Just to copy DNA’s topic here… 
OK I just received all the LMM data…including a friggin’ 200+ pages of walkthrough and flowcharts (in japanese), straight from the staff at Will Japan. Guess I will start working on it pretty soon…if I am not too bogged down with doujin stuff…
YAY! I’m glad to know this title is getting serious work done on it again! After Slave Bazaar, this is the title I am most looking forward to!
Yippee! Now if I can only remember where I stashed away my artbook…
200+ pages of walkthroughs and flowcharts? That’d definitely will take some time to go through. Urgh, my resist geeky anticipation of title…
Well, sounds like it’ll be a lot of work. And then some. Good luck, you’re probably going to need it. Thanks a bunch in advance, and I’ll stop bugging you now.
I didn’t count how many pages but they are as thick as your typical b-game artbook which is in the neighborhood of 200pages…
As long as progress is “maid” (sorry, couldn’t help myself :P), I’m cool with it.
Man, after checking through how the entire engine works…it looks like LMM might actually take longer to test than BS …and the 200+ page booklet itself is already imtimidating, but we will see since I haven’t really started any actual work yet, maybe if I get the hang of it work gets done faster…
I will be busy for the next 2 weeks with a Japanese CG contest submission so I don’t think I will start the editing/testing until then; so far I only ran through the game once very quickly to see what the game is like in the new engine with new options and uncensored graphics etc and skipping 99% of the text by holding the CTRL key all the way through…and what do you know I got a good ending
Compared to the ANCIENT win95-based engine LMM used in the Japanese version, ya this is much better in terms of both functionality, and possibly IMHO aesthetically better than the engine used in Critical Point (I only played the english demo Dave E posted long ago though). I can’t really compare much now since it’s been years since I played the japanese version of LMM I pretty much forgot what the interface looked like back then…
And yup all the eye blinking and mouth moving will be carried over to the new engine, so you guys should be happy about this…although I am currently figuring out why Aya moves her mouth when Mari is the one doing the talking

Interesting. I would have thought that BS would have had a more complex engine. Then again, what do I know? [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/tongue.gif[/img]

Heh, hopefully you do figure it out. Could get a little confusing otherwise.

I will just say that they all take lip-synch lessons every night
maybe its a sick joke… they wanted to imitate the old english dubs of foreign films, so they took it a step further and made someone do the lip movements while someone else was speaking.

dooes the happy-lemon-dance
if I collect enough mileage points for a free plane ticket to asia (currently ~56000/75000) I will definitely think about it
Um, would you guys like to be alone?
Boy, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen the happy lemon dance, though I like it better when it’s actual lemons doing the dancing…
