Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Also put up my patreon due to requests but nuked my patreon due to even more requests.

Well, you should still offer some way to donate. Some people would like to show their appreciation. Additionally, I think it is ridiculous people complained about it. Good God, if you don't like it, don't freakin' donate, problem solved. Translations are a lot of work.
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Thanks for the translation M1zuki :D btw I just noticed this but the name of the alchemist girl in Coldia is inconsistent, when you talk to her, her name is spelled as Norun but on the quest menu her name is spelled as Norn

a fun little exploit I found to be rich is for you to finish the alchemist quest in Coldia and then buy all the gold ore you can afford then transmute them into gold ingot to sell for profit XD (of course you should save before attempting this, I always save every 5 times)

I guess some people were concerned about the moral/legal implications over accepting donations for translating other people's games. Obviously my intention isn't to profit by 'stealing' other people's work, but I could see how someone might see it that way. I just wanted to translate games so more people can enjoy them and thought donations could help me spend more time and energy to do exactly that. But I don't want anyone to think I don't respect content creators or anything like that. That couldn't be farther from the truth, so I'm just pulling my patreon down for now.

Yeah I might have to do a cleanup between the inconsistencies between my translations and yariel's. I was actually pretty pleased because we were pretty aligned in the way we translated most names, items, skills, etc, but in that particular case I went with Norun over Norn because it sounded more feminine. I might switch it though because it's probably a reference to Norse mythology like the Yggdrasil, etc.

Some other random interesting things with some spoilers:
When you finish the game and have the choice to start a fresh or continued game, if you refuse 3 times it starts a new game anyway, except you hear a demon laughing and your title becomes "sacrifice of the abyss." It's creepy.

For some reason when your karma is 100, you can understand what the cow is saying when you return to Misthorn (It's just about how her milk has been squeezed dry... *shrug*)

The Coldia minister has a porn book in his bookshelves, and there's even a hint about it in the "Citizen's" apartment room, but it wasn't even possible for the player to reach it. I think the author didn't realize the flags act as barriers, so I moved it to a reachable location. There's an unreachable fairy coin in the ruins before Endoll castle that drives my OCD nuts too.

There's a Fran's Dream #2 in both the CG room and in the event scripts, but they're empty.

There's a bug in the yariel's version where if you do a new game plus the farmer in Misthorn would give you milk for the quest again and again but the quest wasn't possible to complete. I restored it to the original game's scripts to fix the bug.

As far as I know there's only 3 story-based karma checkpoints. If your karma is 0 when the pirate ship sinks, or when you stay the night at the Ceres monastery, you get extra dream scenes of Fran's past. One of them has books with scattered text that are a pain in the butt to translate so I don't blame yariel for skipping it. Maybe I will make an attempt later. There's the sword in the Oldelion temple but actually that has no relevancy to the story.

The last checkpoint that decides the endings is when your grandpa dies. If you didn't read the book in Fran's house after defeating the Barbatos family in Endoll, you get the normal ending. If you read the book and your karma is 50 or higher when your grandfather dies, you get the 'bad end'. If it's lower than 50, you get the 'true end'. (Once you reach 50 karma in the game you can't reduce it lower than that, afaik.)

I think there's plenty more but that's all I can remember for now.

Anyway I'm still slowly revising the game bit by bit and still considering retranslating all the H-scenes in the cg room.

I don't get the complaints. You aren't stealing content, you are accepting donations for translating content. This is like saying translators of various things around the world don't deserve to be paid.

So sad that some people show literally negative appreciation for the time we waste to translate these games...
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Anyone know how to remove clothes?
I saw this option in costume menu, but I dont know how to get this nude option
I've tried 100 karma and get alternate ending but still cant get it except I get h-attack from pink monsters then nude :(
Am I missed some specific CGs which reward "remove clothes" or what?
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

I believe going full nude isn't an option, since in town you'd get caught anyway. It might be just for the sake of the creator's flexibility, so he can use that one in his events more easily.
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Well, I saw it in someone's save. I still havent got it by myself...

Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

I was planning to make the game sooner or later, but thanks to m1zuki seems now it will become a priority soon!

My hat off for you m1zuki !
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

So, I messed up in Endoll, I think. I did received the Barbados ring and used it before I started doing the quest to look up on them. I also can't do the pub thing right now.

I thought it was silly that you get locked out of the pub scenes once you get the ring, but since I'm a purist at heart I left it how it was.
If you want to though just replace this map and it'll allow you to work at the pub if you wear the bunny suit, even if you have the ring.


Also I finished the CG room. Went script diving to find/fix the untranslated/typoed battle dialogues that were getting on my nerves. I'm sure there's a lot of imperfections left like cut off item/skill names, but I think I'm done hunting for revisions and will just call this game complete. Hopefully it did yariel and Sorter justice.
If you guys find any bugs I will probably go back to fix it but for now I think I'm gonna hang up my coat and take a rest. I wanted to tackle a few more games but running low on time and hp.

Anyway, enjoy the game guys~

Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Firstly, thank you so much for finishing the translation! I thought it would never see the light of day. I'm even getting a bit emotional. Good thing I held off playing until now. :eek:

...Anyway, I've found an untranslated line. It's the chamberpot(?) in Fran's cell on Prison Island. It goes like this:

"ここで用を足せってことみたいね"

You might want to wait for more potentially untranslated text though...
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Np I fixed it. Thanks for spotting it.
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Many thanks for the translation work m1zuki
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Finally finished the game! And what a game it was. Thanks again for finishing the translation. Music is incredible in this game! Would anyone happen to know where to get them?

Also, how do you get the high karma ending? I read the guide and tried everything, but it didn't work. And that part about giving the 100 diamonds to the fortune teller... does something really happen? or is that just a joke?
 
Re: [RJ120635] [Eclipse works] Ariadne

Thanks m1zuki for the translation! If you're still looking to fix minor things, then in New Game+, Fran's title is not translated.
