Sorry about my inactivity. To make up for it, I made a quick game icon exclusively for the translated version. I hope you all like it!

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Quick note: all PSP games show up on menus as a 144x80 image, so that's why the icon's resolution is so small.

This looks great! I'll apply this to the next update and this should show up properly.

Note: I know this will be merged with my previous post, but that's fine...

Alright, time for a big update to the game ! I hope everyone's been doing well during the holidays.
Before you play the game, please read the notes below.

Download link: https://mega.nz/file/IlNDHKQR#PEgFsAYwcUenp8ssKmyv7KNKTfrV03C5LD28MQBN2RU

The instructions on how to apply the patch are available inside the .rar file.


A rough summary of What's New (more detailed version in the front page of this thread):
-Mami's Chapter is mostly complete, up to Day 20/21/30. There are multiple endings to this game, which will all be available next patch (there are at least 5 endings, some slightly similar to one another, but with different scenes).
Plus there are at least 17 hidden/visible Kyubey dialogues to be found in the game, essential to unlocking the other endings in the game... can you find them all?
-ALL the "Tips" Images are complete! You can see them all inside the Pictorial Book (I highly recommend it for a better experience with the game, especially the dungeons). They look rough and kinda scuffed but legible.
-Madoka's Chapter, Days 1 and 2 have been heavily revised and given a facelift. More of these "facelifts" will be done to give the first Chapter a proper presentation.
-A new loading screen and thumbnail picture is available now, replacing the old Tradukosoft logo. Tradukosoft is still credited in the first screen that loads up.
-A couple fixes to dungeon dialogue, in-game shops, etc. More to come later.


:!:BUGS IN THE GAME(SO FAR):!:

-Problem: In your fight with Charlotte (the Candy Witch), your UI will display disappear. You won't be able to see your HP, MP, which Magical Girl you have out in battle, etc.
Solution: Press Start, go to System > Suspend > Yes. Once you're at the Title Screen, go to Continue > Load Suspend Data > Yes. Your UI should now load up properly.

-Problem: In Day 10, you'll battle against Izabel (the Artist Witch). Your game has a VERY HIGH CHANCE OF CRASHING. It doesn't help that the barrier is already challenging.
-Solution: You'll have to, like the solution above, Suspend and reenter the game. You can also save/load save states, but those may not be as reliable as the former.

-Problem: The game softlocks(perpetually loading the next sequence in the game) when you die to the second Witch.
-Solution: NO KNOWN SOLUTION AS OF NOW. This problem is persistent in both English patched and original Japanese versions of the game. I suspect this to be an emulation problem. What makes this a bigger problem is that the next sequence is supposed to reveal one of the endings of the game... sigh. *Will update when solution found*



That's it, folks. I'm not sure when I can complete Mami's Chapter with all endings available, but I hope within the next month or so for that to happen. Special thanks to CoyoteMao, Nouka, and matzilla30 for their contribution to the project. Many thanks to everyone here as well. As always, all forms of feedback, comments, discussion about the game, etc. is welcome.

Amazing work once again Carlitos! What a wonderful gift before the end of the year, I am sure it wasn't easy to pull off.
I can't wait to try it out! (and I will see if I can help with those new bugs too)

Thank you for updating this project, it must be a gigantic task, I can't even imagine it haha, Merry Christmas and keep it up bro! :D

Thank you, I do appreciate it a lot. It hasn't been all that easy, with a lot of challenges both in and out of the translation project. Here's hoping for many more time to dedicate to this game :)

Is there supposed to be music during the first dungeon?

Thanks for voting me your favorite person of the year... and yes, there should be music lol. Every dungeon has music.

