^ A game long ahead of its time, and underrated. Still one of my favorites. If you ever play it again (or anyone) - play as a batshit Malkavien, fun times await heh.

It's still active, just locked to avoid needless chatter.

It actually looks pretty interesting. It's too bad I've boycotted indie devs - been burnt by funding too many indie VNs that turned out to "look good in concept, lackluster in reality". It's abit frustrating to drop 30 - 50$ and find out a story took about a week to write (or so it comes across to the reader, heh).

Uncensored Version of Sunrider Academy Beta Now on Sale at Denpasoft | Sunrider Just for any not keeping track - if you're not a fan of Prefundia (cuase i'm not ) - they put the uncensored version back for sale over at Denpasoft. Keep in mind it's a "beta" VN... which i don't think is the best or smartest method to deliver a VN in...but oh well~ Still, figure I'd point you to an alt. method for any interested.

^^^Reminds me of Valkyrie Profile's Lenneth. Morning people! (at least where I live ) Props to Aynil for finding/sharing this DJ, great music

Funny of you to mention Saya no Uta, i actually just started reading it heh. I'm really impressed so far tbh. I figured with them coming out with the second one at some point it's a good chance to try as any. Hrm, I never did get around to trying Umineko - I started at one point, but work ate up too much time to really absorb it. First time hearing about Higanbana though, I'll have to add it to my vndb wishlist.

Da Capo 1 and 2 are nice options if your looking mainly for humor and hscenes - it's abit lowbrow, and there are some areas of drama, but I got some good laughs out of them. Besides those - the above options are also good ideas.

^^^ That one was pretty good.

I really need to break my self-imposed rule of "no short VNs" (2 -10 hours), I'm probably missing out on some good stories - the length just bums me out though.

Fixed, as no one clicked on the link I initially posted (still appriciette the imput, but it was off target heh)

I must know if that's just a single panel, or a actual full volume - and if so - where to find it. The comedic potential of this is huge. :3

Time will tell I soppose, not like it hurts to stay openminded (a truth for life in general). A personal gripe I have with the whole business is how critical certain people are/were of TLs like FSN in years past, yet cannot back up their critiques with works of their own. He's always been fairly vocal about how "bad" Mirror Moons' TL was - I couldn't honestly say if it's justified or not, barely knowing english let alone japanese myself - but without showing how it can be "better", just makes it seems like alot of hot air. Eitherway, not like fan TL groups get paid for their efforts - at least not until Sekai absorbs everyone with talent into itself (which I'm starting to think is the cause of "missing" team members throughout the VN scene). Which is not nessacarily a bad thing, as SP seems to be getting shit done that not even JAST or MG have been able to do so far.

Noticed a troubling (though not at all surprising) change at VNDB for Mahoutsukai no Yoru (https://vndb.org/v777) - namely, the removal of Commie's TBA english version.

Another slow week huh? At least there is steady progress on alot of fronts. I suspect it will be pretty quiet until spring/summer, when most projects will have more time (basing that on the idea most are still in some form of higher education). There are exceptions like that Last Resort guy, but it's generally pretty hard to focus on "extra" stuff during university/college.

Yeah who cares about the 3 new routes when the sex scenes are obviously the best part! Secret spoiler:

Anyone have a pasing knowledge on how to install them? Got my hands on a large chunk of the uppervolta batches, but I can only figure out the basic install stuff (the .vacs that can be dropped right into the plugins dir), and any basic mesh alterations (extract model.vac etc, copy in the editted mesh, recompress the folder as the new .vac). Basically having troubles with folders that contain .pngs and/or .neis - not quite sure where I should put them or how to package them~ Thanks for any help, if anyone knows. EDIT: Did some digging, and came across some decent instructions, got things working perfectly: ================================================== recommended to install the latest version of the game HOW TO INSTALL PLUGINS: put the .vac file into your Plugin folder in the CM3D root folder (\KISS\カスタムメイド3D\Plugin) put the .cus file into your Preset folder in the CM3D root folder (\KISS\カスタムメイド3D\Preset) HOW TO INSTALL TEXTURES. get CM3D extractor, drag Texture.vac on the extractor.exe receive "texture" folder "Texture.vac" copy the textures from the packs and paste them at the texture folder "Texture.vac". some textures mods can replace standart textures! make backups please! now drop texture folder on the extractor.exe receive Texture.vac your previous Texture.vac is saved as Texture.vac.old if mod have .vac files just copy&paste the "*.vac" files from the texture packs into Plugins HOW TO INSTALL NEW SCRIPTS (*.ks files) . get CM3D extractor, drag Script.vac on the extractor.exe receive "Script" folder go into script folder, look for the right .ks, replace and done drop script folder on the extractor.exe receive Script.vac your previous Script.vac is saved as Script.vac.old HOW TO INSTALL MODELs or new Area (.anz files) get CM3D extractor, drag Model.vac on the extractor.exe receive "Model" folder go into model folder, look for the right .anz, replace and done drop model folder on the extractor.exe receive Model.vac your previous Model.vac is saved as Model.vac.old and please read jap.ReadMe for .anz ... in rare cases they can use Model_FP.vac, Model_SP.vac, Model_TP.vac and ather .vac in game folder. ==================================================
