A: Essentially, to get the English script as close to the original Japanese script as possible, while also keeping in mind technical limitations and whatever scripting we have available to us. Also, trying to keep the script in-spec with whatever walkthroughs/hint guides there are out there, unless an error is really over the top. We'd at least like a Re;Birth1 quality level to these games scripts.A: No. In fact, the original script seen in Compile Heart's Japanese release is highly entertaining.A: If it gets in the way of the original humor from the Japanese release, and character personalities, it's gotta go. You can always disable this patch if the changes are traumatic.A: Yes.A: Back in 2015 or so, we suggested the following instructions: "We use a Neptools DLL to hook into the game code, normally. One way to to get this to work in WINE is to run winecfg, select the Libraries tab, writeunder New override for library, click Add, make sure it says. Or, you can just download the latest full version of Neptools, as that contains an EXE launcher."Those instructions may still work depending on the use case, however since then WINE has matured somewhat, and there are also several methods that allow for a self-contained WINE setup. Aside fromand more recently, Steam has also implementedas a compatibility tool. Given that this mod's guide is hosted on Steam, I would address the Proton situation, and suggest if nothing else works that you should try and launch the game through the Neptools EXE method if DLL hooking doesn't work. I will be testing the patch and Neptools in Linux via Proton sometime during 2020.A: About a month's prep, plus another month actually translating. And a few weeks beforehand bouncing around the prospects. So somewhere between 2 to 3 months (no Histy jokes!). Plus all the time maintaining it afterwards...pretty much everyone who's listed as an author here worked on it, plus a couple other people who wanted to remain uncredited.A: It was pretty bad. Neptune and Ram's...creative reinterpretations have been fairly well documented by the Neptunia community, but they are by no means the only characters who got knifed by the official translation. Off the top of my head, IF, Compa, Linda, CFW Magic, Nepgear, Rom, Blanc, even Kei of all people had at least one line that was mangled beyond recognition.Given that's pretty much half the speaking cast, that's a real problem.A: Actually we did, it's finished and you can go download it now if you want.A: Give us a heads up about it, it might not get fixed if we don't know about it.
