Visual Novel Translation Update

Good day, I've already made a YouTube community post but here it is with updated information:

I've been hard at work on my writing projects while balancing day-to-day life stuff, and what I had planned for this channel is still on the back burner. But, I found some free time and started some preliminary work/research on how to make future translation projects easier and faster for me, as I have little time to work on it and want to get as much done with my time as possible. I also wanted to produce videos at a higher quality, so I did some looking into that as well. I can say now that I have (after much testing) found a workflow that is not as jank as when I did it the first time. When the time comes and I start working on it, it should cut my time translating and editing in half.

In other news, I have gone back to Yukino's route and fixed some of the translations that were a bit off, and some text issues that bothered me after multiple viewings. The re-uploads of the first two parts that I did were just visual changes to the text to make it consistent with later parts when I got into a better flow, and didn't really touch the actual translation. This second pass, I have updated on both fronts and also plan to export at 4K so that it will look better on screens with a bigger resolution (hopefully, my current experiment seems to be working as intended). I have also created a full route version, which is almost 8 hours long! This new video will be posted soon, and the new videos will be uploaded as unlisted and replace the old videos in the YouTube playlist and will be linked in every video description.

As I'm writing this I'm currently rendering the video out so the video should be up sometime Saturday. There were several errors I noticed in my first render so I couldn't fix them until today when I had time.

That's all for now, thanks for reading!
