Spoiler for Question: Early Episode 5:

The unknown drug Purupurupikopuyo... what is this supposed to reference?

Thought I'd say (at this late date) that we're not really ignoring the "XP Compatibility" solution - I'm just really excited if there's a possible way to get onscripter in Windows Vista/7 to work out-of-the-box on Japanese filenames even without Japanese locale.

Viesta

but I use vista and I never had any problems with the game..

even with this patch which chronotrig or Klash had said about copying the files - I didn't need to do that at all and the only problem I had was only when I tried to save the game at some point - but it just happened there and all went fine after that

[Dlanor A. Knox]

YESSS!!! I can finally save!! *sparkles*
I deleted the patch and then redownloaded it and now its all OK *cries&thumb up*

I have Windows 7 (Home Premium)and it works perfectly with using Microsoft AppLocale, had no problem saving, no gliches no nothing and I've finished it.
So there is no need for XP mode, or keeping it in japanese locale.

Or just set it in JP locale, there is practically nothing to lose. I have used JP locale since 06 and haven't had to switch back yet o.0. (Of course, back then, it was XP, atm its 7)

Not sure if this was mentioned yet or not but:

Spoiler for Reference in EP5:

During the Tea Party, Bern and Lambda are talking about the novel Night on the Galaxy Express but I think it's actually translated to Night on the Galactic Railroad. Or that's how I've seen it translated in other places on the internet.

[zorahk]

That's right, and if so a huge mistake considering it's one of the most famous Japanese short novels ever written in the history of the universe.

New ONScripter, if anyone wants to try it out on Umineko: http://onscripter.denpa.mobi/?p=128

Happy New Year,
Uncle Mion

[Forsaken_Infinity]

Hey guys, can anyone of you give me the agth hook code for onscripter-en? I would like to copy those red and blue truths off the game -_-

Also, Happy New Year!

[Dormeur]

A happy new year.

Spoiler for EP5:

Bernkastel referred to the manga/anime "Ginga tetsudou 999", known as Galaxy Express 999.
Original title of the novel Night on the Galactic Railroad is "Ginga tetsudou no yoru".
There are same two words "Ginga tetsudou" ( literally means "galactic railroad").
In other words, There is no difference in their original titles like Express or Railroad.
That's why Bernkastel added "The one that isn't 'Night on the-'".
For Both translators and English readers they are hard lines, I guess...

I don't know if this is the correct place to put this but... I have a question about EP 5:

Spoiler for Episode 5:

Why does Dlanor speaks using caps? Is she talking using "Engrish" or is she shouting?

It's her speech pattern. She always ends her sentences in katakana, normally desu, which is used to put emphasis on a word. So it was translated into caps. The witch names (ANGE, MARIA) are also written in katakana, hence why they're capital. She's not shouting though.

[SPC1st]

I think there's still some problem with saves and the Mac version. It was working fine until I decided to restart my computer, and when I loaded it up again my saves were gone. Where exactly are the saves being stored anyhow?

[Sonozaki Futagotachi]

Did you close Umineko before restarting your computer?

I finally have the episode 6 disc, but the Ep5 patch doesn't work for Episode 6. Do you have plans to make the patch from Ep5 work for the disc with Ep6 too, or do we have to wait for that until you translated Episode 6?

They said that they were going to make a patch compatible with EP6 as soon as they can.

By the way, has anyone who pre-ordered EP6 from HimeyaShop received an e-mail to confirm that it has shipped? Because I still haven't received anything.
