Happy New Year

Hopefully you all have a safe and wonderful time.  As for January translation plans well finish Riot's scenes, clean up Ilias Continent a bit more, and hopefully head off to the next Continent as I want to focus on story since Part 2 isn't far off.

  2. I don't have plans to do it anytime in the near future as I want to wrap up the Ilias Continent (to the point most locations on the map are playable) and heading towards the end of part 1. August is more of a rough estimate as I've heard more around Summer however take into account actual time to work on it (this is a hobby after all) along with how much work was done to get to this point and it doesn't seem that far off. I'm keeping in mind since the games release that the Ilias Continent still isn't finished and months have already been put in. Plus I'm just more interested in the story of Paradox itself and not so much reviewing differences.

  4. 1 - Get the Prototype version
    2 - Get the manual patch for Dargoth's latest version
    http://dargothtranslations.wordpress.com/2015/12/31/mgq-paradox-english-translation-1-21-18/comment-page-1/#comment-13835
    3 - Find these files in Dargoth's version
    * Data\Map051.rvdata2 - Pornof
    * Data\Map052.rvdata2 - Pornof Indoors
    4 - Overwrite the Prototype versions with Dargoth's
    5 - Play...

    Sad to say sometimes Dargoth's team will add or remove a line, most of the time these lines aren't real interesting but it makes alignment a pain as the system EX uses prefers a more 1:1 with the original. I probably should write up some tutorial but eh I'll do it later. Most maps are pretty straight forward just find the Map ID and swap them out. Database files are about the same. Only ones that might be more troublesome are the CommonEvents.rvdata2 and Scripts.rvdata2... General rule is if you just want Dargoth's H-Scenes, which sometimes are original content that don't line up that well, just use his CommonEvents.rvdata2 and for scripts well that's a bit special but if you want his Library Text, Achievements, Battle Cries, ect use his however the EX special scroll items and other things might get messed up. Hope that rough summary helps.

    1. how do you change when it comes to save files?

      Delete
    2. All saves files are in Paradox's main game directory under the "Save" folder.

      Just copy that folder into any variation of Paradox. Like if you keep a copy of the Original, EX, and Dargoth's in separate folders then just copy your Save folder into all three.

      Save[X].rvdata2 is your save with X being it's current slot number and the png file with the same name is a screen shot of that moment.

      SystemSave contains your achievements and other statistical information so keep that in mind if overwrite that with another variant.

    5. Did you Decrypt all files in Game.rgss3a? That's an old file and should be in the 'Graphics' folder that was extracted from Game.rgss3a and moved back to the main game directory.

      Delete
    6. getting undifined method exp_for_level now when in the middle off battle

      Delete
    7. That is one of the basic script calls which is standard on all 3 versions... Should be defined within 'Data\Scripts.rvdata2'

      Are you using all the Data files for the EX version or a hybrid?

      Delete
    8. extract game all files first then overwrite with extracted files then overwrite data with proto files then overwrite it with dargoth data files in manual, after that copy saves with system and backup.
      Two things happen either the game crashed because of something or now that it works that the battle talk translation does not work

      Delete
    9. If you used either all Dargoth's Data files (essentially uninstalling EX and installing Dargoth's) or specifically his CommonEvents.rvdata2, Skills.rvdata2, and Scripts.rvdata2 which contain Battle Dialogue (Conversation, Lose Scenes, and general phrases on Win, Lose, and Attacks) then you will have his translation in those areas or lack thereof.

    10. did that got but got the error again.

    11. You're using EX 0.5p, right?
      Also could you send me your save file(4shared.com, mega.nz, or whatever works for you)?
      And you said this happens to you on any battle with the current party you have or does any specific Actor/Action set if off?

      I'm curious what data is being sent to that script call. If after a few runs I don't see the bug I'll consider the problem to be a faulty installation and will go from there.

    13. Haven't had a chance to test it yet. Technical difficulties, Windows 10 decided it dishonored me so it committed seppuku which doesn't not make me like it more now...

      Delete
    14. At least its better than win8 thought win10 crashes alot at least once a week

      Delete
    15. Ended up going back to Windows 7.

      After a bit of testing with your save I believe I found the problem in Scripts.rvdata2 for Prototype and corrected it. I also updated the main EX with this however I didn't see the problem in that version. Ran round for an hour on both doing random commands, dying, and killing things...

    16. tried worked for a couple of battles then it crashed again should i send the save file with the system and backup save.
      Thank you for your help.

      Delete
    17. Save File and the Error log if it generated one would be helpful.

