Outpost Omega J

@littleshogun

Um, for the title Gin'iro Haruka, did you mean to post "Mizuha's route 68/139 script files translated"? Last week, you posted "Mizuha's route 48/141 script files translated".

Requesting "Doukyuusei Remake": https://vndb.org/v34136

You should add another emoji to the "classic" section. It should be (substituting ";" for ":" so as not to trigger anything by accident) ;classic_meh; and produce Hawkins' avatar.

The vndb.org link you provided for the VN "The Modest Handmaid's Sex Work ~I will be your partner in place of the young mistress~" does not lead to a vndb entry for that title.

I'm reasonably certain this is the link you actually wanted: https://vndb.org/v25596

You dropped the "2" out of the link you provided.

I wonder what literal word for word translation of this scene from the original Japanese would be and if the author/translator (depending on who is at fault for this line) realized the contradiction in what they said:

The screen shot enclosed in the spoiler box DOES TECHNICALLY contain profanity, so reader beware, but it is really minor and appropriate to the overall scene. Besides, if you are truly offended by this line, you shouldn't be reading 18+ rated VNs anyways.

Now that I look at the picture again there might be one more character from Riddle Joker making an appearance. Sitting across the table from Mibu Chisaki might be Arihara Nanami but the picture is even less clear than for Mibu.

Another heroine from Riddle Joker making a sneak appearance in Cafe Stella. This time it's the minor heroine Mibu Chisaki. Sitting in the back of the cafe, facing away from the camera, second character from the right edge of the screen. She's wearing a hat and most of her is covered by the section divider between tables, so she isn't obvious. I admit, I almost missed her, and this is a very common background image in the VN.

One picture via a google search that can be matched against her vndb.org profile page and the picture above.

In the above picture, there is also a purple haired girl with a facing the camera with teal colored eyes wearing a black shirt with what I THINK is called a pink camisole over it (I'm not an expert of women's fashion. If I just put my foot in it and offended a lot of women, my apologies) and holding what might be a smart phone or day planner. She looks familiar but I can't place her. Does anybody recognize her as a character from another VN or is she just a random NPC? She's not Ise Kotori, which would make sense given Mitsukasa Ayase's presence, but she has the wrong eye color to be her.

Edit April 10th 2022, 1:14 AM: Sitting directly across from Mitsukasa Ayase is a purple haired person with their back to us, however, purple hair is ALL I can tell from that picture. The long hair suggests female but that's no guarantee. It would, however, make sense for that to be Ise Kotori.

Another runaway heroine from Riddle Joker sneaking into Cafe Stella. This time it's Mitsukasa Ayase. The pink haired girl in the denim jacket maybe a fourth the of the way in from the right edge and centered vertically.

Here's a picture of her via a google search to confirm her identity. Not her best picture, but it shows the out fit and you can match her again her vndb.org entry.

Two more characters sneaking into Riddle Joker. This time we have Maniwa Roka on the left, also from Senren * Banka and Shiiba Tsumugi on the right from Sabbat of the Witch, though I couldn't find any decent reference pictures of either of them in those outfits to confirm it.

Couldn't find any pictures to of them in those out fits to confirm their identity.

In Riddle Joker, the major heroine Tomotake Yoshino from Senren * Banka makes an appearance as a faceless background character in one of the background images, again in a train station. I guess that's how they're traveling about from one VN to another. The silver haired girl with the yellow shirt and purple skirt more or less right in the middle of the picture.

Here's a picture of her from Senren * Banka take from VN's Nekonyan Soft web page.

In Cafe Stella, the minor side character Kariya Wakana from Sabbat of the Witch makes an appearance as a faceless background character in one of the background images used for the train station. She's on the hard right edge of the screen.

Here's a picture of her from Sabbat of the Witch via a google search.

So I've noticed that characters from Yuzu Soft VNs make a discreet appearances in other Yuzu Soft VNs . I figured I'd upload the evidence here for kicks and giggles.

Edit: April 6th 2022, 1:15 AM EST

Most of these pictures so far are from Cafe Stella since that's what I'm reading right now, but I remembered a few other instances from other VNs and dug them up.

