Download the “patch” here:
7zip version that is hopefully more compatible with different operating systems: http://dargothtranslations.com/files/patches/MGQ Paradox 2 English Release 1.7z
If you don’t have anything that can open 7zip files, here’s a regular zip: http://dargothtranslations.com/files/patches/MGQ Paradox 2 English Release 1.zip
If the Japanese files in /Translation Files/Scripts/ have gibberish file names, the translation is not going to work. Either use the 7zip file, extract the zip with a different program, use applocale, or just set your computer to Japanese locale.
Instructions:
Note: This patch is technically compatible with versions 2.00-2.02 of Paradox and potentially with future versions as well. For best results and greater chances of future compatibility, I recommend using 2.02. However, if you only have 2.00 or 2.01 and don’t want to download another 2.31GB, you should be fine with the older versions for now. There are a few bugs that 2.02 fixes, namely the one where you can’t advance if you skip fighting Queen Alraune and continue the story elsewhere instead. If that happens to you, download 2.02 and copy your save over and you’ll be fine.
1. Unzip all the files in the zip into a directory. An empty directory is a good idea. The game directory works too if you don’t mind clutter. Just don’t run the Japanese Game.exe afterwards and complain that the patch didn’t work.
2. Double-click on RUNME.bat. The GameSelector program will prompt you to type/paste the path to your game directory. If you chose to copy the files into the game directory in step 1, you can just click OK here. This will take a while. You’ll probably have to press a key to close the GameSelector and Translator programs when they finish so the batch file can resume.
3. The translated version of the game can be found in the /out/ directory. The batch file creates a shortcut to the English Game.exe for you, though. Any saves you had should be copied over.
In order to view any of the scenes, requests, or battle fuckers from the first part of the game, you need to copy over all the files from the /Graphics/Pictures/ directory of part 1 to the /Graphics/Pictures/ directory of part 2. Overwrite the few files with the same name. Congratulations, that’s all you had to do to “merge” the two parts into one game. If you’ve already done this, you don’t have to do it again after running the translation programs.
Currently translated in this initial partial patch:
- Almost all items (missing new accessories and some new armor)
- Enemy and character names (although anyone you’ve recruited will still be in Japanese for now)
- Interface for menus and battles
- All the skills, abilities, job/race info, etc. from part 1. Some new ones. A few descriptions may be outdated.
- …the title screen. Hey, it’s something.
NOT translated yet:
The actual text of the game… Still working on getting the part 1 translations into the new files. Hopefully that will be done in a matter of days. I’ve learned way more than I’ll ever need to know about file encodings, line endings, byte order marks, recursive merge strategies, and all the ways things can fuck up when attempting to merge over a half million lines of text.
We’re already going through the new maps to get the story translated ASAP. New content from part 2 as well as older content that was never translated in part 1 are being worked on simultaneously. Everything will eventually be translated. Sorry if you wanted to start over or do a new game+ in part 2 already — I’d suggest keeping part 1 around and playing with it for now.
I’m crossing my fingers that this method of patching results in fewer issues. The good news is that it’s compatible with different versions of the game, even future versions (depending on what changes), and it’s a whole lot easier to apply future translation patches after getting everything set up the first time. It should also be more idiot-proof than the picky patch.exe from before. Once Torotoro has stopped official updates for part 2, I’ll consider releasing patches in the old format as well as the new. Or if this method goes horribly…
If you didn’t already know, then for future reference, translation files can be found at: https://bitbucket.org/dargothtranslations/mgq-paradox-2/downloads/?tab=branches
The repository will be a bit of a mess until the maps and events are ready and everything is merged together. At any rate, you can place new files in the /Script/ directory and run Ytinasni.RpgMaker.Translator.exe to build a new version of the game.
Awesome 🙂 thank you for all your hard work.
I cant seem to get it to work no matter what i do anyone have skype or anything so i could get explained how to get this patch to work I have used every method on here.
I have a skype Bj. Send a request to thomas.wilkinson.777 and then let me know it’s you and not some random person, cause I get random skype requests more often hat I’d like. Also, I just woke up, so I’ll need some time to decompress.
I can seem to get the patch to work however I can’t get save data to transfer over, but when I use the application for the Japanese version it works.
Your save data may be of a different version than the one you are using. If you were transferring a lesser version to the newest 2.11, then it would be fine, but is there a chance you are trying to transfer the save of a later version to an earlier version?
I am moving the save data from part one which is version 1.21.00 to part 2 which is version 2.02.01.
I am having the same issue, where the Japanese.exe loads my save file, but the English one disregard it’s existence
I found the solution. Copy the save file to the “out” folder instead.
Thanks Dargoth <3

Just wanted to mention to those who still haven’t recruit Queen Elf, you do use the second option in Colosseum for Silver Trophy, the options there correlate with race. Angel is easiest, choose second option, second-last option for next page, choose the one with the “sky” character.
Poseidoness is recruitable with one of the sea Bosses, not sure which, probably Kraken or Queen Mermaid.
天使 = Angel
Look for the same characters on the options.
We need 4 angels for that. I only have Ilias, Promestein, and Luka.
How exactly do they work, I can’t seem to select any of them.

OMG!!! POkepoekokpepokepokepokekope’
honestly the true mvp
This better not be Soon™
Am I the only one who didn’t notice the title screen was not translated until now?
http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/2013/07/oh-yes.gif
Thanks for your work Dargoth and the others working for this project.
How to recruit queen fairy?
She just kinda joins you no strings attatched after you beat all 4 of the leaders and start looking for the orbs…
Where do you find the 2 leaders? I have defeated the queen fairy and the spider princess, I don’t know where to look for the rest.
Vampires are on the island in the north eastern portion of the map, and mermaids are on what looks like a mountain area to the west of estus(or whatever) village
Where do you find the 2 leaders? I defeated the queen fairy and the spider princess, no idea about the last 2…
If you are talking about invasion, San Ilia and Sabasa.
If you are talking about attacking them at their home-base.
Press Q to get world map. Vampire queen is in grey island North-East. Mermaid queen is in the mountains west of Esta, should have a shiny sparkle.
Find Amira 21 times.
Thanks for the work, Dargoth and co.
Finally
Thanks for everything. I hope Luka’s custom sword and the shirt from the original trilogy are capable of being upgraded even more. I also wonder if the LoC has new gear in it.
Okay so the sword can go up to “Justice Custom” from what I have found so far, and the shirt can be upgraded to +++. Hopefully they can go even further.
I didnt know about lukas shirt… however currently in my game according to google translate his sword is now the fractal custom + or something
Personal wish that we eventually get the angel halo, and can maybe combine it with whatever the most upgraded custom sword is…
Sword goes up to Halo Night Custom. Armor goes up to Pandemonium.
That sounds great.
Ok what is his special shirt/armor called in the beginning and after the first few upgrades because now i feel like i missed out on something?
First sword is custom sword or something like that. It is the only one of its kind and will probably end up becoming the new Angel Halo. Armor is normal stuff, but people who play VN obviously know about Enrikan shirt, and like the sword, it can become stronger and stronger, though it is not unique. Both Custom Sword and Enrikan Shirt have the most synthesis stages so far.
Sword will always have “Custom” in it, so there you go.
I already knew about the sword…. its the shirt that i didnt know about nor did i even recall its presence in the vn…. then again its been years since i played lol… So…. Where can i go to turn the Enrikan Shirt ++++ into the Enrikan Beirun so I can turn it into Pandemonium???
You see i was initially thinking this was going to work like the vn did… you help the plants but the plants start harming the insects and then you fight the plants to make them stop so the whole thing can be resolved… which…. obviously was not the case here… whooops
Sorry… wrong location for that post… I need to stop trying to talk in two threads at once lol
This will probably piss you off since it is so hidden in plain sight. Elf Queen area, the elf and fairy standing next to each other directly to your right when you teleport to the Elf Queen.
Left, sorry. My bad.
Hey you mentioned Halo Night Custom. I currently have Fractal Night Custom. Where do I go for the Halo upgrades?
I am not sure, but I would assume, that in the village on the snow continent.
(I have tried avoiding spoilers, and tried not to describe their appearances too much)
Hey, I tried reading some of the Japanese names, and I would like to make a few suggestions about them:
メイ/Mei: I think “May” might sound better. I believe it bears considering that she’s from Succubus Village and that “Mei” sounds a bit oriental.
アンフィル/Amphil: Considering what she looks like, would you think that “Unfill” is more fitting? When you look at her, you can that there’s nothing inside her; it’s like she’s a husk or the outer shell. Besides, don’t you think Amphil sounds a little amphibian? I suspect very few would agree that she’s a frog.
リボ・リボ/Libo-Libo: I googled her name, and found things like Ribonucleic acid (RNA), Ribonuclease (RNase), Ribose, Ribozyme, etc. I find it very likely that her name’s related to RNA and DNA. If you look at her H-scene, you can see how she entwines closely with Luka, almost like a DNA strand.
ジェライラ/Jerraira: The “Raira” part of her name could be “Lyra”. I believe the lyra part makes very much sense if you consider her outer appearance. My suggestion would be Jelyra.
Sorry, I mistyped Jellaila as Jerraira
Now, I’m very curious about the Chimera Beast and AD-5, Q-5, S-2 and A-3.
I’m quite sure you’re not wrong, though (especially with Jelyra). In my own translation files her name was Jelyra as well, even though it’s Google Translated. “Unfill” simply looks somewhat weird though and Libo-Libo… well, yeah.
I agree that Unfill is a little weird. However, I believe that level of weirdness suits her thematically, considering what her race is.
Oh, and Libo-Libo… Sorry, I didn’t include my actual suggestion. My suggestion is Ribo-Ribo, as in, the first four letters from Ribonucleic.
Right, one, two things after I looked at the files (I’ll not cover everything here, maybe go back to look at it later)
> Shouldn’t “Elyciel” be actually “Elysiel” after the Elysium flower? Then again, “ciel” is french for “sky”, so it’s not like it isn’t off at all.
> Same goes for “Heliel”, since she consists mainly out of hair, I guess it’s “Heriel” (which is also her image’s name, but those are sometimes wrong as well)
Alciel & Uranus are fine though.
> For the Frog Girls, their names are listed as two despite being actually three (it includes the purple one not being found in the wild).
> Bloom is also somewhat strange considering it’s the name of the Bromine Girl, and Bromine smells pretty awful (I’m aware it has another meaning, but it simply looks strange).
> The Chimeras… well. I’m not happy with Q-5, but you did a good job for the rest. I need to look it up myself.
The rest is pretty much decent. There are some strange differences regarding the Original VN vs. Paradox (like Kyoryuu Giant Dragon or Lencubus Rencubus), but it’s not that of an issue, I guess.
Where do you find Heriel? I can’t seem to get her spawn at the tartarus or the temple ruins, not sure if I’m even looking at the correct place.
Heriel is in the Temple Ruins 2F & 3F.
On 1F, you find Valkyrie & Cupid instead.
Heriel is in the last dungeon – the Ilias Temple Ruins on 2F and 3F.
I unzipped it, said syntax errors on some things.
Ran it, it seemed like it worked, it created the spare copy of the game in the /out/ folder.
BUT only the title on the game window is translated, menus and everything else still in Japanese.
Not sure if my experience is a unique issue on my end or not. Back to text hooker + auto translator for me!
Open the file: MGQ PARADOX ENGLISH
Here works perfect
https://prnt.sc/fqnf19
Yes, I can read instructions perfectly well.
I am saying that for me the zip file gave syntax errors and the game.exe in the out folder, which is also the shortcut, ONLY has the game window’s label translated.
