In order to patch the game you need to unarchive the nscript.dat file. That file contains the actual script for the whole game. In order to do that you need to use special command line tools. Monster Girl Quest was written using the OnScripter engine. That means you need to use the OnScripter command line tools to unarchive the nscript.dat file. You can obtain the tools at http://unclemion.com/onscripter/releases/ .The zip file you want to download is http://unclemion.com/onscripter/pub/onscr/onscrtools-win32-20100915.zip .To edit the script you can use any text editor. I recommend you use Notepad++ which can be obtained here http://notepad-plus-plus.org/. When you load the file make sure you change the text encoding to Encoding->Character Sets->Japanese->Shift-JIS. That will let you properly load the Japanese Kanji characters in the text file. Once you finish your edits, you need to re-archive the script file using the OnScripter Tools you downloaded. In order to make the whole patching process go by faster I wrote Batch files that put the relevant commands in for me, that way all I have to do is click on them to auto patch and test the game patch. I think I might do a video tutorial on this. If you're interested then subscribe to my youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/RaIToYaGaMiDeSu. C0var1ant (talk) 23:50, October 13, 2012 (UTC)

"Missing" folders
The reason you can't find the '''bg, chara, voice folders is because they exist inside of the archived ARC .nsa files. Let me explain how the game uses it's resources. First, when you combine chapter 1 with chapter 2 of Monster Girl Quest, there will be a total of five .nsa ARC files.'''



These five files contain the three aforementioned folders, collectively.



I used a program called Crage to unpack these ARC files. Once you unpack them, you will get 5 folders with the same name as the files you unpacked.



Lets look inside the "arc" folder. The first ARC .nsa file contains all the resources used in chapter 1 of Monster girl quest.



If you look inside the "arc" folder you will discover the bg, chara and, voice folder that were "missing."



If you check the bg folder you will find what you expect, it's full of the game's backgrounds in BMP format.



So basically the reason you're confused as to the location of these folders is because they are placed inside of the arc files. The other stuff was left in open folders like the background music.

Re:CG Erros
I'm doing all of it by myself. As for the erros you showed me, the engine used by Monster Girl Quest is VERY picky about how the BMP images are encoded. I have this problem using Photoshop CS5. I found that another program called Paint.NET encodes the BMP images in a way that the game engine likes. That's what I use to generate the images. You can obtain Paint.NET here: http://www.getpaint.net/

RE: Permission
Saw your post on ALAKTORN's page and I can already say you that you do NOT need permission to post a page first, BUT you might want to think about the following things: If you make a blog, think about linking it from the Side Stories page.
 * Is the page you want to add part of the official game or translation (in your case no, so look at the next points)
 * Is it going to be an good well filled page, even if you leave out any pictures and without making text long on purpose. If not, post in on the Side Stories page, or in a blog as they are even more free for what to (not) post.
 * Images are allowed however in the final product as long as they are not 18+ (or edited to be that way, mostly be obscuring genitals and nipples).
 * Is the item the page is about "presentable". Meaning that if it is just a alpha / beta with say only the first 3 monsters done, then keep it to a Side Story / blog post for now.

Hope this helps, and if ALAKTORN has anything to add, feel free =P FurRiffic (Talk) 18:54, November 22, 2012 (UTC)

Not capable of changing the header myself but I think I did leave a change request. Also I edited some of the content / layout of the page. If you try to edit the page now you will get forced into source (code) mode, because the layout of the page was quite badly messed up in there. FurRiffic (Talk) 08:37, November 23, 2012 (UTC)

SEALED
What age you want heinrich to be? Safin117 (talk) 12:08, November 26, 2012 (UTC)

Well i agree that he cant be an bearly walking old man who cant remeber what he was doing yesterday,and i think he should be 30 years old.But still i dont see him as some kind of a hero from behind the corner,there is something about his name what makes me imagine him as a noble looking knight in a full body armor,and with a big ass sword with a middle lenght hair and maybe a short beard.Unfortunately im not really good at drawing things,so what i can do for you is that i can try to search for some pictures or drawings which fits my imagination,if you want of courseSafin117 (talk) 13:42, November 26, 2012 (UTC)

