Patch progress checklist

[beato91]

thank you very much! i signed up this account just to thank you for this awesome patch :)
i don't want to sound ungrateful (or anything like that) but i have a question if you don't mind: any tentative ETA of sorts?

No, sorry. I only work on this in my free time and when I have the energy to, and I'm not sure how long it will take. As you can see, the patch is kind of close to completion now that I'm around halfway through Tsubasa, but I do not really have a consistent pace working on this stuff -- my energy is limited and not exactly predictable. It will be finished when it is.

Of course, you can already play through the existing content, so if you're intending to start Umineko now, you should feel free to go ahead and just update the patch when it's done. Patch updates will not break saves or anything like that.

as seen in nasuverse VNs, only fans can keep a series truly alive and make it infinitely better. bless you :)

Fantastic job on this mod!
Though I would just like to ask if there's a way to change the dialogue font since the default one looks way too big.

[andOlga]

The font can be theoretically replaced (though it will break some manually-aligned lines in the script), but it won't actually make it any smaller since the font size and the font face aren't dependent on each other. There is a fairly obvious reason the font is "way too big", though -- this is a console game, meant to be playable on a TV that's far away from your face, and since "playing" it is basically just reading a wall of text, they aimed for a comfortable experience there. If you are experiencing it on an emulator, it may feel "off" since PC VNs, especially English ones, generally use smaller fonts to fit more text on screen at once. English letters also all have much more obviously different shapes from each other than Japanese characters which can have very tiny differences, so there's also that.