I can tell I clicked the right game.exe (or the shortcut) because the original game.exe still has an untranslated label on the window.
http://i.imgur.com/2Yrp3Gu.png
And before remarking “but you need applocale”, yeah, I play Japanese games on my system just fine, I’ve got that covered. In fact, I’ve already beaten Paradox Part 2, Ilias route at least. It’s just a LOT more convenient to not have to scroll through skills 1 at a time and wait for the translator when using more obscure skills.
Got the same issue. Doesn’t work either.
Right, I got it to work thanks to some guy in Monster Girl Games General #134.
Thanks a lot, if you read that.
> Enemy and character names (although anyone you’ve recruited will still be in Japanese for now)
T_T
Why was I so hasty with recruiting the girls I wanted?
Anyway, good job on that patch.
Question. Can I delete the normal version of the game? I say it because I see that in the folder “Out” is already the game with the patch, completely independent of the original [Or so I think]. I say it because, now the folder weighs 9GB and if it is not already necessary the original folder of the game, then I delete it.
And another question, – sorry for my curiosity – through this new patch method, it is no longer necessary to have to reinstall the game in order to install the next update that you do or will still be necessary?
But I’m retiring for now.
You can delete the original. You won’t need it again.
I keep getting eeror after i use game exe path
https://s26.postimg.org/byf3lzfu1/Untitled.png
Oh yeah, I have a question for those who have been playing Part2. Do any of the old monsters get new scenes? Was really disappointed that some only had 1 scene that was the same as their loss scenes.
The only old monster that gets new scenes is priestess, i think.
Huh. That’s a shame.
Promestein and Illias both get another scene, I’m not sure about Alice.
Not surprised that Ilias got another one, since she only had a whopping one scene in Part 1 despite being a main heroine.
I’m disappointed that Sonya gets nothing new outside of the loss scenes. I want something new with normal Sonya too 😛
@Dj Quinn
Yeah, I was hoping for more from Sonya too. At least one new request scene would’ve been nice. It’s gonna suck so much if she only gets one in Part 3.
So what are the Update Files? Do I need those? Is that version 2.02? ‘Cause I can’t find a download link for that version anywhere so it would be neat if that was the case.
Man, this is all way too complicated for my tiny brain. Guess I’ll give it a shot.
Dargoth, does this,
{For best results and greater chances of future compatibility, I recommend using 2.02. However, if you only have 2.00 or 2.01 and don’t want to download another 2.31GB, you should be fine with the older versions for now.}
mean that we will be missing some events or cg or bug fixes that were in the 2.02 patch after all? Or is this more about potential errors between patch and game?
Never mind, I see the patch rb is in the file, so any new things in the 2.02 patch are likely in Dargoth’s patch. So you probably were talking about potential errors between your released patch and the version.
A couple bug fixes need 2.02. No, I’m not sure which ones. You probably won’t encounter them anyway.
For some reason, my files in the original game are in Japanese, but the translator is showing ????????? on some files
hey guys, i was wondering if anyone could give me a hand,
im a little confused with the versions…
——————-
“Note: This patch is technically compatible with versions 2.00-2.02 of Paradox and potentially with future versions as well. For best results and greater chances of future compatibility, I recommend using 2.02. However, if you only have 2.00 or 2.01 “”
——————-
Ok so im guessing i had an out of date chapter 2 (v2.01.00) from looking at this post,
so i logged into DLsite and clicked download,,,
but the game comes up “v2.02.01”
is this the most up to date version of chapter 2
(Downloaded 02/07/2017)
Yes, 2.02.01 is the latest. There is no 2.02.00.
I don’t know what I did wrong but it’s still Japanese. I followed the instructions to the letter. Didn’t shut off any of the programs until they told me. Everything ran smoothly. I used version 2.01. Can’t get my hands on 2.02 sadly. And it’s still in Moonrunes. I tried the English shortcut. Tried running it from the out folder. With an without save. Nothing. Just a bunch of chex mix.
CORRECTION: It seems the town names in the teleport list are translated. But nothing else.
So it did work. Just not completely.
Bummer. Oh well. Guess I’ll just wait for the next patch. Game ain’t gonna go anywhere.
Same, although I’m using 2.02 the only translated parts seem to be the teleport town names, and my character names.
So it’s not an issue with the version. Then I wonder what I’m doing wrong.
Alright, I figured it out. Thanks to Skuya who pointed me to a dude on Monster Girl Games General #134. For some reason when you unpack the files(at least with WinRAR) the Japanese text in the Scripts folder turns to gibberish. This happens quite a bit to me with various games. I can never figure out why. Sometimes not even changing my locale fixes it.
The dude Skuya pointed to posted a Mega link to a repacked zip file of the patch that didn’t have this issue. When I used that to patch the game it worked perfectly. At least for now. Might still be some issues. But at least the title screen, skills and so on are all translated now.
Hope this helps other wayward souls such as myself.
Do you have a Japanese language pack installed? Without one, Japanese text will often turn to gibberish. If you haven’t, just search “Japanese language pack for [insert your operating system here]”.
When I search for ”Japanese Language Pack Window 7” the first link says you get it through Windows Update. I can’t find it there. Maybe it’s because I’m using Windows 7 Professional. Bummer.
Tried quite a few times and got no progress, however thankfully the new 7.ZIP file which was uploaded worked first try. Thanks a lot Dargoth!
Well, I’m glad you got it working. Now go get some monster poon, brother.
Dumb question…. how do you see what version you have? Also is there a way to update the version without having to download the entire game over again from dlsite? My connection isn’t very reliable
Start MGQ Paradox and look into the top left corner. Your version should be shown there.
And then the second part of the question… is there a way to somehow update the version without redownloading the entire game from dlsite?
Nope.
So if I bought this game on a guest account that gets removed after about a week or so, I can’t update unless I wait for a torrent that has the latest version? I could have sworn I updated part 1 through Totoro’s MGQ Paradox official site, but I can’t for the life of me find it anymore.
Also the whole recruit names staying english or japanese thing…. whats up with that? Just curious.
The names are part of your save file. We’ve got a script to fix that, but it’s not in the game yet.
Dargothhhh I have a requestttt pleaseee…. Aside from menu items… can one of the first things translated please be Amiras dialogues when you ask her for information about what to do next in the pocket castle? Also the request board in the pocket castle? PRETTY PLEASE?????
It didn’t works in my 2.00 version, all the text is still in jap 🙁
Thanks Dargoth and co!
I want to ask something. How do I carry on my save?
Well I would like to know it as well
Copy and paste your save folder. That’s it.
Where do we find information btw as to what changes are made between eachupdated version of p2?
At the moment, just some bug fixes and some monster getting their recruitment rate upped.
im looking for the recruitable bf update x.x
That’s not out yet nor is the new version of the LOC update out.
So i cant recruit the new Battle Fucker from this chapter?
In a planned later update of it, yes.
don’t suppose ttr let on about when those might come?
Not to my knowledge.
thanks dargoth
Thanks for your hard work. A bit sad that part 1 will probably not be fully translated untill part 3 is out with the way you seem to kick it down the priority line with part 2 out but i’ll take what I can get. Thanks again
Didn’t Rogue recently join though? Might mean it gets done quicker now.
…
it might be wise jumping around …
because complete translation for 3rd season means,1-3 all get translated …
(considering that annoying NG+ makes you start all over from 1st season story again)
I really think they should let you choice NG+, from the start 1st season or at the start of 2nd season game …
Thanks Dargoth, just tried out the patch and it works perfectly, and as I thought before it even upgrades the game to 2.02!
Hope then next patch with all currently translated lines comes out ASAP.
I’m also having the same problems with zip errors
and then the patch not translating anything
don’t wortk! =/ i have to patch a untranslated merged version of part 1?
When closing GameSelector window when finished, cmd.exe say:
‘cscript’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
‘xcopy’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
What i’m supposed to do?
Stop using Windows 98 or playing the game through an emulator? Or maybe your environment variables are fucked up.
Assuming the GameSelector part worked, you can copy the Translation Files into /Script/ and then run Ytinasni.RpgMaker.Translator.exe yourself. Then copy the Update Files into /out/
So simple ^^. Thanks a lot Dargoth. (and i’m not on Window 98 but 7 by the way, don’t know why i have issues)
yea I’m having problems too. Patch goes through, takes a few minutes, all the windows tell me to hit any key, I do. Only thing translated is the new title screen picture, everything else except for my parties names are in japanese
Im running version 2.02.01 of the game
After you hit “any key”, the other program window start running. You have to wait until that is done and then both windows will say “press any key” and they’ll close after you hit it. If you close the windows after the first time, you’re stopping the patch halfway.
*close on their own after you hit it.
If the windows don’t close by hitting a key, the program isn’t done yet.
*by hitting a key when the prompt comes up
Dang lack of an edit button 😛
yea I’m waiting for it to say hit any key, and then I hit a random key and they close on their own.
[IMG]http://i67.tinypic.com/vg4gnn.png[/IMG]
Try the 7z version.
http://tinypic.com/r/vg4gnn/9
Whops
Try the 7z version or extracting the scripts with a different zip program. I’m guessing the Japanese filenames got garbled.
Sadly same issue even with 7z I’ll keep trying diffrent stuff, but if it doesn’t work no worries, hopefully by next patch all the small errors will be fixed.
Ahhhhhhh It works! I didn’t see the new 7z download you added till now! It works, thank you so much Dargoth. <3
Hey Dargoth, there’s a MGQ Discord server that keeps track of the game, as well as posts all your updates for it on their page. Would you mind stopping by, maybe talking to the admins if you do? Here’s the link if you are interested: https://discord.gg/0151LZSlG5xghlZtE
Can you add in a new link? Or if the server is dead and gone, then we should make a new one!
Anyone has v2.02 link , i got v2.01 …
so I followed the steps but nothing changed going to the new icon that say the english version i clciked on t and nothing happened except telling me the shortcut lead no where…help i wanna play >.<
why Luka defense ability is in jap after i use this patch,, did i fuk up something?
but, pretty sure the patch ran smoothly :/
Can you recruit Dargoth in this game? I’m sure he’ll be a welcome addition to the party. Maybe there’ll be a hidden super boss named Rogue.
umm, is this a bug? (Spoiler)
I defeated Yamata No Orochi, she joined me and now I have 9 party members?
Nope. After you get the ship, your party is expanded to 10. There’s a later event that expands it to 12. It also carries over to a NG+, so you won’t have to wait to have a 12 person party if you do one.
what later event
It’s either after you stop the 4 invasions OR after you track down and defeat to 4 monster clans that invaded and then talk to the 4 monarchs of the invaded cities.
…
Yep, it’s quite useful since 3 type EXP can be shared to all party member, even without appearing in battle …
@Dargoth
Fun question, with this new patch procedure, are you looking to utilize this to allow for incremental updates to the translations so people don’t need to keep an archive of the raw game?
Yes.
So um, the patch ain’t working for me. It gets to the very end and then has an error about the RJSS301.dll could not be found.
Same here.
Oh dear, could someone translate this real quick. It’s an error of some sort I’m getting when trying to save my game. Not sure if this means it’s going to be a corrupted file.
The time and party update on the save file list but not the image.
http://i.imgur.com/cRcR2B8.png
Thanks.
It just means it couldn’t take the screenshot when you tried to save. Your save (including the save you just made) is fine. Close the game and reopen it and try to save and it should take the screenshot. If it still has a problem, try restarting your computer. Either way, it doesn’t hurt your save.
Thanks, was worried since my last save was several hours ago.