Ok so maybe i will be able to make it easier,i think i got someone who can make a drawing for us,if so you wont have to ask for permissionSafin117 (talk) 14:12, November 26, 2012 (UTC)

C-c-collaboration!
Oh man! Ohmanohman! You have no idea how thrilled I would be at a reference in Sealed! This pretty much made my evening. In return; mind if I reference Sealed in Flowers of Coal? I imagine that by the time frame, Holst is pretty much dried bones and dust now, given that he was buried in Rhetorical Rust; though Chrome may have kept a few favorite souveneirs from him... And given where everyone is, it's possible that Chrome/dark magic/etc brought him back somehow? His body may just be ash, but then again she has been working with ghosts after all!

Feel free to go crazy though, as I'm cool with pretty much anything you decide to do. If you want me to help out, just let me know and I'd be glad to be of assistance in pretty much anyway. I've had a few ideas for 'creature' designs that won't be making it into my stories, but might be lurking in the background of the Labyrinth... OldSlashFriend (talk) 10:03, December 10, 2012 (UTC)

Upcoming Labyrinth Hijinks
Thank you - I like this feeling of cross-universe work that's been going on recently. Makes me feel more productive, if that makes any sense?

Don't worry - we're in no rush, especially as I'm going to be nightmarishly busy until about the eighteenth at the earliest, and I'm sure it'll be a bit until Chapter 4. Just check back in with me whenever you want to crank out some work together and we'll work something out. I did manage to get a copy of your excel flowchart before your mediafire gave me that odd error and it looks good, especially w/your plot branches. Maybe Luka fights 'waves' of Chromes' experiments from other areas brought in as Labyrinth patrols? If you get that wave function working, each fight could be comparitively low-hp, but wear Luka down with every encounter. And here's what I'd see Chrome doing in each case (at the moment):

1) Chrome is bitter and nursing a grudge from an embarrassing defeat. I think she is kind of prideful, so being able to attack a lone, possibly tired from zombie battlin' Luka? Just up her alley. This route shouldn't give the player too much, since in it Luka kind of made the mistake of not trying to talk things out... It should be a tough fight that follows the general rule of Chrome battles - high damage, nasty attacks, and kind of embarrasingly low HP. Maybe she's draining the Labyrinth of some of its magical power? Anyway, this path doesn't yield much information.

2) After finding every single lost Kitsune - this scenario sounds like it could be hilarious, and you could also have some genuinely scary scenes like the original Haunted Mansions in MGQ Part 1 - Chrome confronts Luka, ready to fight!... And quickly backs down when she realizes she is hilariously outnumbered. Given that she is a fairly logical being who acts courteous in the face of bad odds, she's willing to talk and have a dialogue, perhaps revealing some information (false information? Maybe she could try to purpousely mislead the party - or better yet, give them a hint about something to come, but not know the *whole* truth?) - and as soon as she sees her chance runs/opens up a portal/gets swept away by an underground river because she's tiny.

I will not lie, I like the last option best. XD

Anyway - loving the idea of the two paths right now! Feel free to get back to me with more ideas and stuff now, or whenever convenient. OldSlashFriend (talk) 08:06, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

Sealed
Hi I have a little question to ask. When you start a new game with your game, is it suppose to start me all the way from the beginning or am I suppose to be in a different location? I followed the directions in your read me and I got the Sealed Title screen, but when I clicked new game I started all the way back to the dream sequence with Ilias.DJexe (talk) 12:37, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, I got it. Thanks.DJexe (talk) 14:11, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

Ran into another problem. An error showed up when I was about to fight the Alrune in Undine's Prison.DJexe (talk) 16:54, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for bugging you again, but when I replaced the nscript the game won't load.DJexe (talk) 18:05, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

Everything worked out ok. I got to the 2 vampire fights at the end of Chapter 2 with no problems.DJexe (talk) 05:37, December 13, 2012 (UTC)

Got a little situation here. When I use Hyper Undine, a few lines will show up and then an error pops up.DJexe (talk) 13:36, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
