Ring of Lust Translation Project (Updated 28/04/2013)

Introducing update patches to reduce download time.

Firstly, this is alpha as fuck. No, not alpha as in alpha male, but alpha as in not ready for release. This game might crash horribly, so play at your own risk.

Secondly, you need to set regional language to SIMPLIFIED Chinese.

Thirdly, this game is made using RPG maker XP, so you need the RTP for that. I am not sure if you need the Chinese RPG Maker XP RTP for it to work. So if it doesn't work, give me a heads up and I will modify my post.

A short note regarding this project

Screenshots coming soon.

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project

I am going to keep an (interested) eye on this project. Thank you for undertaking it.

Just a question : is setting the regional settings to simplified Chinese mandatory ? Will it be for the fully translated version ? I can set up a virtual box for that, but it sounds a bit overkill to me just for a single game.

Translating doesn't change the requirements for a game, localizing does.
If you play a game and it gets bought by a English company, they translate the language into English and localize the software for use on English based systems. But when it's a fan-translation, all they do is translate the language into English the software is still localized for it's original system.

In other words, if you needed to change your system pre-translation you'll still need to do so post-translation.

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project

Got it.

I didn't mean to sound ungrateful, just asking if there was a hope to see this requirement vanish with time (and completion of the translation).

It appears that it will remain, and I will just have to cope with it. It's still a worthy project to me, relevant to my interests.

Thank you for the clarification.

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project

Is there any RJ number to this? Screenshots or something?

No worries, you didn't sound ungrateful. Just my policy of instead of just telling someone "yes or no" I like to explain why the answer is so.

@KHTA

I wish more people had policies like yours. Thanks again.

@kR1pt0n1t3

The only threads I am aware of are on Hongfire, and most of the interesting ones have been deleted, at the request of the original author as far as I could tell.

@duck666

I downloaded all the archives, and after a quick inspection they seem legit to me. Only differences between original and newest version are in the map files (rxdata), which is to be expected. The exe doesn't ring any alarm either with my AV. Just not sure why the RGSS103J.dll file is nearly three times as big in size as the other games that I have and that use it, but that's not a cause on my side to suspect someone with 550+ posts to start uploading virus infected crap on this forum. YMMV, of course.

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project

hello i have a question is anyone getting a error when you press the heart in your magic menu? whenever i do it the game crashes and a message pops up saying Japanese graphic's/characters Japanese1 im thinking its a picture or a sound file anyway was wondering does anyone have the data folder for it and doesnt have a error messages when they press the heart magic?

The original game crashed a ton, also, print screen works, if you can't get fraps working.

yep that message is what im getting

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project

Ah, I remember this game. Never ended up beating it, but it was pretty decent game if I recall correctly. It was hard as fuck, too. Anyone wishing to seriously clearing it may want to consult a guide or some sort.

I wish you the best of luck in your translation efforts.

Did you decompress the game while in Simplified Chinese Unicode? The name of your game on the upper left corner on your screenshot is messed up. It should look like this.

The Hongfire thread was closed because of the fuss about stolen resources, and apparently some of the idiots actually went to the original Chinese forum to complain about it. This is why we can't have nice things. The same thing happened to Violated Heroine. Some bastard kept bugging the developers, so they decided to just block all foreign IPs.

I have no idea why the RGS file is so big either. May be it's something to do with RPGmaker XP? I haven't seen any RPGmaker XP games for a while.

It's my person server. I am using a link shortener because I want to see the statistics - my server has a bandwidth limit, so I want to know where the download requests are coming from. (outside of ulmf that is). However, if you prefer I can also upload onto mediafire instead.

It's a Chinese fan made game. There is no CG, just sprite sex. However, it is one of the BEST RPGmaker H game ever to be made, even when compared to popular games such as Virgin Island, Lady Knight and Dragon and Saki Quest.

I wish I know how to localize too, but I do not have the knowledge to do so.

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project

Thank you noman for translating this game, I've been waiting a long time to see someone pick this up and translate. The game is huge and actually pretty enjoyable as a RPG, but being at the mercy of google translate was painful and killed some of the enjoyment for me. Got a fair distance into the game especially after getting the 7 drag- err X-balls to cheat happily and make the more annoying problems like lust and perversion less bothersome.

Good luck in your translating.

Ah no, I was just doing a quick demonstration to repeat the error he was getting

Anyway, even when set to chinese the game crashed a ton, basically you had to save every once in awhile or lose a lot of progress. (have to actually set your PC to chinese also, using applocal didn't work right).

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project (Updated 06/04/2013)

I thought V 1.06 was supposed to have most of the bugs fixed, but then even I haven't finished playing the game. I lost my old save files, so I will need to start over again.

I couldn't upload the RPG Maker XP to mediafire, so I have to upload it to Mega instead, which means you will have to use chrome to download it unfortunately. It might just be my internet connection though, which is being a little wonky at the moment. I will try again tomorrow.

Here are all my save files taken before most of the bosses in the game. Should help shorten the work time with these.

Re: Ring of Lust Translation Project (Updated 06/04/2013)

I'm not sure, but I think if you put chinese rtp .dll into games directory, you don't need to install chinese rtp package

The only dll file I can find in program files(x86)/RPG Maker XP is SciLexer.dll, which is just 348 KB in size. That doesn't seem right.

I just received an email from Mediafire saying that my file has been taken down. A lot of the RPG maker games on this forum are shared through Mediafire, and the links stay up for very long time. Am I doing something wrong? I mean this game isn't even copyrighted.