Happened to me in 2.00 and 2.01 and freaked me out at first too
…
usually get conflict with other viewing program (Ex : ACDSee, or FireFox) or not enough free Memory, increasing your PC Memory might fix it …
You’re the man Dargoth
This is too complicated can’t patch it xD
Has anyone encountered anything in the game related to those pictures in the trailer about Hild and the masked baby? Hild didn’t really seem to do anything significant in this part, so unless I missed something, it seems sort of weird that they were so prominent in the trailer. Maybe they’re supposed to be indicative of something in Part 3, like that Sonya picture at the end of the Part 1 PV?
Sorry for bringing up a simple problem, but in the sexual scenes of the normal(untranslated) game, you can press up on the keyboard to view all the previously said texts and sentences. Much like what you could do in the VNs.
Yet after translating using the patches, whenever you press up on the keyboard, it shows the outline for the words but no actual words, just a blank screen. This has been happening since the original paradox game, but I was hoping it would have been fixed by now.
I never even knew that was a feature or that we had broken it.
Wait you didn’t notice know about that lol XD that’s kinda funny
The text log is a feature I never use in visual novels, and one that for some reason likes to break when you shoehorn English text into Japanese games. What’s the point of having a log ONLY for h-scenes, anyway? If you don’t remember what a line said, just advance a few lines ahead and you’ll be guaranteed to see the same line repeated.
I find it helpful when I accidentally skip over dialogue by clicking twice or something.
And honestly, I only need it in h-scenes. At least when it comes to visual novels. I usually skip to the good part in those anyway. Who cares about the story of ninja chicks or magical girls fighting demons? I can watch a dozen anime that tell that better. Just let me get to the tentacles, dammit. XD
Though I also had no idea this was a feature in Paradox. Among other things. I was complaining to a friend a while back about there not being an auto-scroll button. But recently I found out there is one. Now if only the text was faster. Nothing’s ever perfect. 😛
Well I am glad I brought it up then. Also when reading such scenes as these, in my opinion it is better to see the actions that lead up to the climax, then just the climax itself. Plus, you might find certain lines or paragraphs even hotter when read together, and may accidently skip them.
It adds extra details and tidbits that you can enjoy as a whole, like you can re-read all the teasing and movements before, during, or after the climax. Just a thought. Anyway thanks for listening.
Ok i am still at the beginning area or should i say where should i go after i am done beating the gyrados at the marine HQ?
There is a small town on the north of the marine HQ and what should i do?
That paste bin Walkthrough are shits, he did miss most of the content in the game
What i learn from this chapter 2: Illias route and alice route (so does the monster u can be recruited from both routes are different). For example alice route can recruit pirate mermaid girl, In illias route sea horse girl and marine fish general girl (you cant recruit pirate mermaid girl in illias route)
Whether you side with the Navy or the Pirates has nothing to do with your route. Just like with Lily and Lucia, you can side with either of them on both routes.
Then what should i do after i am done with marine hq?
There is must be some side quest before go to the grand noah castle
You go to the town, fail to read moonspeak, and leave for grand noah. The pastebin didn’t really miss much, he just skipped a lot of details that are important to know what to do and didn’t tell us how to side with the navy. Either way, you can always join either side
I cannot for the life of me get this to work at all i keep getting a error and it wont translate at all, i tried 10 times and follwed the steps each time
Dargoth please make the translation patch that can be done with rpg maker all decrypter, It is more easier than that ytnasni thing. just like on this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UCWnSzQ0l4
keeps saying error:Exception of type sysytem out of memory exception was thown
Same thing happened to me. I guess we need to upgrade our RAM. Mine is 2GB.
https://files.catbox.moe/fz25eu.JPG
This is just a 2d game. Why does it need more RAM?
patch success, but after patch my crit rate can’t stack any more, battle master + 15% and ability +30% but crit rate still 30%, the same thing with evasion
That is why dargoth better make this patch like the old patch (MGQP 1 translation patch)
Ytnasni is complicated, rpg maker all decrpyer is more easier to apply the patch
I think that’s how evasion and crit are supposed to work now.
DarGOD
Damn follow the directions but it didnt work .. when i play the game in the out file its still all japanese help lol
do you mean even the names and the skills/ items that you got from part 1 are in japanese, or text when you talk to an npc? The first would be mean something went wrong with your install, the 2nd would be intended, they are still working on patching over the script for text.
Dargoth, EVA scenes in part 1 are not translated!!!!! I don’t get why you’re working on part 2 when EVA ISN’T TRANSLATED IN PART 1 Xd
May have taken longer but this was alot more reliable of a method than the old way that usually took 2 to 3 tries before getting 100% translated. Thanks man
so you got the game working then?
Yeah followed the instructions word for word and have my com on Japanese Locale
Dargoth, I don’t understand your choice of translation for a few of the Job names. You translated 神銃士 and 魔弾の射手 as God’s Eye and Devil’s Eye respectively, but that doesn’t make sense? Something like Divine Gunner and Magic Marksman would be closer to the originally meaning. I’m not sure how you got “eye” in either of their names.
Also, you translated マスターソーサラー as Master Swordcerer? I can understand you changing some names like Item Master and Library Lord, but shouldn’t this remain as just Master Sorcerer?
Or rather, Magic Bullet Marksman. Not just Magic Marksman. Wish I could edit my replies, but eh.
I don’t know man. I haven’t translated shit since the game came out. I HAVE spent like 80 hours writing and editing scripts, performing file comparisons and merging, and other realllllly fun things like that. The names of everything — characters, places, jobs, whatever — were rush jobs done by different people. They’ll change.
Yeah, that’s nice to know.
Well, I trusted you’d do a once-over things when you finally shift over to translating the text, but I just wanted to confirm. Whoever translated those names, though. Lessens my confidence in whoever you recruited to help out.
Love you all dargoth and friends. I will continue to wait patiently for more translation. ^_^
Hopefully everything will be translated before the end of this year.
…
the 1st season need almost 2 year for full story translation …
also Dargoth still struggling in script section …
(I know it’s hard since I already check the script beforehand)
Thank you so much for your work 😀
Hmmm is it just me or do not all the companions not show up in the pocket castle?
Is there like a few floors I’m not seeing?
You might be thinking about the ship, you have to use the maid to get there.
…
Maid in your castle, 2nd choice from bottom …
The translation works great! Thank you! 🙂
It is SO relieving that I don’t have to use Translation Aggregator for every item, skill and ability, especially when re-assigning abilities after job/race change! It’s a lot more pleasant experience with the translation.
Finally got it to work. Just needed to install a jp languarge pack (thought I had done that previously). For all Windows 10 users out there: Settings > Time & language > Region & language > Add a language. You can add a new lp in 1 click
I am glad to see the release but will wait for early updates and more English to get into part 2, although the Lilith Sisters are expected to be in NG+ part 3 later this year so could be a big MGQ story line to follow 🙂 Just wait till they meet the 1/2 Seraph with even more skills who could be traveling with Tamamo at the time.
Anyone know where to get the item for the Machinist advance job?
San ilia after stopping the mermaids
Really? Because I am past that part and already talked to the king and I didn’t get it, or is it from someone else?
Beat all the Queens that are in hiding around the world, then talk to Queen Noah, Pope, Sabasa King, Grangold King. They each give you Job Change Items.
Yeah I did that but still says I don’t have the item for the advance machinist job, unless it’s another advance machinist job
Talk to everyone in the lab in the san ilia castle
Alright I know I didn’t do that, thanks
Does anyone know if the 3 girls you fight when you went back in time to get the orb from the monster lord’s castle are recruitable? If you can how? Thank you.
Someone mentioned that you need to have the Witch Black Alice from Alice’s route in your party before fighting them. Not confirmed though.
They aren’t recruitable. The library doesn’t list them as potential party members (on the third page every enemy in the enemy section it list if you’ve recruited them or not, and if it doesn’t have that at all, they’re not recruitable as of the current Part).
Well then, (SPOILER!) by this logic Alma Elma is recruit-able in this part. Hope I didn’t miss her, if you/anyone finds out how to get her please respond to this.
That’s because she joins temporarily. She’s the only temporary party member in Part 2 that can’t rejoin.
What if……you recruit her, then start NG+ 😛 JK doubt it works, thanks.
That ain’t how NG+ works in this game 😛
It’s not like this is Chrono Trigger/Cross ;P
But…. but…. 4 heavenly knights :c
It’s like the other NG+ from Ecstacy where you can have a knight with you along the way right now, maybe in part 3 you can get them to stay.
Thanks for all the hard work. It’s amazing that I get to enjoy these games largely thanks to your hard work. It’s appreciated.
Not sure if I have done it wrong, or what, but I’m using the v2.00.00 version of the game, and when the patch “finished”, the only things that were translated were the application name, the main menu image (not the text) and the string that says “Load which file?” when loading a savefile. Everything else was still in JP.
It also changed my version number to v2.02.01 (the 01 I suppose is the patch version, since it was back on P1).
Not sure how to proceed.
Sounds like the same problem others are having: your OS is turning the japanese file names in the scripts into gibberish. Try the 7zip file.
I need to find a real solution to this. Maybe a self-extracting archive?
As far as I’m aware, my laptop does support japanese characters, and while I can’t understand it, I at least can confirm it is not random gibberish. The only thing that shows as random gibberish is the clean version of P2’s application name. Everything else is in working japanese.
And the .txt file inside the .7z version of the patch that says “If you see the name of this file in random gibberish, you’ll have a bad time.” is in japanese too.
the big problem is the command prompt is not affected by language packs so it is making gibberish on the output
I hadn’t realized that. Good to know.
I need some help with the Minotaur Sidequest.
The walkthrough isn’t of much use – it says I need to talk to Cerberus (I recruited her, so I guess I did that), then talk to the guy in the PUB. I didn#t find any PUB in Grand Noah only that resaurant with Liru, a Slime Girl and some others. Talked to everyone there, then went to the Minotaur Blacksmith. She didn’t give me the letter, so I thought I already got it and went to the Minotaur Guard in the castle. She wouldn’t let me in. Two choices, and neither one lets me enter. I’m sort of lost. Does anyone know what I did wrong?
The pub is in the upper left alley of Grand Noah (it can be hard to find if you don’t know it’s there). Talk to the guy with red hair in it and then the Minotaur in the black smith and then the Minotaur at the end of the cave leading to the Minotaur castle, and THEN you can get into the castle.
I remember having to talk with a red-haired guy inside the pub in Grand Noah. It has a pub, it’s just hidden somewhere in an alley I think on the left side of the town, if I’m not mistaken. There should be two red-haired guys, I talked to both, then went to the blacksmith and the Minotaur girl gave me the letter.
Gosh, I found it. The problem was me being unable to distinguish a Pub from a restaurant. Thanks, guys.
…
Pub and restaurant is quite different …
In Pub, you can buy drink and alcohol …
In restaurant, you can buy cooked type food (great for gift)…
I can’t get the red orb from the elf princess, i’ve already done all the shrines in yamatai and talked to the elf queen, but I still can’t get the elf princess to spawn. I’m at a standstill with the game.
Possible Reasons:
Make sure Dullahan is in your party when you talk to mayor.
After you defeat Shirohebi, you need to talk to Queen Elf one more time.
Princess Elf is on the bottom floor right side of Snake Shrine.
Anyone know if elf princess will eventually be recruitable? I want her…. and usually characters with full cg/portraits are recruitable at some point or just very important to the story….
…
probably not in this season … yet …
Anyone able to list all BFs and locations? I want to get the Advanced Prostitute classes, but hard to whether I got all 35 BFs.
…
! THIS ! …
I also wonder where all the location … or probably going to be added again ?
Here’s a list of all 36: http://monstergirlquest.wikia.com/wiki/All_Battle_Fuckers
…
Thank you, much appreciated …
Does anyone know how to get job change items for fist user and gambler?
