Hi there!

I've talked with the translator that was commissioned for some of the previous games that I've made HF Patches for. They are interested in translating Aicomi for a pretty reasonable price.

Now the question is, is a better translation worth the decent amount of money and time?

It would probably take about 2 months to finish. The translation would include story text for each of the unique story characters, as well as all talk scene text for normal characters. It would NOT include subtitles because they were AI-generated from voice clips - there is no original text to give to the translator, and I will not pay insane money for them to transcribe hours of moaning.

The current translation is barely adequate. It gets the point across, but answering questions is a matter of guess work. Don't got broke with this, but it certainly is needed.

My question would be "how were the current translations done?" There are some really excellent, free, (and even *local*) speech to text engines out there (OpenAI whisper), as well as the same for excellent, free, and local text to speech engines (the local ones sometimes take a number of tries to get the 'emotion' right, but still worth it for effectively just a time investment - and the TTS engines that are derived from Coqui/xtts can even use the Japanese Source Audio (in Japanese) to speak the English text...)

Here's an example of live *local*, real-time text to speech from (broadly) 15 second audio samples from another creator here on Patreon... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSCL-vCXSuo

if there a steam ver. yes but i dont think i heard of this game.

What was this game again? Perhaps I'll give it a try before next summer.

I'm conflicted. On the one hand the auto-translation is absolutely terrible and needs serious upgrading, on the other hand I have found AIComi itself to be quite lacking in features compared with Koikatsu.

If the price is reasonable, then I think it could be worth it. I doubt the game will come to Steam anytime soon

I wold be waiting to see how many people take it up. Cause and effect. Or, never put the cart before the horse.

I would wish for chara-card converter for AC back to SVS

i have never played the game but fyi not meaning to take work away from anyone and i honestley think a paid translator would do a better job but i do know on dl sight i think it is there is a free translaton group for henti games called tranlators unite just out of curostity i tried to take there test and i found myself searching google for the language i was like ok you really really need to know both english and japanese in order to do this .

Translators Unite is a part of DLsite, they are not free. They may offer a free translation to the author in exchange for sales exclusivity and/or other concessions. You can't ask them for a translation if you're not selling on DLsite, and there would be no point in doing so since you can just ask one of the translators they contract directly (as I often do).
