Violated Hero 4 Announced
Feels like I just created a category for VH3 when they’ve already got a 4th one announced. This time around, they’re actually taking user submissions. Details are here: http://dieselmine.com/rec_pro_2nd.htm
They’ll take submissions throughout August and then everyone gets to vote on them from September 4th through the 23rd. It also sounds like if you submit artwork of your monster girl and it gets chosen, they’ll pay you for it, although the details of that aren’t really laid out. For a textual description, they’re essentially looking for the equivalent of an encyclopedia entry with a brief summary of rape scenes.
After 3 VH games and 200+ monsters in MGQ, I think we’ve really scraped the barrel of monster girls dry, but perhaps people will come up with some fresh ideas.
Dargoth's Monster Girl Game Translations 
too bad i cant read japanese i do believe you but i could tell what i was looking at, second this came pretty fast guess they believe monster girl is a very profitable angle to go with works for me
LOL that was quick.
That’s what Alice said….
What speed, we barely played 3 and 4 is already announced.
Other developers could learn from their example.
Umh ended VH3 3 times already but no matter the choises i take i’ve always ended on Lei Ling as the final boss. What do i’ve to do to get the other 2?
PS: i went through all 4 combination for the first part (run-power run-know fight-power fight-know) but non of this made a 2nd choise between the encounters with the kyuubi appear i can only selecet unable to do anything
Anyway they work fast
I made some comments in the readme (ha, who reads that), and I think the only thing that matters for the endings is that you have to deal 500 damage to Fan Mei in 5 turns when you fight her at the end of area 5. The game kind of hints at this by giving you a choice with only one option if you fail to do so. After succeeding at that, you’ll get a choice of final bosses once you reach area 9.
It hurt my head trying to make sense of all the route flags and various point totals, but I’m pretty sure they’re irrelevant. If you lose that fight, you get +3 points with the Empress. The most number of points you can possibly get with Fan Mei or Sei Mei if you lose that fight is also 3. However, ties go to the Empress because her values are checked first. So if you lose the fight, you get the Empress. If you win the fight (and have cleared her route before), you get to choose your route no matter how many points you have with each girl. It appears that the only case in which the points matter are if you win that fight on your very first play-through. I guess that would take some grinding, luck, or both. If you do that, you’ll get Fan Mei’s route unless you have more points with Sei Mei. Kind of silly.
i know it probably wont happen but it would be a little funny if by the time you finished VH3 there was 2 or three more that got developed
Thanks a lot *smack* 2hour wasted solved in 5 min 😛 Well keep up the good work
Don’t feel bad. I wasted 2 hours trying to make sense of the route flags and points myself. They helpfully provided comments in the code, but one of the comments was incorrect, which really threw me off.
This is not a bad idea.
We see anime/ manga with characters having similar design all the time but people always find something new within a character they like. I’ve seen quite a few Lamia’s out there but all of them are pretty unique in their own way. So even if they don’t ”invent” new designs coming back to those standard ones will still be interesting.
But anyway, I would suggest a centaur girl. Anyone with Japanese knowledge can pass this wish of mine to them?
I think lilim, vampire, dark elf, fallen angel, lizard girl and minotaur haven’t been done yet.
by dieselmine that is.
What about a Chimera or a Manticore? Cow Girl, Cenataur, Manris Girl, Sandworm girl, Tiger Cat girl. Hust the one off the top of my head.
All of those were done in MGQ although Tiger Cat girl was only in a spin-off story.
Genie as well hasn’t been done but…
the should to unite with torotoro and then they could make monstergirl games nonstop XD
will you be translating VH4 when in the future?
Let me at least get through VH3 before I answer that.
Wow, they sure are bullrushing these things out while MGQ is still popular.
http://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ118664
No idea what this monster girl game is about, but I figure I’ll throw it out there.
If I had to take I guess, I say that there are going to be alot of paizuri scenes in that game.
well god bless paizuri !
That and breast milking, I mean, you can’t tell me that game isn’t gonna have breast milking! Also judging by the images and the title it feels like its going to include alot of harem manga/anime cliches *except with lots of adult content and monster girls obviously*, I’d play it, but probably only for the monster girls and not the story, I’ve seen to many harem anime in my lifetime and know all the cliches, I rarely get surprised by that stuff anymore.
