Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

Thanks for the translation. I've always loved Scale Garden games, and its nice to know the story without having to use a translator.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

Yup, just wanted to voice my gratitude for the translation.

Really liked this game--intriguing game design and superb artwork/some anims (and I've barely started)--but could never play it due to the lack of English translations. Always hated that most games have their menus and whatnot translated, making them barely playable, but never the story and dialogue, which is central for a good H-gaming experience for me.

Anyway, you've made one of my most desired H-games playable. Much appreciated for the obvious hard work that went into the translation! :D

It's a nice story, after all.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

Hows the game? Looks nice but hows the combat system. Which game combat system it resembles the most?

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

Feeling a bit like the dumb girl here. But can't seem to find where to download the game on this thread. Can someone give me a page # or link to download it.

After that I'll work on trying to get the english patch working. :confused:

Thank you!

You and your opponent have a determined amount of hp and defense. You are to distribute your defense and attack points manually which will affect how much damage you receive and dish out. These numbers are displayed and you will need to think about how you distribute points to last the battle. Defense points, and action points (which are needed to distribute your attack and defense points) will refresh in a couple of turns. HP to 0 means a loss, like in every game.

Did you have text before installing the translation? I've had this issue with other RPG maker games, and I think the issue is usually not having the right RPG maker RTP version.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

Translation was great, art was good, game was terrible. I hated the combat and the castle was a maze.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

I seem to be having the same audio problem.
On start-up, I get File/Audio/BGM/017-Theme06 not found.
None of the solutions that I found in the thread seemed to work, if anyone has any idea, some help would be much appreciated.

I apologize if I seem to have overlooked some of the answers, please direct me to them!

EDIT: Nevermind haha, did some tampering, some of the solutions I tried ended up making a problem for each other which I managed to fix.

I noticed long time ago that problems tend to fix themselves in 5-10 minutes after I ask about possible solution of forums. Even if hours upon hours were spent looking for an answer beforehand, trying everything possible and even some things impossible.

So now I have a firm belief in forum Goddess, minor divinity born from collective knowledge posted on all forums ever and given consciousness by character from all the banter on them. She judges posters based on sacred forum rules, bringing bad fortune and veil of ignore on bad posters, and grants flashes on insight from her immense knowledge to those who help others or seek answer themselves before spamming the thread. What we witness here is undoubtedly a sign of her divine providence.


...In my defense, it is nearing 4 AM and I should have been asleep for hours.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

Here's my translation attempt.

No lyrical masterpiece, but game was too long and tiring that I'm just happy that I managed to finish. Trying to finish in such a short time has pretty much left me dead but if I survive I will make edits if you guys can find any mistakes. (I'm sure there's plenty.)

Zip file with the data folders are in my sig.
Your My Hero, Thank You for the Translation. Take care of Yourself.

The game is using a font set that your computer does not have installed.

The attached file I have uploaded will change the font to comic sans using a ruby script. Unpack the contents and drop them into your game folder.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

*Sigh* REALLY should've read some of the earlier comments and saved myself some time. I'm sure most people reading already know what happens in the story, but I'll put a spoiler just in case.

I've played Sangeki--also a pretty good game--before and I immediately stopped playing at the forced rape point. I was definitely enjoying this game until the exact same thing happened in this story. Y'all probably would reply "oh, you should've expected that from Scalegarden" or "oh, if you don't like it, don't play it". Maybe I'm just naive or spoiled by modern games, but I enjoy a chance to keep my PC a virgin, or at least choose who she bangs. I don't mean to say Scalegarden SHOULD have GoR in his games either, but maybe the variation in storyline progression without forced sex should be available, IMHO. I guess it's Scalegarden's calling card, but it'll stop me from playing his next game when it comes out. Some of us like to fantasize with our PCs being helpless and violated, but I'd prefer options and choice, even if I want my character mind-broken (which I don't) or raped (well...sometimes, heh). Sounds a bit contradictory, but it's just me.

Anyway, just my opinion, but it was one hell of a buzzkill because I was so immersed in and enjoying the game. It's just something against my own taste. Furthermore, the translation was excellent, but the story was so poor...Rhode really doesn't have much character as a "strong-willed woman". She doesn't react as I'd expect a woman IRL to react to such advances, even assuming she's horny or mindbroken or whatever you want to use to justify it. Much of the beginning of the story seems just Ganzo boob-grabbing and ambiguously being half a domineering pervert and yet half a subservient subject. And IMHO, the story's REALLY linear and undriven; it's a hallmark of true RPGs to have some side-quests or optional elements. Rather, we're limited to the 'free-play' mode, which really is just 4-5 animations that were repeated again and that don't really influence the grand scheme of the story (to the best of my knowledge). Aside from that, we're spoonfed content and forced into situations, one of which I've already addressed.

Probably gonna get a lot of flak here, so I will admit that the game definitely had some excellent art and animations (which kept me playing for a while), and the gameplay was...umm...unique (I didn't progress far enough--or want to--to find out whether you get different items/weapons/clothing/armor breaks/GoR/party members/enemies/etc like you do in traditional RPG games...and something tells me none of that is in here anyway). Lastly, I know that it probably took a long time and a lot of work, so respect to that. I guess that one particular aspect just shut me down, just like certain things appeal to some of us and not to others. It is what it is.

All the same, I'm very thankful for the excellent translation (at least I COULD understand the story). So yup, just my opinion...nothing against Scalegarden or any of you who like it.
