WIP of what a script might look like. Thoughts?

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
It looks good, but it wouldn't be possible to autoinsert the English names, would it?

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
that's what I was suggesting, but he says it's too much work. (I don't think it is)

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
Provided that it doesn't appear in the main text, couldn't we replace |雪菜| with |雪菜|Setsuna etc.?

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
Well, I still have to look over how feasible it really is, so I need some time to look into it.
Also in the current script chart WIP, the two side digital novels are currently not included. Let's just say that, because they've already been translated, I didn't really feel a need to add them in here?

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
Progress update: we have completely deciphered the format and our parser can parse all the scripts properly with no errors or warnings now. There's still a ton of functions that we have no idea what they do, but they should not affect translation. The next step now is writing a tool to go from the output of the parser to the wiki format, and another tool to go the other direction, and then once that's all working we can start putting it on BT.

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
Mmm, I'm guessing that [R空港:ここ] is the furigana styling?

That'd be correct. I still need to look into some aspects of how this is generated before I can guarantee at least the wikitext portion is safe.

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
Teaser:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4910378/WA2/wa2-test.avi
We still have a bit to do before we make it public on BT. We're aiming for releasing it in 3 or 4 days though. Also, the font looks ugly (and doesn't support English furigana) so we need to find some new font, and after that new font is found we can work on automatic text wrapping.
Also, speaker names will be auto-generated.
After the translation projects goes public we will then focus on making an all-ages patch. It seems to us that this doesn't require much more work, but there's still some things that need to be figured out. However, we 100% believe it is not only possible but doable.
Cheers

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
I suppose the system menu and stuff can be changed later?
Is the aspect ratio always kept the same for WA2? I don't think I've ever encountered a VN that doesn't keep the aspect ratio, but just checking.
Also, is it possible to translate the name of the soundtrack playing? (It shows in the bottom left of the log.)
And of course, good job, and thanks for the work!

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
Just to make sure, while you guys are working on making an all ages patch possible, there will still be a regular 18+ patch right?

Yes there will be a regular 18+ patch.
As for aspect ratio, I couldn't see an option to change it so I'd expect it keeps it.

Re: WHITE ALBUM2 (visual novel)
Ok, menu translation and also soundtrack name translation (which is actually part of the menu) is really simple
Random test: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4910378/WA2/titlemod.png (ignore that it says closing chapter, doesn't matter)
However, we should probably get some graphics artist who is willing to do this. Making it look pretty is a bit too advanced for my photoshop skills