Finish all rounds for first option in Arena for fist. 3000 coins in Pocket Castle casino for gambler.
I recommend that you spend a little time and get Aegis shields for your group. Best shields in game; they have magic evasion AND they boost ATT and MAG stats. With a little pratice, it gets easier to score 777 on slots.
Hey Dargoth, is the process to make your own manual patch the same in part 1 or is their anything different.
Essentially the same, with the caveat that the 2.02 update replaces a missing image and adds a patch.rb that overrides a few script functions. Oh, and there’s the English title screen image too. You’ll have to copy those files into the /out/ directory after running Translator.exe.
The batch file I provided is just performing the whole process for you. You can open up RUNME.bat in a text editor and do the commands yourself.
I’m just curious as to how much of pt 1 is translated. We talking 80%, with battle dialogue, etc or just story, majority of items, and a few names?
None of the dialogue is translated right now because the scripts are still messed up in various ways.
…
take your time carefully as long as you need …
as Programmer, I know how hard handling mess up Script …
do your best and don’t give up …
part 1 was at 75%
Dargoth i have a question why is the patch different from your last ones is it because your using a different program or something else?
Think he said he was doing it this way so you don’t need a fresh copy of the game everytime you wanna patch it.
Same program. I was hoping this one would be more flexible. Well, it is, but it introduced a lot of other issues I wasn’t expecting.
Well hopefully it can be fixed maybe im doing something wrong but i swear i followed all the instructions and no go
does anyone know how do I get the orb from Queen Elf? I was following this guide https://pastebin.com/yKjNkSME but got stuck on 107. the Princess Elf isn’t there 🙁
Have you talked to all four royalties after defeating all Queens? (Grangold King in the storeroom, Pope, Noah Queen, Sabasa Throne)
If yes, did you make sure to go back and talk to Queen Elf again? Make sure to repeat the conversations a few times to be sure.
yes, i did all of that
Perhaps you may have missed a Queen? Which ones have you beaten?
I’ve beaten all 4 of them, talked to all four royalties after defeating them, then talked to the Queen Elf, went to Yamatai, defeated the snake lady, talked to the Queen Elf once more. The Princess Elf isn’t showing near the snake shrine though.
Ok, I finally got it to work. Who could have known, that that quest to save that bear monster thingy from Yamata-no-Ororchi (or smth like that) cave would be THAT important for the story. I died a little bit.
That bear monster is a tanuki, by the way. 😛
Might also need Sonya in the party before you find the Princess Elf, since she is important for the event.
Nah you can not have all of the main characters in your team and their dialoge will still pop up
heh, beat leviathan today…had no idea spamming dance invitation would work. Team was around level 28 on very hard…I figured someone has done better
I beat her around Lv32 on Hell Mode. Still, I bet someone has done way better.
It seems like new dialogue has been added in some earlier bits. What I’ve noticed so far is that Papi finally has dialogue for when you bring her into the boss battle against her. There’s also now an alternate scene for when you defeat Nanabi, instead of the game just treating it as if you’ve lost. Hope you guys can catch this stuff.
Really? That’s interesting… Maybe we’ll even use this mechanic to travel back in time and correct our mistakes?
…
WOW, that will seriously increase NG+ value for player …
thanks for mentioning it …
Try fighting Gob with Gob in the party…. She seems familiar
Oh, that was already there since Part 1. It was only Papi who didn’t have any mirror dialogue until now.
Will dark succubus (Natasha?) join Luka in the future if you ally with her in the Succubus Village?
If you sided with Lily (and possibly also done the Luddite sidequest for Lily), she should join you when you side with her in the village.
Thanks for the explanation!
…
Choose Natasha side, bring Lilim too (the tentacle sorcerer which vote to spread tentacle magic)
anyone who want to know the dialogue, PM me at ULMF, it’s quite spoiler …
Does anyone know if you can get the Succubus Witch in this part? My favorite monster, and I know the CG’s are in the files, but can’t find her ingame.
Also looking for the giantess girl, one of the few others I can’t seem to find.
Succubus Witch is in the poison swamp, after you recruit Cassandra and Emily. Giant Girl is in the Queen Elf area, rare encounter.
Thanks!
Can you recruit the Sea Horse Girl, and Sea Slug on the same play through if you sided with the pirates? They still show up in random encounters and you can raise their affinity, but I wasn’t sure if it was set up to prevent them from actually joining, or just made it more unlikely.
no
They join via event if you side with Navy, like the two that join you from Pirate side, so they won’t join from random encounters.
Does anyone know how to get the last orb? I got Blue, Green, Yellow, Purple and silver ones, but can’t seem to find the last one 🙁
I belive I am missing a red one.
Talk to Queen Elf, do Yamatai Quest (Specifically, go stop Shirohebi’s rebellion like in VN), go talk to Queen Elf again, go back to Snake Shrine, you should see a Princess Elf, go into building north, go to the right. You should get Red Orb and a lot of nice stuff.
Make sure you have Dullahan in your party before you talk to the mayor. He is the guy in the northmost building in the first part of town. The sign outside should be yellow.
You don’t need the dullahan in your active party, just to have recruited her.
I just can’t seem to get princess elf to spawn for the red orb, beaten all 4 queens and talked to all 4 royals. Defeated shirohebi and talked to queen elf again after the fight but the princess just never seems to show up in or outside the snake shrine.
yeah, same problem here. Am I just not worthy or smth?
Ok, I finally got it to work. Who could have known, that that quest to save that bear monster thingy from Yamata-no-Ororchi (or smth like that) cave would be THAT important for the story. I died a little bit.
Ok, so I:
– Got v. 2.00 for Part 2
– Downloaded your English Release for Part 2
– Ran RUNME.bat and used the Part 2 V.2.00 in a different directory to avoid the clutter
But whether I open “MGQ Paradox English.exe” or “Game.exe” in the /out directory, I still get Japanese. Am I missing something?
This is a very common problem. If some files in folder Translation files->Scripts are in gibberish (they are in japanese) , then you need to set your computer to japanese locale.
Is that it?
Because when I open what I have for Part 1 with the recent patch for it, it’s still English translated, even when my locale is US.
im playing part 1 and and made a holy knight and at lvl 9 got great defense witch does defend reduces damage taken to 25% instead of 50% should-int the number% be switch or im i missing something.
No, that’s correct. Defend reduces damage taken to 50% with great defend it reduces damage take to 25%
So you take 1/2 with normal defend and 1/4 with the great defend.
Note that it says “to” not “by”
An error came up in plantcect village when talking to Smith besides mermaid merchant an error pops up.
Whew! Just beat MGQ:Paradox RPG Part 2! Looking back, it’s pretty amazing how long it took.
During my playthrough, I notíced something odd – possibly a bug. For some reason, I wasn’t able to equip two weapons anymore. No matter what job or what accessory, the offhand slot always remained as “Shield” -slot. It made me sad.
And now dual-wielding’s working again. Weird. o_O
someone who understand a little can tell me the trait pasive of the nekomata?
Nekomata:
Trait
Fighting “Nyanko”
Can always equip fists.
Can always use “Unarmed” and “Thievery” skills.
Increased power of “Unarmed” skills
Increased Critical and Evasion rates.
thanks 🙂 neko is one of my favourites
easily replaceable
Thanks. just curious,is there a doc that has the trait descriptions for part 2, or is this from your understanding of japanese?
I looked her up in-game and used Translator Aggregator to translate her trait. Having some basic knowledge of Japanese helps me understand which parts are their own words and create substitutions for them.
Actually, I’ve made a very long list of substitutions for my Translator Aggregator. I wonder if that’s a file that can be shared?
Very nice! TY
anyone fought gnosis? or do you even get a chance to fight her?
You fight her in Esta on the Alice Route and Zion on the Illias Route.
Yeah, she is beatable. Not sure if she was fighting seriously though.
Just gonna point out that if you look at them in the monsterpedia or refight list there is a (1) by their name you know what that means right?
I am so excited to play this game, although I am having trouble trying to find version 2.02, though However, I’ll try to wait it out…and eventually it should pop up on the net.
The patch automatically updates it to the latest version
Wait, do you mean Dargoth’s Patch? Seriously?! I was trying to wait it out since apparently 2.02 has some bug fixes and event updates that part 2.01 does not have, but has dargoth indeed integrated the updates of the game thus far in the patch, and not only the english translation?!
I thought that is what he said before, but his patch notes up top don’t really make that clear, so i’m not so sure anymore. I mean if it did there would be no need to say that it works best with 2.02 would there?
Anyways, you can find 2.02 on the mggq thread… i think #136 on 4chan.
It definitely does. I have 2.00 version, but the translated one is 2.02.01. Even if it didn’t work, you can always update it here https://bitbucket.org/dargothtranslations/mgq-paradox-2/downloads/?tab=branches just download the official_update_files and put them in your paradox’s folder.
Then what am I waiting for?!! Amazing! Kudos to Dargoth for integrating both main and english patch!! *Rushes to find that 2.01 version that he found lying around.*
The English patch gives you everything from 2.02 except for a couple map updates. The translation program doesn’t support adding/removing entire events so you’ll actually need the 2.02 version of the game for those fixes.
does the version update via official_update_files on your bitbucket include those map fixes?
No.
Aw darn. Welp, back to searching the Interwebs. Perhaps ULMF will be kind to me again.
Found the link on 4chan mggg #137 for the version 2.02
Anyone know if we are actually supposed to have a boss fight with quetzalcoatl or tezcatlipoca? if so how do we trigger it? because it seems like there should be such a fight for them…… and yes i did encounter them in the colliseum… but i feel like they were supposed to be fought somewhere else first…
You have to make peace between the Plants and Insects, its one of the options
Third option for plant, third option for bees, second option for plants. Do that and you are set.
welllll i know what im doing differently once i get beck around to the ng+ for my second run of p2 on the (true)alice path….
Been seeing some theories on the Internet about the relationship between Black Alice and Heinrich, starting from the first Paradox PV, and now with Heinrich and Witch Alice.
There is a very interesting script where if you recruit Witch Alice and try to face Black Alice in the Monster Lord Castle while she is in your party, Witch Alice will teleport away, which may be that she is the actual Black Alice in reality. When you recruit Heinrich and face Black Alice while he is in our party, Black Alice will be away and only her teddy bear is there.
I wonder if anyone knows what exactly each of the two say when you try enter the throne room? If this confirms the theories, it would be absolutely delicious.
AliceMagia or whatever says I need to go for a walk and leaves the party for a bit
Dargoth, since it was revealed that some monster girls are actually named after their own race as a tradition (I forgot which conversation this was, but it should be in a conversation with a Queen monster), you should change Kitsu’s name to Kitsune.
Just beat the game. So… any new stuff in LoC?
Not yet released >___>
Can anyone tell me if the dog girl side quest and the rabbit girl sidequest can actually be finished? if so how? Also where are dog girls i might not have found to talk to yet?
http://monstergirlquest.wikia.com/wiki/Pocket_Castle_Side_Quests
Can you recruit quetzalcoatl or tezcatlipoca?
Use library and look at the third page of the monster book. With the exception of Alma Elma who cannot be recruited, those with “Recruited: XXX” can be recruited.
So can anyone tell me about any job change items that are easily missed? I beat the game and still have a few jobs requiring jobchange items so i wished to know which ones i can still find in part two and which will be in part 3
Also can anyone tell me if there are any miss-able characters to recruit in part 2? like how in part one you could recruit all of the bfs, also the guard from illiasville, scat captain, panty sensei, samson from sabasa, and john from san ilia?
