines with the compression caused by that top, seems physically a little weird somehow? that top is designed to press in, and she's clearly nowhere near flat, but the boobs don't seem to be reacting to it? I don't know. Clothes are hard.
>>147269228
Looks hilarious

That's awfully specific. Was 2004 the international year of angst or something?
Seeing how UAB and VA-11 are better than anything /evn/ has managed to produce in years, should the general be renamed to /wvn/ Western Visual Novel General so it stops being semi-dead?

>>147272664

>not an evn
???
>>147272664
Sure, why not. Let's admit it, our real common denominator here is not being JVN.
>>147272664
The title has never really stopped us from talking about any non-english vn. It wouldn't make much of a difference.
>>147272664
Wouldn't that rule out the Malaysians, you racist? That's half of LSF right there.
We're basically just "non japanese" but that sounds lame in a title.
>>147273421
Malaysia is slightly west of Japan. Ain't that enough?

>>147281241
Please
In renpy, how to you make the song repeat faster? In the game there's always a short but noticeable pause after the track ends but before it repeats. It's not the music itself, if I make it replay in other software it's instant.
Looks like the people bitching about Tao not finishing Dizzy Hearts yet has gotten a reaction. He's decided to put Toko on hold until next year to complete Dizzy Hearts first, since Toko would've slowed down Dizzy Heart's completion. That's good news for kickstarter backers, but I bet Steam users will be pissed.
>>147283945
I think nobody here gives a fuck any more a this point.
>>147284280
It was literally just a few days ago on this thread that people where complaining about Dizzy Hearts not being released while they worked on other games. He also made a comment about people thinking they're not working as hard as they could, so it sounds like people bitching here caused him to change his development plans.
>>147285117
>caused him to change his development plans.
i wouldn't flatter yourself so much.
i think it's a bad decision either way. why spend time on an art revamp and VA for toko chapter one, just to say the sequel is another 2 years in the works?
>>147272919
Are you trying to say UAB isn't hands down the best EVN in existence?
>>147285117
There are definitely people sulking abotu Dizzy Hearts not coming out. Is anyone actually invested in updates for Toko anymore?
>>147283285
Anybody know?
>>147286004
It's just a lolifucking game with a rather unentertaining story. The lolis aren't even hot.
>>147286261
Why do you hate our freedom?
>>147286124
There isn't a 'repeat faster' command because there is no intentional delay. I've looped tracks without noticeable problems.
>>147286261
>>147285856
He had plans to release Toko chapter 1 in fall, evn complains about his lack of focus and that his kickstarter project which is the oldest still isn't done, suddenly and days later decides to make oldest game top priority and delay other game. It's an odd coincidence if evn didn't influence him at all.
>>147286034
The thousands of people who bought it on Steam care.
>>147286675
>>147286261
Hideous.
>>147287282
>my opinion is fact
>>147286968
Having thousands of owners doesn't mean thousands of people are eagerly waiting for it to be updated. How many hour-long games you bought and played a year ago would you replay now if they suddenly released an art upgrade?
>>147287339
Your opinion IS fact when it's your opinion about your own opinion. Someone else saying hairy backs are hot isn't going to make them hot to you.
>>147272919
>>147286004
You can say what you want about the premise and art style, that's your opinion, but there's no denying it's extremely impressive. Especially considering the fact that it was made almost entirely by one guy in only 2 years.
>>147287567
Meant for
>>147286261
Also props for that the fact that it's free and the guy didn't jew out with a kickstarter and patreon.
>>147287817
I think a loli game is one of those things you don't really want to have traced back to your bank account, especially in sjw europe.
>>147287817
I can't imagine a kickstarter for a game like UAB would go over very well.
>>147287920
Good point. I'm surprised with how lenient Patreon seems to be with that content though.
>>147286547
On any other music playing program the loop is perfect but on renpy there's always a pause. I really don't know why.
>>147288051
>Patreon
They're probably already collectiong addresses for various alphabet soup agencies waiting for the government to change porn or rape laws.
>>147288615
I sincerely hope notfor my own sake
>>147287920
damn the EU, trying to run our lives!
>>147288923
They're desperate for news that distract from the stagnant economy and rapefugee invasion.
A trial for kiddy fiddlers is always a welcome cover to push some shit through parliament.
D:
Steam sale is almost over. What evns are worth picking up?
>>147288923
wut
>>147291923
None. It's either shit VNs or shit rebates.
>>147292406
rebates?
>>147292927
Rebates.
>>147291923
Sunrider Academy is on a really big discount. It's shit, but if you're into it, good time to pick it up.
The Way We All GO and Asphyxia are both really cheap and the author's works are usually okayish, certainly okay enough for $1.50.
Science Girls isn't a VN but it's a buck so if you want to see someone abuse RenPy to make an RPG, there it is.
Impulse is 60% off which isn't bad but it's TyranoBuilder so honestly I'm still waiting for a higher discount
That's about it for the best discounts (not necessarily the best games) although honestly if you don't own it already, screw the EVNs and buy The House in Fata Morgana instead.
>>147292981
I'm not sure what you mean by that. Are you suggesting something having to do with getting a game's cost back through selling cards?
Is the SJW assumption that PyTom is a dudebro true?
>>147293754
He's male and republican. For certain sects that means he's automatically the enemy. Worse, he's a white cis het male. But don't expect all SJWs to agree with each other on anything, they hate themselves as much as they hate anything else.
Should I buy Starlight Vega or Highway Blossoms?
>>147297038
Yes.
Also, A Little Lily Princess.
Maybe even that Rising Angels game if you're up for it.