Wish I could translate, looks fun :3 Been missing some paizuri.
Agreed 😛
Wont be buying VH 4. All the others illustrated that they have taken a cookie cutter approach to storyline, scenes, game mechanics, and monster girls. The fact that they have 4 announced with so little downtime illustrates that they sold out to the mainstream publishing zeitgeist. That being reproduce what people like, add a bauble or two, then publish for profit. It lacks the ingenuity that makes a run of the mill game great.
In their defense, the games are getting better in terms of story and gameplay with each one, and they’re getting longer too (VH3 has ~55% more lines than VH2, which was much longer than VH1). Also, just because they announced a contest of sorts for VH4 doesn’t mean it’s coming out any time soon. For all we know at this point, it might be released next year and end up being really good.
I’d rather Dieselmine churn out more monster girl games than make stinkers like Total Male Slave or just sit on their asses making nothing at all. As long as they keep putting more effort into each sequel, I’m not willing to take them to task for churning out low effort titles for quick cash.
Fair points on the length increase and the improvements in story. Those are improvements and I’m glad you aren’t taking them to task and that I am. Any franchise needs both fair weather and franchise loyal players to succeed.
My set keeps the creative process going such that developers don’t get lazy w/ the cookie cutter approach; meanwhile, yours supports a good team long enough that they can get past the inevitable creative slumps.
That said, I have zero tolerance for gaming companies that utilize real world pay-for-perks or unlock/gear systems that give significant advantages for addicted players against the casual.
Very true, mass effect is just an example from the top of my head. But you gotta love the companies that aren’t just out to squeeze as much blood out of a stone as they can before finding another stone. Terrible analogy i know lol.
well that is pretty fast I have not even played part 3 yet, how is the translation going for part 3.
well all in all more things to look fowared to, keep up the good work,
I think monster girlwise, we’ve reached a point where we are looking at variants of different species, and variations in designs of ones already done. I don’t know if a kobold has been done. Cthulu’s female form could be interesting. From here it’s all just artists renditions.
They can use the same monster as base again. I’ve seen many Lamias out there and all of them have something unique. Besides, so many anime/manga today where you see a lot of similar characters but still people find some unique thing in them every now and then.
can we get an update on MQ3 progress now. it seems like you havent posted on since you said that it was going to be coming out last month
rogue has a 37% patch
roguetranslations.wordpress.com/
goblins, incubus, orcs, trolls
yes I said incubus. Don’t try to pretend they didn’t have that hellhound in vh2
:>
Man that freaked me out in all honesty
So many monstergirls, so little time!
I would love to see more futanari, like Tama (the hellhound) in VH2
Indeed. Actually they could make a main character a futanari in one game. ^^
Yeah, that’s a cool idea 🙂
Oh, Illias, no!
I can hardly tolerate even one futa but if MC will be futa as well…
Youth is… all about experimentation sir.
Futanari main character, now theres something we can agree on 🙂
Nah, they won’t do it. You can check Dieselmine’s works in exhentai. Only 6 of 78 of their games have futa. So they don’t like it that much.
Note that they did they also used the fairy monster twice.
as a joke how about a female version of a tonberry?
how about Mara from smt?
You mean the giant penis on the golden chariot? That Mara
Well WILD FLOWER did it, so why not?
Dargoth, how is the translation looking so far?
There’s a VH3 Progress tab. It’s going well, but the increased size of the game sure makes it not seem that way, haha…
I don;t know if this has already been posted before but you should check out http://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ118626.html I played a bit of it and it seems interesting
is there a male protagonist?
No
So, how’s the progress going?
There’s a progress page listed with the other tabs.
https://dargothtranslations.wordpress.com/vh3-info/
Ah, crap, missed that. Thanks.
I don’t think Monster Girls will ever die, since I don’t think it’s a spinoff of traditional ryona.
I mean think about it. In traditional ryona all you ever see is girls getting raped by monsters or assholes or both.
In monster girl games, there’s variety as either the guy can be doing the raping, or it’s the girl. There’s a lot of scene variation.