Have you talked to Amira yet? Rumour speaks of a house where a mysterious woman has been sighted. If you want a job change item, you should go there.
…Well, I’m telling that, but I’m pretty certain you went there straight after beating the game. That’s the only one I can think of.
As for recruitable monster girls, I’m struggling with two monster girls currently: Manta Ray Girl and an angel called “Ashiel” or something. Manta Ray Girl is a rare encounter on the open sea, but the angel I’m not sure about. I have to keep looking.
What does ashiel look like??
Alciel assuming that is it, is the big pink one with a giant tongue and 4 were angel bodies that come out of tentacle like appendages found in the last dungeon. She took me roughly 2 hours to recruit, I imagine her recruitment rate is obscenely low. If you haven’t updated the game, I’d so so to 2.0201 as Torotoro improved the use of various recruitment skills.
Definitely worth the recruitment though.
Just now I ran into Manta Ray Girl and caught her on the first shot. My strategy for recruitment is having Luka and Stella (The homeless battle fucker from the slums in part 1) as my talkers to up affinity to 100. Alice is there to use Weakening Dance/Time Warp Dance/Sparkle, in order to keep the opponent from getting too aggresive, while Shinifa is used for Song of Defense/Song of Energy to avoid running out of SP. (Due to Stella having issues with running out of SP for Ally Invitation at the worst moment)
Basically I work them up to 100 affinity, and when that happens I have Luka prepare the finishing blow, Stella throw in the Ally Invitation for the x3 recruit rate. I also swap out Alice for Lazarus, as I think (not sure) that the Godfather Job gave him Recruit +100%, but I put him on the active party in case that is needed in order for the ability to work. With that I try to maximise my recruit chances, making them extremely high. The amount of failed recruits that I have had under this strategy can be counted on my two hands still. That being said, given what people have been saying, I am surprised Manta Girl came quietly for me.
How do you recruit/fight Queen Alraune (alra priestess, but looks like the one in Part 3 of the original MGQ series)?
I’m talking about the ones named as “ev_a_emp” in the Graphics\Pictures folder.
You don’t fight her.
You get the base one from the plantsect village questline, and she get upgraded to the new versione during the queen alraune quest.
In order to see that CG you need to request her while she is in that form
(You can now switch form of some party members while they are in the castle like for Sara, Mefisto, Alra priest, not sure if others)
Dunno where to put it so:
there is an error in translation of Illias’s Angel Feathers skill, it says that the target is one foe when it’s AOE skill (it’s in “final part 1 translation” thing)
She has a skill named “Angel Feathers”? Like from Tales of Symphonia? 😀
Sorry for I sound stupid. I went the pirate route, got the dark rapier in the cave and the pirate flag from the Navy HQ. Where is bonnie in my pocket castle? I’ve looked everywhere I can think of and don’t see her or any of my new pirate girls.
She’s in her ship (which is Luka’s ship now as well). Go to the 2nd last option of the Pocket Castle Maid and teleport to the ship.
Oh Awesome thanks. I can’t read Japanese so had no idea the maid even had new options.
Does anyone know where to get the ultimate makina weapon? the level 10 makina master skill which costs 16SP
i see some dude says that you get 3 makina key items in platinum chests.
Hmm, well, I’m missing 3. However I have no idea where I could’ve missed those chests. I’ve found roughly 8, and just did a NG+ so I’m fairly sure I’ve checked all the main dungeons and such. I guess I’ll keep looking around.
If you are talking about the Hyperion, it is in an abandoned area with poison swamps and grave markers and a huge lone building. It is in the desert to the west of the Succubus Village and east of the third accessible Tartarus. However you have to go in there prepared to fight or with an ability to minimise encounters since its crawling with chimeras from part 3 of the VN. They are at the level of the archangels from alternate illiasville and can do some damage if you are not prepared. They are also extremely sturdy with over 120k hp each. They are recruitable though.
Now for my own Question. Is Godfather Lazarus different from the Lazarus we know or are they one and the same?
And now something else. Has ANYBODY finally found the Blade Scythe that has been MIA since part one or did Torotoro completely forget about it?
If you’re referring to the Beam Scythe, I found it in the ruins in which you chase after White Rabbit towards the end game. It’s in a platinum chest that is accessible by climbing two vines on the second screen from entering.
anyone got a save file? i have no clue were im at i cant remember what im supposed to do. and how the heck to i stop random encounters
If you don’t remember what you were doing, ask Amira. She keeps track of your adventure and any piece of information you come across.
Random encounters can either be stopped with ability “No Encounters” or an accessory.
thx a lot bro. appreciate it. and thank you too dargoth. that goes without saying
Still doens’t work for me, it only translates the title, i already download both versions.
Maybe it’s just me, but meh, i will just wait for 50% or more. im only posting just so you can check if there’s something wrong and you can fix it in future patchs.
just a question about the ship what will happen if your on some random island and you click give up by mistake is there a way to get your ship back?
Just harpy feather somewhere and you’ll ship’ll be nearby.
JRPG Update: 6/25/2017-7/2/2017 – The Guardian Acorn
[…] -Final translation Patch for Part 1 released. -Initial English patch released for Part 2. […]
i get the error in red “ERROR: HashedDataStore detected altered file” halp
That’s japanese for “You’re fucked”
seriously someone, dargoth help me out
Hvae you tried getting a clean copy of part 2 and moving your save files over?
got it working thanks
If that doesn’t work, try recovering an earlier save from an earlier date using Recuver. Make sure to get both save01.rvdata2 and Systemsave.rvdata2.
Also, to merge part 1 and 2, you move the graphics folder over ONLY. Nothing else.
I doubt there is, but is there a way to make the battle cut-ins activate on all skills? I love some of them so much that I often refuse to use moves that won’t activate the cut-ins.
Thanks for this 🙂 I am hoping to contribute after the git gets all merged into the master branch.
Question. I have seen that Archangel Ranael and Nagael from alternate Illiasvile got a huge buff. Does anybody know if they now have any noteworthy drops or if they are recuirtable?
With the exception of Alma Elma, page 3 in Monster Book in Library opton tells you if they are recruitable.
Well, technically she IS recruitable… not for long though.
I ask a lot of questions here, but seriously. Did they make it harder to recruit girls or something? I’ve killed 170 high minataurs, and 50 manta girl (Who is really hard to find.) With 300% recruit rate and 100 affinity, is this really bad luck or have other people had a hard time with recruiting in the past?
Get the newest patched one they increased the join rate on alot of the girls
Got Ocean (Manta girl) finally, after 5 hours of grinding. Was just having really bad luck, I was already using 2.02.01
Also, very useful trait for grinding Chaos Labyrinth. Seems to be a random chance to preemptively use an Ocean skill which hits all enemies, I’m currently getting 50K damage if it procs, so insta-killing most floor 1-200 enemies.
I had a lot more luck with the Manta Girl. Didn’t take too many tries to recruit her. I also found that the spawn rate was a lot higher for the in the area south of the Illias Continent, particularly in the are just west of the peninsula to the south of Pornof.
*for her
I am having issues finding the blue orb. I tried taking a guess of where it is based of the original trilogy meaning kraken would have it but that isn’t helping me as she is recruited. I have gone back to the area she was in, in the original trilogy and no luck there.
Just search ‘orb’ here https://pastebin.com/yKjNkSME this is a complete guide for part 2.
So I was looking atound ttrs special save file and I am curious… Does anyone know where to go to recruit the red haid jojo looking guy in the green clothes???? -must 100%-
Put Scat Captain in your party then go into his house in Pornof. He’ll join automatically.
thanks for the first translation hope the new classes get translated soon, working with google translate drawing signs is horrible slow to translate stuff =D
Really hating the drop rates in this one; trying to get all the items dropped by, stolen from, and what not for all the new enemies. Seems like the enemies with seed drops are a bit ridiculous. Easier to farm with in Chaos dungeon or using the rare item on death ability.
Latest news, plus talks about patches v2.10 and v2.20.

Please inform when updates released ~~☆☆☆♤♤♤♢♢♢♧♧♡♡♡~~
Huh. Looks like Chaos Labyrinth 2 is confirmed? Or was that already in the game?
Unless it’s pass floor 900, I don’t think so. Well, I got to floor 700+ but got bored.
Hopefully Grand Noah Queen gets a scene. 🙁
Hopefully all the battle fuckers get scenes
I was so sad when she had nothing in the original. I was sure she would at least have a ”bad end” scene in the epilogue.
I pray to the Hentai Gods that she gets something. And the Battle Fuckers too. At least let us request their Battle Fuck scenes if they’re not gonna get anything new. It’s a drag having to go to their original locations just to see the scenes. Especially if they remove the ability to teleport to them for good.
Hey Dargoth, two things I wanna point out/at
You might want to change “Invisible Hand of God” to “Unseen Hand of God” so it doesnt get cut off and read “Invisible Hand of G” on the job select screen…
Also why is it that most times youve updated the patch.. a certain Job name keeps changing? I speak of course of Automaton which became Evil Marta and is now Evilmaton..whats up with that yo?
Evil Marta still makes me chuckle. Also, apparently the translation program is anti Automaton. It thinks they’re all evil. Dammit program, stop being racist. You’re all machines. You’re all equal. XD
The race’s name is “ebirumaata”, which transliterates as “Evilmata”, or, more naturally, “Evilmaton”. Google translate must have mistaken “maata” for Marta.
One question:
When we do NG+ the bosses unlocked in Hades stay there?
No, everyone leaves and you start from scratch.
Paradox 1 and 2 translations will be merged together. Does that mean I have to buy Paradox 2 in order to get translations for Paradox 1?
I bought the first one, because of the femdom and monster girls, because that combination is hard to find. Everything else in the game is a nice bonus, but not the main focus. Since the story of part 2 is a priority here, I don’t feel like buying the second one.
@Dargoth
Is there anyway I can help proofread some of the translations, while avoiding major spoilers? Descriptions of a town Luka is in or something. Anything that doesn’t include major plot points or H-scenes.
Even if I can only help a little, it still helps.
Story was always the priority since part 2 of the main trilogy, really. But yeah, apparently there’s a new system in place forcing dargoth to use a completely new editor to translate the game, so all translations will be for a merged game. At least, that’s what I gathered from some of his past posts after part 2 dropped.
Idk about anyone else but I really wish the yellow cumshot guy would draw far less of the characters…. and that whoever drew alice, illias, nuruko, the 4 spirits, the 4 bandits, the 4 knights, all of the kitsunes, all of the battle fuckers, micaela, lucifina, and the nekomata girl would just draw the rest….
Ye. Jingai’s great. I wish he’d draw more of the Four Bandits. A lot more.
Who drew the lilith sisters though? I like their style… Also who ever drew alternate never been sealed tamamo… I REALLY like their style…
Tamamo-no-Mae and the Lilith sisters are drawn by Shiki.
Tamamo-no.Mae is a figure from Japanese mythology, by the way.
Jeez, why did I even bother browsing through the library? I was just interested in some cute CG’s, but… The horror, that I witnessed… It’s like, wow. The guy that drew Gnosis’s CG’s… Let’s just say, that the guy has TOO MUCH imagination. I wasn’t this wtf since forever. And it’s saying something, cuz there are a lot of vore in the game. I think I will have nightmares. Why can’t every angel be like Valkyrie or Cupid?! Why??
While I am sure more monstrosities await in part three, I do hope we get some legit sexy angels too. Atleast Shion and Eden are still sexy and we have Micha and Luci’s adult forms to look forward too >.>;
Yeah, where are the angels? There are like 7 in the blog that are all still missing.
I’m looking forward to Delphinus’ Angel Abominations instead. There’s nothing wrong with infinite imagination, if you ask me.
