I had the english patch files but deleted them. After watching Dark Net today, I felt like playing this.
Can you please upload the patch again, pleeeeeeease? I mean, the progress is taking ages, so might as well have something than nothing at all.
In terms of reuploading somewhere else, I think you can trust people, since I searched and nobody uploaded them before, not even on that iso site.

That version was for beta testing purposes only back when we were trying to figure out if hacking would create any bugs and what we should look out for, the files were inferior and before they were proofread and corrected and we had to take them down cause people on iso sites kept asking for a distribution of a 3DS file of the beta... The tool is almost ready and once it's finished we'll be able to release the first official partial patch but in the meantime there's the ETC1 and ETC1A texture compression issue we have to solve and while our hacking team is doing their best we'd like new people who are relevant to join out team and perhaps help with this problem...

Well, guess I'll lose the hype again and come back to the thread next year, then.
I should learn japanese, really, but then I start thinking I could instead learn something that would get me a job, like Java programming... decisions... decisions...

Actually, don't quote me on this (this came from a friend of mine who's fluent in the language but has no particular interest in translating games) but I hear this game in particular uses rather simple Japanese for the most part on account of largely being a basic conversational sim. It would probably only take one year of active study to be able to grasp most of it.

That should motivate me to stop being lazy... aha...

Hi Juumon, this project is unfortunately for the 2014 3DS version of the game but since you own a NDS you have the option to play the 2009 NDS LovePlus game that has been fully translated by jjjewel's team. Have fun and enjoy~!

Thanks to our hacking team: kiwiz (Kai), deaknaew, froid_san & Chulio our [NLPP TOOLS] have now been materialized!

Unfortunately they are still missing a few basic functions to be fully functioning, we decided to publish the multi-tools in their current state and ask for people with the right knowledge to take a look and see if they can commit & contribute the coding required for the missing functions:
LIST OF [KNOWN ISSUES] FOR [NLPP TOOLS]:
Converting a png to bclim:
No support for ETC (ETC1/ETC1A...) image compression,
files can not be converted back to bclim.
Repacking a package:
The ‘packer’ currently can not repack packages with smes files.

For further information, to provide test files for the multi-tools or If you'd like to participate in the project contact @Skype:LovePlusProject, thank you!

For anybody thinking of updating the character models in the future. Be warned that meshes such as the faces seem to be using morph targets, which means that it's being controlled/animated through a set of determined vertices. Each vertex has its own number; a specific order. If you change that, it may end up in some kind of nightmare fuel or just not working at all.

Good luck with this project!

How long do you think it will take to finish the translation? And thank you for doing this!! ^^

Sorry but we cannot set a time-frame, we have finished the work for the partial-patch a long time ago and it now all depends on whether and/or when the tools we've requested further help with will be finalized in order to be able to release this for public use.

[...]meshes such as the faces seem to be using morph targets[...]

Yeah, we're having a bit of an issue with making this work, we cannot currently test this with the new tool as it cannot yet handle smes files and the 3D model folders have these type of files but last time we tried this with another method when replacing any kind of facial texture it resulted into the texture not appearing at all:

Well, the picture isn't appearing, either. It just says <IMG> but I can hazard a guess to how it would look. Hmm...sorry. I am an artist. A 3d modeler; not a modder. I only know a little about programming. ^_^' Sorry. I'd love to be more useful, though.

Im not sure if this question has been asked before.
If I am playing the old love plus game on a ds emulator will it be possible to port that save file over to the new love plus+ game also on an emulator?
I have 3ds as well if it is required.
No

They're still working, but it's a niche project and sometimes life just happens. They've been consistently making gradual progress though so even if it takes a while this will probably be done eventually.