To each his own. I love Monster Girl games because of the male rape, with menacing girls being assertive and sadistic towards you. If the guy does the raping then it’s no different then the same vanilla thing that is present in every hentai/game/VN out there. Fortunately for me, there are a lot of games like Violated Hero out there and I hope they will continue to come.
help dargoth rogue’s dead.
He’s in the irc channel regularly, alive and well.
who’re you gonna trust, me or irc?
Hey dargoth look what was dropped yester day
http://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ119143.html
Oooh, this looks interesting 🙂
Game mechanics in this one are interesting enough to hold my attention. Someone should translate it.
Welp, Rouge’s “July is Over” topic has been thrashed…
yeah just checked over there, complete black screen.
I thought it was my PC acting up.
Not a black screen, somebody posted a picture that goes on forever at the bottom that is completely black.
Dargoth, wanted to know if there is any chance you translate ROBF.
It is a great monster girl game!
It’s one of those that I’d really like to get around to, but never have the time. I should probably learn how to translate RPGMaker games at some point though.
you should really try,
I was surprised, for me it surpasses any other monter girl game …
if you could translate, it would be a great help.
Thanks for listening, and forgive my English, is not my native language.
sorry for double post, but i also find a video about how translate RPG MAKER games.
if you want to look, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ex7gFRvZPI
I also want to encourage you to do it. ROBF is pretty nice (and complex), not merely a linear game like the others
Ztron that method will not work since DreaMaker doesn’t work with VX & VX ACE
though we could use this method to translate other games like Succubus Quest
I have an unrelated question.
How do you make a text document display properly if it has foreign language characters in it? Does it get messed up during extraction of the file from the zipped folder?
For example, in the 0.txt of your Desire Dungeon patch, you get things like:
;y•Ï”ˆê——z
;
numalias save_or_load,16;ƒZ[ƒuƒ[ƒh”»’è—p•Ï”
numalias isclick_wait,20;ƒNƒŠƒbƒN‘Ò‚¿Šm”F
The game seems to run fine, but the text file is nearly unreadable.
You just need a text editor configured to use the proper encoding. If your computer is in Japanese locale, even notepad will display the file fine.
Hey can you translate “complete male salve” too when you get a chance?
http://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ121064.html
I actually thought all hope of getting this was lost, but then I saw this. I’ll more than likely be getting this.
http://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ119143.html
Tried this one myself. It looks good, and sex scenes are really long. Reminds me of Nocturne game. Cool that you have a monster girl companion but unfortunately I didn’t see any rape on loosing. Seems like there is only vanilla sex with more important characters.
Dargoth don’t suppose you could point me to the skill set/knowledge I would need to translate japanese games like these? All I know is Hex editors is one of the tools translators use. I’m learning japanese now so I’d like to start learning the other skills I need to achieve my goals of contributing to people enjoying these great games from japan, and being able to share the games “I” like with others in english.
I’ve had a hard time getting other translators to divulge any information on the subject and when I do I always get “google it” which funny enough all my MANY google searches yield aside from “use hex editors” is links to forums where other people asking the same questions get told “google it”.
I’m probably not the best person to ask about the technical details because I stick to games made in common engines that already have tools written for them. I feel your pain when it comes to googling that stuff though. I’ve tried and found virtually nothing myself. There really isn’t much online about this kind of thing, but the best tutorial I’ve found is this one: http://proger.i-forge.net/Stage_Once_-_a_Visual_Novel_hacking_tutorial/IPD
The Russians seem to have a much more active Japanese game hacking scene than we do in English, which is unfortunate for us. Trying to be both a hacker and a translator is tough work though.
What happened to Rogue?
Is he alive?
He didn’t update his blog in a month.
I understand that he can be busy with his life or work but he could take 1 minute from his busy schedule and write something like “My hands are full right now so I won’t translate in this/next month”. It’s better than not knowing anything. Maybe he got in an accident or completely forgot about translation or he was abducted by UFO.
Nah, Rogue’s doing fine, he’s just been busy. If he posted anything, people would want a % update, and he probably doesn’t want to post that and have everyone extrapolate dates.