>>147298384
I can see why people would pass on RA: Hope. Reborn was more of a sci-fi investigation/mystery, while Hope was a high school comedy in space. They felt pretty disconnected to me. Fates should be better, because it's a direct sequel to Reborn.
>>147298384
Or not pirate any of them and buy them slowly but surely.
>>147298632
I think it was better for the series that Reborn took it away from the school stuff.

>>147315998
But then we wouldn't see it :/
>>147316176
You would see it, but it would have to be erect.
Is there any visual novel out there with:
a.) complex dialogue and decision trees
b.) a choice with a consequence at least every 10 sentences so I don't get bored
c.) some randomness to spice things up

Improve your drawing and redraw chars. Repeat as many times as necessary.
If you really can't into art afterall, hire a pro artist with the money you get from KS/flipping burgers for 2 years/mommy and daddy handouts/selling your manwomb to fetishists.
Go back to the drawing board and unfuck your story. Rewrite the messed up parts. Flat out discard shit.
No one will post shit here ever because if something becomes popular it will get its own general.
>This is so much work.
Yes. So get back to it.
Alright. Being a retard at writing stories. Is it a good idea to have a narrator in a VN? I don't play many of them, but I really want to make one. I have no explanation for that, but here I am. I'm thinking of having a narrator that persists through the entire VN making comments here and there. Is this a terrible idea? Should it just be the characters talking to each other?
>>147320382
Reality is the worst.
>>147320676
No, Not a bad idea. I remember a few JVNs that do that. It's just less common than the ordinary first person narrative.
>Should it just be the characters talking to each other?
You are always going to need some sort of glue to keep it together. Be that the narrator's voice or the MC inner monologue, both serve the same purpose. Of course nuances in perspective vary.
>>147320815
So brave it and make me proud, dammit!
>>147321095
Thanks. I guess I really need to just play some VNs. I feel like I'm diving into the deep end here without knowing how to swim.
>>147321160
Always the best for /evn/. Just don't say too many terrible things about my game or me if I ever release anything. Please.
>>147321175
Yeah you do that. Saya no Uta uses third person perspective, if you are interested. For a more EVN experience try the pastebins. Also go read at least a few routes from Katawa Shoujo since is basically the standard by which you'll get measured. Try UAB if you are not offended by lolis (patrician taste tip: you shouldn't be).
>>147321537
>Saya no Uta uses third person perspective, if you are interested.
Thanks, I'll check them out.
Also lolis offend me very much. Death to loli.
>>147320676
Why do you want a narrator?
First person or third person, past tense or present tense depends on the theme you're going for. Third person creates a level of distance to the story etc.
>>147321935
I want to have a narrator for a couple of reasons. I started writing the script in a text file and automatically added bits that were read by a narrator because it felt natural. I want to be able to speak to the reader from an angle that wouldn't be obvious from the viewpoint of the main character, break the fourth wall, explain the world, etc. I also want the reader to feel like they're part of the story, so I almost don't want to ruin that feeling by adding a narrator. I hope that made some kind of sense. I'm not sure if a narrator is an easy way to break immersion or not. If they don't feel like part of the story, the magic is kinda lost.
>>147321705
Saya no Uta has loli. Sort of. Just a heads up.
>>147322426
That's cool. I was just messing around.
Also, anything for science right?
>>147318175
Neither of them has randomness (IMO it's not a VN if it's random) but they do have a lot of choices with effects.
>>147318175
>bionic heart
>long live the queen
I already played the later and the former is unappealing to me...
>>147324014
Cinders? I think the choices are fairly frequent and they all affect the hidden stats which change the endings, iirc.
Haven't played Solstice so not sure about it
Saya no Uta is just full of surprises isn't it? Was not expecting the first CG with her at all.
>>147326434
That's nice. Post about it in /vn/ not here
>>147326852
Consider it a bump then that contains something remotely related to the topic.
How much money do "good" artists generally charge for a full project? Like, for ten characters, each with four different poses/expressions or whatever (happy, sad, surprised, angry)?
Is $20,000 a good price range for that kind of work for the artist? Tried looking at the OP but couldn't find much on actual price ranges people generally charge.
>>147326952
You're asking solely about ten sprites with almost no expressions, no cgs, no backgrounds, and you think that's worth a year's salary? I want to be your artist.
>>147327250
He said "good" though.
>>147327363
Even among pro artists I've never seen anyone charge more than $200 a sprite, and most people here are paying a fraction of that.
>>147327454
Maybe they added one too many zeros.
>>147326952
20k is more like the budget for an entire evn.

