Tuesday Doldrums
May 12th, 2009
Lazy lazy weekdays.
The weekday lulls this season really do bore me quite a bit. I like having a concrete schedule and things to keep myself busy, especially these weeks when I’m trapped indoors thanks to the never ending rain. It has been giving me more of a chance to work on GA and BMW, and I’m making decent progress on both. BMW is still under the process of receiving weekly major bugfixes from Werk, so I haven’t really done anything on its core files yet aside from getting some of the image translations done. I’ll probably throw together a quick patch this weekend incorporating all the bugfixes to date, although the ginormous stage 53 is still going to take awhile just because it’s inanely long.
GA’s also progressing on pace, more or less. There are a few very minor hacking issues remaining, but nothing that would inhibit playing in any major way, so it’s down to just the translation really. Up through chapter 4 should be finished by the end of this week or next, depending on a number of variables, the least of which is the somewhat mystifying organization of some of these scenes, and that I need to go through all of the Hell Hound battle quotes. Nothing’s quite so fun as going in to test a chapter and discovering a giant series of scenes stashed away in the middle scenes from a later chapter. Still, things are progressing continuously, so I’m pleased. If somebody wants to take on the basic image cleanup or subtitling the movies, that’d help, but it’s really just thankless grunt work that I’ve been putting off in favor of churning through the script. Hopefully I’ll be able to release an alpha patch for editing and cleanup before the month is out, but we’ll see. It’s at least quite a bit more fun to work on than more Type-Moon fanwankery… not that I’m a bit burned out on that or anything…
Well, that’s enough for now I suppose. Back to work.