Same goes to you Dargoth innit? ^^ Are you also quite busy?
I’m not particularly busy compared to him. I could spend more time translating, but I know my limits and don’t want to burn myself out. My slow and steady approach has worked well for me so far.
Fair enough 🙂
Do realize that genuine curiosity turns to pestering as more folks ask Rogue about the next patch’s ETA. Add in that some folks deliberately slow down their progress when annoyed; so maybe it’d be wiser for all of us to collectively take a deep breath, zip it, and wait…
Also, a month without posting for a translation project is common…
Other than Rogue, I’m also waiting for news from you, dargoth! VH4 seems like a great game (played it through in entirely Japanese) and I was wondering if you’re still continuing the translation project. Let us know what you’re up to please! We crave news 🙂
Wait, how did you play VH4 when it has not yet been released?
I’m sure he meant VH3!
VH3! My bad
I feel so sorry for Rouge right now. There are people impersonating him on his blog acting like total fucking idiots…
Rogue doesn’t have it easy does he?
No he does not. Dargoth here has it really easy though. Both do a fantastic job at what they do, just people seem to be unable to give Rouge a break.
I will say it straight. It is rogue not rouge.
Gha. Sorry about that Anon! Thanks for correcting my mistake.
Dargoth bro. Is there going to be a release soon? Really want to see what Slime Maid has to say. :lmao
Yeah, probably at the end of the week. Keep your eyes on the VH3 Progress tab.
I know I’m asking too much, but dargoth, could you translate these two pictures? I looking for a translation for centuries! sorry if I asked too much…
http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/1133787?tags=kafu
http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/1133788?tags=kafu
Not much to say about those images, it’s just standard sex talk.
First image, right side: You wanted to do it like this, right? Mireshian boy… (name of the place he’s from I guess?) Can you see? Your dick is buried all the way to the base. Oh, it’s pretty thick… huhu, such a bad boy. Ngh, that’s right, grab me with both hands and hit me deeper.
Left side: Oh my, you’re breathing so heavily through your nose… you’re just like a beast. You’re really stirring up the insides of my vagina… Hehe, do you want to come already? Oh well… hora, hoora… come, huhuhu…
Second image, right side: Ngh… can’t hold on much longer, can you? You’re twitching… That’s all right, your face drowning in pleasure suits you well. Nn, haa, hora… since you’re a good boy… ah, ngh, huu, ah, fufufu… ngh.
Left side: Nn, haa… nn, what… there’s so much of it… Even though you just came from my paizuri. Huhu… I’m starting to like you… Well then, let’s stay together a bit longer like this.
Dargoth, this is why people love you. Might I ask if you have any plans for the upcoming future?
I am not gay, but i love you!!
Going to take me most of, if not all of, the rest of the year to finish VH3, unfortunately. Wish I could snap my fingers and have it done so I could do something like ROBF, but then there’s VH4 coming out too. So many games…
Sorry for asking but some japanese guy posted this picture on one of facebook page also claimed that Monster girl quest is going to be serialized i ask him for sources but nothing so far, i know it’s probably a fake but it still bugs me could you check this pic and see what’s written there ?
Not fake man.
last page of this comic:
http://exhentai.org/g/625402/115e86d479/
talks about the serialization of mgq.
(if you get sad panda trying this link google should have several ways for
you to access that site.)
Yeah, it’s legit. Jingai Modoki doing the art and Torotoro himself writing it. Should be awesome.
Thanks guys another thing to look forward to i hope it turn out to be awsome
I am terribly sorry for sounding like a total idiot here, really. But what do you mean by “Serialized?”
It just means there’s going to be more than one issue. Could be monthly, one every two months, etc. We don’t know yet.
Aha, thanks Dargoth! Sounds pretty sweet if you ask me.
So the VH 4 monster poll is up. Not sure if they will rotate in more monsters over the coming weeks? I have to say the Nightmare and the electric eel lady are looking really good. Most of the entries have descriptions of their H-scenes too.
I voted nightmare.
I ended up voting for the robot
That is, character 08. If she makes it into VH4, I’ll buy the game (I may just buy it anyways, just because I kinda like monster girls ]
