I wouldn't recommend downloading this so-called “v70.” Chinese guys write that it is an unofficial update that adds nothing but bugs, and it is 60 GB not because of more content but because the creator does not know how to compress files.Guy just wanted to make some money on famous name

From what I understand V70 was made by the real author but then deleted because of bugs and then other players fixed the bugs. I have seen the changelog of the bug fixing but didnt bookmark the sites since all the download links were paid hosters or buy coin from our forum to unlock the download link type of sites. I will check tomorrow again but even if we get it from the chinese forum to f95zone. Someone would need to translate it still the previous translator doesn't seem to be interested in this game anymore which I can understand it been years and he did a lot of work.

Translate this 1737636892389.png to english its the instruction readme and thank you for going to such lengths to obtain the V70.
This might not be the one with the community patch but we can patch the game files ourselves the code simple just need to translate from chinese to english

Okay then it is something else. I would need to check it in my VM what the issue is I am not that versed with QSP to remotely debug an issue. Will do it once you have the gofile link up.

Done GOFILE link should be ready.
Thanks got the game files cleaned up the folder a bit. You want to go in this folder and extract the archive 1737663122848.png
Now go in the extracted folder and keep going till you see this qsp file 1737663512248.png
You want to take that and replace it with the qsp file in SOA如诗如画版\assets\standalone_content
You dont need to transfer the rest they are the same only the qsp file was different.
That one most likely contains the bug fixes the community did to get the game running.
You run the game with this binary 1737663375102.png
The other one is to debug stuff. It is basically a shortcut to run the debug patch files which runs the libglesv2 script file.

I'll see tomorrow if I can get the english patch running to partially translate text. The new stuff from V60 to 70 will of course not be translated. I might machine translate those on the weekend. Also I might repackage the files for the users here there are a lot of folders etc that are not needed.

The other folder that is around 1.4GB is not needed can be ignored.

After figuring the script and qsp out I started translating the text. This will be actually a ton of work and because some parts of the code was changed I can not copy the work that already has been done. I will most likely open a github or crowdin repo to make this a community translation project. As long as the majority is not translated to english we can't make an update on this thread. Non-english updates/releases are getting rejected and I won't dedicate the majority of my free time to translate this on my own.

As a Chinese player, I can be sure that the last official version is V60.FF.
After releasing the last version, the author deleted his Patreon account and decided to disappear from everyone's radar.
Other versions, such as V65 and V70, are MOD-like versions created by other players. When playing these versions, there is a relatively high chance of encountering various bugs. Although some MOD authors promptly release patches, it might not be easy for English-speaking players to find these fixed versions.
So, it's best to stick with version V60.
The post above has a great plan for the V70.
(Besides, if you are using version V60.FF and suddenly encounter an issue where the text and images are misaligned and a specific Chinese song starts playing, this is not a bug but rather an indication that some cheating has been detected, such as the use of Cheat Engine. To resolve this issue, you should go to the church at exactly 0:00 and click on the images in the following sequence: 4, 3, 2, 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 11, 10, 9.)

Interesting, would you think the added content in the modded versions (V65 & V70) are worth keeping an eye on until they're fixed?

This might depend on whether you like the new characters or not.
As for me, since the story has already concluded, the "DLC" content essentially amounts to additional film clips.
Therefore, I'm not very inclined to play it——if I'm into those new characters, I'd like to watch their films instead.
Of course, the game's large size, combined with the risk of encountering bugs after a lengthy download process, is another significant reason why I am not planning to play it.

I will fix the bugs when people encounter them I already fixed a bunch of bugs and wrote couple tools but the codebase is a mess.
For example he has media paths like these I need to change the paths these can cause errors. The owner also added an anti-cheat check after V60. Thats also why I cant just most of the V60 work because a lot of the code was changed

1738014825338.png

He also embedded images and media in the gamefile itself. The qsp was like close to 100mb because of that I extracted those to the image file.

The tools that already have been developed for qsp games don't work very well for this. I need to write my own that is currently the most time consuming part.

The players wont need to redownload the whole game again, they just need to replace the qsp file with mine but before I publish it I will release a github repo with all the translation work that needs to be done as I wrote before I won't sacrifice most of my free time to translate it so on my own the progress will be very slow.