Hello, sorry if I don't know what I'm talking about, but I downloaded the latest patch and I think I got an extremely bad virus from it. I noticed after I downloaded it that my CPU started getting extremely hot after my computer turns on, then it cools down to the normal temp after a few minutes. I reset it after I noticed that, and now my audio won't work at all. It says 'No output device is installed' even though there is, and I've tried reinstalling and updating the drivers but it won't work. It says the drivers failed to load or something. Has anybody else noticed these problems? It could be caused by something else, although this patch is the only thing I downloaded and this stuff happened afterwards.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

By the way I'm talking specifically about that WDSG program or whatever it is called. I believe that it was that program that probably started it. Sorry if this was stupid I was just wondering if anybody else was experiencing this.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Also if you're wondering I did virus scans from Norton & Makwarebytes and nothing came up, but I believe if this virus infected my audio drivers it is probably deep within my PC and undetectable.

Hey HelloJellobruno, sorry to hear you had problems with your computer. I have been using WDSG with no issue so I don't think its the reason your CPU is overheating. It's just a tool to extract or modify PSP games files.

Have you tried looking at your Task Manager when the CPU is getting hot, to see if a process is using all your CPU? If you are using a Laptop does this still happen on a cold and flat surface? And for your sound did you check which devices are running in Sound/Volume control options? Just throwing some ideas.
You can send me a PM if you need more help.

Edit: It could possibly have been a capricious Windows 10 update if this is the OS you have. I also recommend an adblocker like Ublock Origin if you don't have one. Glad to hear your PC is working now!

Hi again. I want to start off by apologizing for my post because it was pretty stupid. First of all, if he purposefully put a virus in the download he probably would have deleted my post, and second I'm just really sorry for accusing the patch of causing it, I just can't recall doing anything else that would have caused it, so it would be the most obvious culprit, but that doesn't mean it is. I don't think I clicked on any weird links, and I'm pretty sure this is the only thing I downloaded that wasn't from a trusted source, but I have a file with everything from my previous computer that I transferred to this one, so maybe that caused it, although the symptoms on this computer were much more aggressive for some reason if that's the case, and I started noticing the symptoms after I executed the WDSG thing, but it could also be that I just didn't notice them before obviously. I guess they were more aggressive because I reset my computer? My old computer that I had all of this stuff on is pretty slow, but it is also a few years old too, and I don't think it displays other symptoms which is a little weird to me. Anyways, I can't look at the task manager or anything like that because my computer is stuck in a blue screen of death loop, and I'm pretty sure the type of virus I had was probably a rootkit or some trojan like that. I'm doing something that might fix it though. I'm sorry to bother you all. Also thanks Nouka for trying to help me :)

Hi HelloJellobruno, I'm sorry to hear about the issues that you're going through. I assure you that the patch is 100% safe and free from malicious code and/or programs. I'm surprised Malwarebytes and Norton didn't pick up on anything, but I hope you can find the culprit to this. It's possible to run into pop-ups while trying to download from any ROM sites or the like, with the intent of installing malicious programs under the guise of it being safe, so there's that possibility.
Anywho, I hope you get the chance to try out the patch whenever your issue(s) are resolved. :)

It's understandable, no harm done.
Yes, the spells you buy in the shop are only for the Mystery Barriers. They don't carry over to the main Chapters of the game.

Hi!!! I just wanna say thanks a lot for working on this! I am very excited for the translation of the game, I even thought of uploading the game in my youtube channel. I'll mention you there bc i think it's a really hard work and it's not payed off enough.

I have to admit at first i was interested in PMMM The Battle Pentagram, but i didn't find it translated at all anywhere. Then I discovered your proyect, and even if i wasn't that conviced about the battle system i discovered the game is totally worth it and very interesting thanks to the translation. I hope you finish soon Mami's timeline, I really would like to play it too, but i prefer waiting first. Once again, thank you! n.n

I want to ask, does this translated game Puella Magi Madoka Magica Portable work on the adrenaline psp emulator on psvita,
Thank you.
Funny that you ask that, because I just got my first ever PS Vita and installed Adrenaline 6.61 on it just a few weeks ago, on Firmware 3.60.
Anyways, the game seems to run just perfectly fine. It saves and the "Suspend" function works just fine. The only issue I found was that selecting the "Data Install" option freezes the game and makes Adrenaline unusable until you restart your PS Vita. I highly recommend you avoid the Data Install option. It isn't that necessary for use, anyways.