>>147329452
I know that feel.
>>147326852
If someone is playing a JVN for research purposes and then comment about it, is it relevant to /evn/?
>>147327647
What's the budget for a jvn?
>>147329652
while I am not the god of this thread, I'd say that it would be mostly best only to talk about abstract and technical details and not to comment on the plot, which both risks random spoilers and veering into discussion which has nothing to do with development.
Discussing a technical effect done in a JVN and how/whether to pull it off yourself is obviously on-topic.
Discussing what a gut-punch it was when it turned out Mariko was fucking Hiroshi is not.
>>147329652
Exactly what >>147330152
said. Tech details and how to apply them makes sense to post here, everything else can fuck right off.
JVNs relate to EVNs since they are by nature the same format. Sure, bitch all you want about discussions when they happen, but please stop sticking your pinkies up people's asses for no reason.
>>147330650
'The untitted' seems a fitting handle for such a flat chick.
>>147329729

>tfw sunrider was shit on every front

>>147337036
I find it odd that its copycat, ACE Academy, will probably be a more appealing game when it gets completed.
>>147336824
Anyone who buys an episodic indie game is a moron, really, the vast majority are guaranteed to never be finished.
>>147337971
If nothing else Tao could turn it into a light novel series like those short stories he's posted of it on his website.
>>147338309
I just remembered that Sekai Project is planning to starting publishing manga and light novels, so this could actually be a good idea. That way you'd only need the writer and a few images versus needing a ton artwork, music, and programming.
How come writing tires the hell out of me but drawing eats hours and hours without any apparent impact on my mental stamina?
>>147338530

translating them you mean? Also isn't LN niche in the west occupied by YA fiction already? Pretty much only hardcore weebs care about LNs and they sure as hell won't buy "original english light novels".

Uses totally different parts of your brain. Look on Twitch and you'll see artists carrying on conversations with their chat while drawing. I used to listen to long podcasts like This American Life and Radiolab while doing sketches and coloring. Doing that kind of thing while writing would be impossible unless you have two brains.
>>147342881
How much time are you spending at the gym anon? Are you one of those people spending hours upon hours at the elliptical? A year ago I decided to start lifting and all told I spend less than 2 hours a week working out following the Rippetoe routine, and in the past 2 years I have muscled up from from 150 lbs with 25% body fat to 160 lbs with 10% body fat (so I lost 20 lbs of fat and gained 30 lbs of muscle). This was after years of trying to lose fat through hours on the treadmill and other cardio, at one point I was running 1 mile every day and my weight was still pretty stagnant. High intensity exercise for a short duration seems to be way more effective than low intensity exercise for a long duration.
Also, could just be that I started lifting around the time that I finished school and got a "real" job, but it also seems to have improved my sleep as well. I used to stay up every night until like 4 AM and then wake up at 9 AM (couldn't sleep in even if I tried), always felt perpetually tired, now I fall asleep every night at around midnight without any trouble and get a solid 7.5 hours per night. I sleep more but I get more work done because when I was insomniac the hours from midnight to 4 AM could never be productive time for me because I was too mentally tired to do anything creative but not physically tired enough to fall asleep.

>but it also seems to have improved my sleep as well.
Perhaps it's not the most credible source, but surely cute girls make it easier to believe.
>>147362640
Having two brains would be great.
Are we there yet, mom?
>>147370298
SGDQ is going on, so I'm just doing game coding instead of writing. It requires less thought.

