Announcement!
Before anything, here is a special point we took recently: considering our satisfying and hard working manpower here and there (be it translators, encoders etc), we decided to change slightly the release scheldule:
Instead of letting everyone down until the full patch is done, we decided to change it altogether and mimic the Onikakushi-hen type of release: Chapter by chapter, or batch by batch of chapters each time.
This has been decided like this, as the process is much longer than expected and our wish to polish and serve a translation patch as neat as possible, hence much more retranslation and editing.
that said...
Witch Hunt is proud to announce that the first patch for Umineko no Naku Koro ni is available!
The first patch covers Chapter
00 to
02 of
Episode 1, Legend of the Golden Witch. You can get it with these links (several mirrors):
[WH] Umineko 1 V0.1 15.3MB (rar file)

Please be sure to check the readme files as some specific points must be taken in account for the full use of the patch.
Also, remember this patch only works with
Episode 2 (game). It does
NOT work with episode 1.
Please remember that
Episode 1 is INCLUDED in Episode 2 (just how it was for Higurashi), hence we are not skipping any episode at all. But the patch can only work with the second game, translation wise, it is about the first episode.
Please don't hesitate to leave your feedbacks, comments, troubleshoots and so forth here!
We will soon provide a subbed version of the Opening movie of the game. Stay tuned!
