It's happening! Translation is incoming (kind of)
I am beginning the process of machine translating everything in the base game. Building off my experience with Goblin Burrow, I think I have figured out a way to snag the majority of displayed text in the game already. Might take me a bit of time to integrate and hunt down any missing text. I am doing everything from scratch with my own code.
Unlike Goblin Burrow, I do not currently have plans to cleanup the MTL for this game. Based on the description, the relative interest from people, and other games I am more excited to translate, Virgin Lode 2 is not worth my time. I will provide all the MTL in an easy to edit format so that if anyone wants to cleanup the MTL they can do that and I will handle the technical side of things.
Also unlike Goblin Burrow, the DLC are not readily available and I don't feel like spending money on this game yet. Currently I have the base game and DLC 1 from before bugfixes were applied by peperoncino. If you bought the game and DLC, and want to be a hero of the people maybe DM me a download link?

Integration hell has begun. I have all the tech working for scraping, translating, and then rebuilding the game files with the translated text, and it appears I have a working, if extremely bad, MTL.
There are a lot of kinks to work out, in part because the devs are extremely sloppy with how they format their in-game text. KiriKiri has word-wrapping, but it's also pretty bad so I don't blame them.

Okay, so good news, and bad news.
Good news, the game is at 99% MTL and I have all of the JPN lines I've found so far in an easy to edit format for people who want to help clean it up or translate it but don't want to beat their head against a wall trying to figure out how this game is coded. At this time, I'm only going to make the scenario files available. The system files also contain some key elements that need translation but they are also the places where even small changes break the game, so I'm gonna work on them for now.
You can find the
Bad news, I seem to have fucked up something in the code that checks for ending conditions. As of right now, you can only get the time out ending or presumably you can get the defeated ending. There are also several goods which you should be able to sell for other good things than money, but in this release you cannot.
Also bad news, I am going off grid for the next week, so I'm gonna push you all this mostly-baked build then abandon you for a bit.
I am at my MEGA transfer cap, so your speed may vary.

Big thank you to Thai2410 who has been helping with the translation work.

Alright, this is basically complete as far as an MTL goes. Gonna see how much progress gets made on cleaning up the MTL before I push an official release, but if you're okay with the MTL, this version has everything.

Tiny bug fix patch for Virgin Lode 2 correcting an issue with Rafaella's Torture scene. Just put the patch_1.xp3 file into your Virgin Lode 2 game directory, check for an updated version number 3.21.7.19 when you boot up at the bottom left of the screen.
Also, look at me, getting all fancy with Kirikiri.
