Others Complete [REQ] Evenicle 2 [Alicesoft]

[Surgy]

I was able to get PNG/JPEG and other raw resources out of AFA with latest arc_unpacker compiled from its github repo. But this doesn't really help with translation.
The game seems to be using original QNT and AJP (JPEG-like format embedded with PMS-bitmap mask) for images, FNL for PMS-bitmap fonts and some unknown formats for other things like text/scripts etc. It seems really PITA to translate this and Rance 10 without developers' help because one needs to write encoders for all those custom formats, AFA-bundle packer (or make the game access unpacked resources somehow which will simplify things a lot), and somehow reverse-engineer how the game keeps texts and way to reencode them back to original format. So the game is no-go for translators who don't want to seriously dedicate their effort.

manga gamers publicly said that they will work on this officially (uncensored),

this topic is pointless.

Lol yes, why would one even start such topic, we can just wait till 2024 when mangagamer will release this game...

Best you'll get here is a shitty machine translation.

I wont get it, because I tried this game and didnt like it, felt really worse than first part, tho some people think that machine translation is better than nothing.

I was thinking of translating/picture editing some basic things, like status screen, some buttons, item names and descriptions etc like that, and tried to mess around with ALD Explorer and AIN Decompiler from the tlwikidotorg page (currently down), but just for test after I recompiled all the original qnt files, the game ran with missing or misplaced gray empty buttons images right from the game start menu. AIN Decompiler couldn't even open the ain file

Does anyone know how to use machine translation for this game? or has someone already done it?

I don't know, and pretty sure noone has tried or it just works so bad that they don't want to publish.

recently so maybe there will be some unofficial progress in this regard, I mean faster than 2024 or for other games using this engine.

Mangagamer already picked the game up and they did a fine job translating the first.

The translation will be released in less than a year so no reason to start unofficial translations now.

But other alicesoftgames can profit from this tool.

Evenicle 2 english release seems to be in house english translation by Alicesoft themselves so I guess we can hope for a better translation this time

 

[lowtierntrgod]

steam just banned it

 

[Captain Wet Beard]

Yup, Alicesoft says they're selecting other storefronts for publishing, so it'll probably end up on itch.io and/ or DLsite.

O, well.. Gotta wait for an English download source then.