Finally got it to cooperate. Manually point the V1.060 updater to

<DRIVE LETTER>:\...\WarsAndRoses\WarsAndRosesV1.050

where the "WarsAndRoses" folder is the top most folder layer that came out of the .rar archives. It doesn't seem to be able to find it on it's own even if you copy and paste the updater to that location.

I'm assuming that the V1.070 updater will work the same. (Yeah, I know, by making that assumption, I just shot my self in the foot. It won't work the same.)

I just got done downloading and extracting Wars and Roses:

The .rar archives contain three folders, "WarsAndRosesV1.050", "UpdateV1.060", and "UpdateV1.070". The V1.060 contains an updater, but when i run it, it can't automatically find whatever it's looking for to know where to apply the update files, and it's not given me and hints on where to point it. I've tried copying and pasting it into several likely places in the "WarsAndRosesV1.050" folder but it still hasn't found what it's looking for. Does anybody know where I need to copy and paste it to, or where to point it to manually?

Just a suggestion, perhaps you should add Gin'iro Haruka under the "New Projects This Week" section since, while it's technically not "new", it is returning after a very extended absences that it might as well be new.

Does anybody know off the top of their head (without having to dig through god knows how many weeks and months of old threads) just how long Gin'iro Haruka HAS been a dead project?

Did the translator come back? I thought this was a dead project.

You should check jast store, they carry a lot of these old games and often put them on sales every few months

pretty soldier war for example https://jastusa.com/games/gc029/pretty-soldier-wars-a.d.-2048 

Or you could act like the veteran member of this site, which you apparently aren't, and do a quick search by title to come up with the link to download it here for free BEFORE you suggest he spend money.

https://erogegames.com/downloads/extras/pretty-soldier-wars-ad-2048-r165/

The only reason I didn't do that already was because all three of those titles are older posts from the original forum style that didn't translate well to the new forum style and doesn't include any of the art work. I defaulted to the vndb.org links because they included screenshots that would be helpful in verifying which game he was looking for.

Hey all,

I'm looking for an older game (at least 10 years old now) that I can't remember the name of.
It was a Tactical RPG that had a sci-fi theme.
The playable characters are all female, with spacey combat suits and guns. The enemies are aliens.
If memory serves, the first battle gives you a small number of characters to command, and the battleground may be some kind of hospital or something?
It may also be one of those "lose and see hentai" type things, where the characters are tentacle-raped upon defeat.
The closest thing I can find so far has been Piece of Wonder, but it's for sure not that.

If anyone has a clue about this one, please let me know. Thanks.

I don't recall playing anything that fits that description myself, but I do recall seeing these titles that might be it.

Pretty Soldier Wars AD 2048: https://vndb.org/v127

Critical Point: https://vndb.org/v145

This one probably isn't what you are looking for as I have played it and it doesn't have any tactical game play, but I'm including just in case.

Soul Link: https://vndb.org/v617

On the page for "Overly Qualified Ms. Mary",

You've got the three part download option listed under the "Download" Tab and the non-free 1.3GB single file option listed under the "Free Download" tab.

*Bump*

Sorry, I'm indulging my obsessive compulsive tendencies by putting these forum threads back in chronological order before littleshogun posts his next Status update thread.

Just throwing this out there, I'm looking forward to the VN "Hello Lady".

vndb.org: https://vndb.org/v13631

Neko Nyan Soft blog update: https://nekonyansoft.com/blog/hello-lady-important-information

The four of us who voted where wrong! Neko Nyan Soft updated their home page on January 20, 2022.

However, nobody has any bragging rights over us four since nobody else voted "yes". Just look at all the fun you missed out on.

I don't have the ability to close the poll before it's scheduled close on March 28th, or if I do, I don't know it. As of when I wrote this, there where only four votes, me, Henta20, Exsilon, and LanTheifHUN. I will not be recognizing any additional votes cast after this point.

I figured this one out. This is one of the few titles that specifically NEED your region settings set to English and not Japanese. I usually leave my computer set to Japanese for convenience since it rarely negatively effects anything I do. Not so this time. I added a comment on the VN's download page that gives an in depth explanation of my findings for anyone who cares.

On a side note: Fresh meet for my poll! DragonBall89, go vote in the forum poll I set up here!