This is why we can't have nice things. Humans are full retard.
>>147373249
>Almost guaranteed to be still stealing art.
They are very obviously not still stealing art, unless you think they came across a game where the characters turn into elves, cat girls, demons, sexy ninja turtles and bunny girls.
>>147373738
You don't seem to understand how art theft, or even art in general works. I'm surprised you can even type full sentences.
>>147373814
It's true. I have to steal my sentences.
>>147373814
Don't tell me you're stupid enough to be thinking they're just editing stolen assets.
>>147373249
>1 update per month.
>Full average or better quality VN earnings for a year each month.
if I had 16k to work with i'd make something really incredible, not dragging out production of a boring porn vn. i'm spending 2k on just the writing for my next VN and I have to cut content to balance it with the final profit line estimate.
>>147374086
Struck a nerve did I? Don't take it personally. I don't mind if you support them. I just think you're half braindead.
>>147374321
I like that when you insult me it's just banter, but when I do it's because you struck a nerve. I don't support them.
real meal for 5 bucks?
>>147374565
That's nice. Listen.
If you get caught stealing TVs and your future livelihood comes from selling TVs, you're just going to have to deal with people suspecting you of still stealing TVs. That's just how the world works. Also, I'm not insulting you, I'm insulting your intelligence. It's not your fault for how you were born.
>>147374812
It's kind of stupid to suspect someone of still stealing TVs when they're posting the process of them being manufactured, but you're right. That's just how the world works.
>>147375280
>It's kind of stupid to suspect someone of still stealing TVs when they're posting the process of them being manufactured
It really depends, doesn't it? You clearly follow them more closely than I do, so you probably know more about them. I don't know if they're streaming all the art being created from scratch, or not. I don't really care, since the faces just look like a poorly done Ishikei clone and the bodies have wonky anatomy. If they do show the entire process, perhaps they are indeed legit. Maybe they even changed artists. I wouldn't know. Anything less is probably just them throwing scraps to the pigeons.

I'm offended by ugly lolis.

Pleb.
>>147376318
It's impossible not to considering you'll need to eat and drink tho
>>147378254
Do you really, though?
>>147378254
Well that applies to everything you do, not just VNs. And you can always get a patreon so people will pay for your food and drinks.
>>147378646
Or in the case of some, pay your entire monthly mansion mortgage, and the monthly pay for your house servants.
>>147379082
By then your house servants will end up making you vn, too.
>>147379424
Damn right. They're servants after all. If they don't do what you want, you just whip them until they want it.
>>147374152
>can't even write his own VN
I hope you are the artist of the project, so you at least have an excuse.
>>147381103
i'm slow and busy
>>147374152
>Full average or better quality VN earnings for a year each month.
Nah, if you have a few decent VNs on sale you'll make that in a month.
>>147381515
>if you have a few decent VNs
Yeah, but that's multiple VNs, and multiple decent quality VNs at that. Quite an achievement for the loners here.
Saya no Uta had like 50 people working on it, and Japanese are hard workers. We aren't all capable of amazing feats here.
>>147376102
Both what they did and the amount of money they're making now for a newgrounds tier flash vn thoroughly disgusts me, but maybe, just maybe, they're making enough with that 16k a month to hire a decent artist.
>>147382661
and I meant to add that I finished all the routes in under 4 hours. A large portion of the BGs were filtered real life photos too.
>>147382790
>but maybe, just maybe, they're making enough with that 16k a month to hire a decent artist.
You never give people like that the benefit of the doubt. They're probably buying tons of other shit they don't need since it's probably the first time they've had real money since they left high school. Most people take the easiest possible route always.
:D
>>147382661
I earn more than that a month but I don't expect most of you to be able to live up to my standard.
Prove me wrong with your awesome games.
>>147388574
Hi Hanako
>>147388574
To prove you wrong, you first have to provide some kind of substantial evidence supporting your claim. Otherwise you're just some random anon making more stupid shit up like what happens thousands of times every day in threads just like these.
Are you trolling? Are you secretly trying to motivate people? We may never know.
So, is Sekai Project going to announce any exciting EVN news?
>>147389485
>Please give me your bank account info
top fucking kek, the shit you see on 4chan.
>>147389641
They will post about them on their twitter. Except for Highway Blossoms, which will get their trailer shown.
>>147389741
Surely there are better ways to demonstrate wealth. Like buying everyone presents.
>>147389641
Yes,for alienworks
anh
what
>>147389741
This is exactly why no one should ever listen to stuff like that or take it seriously on 4chan. It can't be and won't be proven. Trolls like you know this. Then they proceed to reply to any replies to their trolling with reaction images and green texting. It makes no sense to me. You might as well be doing something useful with your time like working on something worthwhile, but you're wasting your life on stupid shit like that. Does it give you self worth?
>>147392214
>Person asks for bank account details
>Laugh, make a joke post with a reaction image
>They respond with a funny post, we both probably laugh and move on
>[you]
Maybe you should lighten up instead of assuming everyone is trying to "troll" and instead have a good time. You probably can't do that though.
>>147392214
But you're also wasting your time preaching to people on 4chan.
>>147392464
I'm trying to lighten upbut i'm still fat
Sekai's panel has begun! I'm ready to be disappointed by everything,, EVN and JVN alike!
>>147392654
Being fat is better than being extremely skinny at least.
>>147392946
How so?
>>147392464
I have a great time, annoying trolls like you.
>>147392946
Only if you're literally-dying-from-malnutrition skinny.
>>147392464
There was nothing funny about it, and if you honestly think trolling and reaction images are funny you need your brain checked.
>>147392782
Why the heck is the quality so low?
>>147393192
>if you have a different sense of humor than me you need your brain checked