Alciel left me more impressed than shocked (so much I immediately added her to my main team), Heriel not so much, sadly (mass of hair, basically – reminds me a bit of Endiel with her nightmare tent tbh), plus they both share the same races. Uranus is a probably a bit weird (especially her scene) and Elysiel is … well, basically another Berryelle, at least more or less.
Nevertheless I like all of them. Probably better than the 5th generic succubus.
That said, what I’m not that happy with is the Xelvy Angels – Gnosis is sort of okayish (full machinery is always fine for me), and from the rest i only like Raphaela & to a lesser extent Gabriela, the rest is just not my taste. Metatrone & Sandalphone almost look identical, except for their weapons.
Yeah, I cant like any of that guys works… and I cant enjoy any of mr yellow cumshot guy(sonya’s artist)’s works…
Oh dang… its the same guy… Xelvy…. I will never like your characters… sorry XAX
I very much enjoy xelvy’s works. In fact, 3/4 of my group is filled with xelvy’s girls. Odette the Milftaurus in particular was charming.
Though… Huh. Then I saw Zwinckel’s H-scene. Just… how the heck did xelvy manage to get a dick in this game?! And not one, but two?!
There’s a dick in the game?! Finally! Take that, ToroToro. You can’t stop the futa master race! Or close enough anyway.
Doesn’t the High Slug girl already have a futa scene in Part 1?
Bah. Barely counts. Lame tiny slug penis. Luka’s had bigger tentacles and tails up his ass. And the scene lasts for, like, two seconds. I need a real man’s dick on my women.
3/4? How’s that even possible with 11 girls? Anyway, Xelvy majority is good. I prefer some good artist mixture though instead (no UN_DO though).
Except Radio…. Radio is a precious little cinnamon roll…And sometimes Hild…

thanks a lot 🙂
thanks 🙂 sorry to bother you again but can tell me morrigan’s too?
While you’re at it, I’m interested in the traits of Alciel, Seraphy/Dagon and Vivi/Guivre, that’d be a great help.

Wow, Alciel is OP.
You’re great, Desert Eagle, thanks a lot for that.
I noticed Alciel doing Double Grand Cross when using her in LoC and was pretty surprised by that, but in addition normal attacks x3 is pretty insane, I fully agree with Dj Quinn on that (doesn’t stop me from using her in my main team though).
Guess the other two will do fine as well. Seraphy is somewhat disappoinging since I haven’t found a good use for Tentacle Skills (and Scyllas aren’t the best stat wise) and I’m still not sure if I should replace Regina for Vivi or not.
Thanks again!
anybody can tell me how to obtain queen bee? or did I mess up working for the alraunes?^^
in order to recruit her and queen alraune you need to make peace. If you done everything right, the bird thingy and cat thingy will show up, and you will need to defeat them (the black alice followers)
Instead of choosing a side, listen to the stories of both sides, and then try to negotiate peace. If you do that, you’ll be able to recruit both Alra Priestess and Queen Bee.
Thx for the answer anonym guy and Desert eagle =)
i’m sorry guys but i have a question.. when i ran the runme and it finishes, all i see is the ( BLOB ) folder and nothing more.. is that the out folder?.. and what should i do next after that?
after running the runme, it says i were supposed to pick a directory with game.exe in it , but i always lunch it on mgqp part 2 because there is the directory..
extract clean part 2 to your desktop, copy all translation files in there, run the thing. It will generate a “out” folder inside your game folder with copies of all the game but translated.
thank you for your reply sir, i’m going to try it
Does GAME SELECTOR leaves a red message RunOutOfMemoryException? How much RAM do you have?
sir the red message that i see is the HASHDATA ERROR, but just once, i have 1.50gb ram..
I don’t know then. I have 4 Gb RAM (32-bit) and OutOfMemoryException (without run) shows up either during Game Selector or Translator work.
Please upload save.
Please learn to cheat to make your playthrough easier.
The game is pretty laggy compared to the 1st part, even after the patch is applied. I think it has something to do with the japanese text, but i’m not sure.
Huh? Never encountered the lag problem
I had a lag problem… Then I noticed my CPU was overheating due to the CPU fan not working. I cleaned it out and my lag problem went away.
Why doesn’t this project have a patreon? I see the donate button just curious is all also thanks i’ll give when I get paid Monday.
Do you Play all this game on japanese or do I miss something?
I played and beat this game in Japanese. I used Translation Aggregator to help understand the story – and there’s also Dargoth’s translation patch which translates UI, items, skills and abilties.
Most people play with a combination of the translations Dargoth provides and a 3rd party program such as Visual Novel Reader “VNR”, Chiitrans, and/or something else.
I played it in Japanese, mostly ’cause I don’t know how to use a machine translator and I know kana and enough kanji to get by.
Okay and that does it work? Would somebody leave a link to download the programs to go through the game a littelbit…and hopefully through the h-Scenes?
A mostly Pre-configured VNR can be found near the bottom on page 2
https://forums.fuwanovel.net/topic/17714-vnr-is-back-online/
You’ll need to extract it, place it where you desire, run it and add the game(s) to the VNR dashboard for it to play them but it’s pretty straight forward.
i tried using this and the text came back to me as some sort of incomprehensible spider language.
For anyone who doesn’t know, getting the Dark Fist class to 7 gives an ability for 50% crit rate. Just thought I’d mention it, someone may find it useful.
Oh yes. I’m training all of my party members in martial arts just to learn +crit% ability. Spellcasters in particular benefit from it, since there’s not much else they can use red ability points on.
how to finish vanilla shop quest and recruit vampire queen? i got stuck in getting some wine and a carpet, the guide says to talk to salaan but nothing happens?
have you near maxed out Vanilla’s shop with all the inventory items? I know for me this can be a rough game to play via the guide rather than reading through a hook-translator program.
Well, first you try to recruit Vampire Queen. Her condition for joining you is that you help her with world conquest – in the economic sense, by setting up the very first Vampire Pub.
Vanilla and Vampire Queen discuss about this. First, you need a location for Vampire Pub. They want to set it up in Sabasa, and Vanilla suggests the house that Salaan is in currently. Go negotiate with her about obtaining the building she’s residing in.
Next, the high-class pub you’re building needs a grand, red carpet. You’ll have to go acquire one from the sheep girls on an island west of Marine Headquarters. If you can get there, getting the carpet should be easy.
And of course, the pub has to have wine to sell – high quality, of course. The criminal underworld has dealings with wine producers – go negotiate with Don Father, that is, Larzarus about it. He should either be in Gold Port or in your Pocket Castle.
That’s all the steps you need to complete the sidequest. If nothing happens when you talk to Salaan, I can only guess that 1. You haven’t started the sidequest, or 2. Vanilla isn’t in your group. I’m not sure Vanilla is required to be in your group though…
the advanced hero jobs are in part 2?
Anyone able to give some ideas on how to machine translate this game on Windows 10? It’s difficult enough finding a text hooker but the best one I’ve found (ITH) doesn’t work on 10, not even the 64 bit one that is supposed to. I have the W10 Anniversary update, before I had that ITH started but crashed when you tried to hook the game now it doesn’t start full stop. The 64 bit one starts but the game doesn’t appear where you’re supposed to select the process to hook
Any tips on resolving this, or perhaps an alternative?
Visual Novel Reader works fine for me as long I don’t buy/shop/forge. Also make sure its up to date.
Yes Visual Novel Reader is the best options in my opinion too. I have 3 translators working at once and In my opinion you can understand a very large amount of the dialogs. Played trough the story with it, and I was surprised how much I was able to understand of it.
can it translate more than one line?
Check your windows version.
go to cortorna and type “winver”.
Mine is 1703 OS build 15063.413 and AGTH, ITH work fine.
You can also try ITHVNR.
My windows version is 1607 OS build 14393.1358, does that mean my version is older or newer than yours? I would have thought windows would keep itself up to date, unless of course its a bit different than what Windows update is related to
Does anyone have any idea how to unlock the Advanced Jobs or even some of the Intermediate jobs? The wiki doesn’t help much and I can’t find a reliable source. Same goes for races.
Well, you need a special item to unlock them. Not every race/job is unlockable yet.
You will be able to unlock quite a few of the advanced jobs as you advance in the story.
SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER:
After you beat each Queen monster after they attacked the 4 main human capitals, go back to the corresponding rulers to get the job (and race) change items. Also visit the King of Remina when you go to the past. You can also get a job change item in the pocket castle casino (after you recruit Lazarus).
END SPOILER
Not really a spoiler since you have to talk to them to progress the story.
Says Im missing a dll file so i cant run the RUN.ME. Where should i get such files and where do I put it
need help with vanilla shop quest in part 2
how to advance after upgrade from witch village,
every time i checked her shop she only says same thing

Visual Novel Translation Status (07/08/2017) – Fuwanovel
[…] Monster Girl Quest Paradox – MGQP Part 2 Initial Patch Released (More info and links: Link) […]
Possible SPOILER alert. Can we recruit Sabasa King in part 2? I saw his cut-ins in graphics folder, but I didn’t find him in the game 🙁 And what about Granberia in a dress? Never saw her in the game too.
Don’t know about Sabasa King but the 2nd one is seen during a sidequest. It was freaking hilarious. 😀
The whole scene even before Granberia gets her dress is hilarious at least for the Ilias route. I more or less guessed the dialogue and I had a good laugh.
Dargoth-sama, why in the new progress.xlsx the “edited” column is missing? It is replaced with the % one
Huh… after beating Chrome’s sister and recruiting her zombies, in the library next to their names it says (zombie) I wonder if we’ll recruit them non-zombiefied in part 3?
i don’t think so, they already got two races zombies and race when they where alive.
We do know a living Fernandez is going to make an appearance at some point because she has already been teased
There’s an empty slot after each of their characters in the game’s data files so that’s a definite yes. Same with the bandits and Alice/Ilias for their adult forms.
We’re gonna get adult bandits?! YES! YES!
Dargoth on one of your post I said this got me curious to learn Japanese. Little did I know how annoying it is or that I’d actually do it. See you in part 3 #Beginner Japanese
Hey, just a little reminder… If you’re looking for something to do, why not visit Grandeur’s theater again? With new monster girls recruited, new plays have become available.
Strange… Strength in Solitude (+25% to all stat for each missing or defeated party member) and Genji gloves (allows dual-wield) don’t seem to be working for me. Anyone encountered the same problem?
Genji gloves are not working for me, either. I hope it gets fixed.
Some classes and abilities which aren’t translated yet have weapon specialisation. This greatly strengthens your attack if that weapon type is equipped, the trade off is you can not use a second weapon regardless of whether or not you’re using the Genji gloves or even if the class e.g (battle master) can equip two weapons.
I think I read in the next update they were doing something to both multi-weapon and weapon specialisation, but the google translate is so bad I couldn’t get an exact read.
Some of the 10 cost Special skills which aren’t translated are such weapon specialisations, and the only class I personally know of which has weapon specialisation built in is Holy Lancer which is Spear.
There are other’s with weapon spec built in, but I don’t know them off the top. (Master Swordcerer might be one.)
ok, I got it. I just thought the weapon specialisation was an ability, but it appears that if I pick an advanced job (only tested on Blademaster) I immediately can’t dual-wield.
So, I’ve found that Cupid of Lust gets nullify elemental damage as an ability. Does anyone know of a job which gives that? I would like my other characters to get that as well.
I can confirm that it is exclusive to Angel races.
Luka gets that too. 🙂
You….know he’s an Angel, right? 😛
Half-angel
Well, you said “My Cupid of Lust has it”, so I thought to chime in that Luka also gets it, since he has access to angel races.
