Let's just say it's basically in indefinite production hell. I have a very demanding job, I am distracted by a thousand other things, I can write in only fits and starts with the time that I do have, and the project is extremely overambitious.

Soooo... yeah, God only knows. The revision is more measured and probably will work if I ever get the time and inclination to start knocking out some parts of it. Every so often I get a scene out or mull some segment over in my head, but as of right now there's been no in-engine progress (and won't be until I have a full script).

EDIT: Oh actually I have an entire part potentially ready to release, but it'll take scripting and stuff first.

Hey for all those who care about Total Seacat Island here, Just letting you know that the project is not dead and It will never be. EP4 is done (it just needs editing and grammar fixing , But My teammate is talking too long) and I am currently writing and coding EP5. ^^

Renall · 2012-12-19, 19:19

Right well, I think this has gotten about as much polishing as I care to solicit for it (for now).

Redaction of the Golden Witch - Part 1

Set between the events of End and Dawn, Battler ponders the nature of his victory and the tasks ahead while Virgilia provides distraction - and inspiration - in the form of an anomalous stolen Fragment that neither ought to have been allowed to see.

Set also in a time far beyond, an editor identifying only by the pseudonym "Walter Absalom" presents a long-discredited Forgery which he argues contains not the truth of October 1986, but of the deaths of several young Witch Hunters who made a pilgrimage to Rokkenjima in the summer of 1996.

Battler and Absalom seek different truths within the same tale, speaking to things neither could possibly know about the world of the other. But each arrives at the same uncomfortable question: What does it mean that Beatrice is seemingly absent from this story?

For the moment, the story begins here, in a six part playlist.

Will look into a normal engine release when I have more time on the technical end to fix various things. But that'll probably be when other parts are finished. Speaking of other parts, work is definitely still continuing:

So the time has finally arrived upon us, eh?

A question before I start though, would you say this part is enough to theorize on answers? I am going to anyway, but just saying.

I suppose the counter-question would be, could you theorize on answers after the first half of October 4th in Legend? Because that's roughly the period it covers. There might be some things to consider but obviously there'd be a lot of missing information. And speculation as to the other side would be largely impossible since it doesn't contain those bits yet.

There's programs that can rip them from the game files, if you have copies. That's how I do it. Basically you use something to open arc.nsa and the backgrounds are in there in a folder (as are the portraits, etc.). I can't say what programs though, it's been a while. Make sure if you do rip that you rip both ep4 and ep8, as there are some backgrounds, effects, and so forth that do not appear in Chiru.

http://nscripter.insani.org/sdk.html

Download NSAOut and run it in the game directory as an admin. It'll create a folder called "arc" containing every background and sprite.

UmiLion · 2013-01-03, 05:21

SeagullCrazy, do I put it in the EP 8 folder? Also, does it include the background only sprites? Without the sprites on the bg's?

Yep, right inside the Umineko8 folder. It contains all images in the game. The backgrounds and sprites are separate.

Where is the tea party and the chapel of the witches where Erika gets married?!

They are in the /efe/ folder. Not the one in the backgrounds folder. There's another one one directory up. Or maybe it's in the backgrounds one. Either way, check both folders marked /efe/.

The Tea Party area is called different_space_ and should be in the ep4 files.
The Chapel is called wclo_ and wsan_ and is in the ep8 files.
The Love Duel room from ep6 is zf_ and is in the ep8 files.
The Theater from ep7 is the_ and is in the ep8 files.

If you have more specific questions either of us could probably help you in private or in the thread.

GabrieliosP · 2013-01-03, 20:43

I was brainstorming a while ago, thinking of ways of connecting the various When They Cry series in a fanfiction I might write after I finish the projects I'm working on (I swear I'm working on them! It's just that I sometimes forget to update my development blog!).

I was thinking on the fact that Bernkastel is based on Furude Rika and Lambdadelta on Takano Miyo and suddenly something flashed in my head:

- Keiichi, the Magician of Words (Maebara Keiichi's 'title' in the Club)
- *******, the Endless Sorcerer (dunno if spoilers are allowed on this thread, but I'm not being explicit to be on the safe side.)

"Magician" as in "Magician of Words" and "Sorcerer" as in "Endless Sorcerer" are the exact same word in japanese.

This small 'epiphany' is giving me so many ideas to use...

UmiLion · 2013-01-03, 22:02

TY FOR ALL YOU HELP! What's better to make with? NScripter or Ren'py? Because NScripter is Japanese and I'm from America. There are no NScripter turtorials anyway. If there is can someone send me, or some instructions.

GabrieliosP · 2013-01-03, 22:13

There's ONScripter, the english version of NScripter and also ONScripter tutorials that can be found in the first posts of this thread.

UmiLion · 2013-01-03, 22:15

ONscrripter has english codes right?

GabrieliosP · 2013-01-03, 22:37

Correct. It's actually very simple to use once you get the hang of it.
