Sorry for the wait, folks. So, good news and bad news. Good news: The story sections are translated, I've confirmed that they're working, and I've fixed the typos that Word could detect. Bad news: I'm headed out of town for a couple of weeks, so it'll be awhile before I can fully clean things up and finish the encyclopedia entries. But until then, here's the story translation.

As for Monster Musume HYAKURAN, I'd totally forgotten that series even existed. It looks like the Megalink is long gone, though. If anyone can hook me up with a copy, I can look into doing that one when I get back. It's old and obscure enough that I suspect it'll be hard to find.

No worries, we are just thankful for your work.

This is where I got it from idk where else to get it from so here you go, just wait and it should take 10 mins to download, hope this helps! The RJ172013 is the product name on dlsite I got this from the hentaisharing website, in case anyone was curious.

Well, it took me awhile, but I've translated and proofread all of the H-Scene stories in Volume 1. I attempted to modify the encyclopedia entries, but I couldn't figure out a way to change them without causing the game to crash. If anyone can figure out how to go about doing that, I'll translate those as well. Huge props to PrinceofCanada for the instructions.
Hey Buddy, I made this account to ask for some help. I extracted the files and replaced text files as stated in the read me. I bought this game from dlsite just for reference. I have attached an image of what I am seeing and messaging you in the hopes of maybe you can address what I did wrong? Also, I did try out the system file and I did get it to work.

1. download the Japanese language pack, it should get rid/fix the giberish
2.open file named "03.txt" and get rid of any line that has "cutin_noprint" in it. Thats how i fixed mine.

Unfortunately, that still doesn't work for me. I did find one way as a workaround.
I changed text 2 with define english. This is the base file from the game I edited. I then copied and pasted text 11 in the base game and overwrote the original file. I installed the system patch and everything seems to be in english now except when you are picking the monsters.

Awesome! I forgot how much stuff was in that game. And it looks like it uses the same engine as this one too. I'll start in on it once I get back (and finish the encyclopedia stuff for this one).

Alright, sorry to bother you again, Mhg87, but that download link you provided for the second volume with encyclopedia finished from anonfiles does not work. I have tried to download from multiple browsers and it simply says, "This site can't be reached." Is there anyway you can reupload that directly from this website? I know in the previous message you said it wouldn't do it, but maybe it will work now?

Weird. Yeah, clicking it just loads an empty page now for some reason. Anyway, it looks like I can attach things again. So here's the second part.

I'm working on finishing up the encyclopedia entries for 3 still, and I'm starting to get into that other Torotoro Monstergirl game as well. Holy HELL is that one long.

Okay, here are the encyclopedia entries and the typo-fixes for Volume 3 (and there were an embarrassing number, I have to admit).

Still working at the other Torotoro game, but it's going to take a while. It features WAY more text and branching paths than these games, and it has fun little coding hurdles that this one doesn't (for instance, you have to insert a space between a character's name and the ending quotation mark or the last letter will be cut off).

thanks for all your work! Will you leave us a link and message on this thread when you've gotten further in that other game?

Any progress on the translation for the other game?

Yeah, I've made a lot of progress. Unlike Encyclopedia of Tentacles, this one's a much more straight-forward visual novel. It's got branching paths, long introductory narrative sections, and the whole works. On top of that, about half of this game's total content is a parody of Resident Evil 2 (yes, really). There are about six or seven different monsters total, and all of them have a branching Resist/Surrender path. The RE2 parts alone are probably equivalent to an entire Encyclopedia of Tentacles game in terms of length.

My plan right now is to finish up the RE2 parody section and post what I've done so far, since it's taking so long. There are still several unrelated story sections that will have to come after that.

Just wanted to say, thanks so much for getting this done. I tried, like, years ago now to get a translation working for this and the text issues (basically caused by my lack of understanding of the engine) were so demoralizing that I basically gave up, so it's really heartening to see that you guys managed to figure it out in the end :)

Is there any way to get this game running as an apk on android or on an emulator, so far joi play doesn't support it from what ive seen