Geeez, that’s so op! this thing + ribbon = an almost invincible guy xD We just need to find a way to null all the rest resists.
Or Crisis Cape + Sylph at <25% health. That combo raises physical evasion so high that physical attacks automatically miss. Very useful against Yamata no Orochi,
Oh! Actually, I just found a defensive ability that negates all status effects. High apoptosis -race gets that.
Nerf Alciel & Heriel please. XD
Nah, they are fair and balanced ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
so lost in this japanese game -_- what character is better with fighting skills? i never was a adept but found it’s pretty powerfull.
Just play part1 (with patch), then part 2 it allow time to part 2 be translated
If you isnt play the first game (MGQ) i reccomend you play and read all history. 🙂
I was looking at the bitbucket for the translation and noticed that the Source files where there, does this mean that a patch could be made that translates stuff from part 1?
Since I finally got access to the mimic island can someone recommend me a battle theme for the game that will not annoy the living crap out of me? I plan on doing some grinding and experimenting since the glass cannon setup I had in part 1 for Luka doesn’t really work anymore in part 2 and if anyone has any high damage output setups for Luka I’d be really greatful
Ludwig Van Beethoven – Moonlight Sonata. Really, try it, it fits surprisingly well for the game.
Regarding Damaging Setup: Magic Converter + Convert Magic + Heavy Magic grants you a lot of Magic and Willpower. Either use Grand Cross, Nirvana or whatever Mage Spell (Omega Blaze, Frost Ozma, Lambda Spark, Supernova) you like.
If you also mix in Spirit Summoner and summoning magic, your spellcaster will have access to Sylph. If they invoke Sylph, they gain the same Wind Spirit’s Protection that Luka has, giving them +50% Magic and greatly increased evasion. Not only does it make spells stronger but it also helps your glass cannon evade attacks.
Which job gives Heavy Magic? Maybe that’s what Luka’s missing to 1-2 shot monsters. I got so used to that routine in part 1 that it kinda annoys me to see monsters survive purifying light casts from both Luka+Promestein. Not sure if I have access to Spirit Summoner yet. I just beat the Elf Queen so I’m probably missing a few jobs.
Funnily though, I looked on the wiki and nothing says you get Heavy Magic (except for Lily) – and confirmed it – non of my part 1 characters has Heavy Magic, so it’s restricted to a part 2 job or part 2 race.
Out of my Characters Luka, Shesta and Riot have it. I tried to compare the jobs of those three and my guess is it’s race-related (Worm Summoner for Luka, Spider Race for Shesta and something else for Riot).
I’d try the 3rd tier of Library Lord/Magic Scholar, but honestly, no idea.
How much damage should a mage be doing? I could not figure out how to make them decent in part 1 and haven’t bothered since then.
My 2 Dark Dragon Knights deal 140K single target un-buffed.
and my Mermaid deals 60k-120K AOE un-buffed.
Should a mage be doing more, less, or about the same?
(Without buffs/de-buffs)
Should also point out this is against 100% resistances, so no increased or reduced damage taken.
Depends. How much attack do your Dark Dragon Knights have and what skill do you use (ie. Multiplier)? Do you use Mastery or Skills that passively buff the weapon they’re wearing?
I think my Eater (= no passive increase) deals about 150k multi-damage with either Akashic Record (dark) or Supernova (apparently fire, but I don’t know – can’t be reflected either) at about 3,500 Mag, which is fine.
My dark dragon knights have about 1400-1500 attack. Using a non-translated skill which seems to be certain hit? (Spear 7SP/12MP) Using the last synthesis-able Holy lance and excalibur. I can’t give much more information sadly as I can’t read it XD
This is using god’s fist rosary 100% crit.
Micaela and Eden, (might have Spear bonus.)
No mastery.
+30% spear ability:
At least, reading this I know that mages can do some decent damage, but I think I’d struggle to keep them alive.
Well, of course, if you get hit by any physical skill as a Mage, your’e like totally screwed, which is why physical evasion in particular is good.
If you use Heavy Magic, it’s most likely the Magic will exceed the Willpower by a bit, but Magic damage/Pleasure damage isn’t much of an issue if you have ~2k-3k Willpower as well (but only 100 Defense). Not to mention Magic can be dodged and reflected.
Actually what you should have mentioned is that you always crit. Supernova/Akashic Records crits at 3,500 Mag for about 200-300k, but I guess I’ll look it up in LoC later.
Strange, I just maxed out all Lily’s jobs and races on Lucia, bud didn’t get the Heavy Magic. I only got the Light Magic.
Wiki says it is Character – dependent.
You get it when doing the event at the pocket castle with both – afaik that was taking them to destroyed Luddite Village.
For those still wondering Heavy Magic is learned by advanced Worm Summoner race, Master Homonculus at lvl 8 I think and Spirit Summoner Advanced Job
That’s good to know, thanks a lot.
is the illiasville mountain more possible to do on paradox difficulty in the beginning on part 2?
I heard that it was made more doable? At least I think I read that from ToroToro’s blog. I know I tried it back in Part 1. The slimes raped me for two hours before I decided to switch down to Hell mode.
…Maybe I should try Paradox mode again…
You liked the rape so much? Pervert… (c) Alice
Inb4 I spent too much time in part ones chaos labyrinth that playing anything but paradox mode is too easy….
So. The question. What’s your main team like?
My team is:
(Luka), Alice, Sonya, Lily, Riot, Shesta, Lippy (Little Bug), Valto, Odette (Misstauros), Aranje (Arachne Lord), Mei (Succubus Maid), Airy (Queen Fairy)
I tend to run story related characters only…but also what makes sense based on the two paths one could have picked…
So… for the Alice run… My team by the end is Luka, Alice, Nuruko, Sonya, Hild, Sylph, Gnome, Undine, Salamander, Mephisto, Alimagea(or whatever her fake name actually translates to), and Morrigan
For the Ilias run… My team by the end is Luka, Ilias, Promestein, Hild, Sara, King of San Ilia, Queen of Grand Noah, King of Grand Gold, Lazarus, Merlin, Heinrich, and Eden.
I have every cutest girl in the game in my team plus Lazarus. Lazarus is a fucking badass in paradox.
My team by the end of Part 1 was Luka, Ilias, Sonya, Rami, Lime, Promestein, Nuruko and Hild. Haven’t played much of Part 2 yet, so there’s been no change to that.
That’s quite the monotype run. Sort of. Shesta’s Insect, Aranje’s Insect, Lippy’s Insect.
Not that I’m any better.
(Luka), Alciel, Eater, Luxuru, Maiden, Riot, Regina/Vivi, Lucretia, Seraphy, Shesta, Ragora/Dolie, Levi
Yeah, half of my team is Apoptosis (excluding Maiden if you want to).
Some other notes:
– Regina/Vivi (Guivre): It’s probably either one or the other since they’re both single-race Yoma. I’d love to use both, actually since I love both of their designs but they could make use of another race (Succubus for Regina and Angel for Vivi).
– Luxuru/Maiden: Same problem as above – they both do the same since Doll = Apoptosis now. Luxuru has mor use in the long run because of Double Attack and Bind Strike 30, while Maiden’s Passive sadly is not of much use because Nightmare Embrace is too weak to be of use compared to other damaging skills.
– Lucretia (Queen Harpy): Only there for stealing things. One Skill – Chaotic Theft – no idea if stage 3 Thief gets it, but that’s the only reason I use her. Another boon is definitely the Evasion-boosting song, but since we got Mandragora Scream, Sparrow Dance and Seaweed Dance in LoC1, I doubt it will be exclusive to Harpies in the long run.
– Ragora/Dolie (Blue Dryad): Ragora is, like Seraphy, part of a way of dealing with the first opponent that joined me (without being forced to, like Lime or Bonnie) – those will always have a special spot in my party. I’m thinking of removing her for Dolie (which I like as well), but that’d be very painful for me. It doesn’t help that they both are single race plant, so on paper even Elysiel (the voracious angel) would be better. Ragora has a small niche in Sparkling though because of her passive.
– Seraphy (Dagon)/Levi (Leviathan): The latter is just plain awesome – Setouchi did a great job in desinging Levi, however, there’s some conflict between her and Seraphy (which is the first monster that joined me in part 2). Seraphy is Scylla/Sea Dweller (at least 2 races, even though I thought she’d be Mermaid if you look back at the VN) while Levi is Sea-Dweller/Dragon and Scylla is not good in particular.
– Alciel (yeah, that Eldritch Abomination): Had her in the party before I realized she’s insanely powerful with Normal Attack x3 and Holy x2. I had the choice between her and Heriel as it turned out they got the same race combination, unfortunately – and while in theory Alciel could probably be Lamia as well (look how she moves), I have absolutely no idea for Heriel. Plus, Heriel is arguably the more boring choice.
– Melissa (Maccubus): The 13th inofficial member, because Levi isn’t leveled yet. While being the only succubus (apart from Alma Elma) I’ve ever liked apperance-wise (red hair = good), I can’t even hide how disappointed I am with what TrTr (and the artist who drew her) did so far. No new scenes, fine. I can live with that – then being a one-time-only enemy with a different look which goes back to her old look when she joins you (plus, single-succubus race – not even human). No, thank you.
Team at end of part 1
Illias RT:

haven’t finished alice rt yet but doing it solo with luka/alice right now.
two bad there are no topics about builds
wtf, just was browsing though https://bitbucket.org/dargothtranslations/mgq-paradox-2/commits/a872399cdcbdf3fa71bf45b7783c747d9d5f1428 found some items that give 100% physical evasion, magical evasion. You think that is op? nah. The Revival Ring is regenerating a small loan of 100% hp per turn. Karma Ring sets magic reflection to 100% what the OP is this?
God’s Twilight [Accessory] Act three times per round. yeah, that’s balanced.
+ Name “Elemental Engagement Ring”
+ Description “[Accessory] Absorb all incoming elemental damage except Holy and Dark.”
Yeah, fine.
cupid of lust gets 20 points defense ability like that too.
I thought the Cupid of Lust ability grants immunity, not absorption.
What’s the difference?
Nullify = you take no damage.
Absorption = you take no damage and heal from previous injuries (i.e. in that case Holy/Dark damage).
The latter is slightly better, obviously.
Bitch please
Here is my save game file..http://www54.zippyshare.com/v/OVRYX2iq/file.html
I am still at grandgold castle with awesome status (alice route, cus i fucking hate illias)
I have more MP on my Luka though 😛 We are not talking about hacking the game here anyway.
Lol what!? “[Accessory] On entering combat, 100% chance to use Perfect Iai Strike (100% chance of Instant Death on foes).”
Here some translated link with useful walkthrough (from companion,sub event,main event etc) https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=en&prev=search&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=ja&sp=nmt4&u=http://seesaawiki.jp/mong/d/%25C3%25E7%25B4%25D6%25B0%25EC%25CD%25F7%2528%25C3%25E6%25BE%25CF%2529&usg=ALkJrhjrwypWjoynftJFNV9xUBRnCMMV3w
Anyone know the exact trigger for getting Vanilla’s last shop upgrade before starting Queen vampire’s sidequest to build a pub? From what I read it’s supposed to be a fried newt but talking to the shopkeeper in Magistea Village yelds no additional dialogue with Vanilla in your party and I think I have talked to everyone in the village with no results whatsoever.
http://monstergirlquest.wikia.com/wiki/Shop_Quest
Thanks for that. I was a few steps behind with it.