      System Save mostly has achievement data and the Backup Save is a precaution the game takes in case a save goes bad.

    18. it seems to happen in orc battles 5 times it has been an orc battle of diffrent mixes.

      While testing the Orc Girl and the Bee Girl joined. I'll look over the data a bit more though since it didn't generate that error after a few battles.

    20. Again in the new save sorry takes about 5-10 battles in a row

      Delete
    21. Alright, just to make sure things are in sync I rolled out all changes so far to EX 0.5q. I'll try playing your save under this version and see if it does anything...

      Delete
    22. Well spent an hour testing it on EX and another hour testing it on Prototype 0.5q while running around killing things and being killed. Nothing notable happen yet some girls did join. The save bellow is just a booby prize from the test run on EX 0.5q, since the problem didn't arise during my two runs...

    Does this just clear up Pornof's dialog or Everyone else's contribution to the conversations with him too. (Will I understand what is being said between him, Luka, Sonya, etc.?)

    ReplyDelete

    1. That would replace the dialogue in Pornof (not including dialogue that is contained in Common Events) with a different version. Looking at Dargoth's progress spreadsheet his team has completed the outdoors but not the indoors (131/415 or 31.6%)... I cleaned up that area about 2 months ago so whichever version you prefer.

      The conversations I'm waiting to be cleaned up, are inside the buildings of Pornof. Specifically, the conversations between the panty-teacher and Luka & party.

      Delete
    3. Most of what the Panties Teacher says is just commentary on panties... after he sniffs them. There are a few of them where he looses his freakin mind do to their 'quality' which sometimes ends with him soiling himself.

      Though I cleaned up the area there isn't much I can do for when he goes insane...

      If he ask to join it's simply to see the panties of the world.

      He also gives a brief tutorial on what Job you need to have in order to steal panties.

      Dd you clean up the conversation between him, luka, & sonya. I think she gives her panties the first time you talk to him, though I couldn't make out most of the conversation between the three, last I played.

      Delete
    5. For the Panties Teacher I don't see Sonya really saying much to him in that event in Pornof.

      She will sell her panties to the Perverted Old Man that's right beside him if you want her to though for 200G.

      If you want Sonya's Panties I'm pretty sure you have to steal them from either Sonya Mazuda or Sonya Man'yu

    It'll be nice if they changed the cg, of her attack when the panties are sold/stolen,lol.

    Will you please lean up the first conversations for the Perverted Old Man & panties-teacher, next EX patch release. As well as the first and follow up conversation with Luka, Sonya and the guy in the house you first come upon when arriving in Pornof.
    I know there's probably not much in these, but I guess it could be a quick fix then. TY

  7. There isn't much with the Panties Teacher and the Perverted Old Man that is really off to me but I'll correct a few lines.

    As for the Scat Captain well I don't really understand much of what he says so there isn't much I can do with him... Now I'm reminded of Ilias's request scene... I hope she gets some wholesome scenes in part 2.

  8. hey dev, the game crashes when some girls(junk dolls, paintgeist and large spider) try to join my party
    :(

    1. Hmm...
      What version are you using?
      Did it generate an "errors.txt" file in the main game directory?
      If so could you post a link with that along with your save?

      Delete
    2. using EX 0.5p (i think)

    3. Seems something was wrong with the save data and it didn't want to setup the data for the following actors:
      157 - Ashidaka - Large Spider
      179 - Shinifa - Apoptosis
      181 - Lisa - Paintgeist
      184 - Francesca - Junk Doll Girl
      701 - Nero - Unemployed

      I'm still puzzled as to why those specific ones where affected so I'll look into this some more however Junk Doll Girl joined the group while I was testing the fix... Could you try loading this save file?

  10. Just found that there was a second translation project going on. I had only known of dargoth's. Had a couple questions. When you say "Sad to say sometimes Dargoth's team will add or remove a line, most of the time these lines aren't real interesting but it makes alignment a pain as the system " does that mean they're actually adding or removing dialog or just cleaning up breaks in the script? I'm kind of sad to hear if it's the former. Also, I was curious. Is the EX project a completely machine translated project, or machine assisted? Thanks for the effort regardless.

    ReplyDelete
  11. They do actually remove some dialogue and rework some others. Some of it's just aesthetic choices where something was valid becomes redundant if reworded slightly. Unfortunately that leaves me curious about the subtle differences... The EX project is a bit of a hybrid, a mass amount of it was completely machine translated early on however as it gets cleaned up its becoming more assisted.
