So it is not custom firmware then? if the version is 6.61 without any letters then it means it is official firmware, if that's so you need to get custom firmware...

Just a short announcement that I decided not to release an update patch for Storm Lover Kai. Only minor mistakes were reported so far and it's a bit confusing to release many versions of patches. So, the current patch will be final and I'll list the mistakes in the Known Issues on my Google site. My apology to anyone who has waited for an updated patch.

By the way, this game is released for PS Vita (in Japanese, though), so if you want to practice Japanese, you can try it. (This game used quite basic everyday Japanese, so it's not difficult to read. You might enjoy the puns/jokes more when you read them in Japanese. (Especially Takumi's conversations. Some of them didn't sound as "ero" as the original when I translated them to English.)

P.S. I'll still be on hiatus from fan translation for a while after this. ^_^

@jjjewel you're great, really. Made such big and really nice localization all alone (yes, I know that xyz helped you with hacks, but they are not the thing which takes lot of dedication)... I would never be able to do it, really, even if I learned japanese... Do not have enough dedication, so I envy you quite a bit :)

Cheers :)

This game really needed a lot of hacking and most were too complicated for me. So when I said the patch was impossible without thexyz's help, I really meant it. :)
The preliminary test of editing and repacking the files already made the game crash, so I requested thexyz's help since the first step in hacking the game. And things kept getting more complicated as we progressed. One problem really led to another, so I constantly bugged thexyz for help throughout the whole project. ^_^

I edited the first post a bit. Actually, you don't need save files from Storm Lover to unlock special voices. (I got the info mixed up with another game. T_T) But you can transfer your save file from the original Storm Lover if you have already cleared some endings.

Currently I'm checking the scripts for mistakes (which I still found some here and there.) If there's no major problem, the patch should be released a little bit after the updated patch of Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side 3. ^_^

You can create a new thread and ask for people who might be interested to help. (Providing info what you can do for the project. Ex. If you can translate the game by yourself, or if you have to wait for other people to translate it for you.) You'll need a dedicate rom-hacker, with ASM hacking experience. (This game is not going to be easy to hack.)

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