This is so stupid, nothing I do will make the princess appear so I can get the red orb. I’m literally tearing my hair out in frustration! I’ve beaten all 4 of the queens and spoken to the respective kings of the castles. Went and got the other 3 orbs, then went to the queen elf and spoke to her. Went to Yamatai and spoke to the village chief with Dullahan or w/e in my party and went to the snake shrine. Defeated Shirobi or w/e and returned and spoke to the elf queen. Went to the cave just outside yamatai and saved the stupid bear, returned her to the shrines. Now no matter what I do the princess will not show up! I’m basically locked out of any further progression.
If anyone has help it’d be much appreciated because this is ridiculous. I’ve followed so many guides and absolutley nothing is working.
Did you do the cat shrine and cheer up Tamamo? For the cat shrine, you need to talk to the priestess in the place with all those Nekomata and then talk to a certain Nekomata (Sonya will pipe up when you find it) then talk to the priestess again. For Tamamo, you just need to talk to her in the house in the Kitsune shrine (if you progress the story too much, this may get done for you, in which case you may need to talk to someone there to raise the flag (I’ve never missed it, so I don’t know). After that, talk to the village chief afterwards and he should give you an item that gives you access to certain special classes like taoist and ninja. You *should* be able to meet the Princess Elf now.
Oh my god let me try that real quick…
Dude I seriously cannot thank you enough. It all sorta worked out lol. Managed to talk with the Nekomata and do that part, but where Tamamo is supossed to be (I assume) there were just some foxes I believe blocking the house. Went and spoke to the village chief anyway, then went back to the elf queen and now its worked. I never would have figured that out by myself, so thank you sooo much lol.
What is your best record for LoC?
700 floors streak ended by a sonya mazduu
450ish here, gave up on it once I realized there wasn’t new loot after about 300.
Jump to 1100th floor, meet reaper, facepalm.
They need to nerf this chick.
510+, went out to see if I could enter from F500 again, saved before.
After that, I did mostly F51-F100 for stealing and superbosses.
is possible to recruit tanuki girl? (that girl in the fox shrine in yamatai)
Nope. She’ll probably be in Part 3, though ;P
hey guys im still having trouble getting the patch to work. getting system/RGSS301.dll could not be found. any help would be greatly appreciated
Try it with a clean version of part 2. Only then do you move the graphics folder from part 1 over. Graphics folder ONLY.
ah k. ty for the swift reply. will post if it works
One day ill get to play this game one day .. sucks i can see others playing and cant figure out what the problem is like the prevous patches
Can you describe your problem, so we can help you?
I see I have to ask for help again. I can’t for the life of me find the sparkling spot where I’m supposed to enter on the world map. Can someone provide a screenshot of where it is or is there a map out there with all the world map locations marked?
Of Gold coast. That’s what I was asking.
Assuming you are trying to find the “seed” for plansec princess or the Northern Sea area I’d go to Goddard and up to the top right coast. Up there are a couple of sparkling points kinda like that near Natalia Port.
If you are looking for something else, please specify “what you are looking for” or in relation to whom.
I am trying to find Poseidoness. I can’t find the beach where you’re supposed to enter the North Sea temple. That’s why I asked for visual aid.
Hmm… Well, one sure way to find it is to go to Gold Coast north-east from Goddard, and then follow the coastline tightly. The spot is on the lefthand side, marked by a tiny, shining star, but if you follow the coastline, you will automatically find it.
Go North-East from Goddard, past the Big Poison Marsh (that you see the left side of the screen) and right at the right edge you’ll see the Shore. http://i.imgur.com/iWQRLXZ.png
What’s up with that text in the right corner?
I’m using VNR for machine translations, sorry I was too lazy to edit the screenshot.
Thanks I wouldn’t have looked there. Was going around in circles near Gold Port. Btw what translation program are you using? ChiiTrans is starting to annoy me with all its crashes and VNR doesn’t do anything anymore.
It’s VNR (Visual Novel Reader). It was abandoned by it’s creator, but other people picked it up a month or two ago and now it has a version that is working.
Would it be too much trouble to ask for a download link to the working version? And does it work without an internet connection?
http://vnr.aniclan.com/upload/Visual_Novel_Reader(EN).rar
I only have the direct link, I don’t know which forum post did it come from. There are 2 downloadable offline translators that VNR can use I’m fairly sure those can be used without Internet connection, I can’t provide any help to those because I set those up more than 2 years ago and have no idea how to do it anymore.
If you have internet access tho I recommend using the Google translate option as a 3rd, since in my experience on an average that service gave the most accurate translations. And if something was gibberish you could almost always put together some meaning from the other 2 translations.
Also something to keep in mind, there is an option in VNR that hooks into RPG maker and directly exchanges the text in the dialog window. I found this to be very unstable and buggy, crashes 95 % of the time for me, so I would not recommend using it. I think it’s called embedding in the options.
Another thing is to set a hotkey up that pauses translation, because it can be slow or may crash if you’re skipping text with space while it’s trying to translate.
Please keep in mind that these are machine translations so don’t expect much, but sometimes it’s just enough to understand the meaning, for example:
http://i.imgur.com/0S8gSmz.png
Hope it works for you!
Thank you this will be really helpful since I have other games I want to try it on. I’m not expecting anything spectacular as I’m sort of used to machine translations I just wanted one that doesn’t crash every hour or so and allows me to play the game fullscreen.
For a “sort-of borderless windowed mode”, I recommend using http://www.digitallis.co.uk/pc/ResizeEnable/ . A Little hack that enables resizing windows that shouldn’t be resized.
After stretching it to your side and bottom of you screen, then use (while trying to keep aspect ratio) use the Full screen and “ratio” option on VNR’s side menu (near the side of the game window). That will make sure that the translation font is not pixellated and easier to read since the game won’t force your resolution to 640×480.
I spoke too soon. It seems I can’t download VNR from your link. The download just stops after 90 or so MB tried 7 times in a row last night and I couldn’t get it and I know it’s not my internet my internet works fine.
Strange, it downloads for me no problem. Must be a location thing. I uploaded it to mega for you here:
https://mega.nz/#!A9xl0SrL!z7-9JmeH8eTtN-ZFF2ZyYtw-0FToGIKqtFZ9dE9VPxk
Thanks for uploading it there it seems to work somewhat but I can’t get it to translate anything unless it embeds the translation in the game itself. How do you keep the original game text and get the translation on top or at the side?
Disregard the last comment I finally managed to get it to work
Hey guys, i was wondering if anyone could give me a hand, (Cheers).
I’ve just finished Paradox chapter 1 (still using the first chapter game so it doesn’t automatically carry over onto chapter 2,, ill most likely hold off doing chapter 2 till its give or take 75% complete….. anyways
Just finished chapter 1,,, i was wondering how do i star LoC now?
and also how do i start new game+ ? (that way i can recruit both lily and lucia)
((the information on lily’ lucia and the related side quest as been changed but last time i checked i could have swearn it said something about being able to recruit both,,,))
thats why i want with lily first, as im using ilias in this playthought im following the “sort of a power-abuse route”
((ilias spends most of the game telling me to wipe out the monsters, and lily wants to make the strong submit,,, so it seems good enough to class it as the power-abuse route for me at least lol))
Cheers for the heads up 🙂
nevermind,,, scratch that… i figured out how to start new game+
(Face plants the table)
i just simply had to go to hades lol….
You can have both Lily and Lucia but only in NG+
To start NG+ go to Ilias Temple 2nd floor and through the big doors. Talk to the Reaper and she will give you the option to start your game again.
Near her there should be a bookcase. If I remember correctly that’s where you get the option to access the LoC.
@Dargoth
I was just wondering how the “Apply Part1 Translation to Part2” process is going? Any news regarding that? Also… Is Rogue actually helping with the translations now?
It’s done, just hasn’t been packed for distribution. And yes, Rogue is actually helping.
(Serperate from the person who you replied too) super excited about the next patch. I’m really amazed by all of the translation team’s progress and can’t wait for the next patch to come out. (Hoping I can play through the pirate area at least XD)
THANK YOU DARGOTH ohh dargoth please forgive me last time i made mistake install your godly patch on monstergirl quest part 1~3. I AM SORRY~
Anyway i am waiting complete walkthrough to be there before playing hAHAHHAHAHAHAH THGANKSSSSS
https://pastebin.com/yKjNkSME here you go, thank me later
i’m blocked here:
60.) You can now head North, past the golems. At the end, you fight one as a boss.
I’m at the 8th floor of the labyrinth, but there is a fessure (?) and can’t go procede further (there is also a harpy in the same map). I read there are 12 floor… what did i wrong? help pl0x.
are there some vines that you can climb? If I remember correctly, you can climb vines near that harpy.
you are right! I saved near them and i didn’t notice them! You saved me. Thank you very much.
I refresh this page every hour.
Also I have great party. I’ve got a Gunner / Smooth Talker / Battle Fucker Ilias
A Royal Guard / Tao Swordsman Luka
A 3 Star Cook / medusa / Pope / Sage Sister Lamia
A Berserker Minotaur
A Black Marketer / Item User Shadow Girl (ha get it cause its a shadow and shadows are black)
A Ninja Hassan
(Soon to have Dragon Knight Harpy Queen, Monster Tamer Dryad, Valkyrie, and Magus fist Salamander)
Get Harpy Queen Spirit Summoner, Trickster, Divine Songstress. Equip the abilities Evade Physical 30% and Evade Magic 30%, summon Sylph, Equip some nice status effect nullity and you have an untouchable character.
i’m purposely choosing non-meta choices since my party is already good enough to take out Ashtoreth in LoC without Vicarious Clara. gotta enjoy a bit of difficulty.
She is not untouchable. Some skills and spells with auto hit effect are undogdeable like holy, dark, and makina. Clara and electromagnetic armor are still necessary
Guess probably the best choice would be an Apoptosis + Resist Pleasure and Holy/Dark (as an accessory if it exists).
My bad, that was supposed to be Luka since he summons the Spirits. It boosts his stats to around 90% evasion I believe.
Evasion is not that OP, since there are a lot of certain-hit moves
When I first got a dialog menu, prompting to continue the story in Part 2 (The one that takes you to a meeting in the Pocket Castle VIP chamber if you accept), I declined so I could level up some more in the familiar Part 1 areas, but I haven’t seen that prompt again. Anyone know how to get that story continuation to trigger again after declining it?
Just finish Part 1 again I believe. You should get it after beating Andramalech, then you will proceed to appear near Luddite village.
Thanks for the suggestion, trannon1!
Let me explain in more detail: Part 1 is completed, and Andramalech is defeated. Only the first level of the tower is open, with the upper levels, and Andramalech now inaccessible.
I’ve loaded and initial English patched Part 2. Once you exit the pocket castle or a city in Part 2, Alice says something(untranslated) and you have 2(untranslated) options. The top one takes you to a meeting and what I assume is the kick-off for Part 2 story. So, I chose the bottom one, and Luka said something, then I got to keep playing without the meeting thing happening.
Now, I’m wondering how I initiate that again, within Part 2.
Have you tried doing a NG+ and finishing Part 1 all over again? That was what I was suggesting.
You can’t see the meeting if you declined to do so. I think it was implemented to freshen up the plot details for people who haven’t played in part one for a while and isn’t necessary at all to progress the story.
To progress the story, go to the tunnel north of Luddite village.
Thanks, Anon!
I wanted to hold off on that meeting until a Dargoth translation was available for it. I had been playing about 10 hours after declining it in favor of leveling up, and was starting to get paranoid that I’d locked myself out of progression.
I’ve got a save point before the meeting, so I can go back and watch it, but I was worried that if it was tied to progression, I’d wasted my time with leveling.
On the plus side–As a result of trying to figure things out, I got Visual Novel Reader working for Paradox since my Interactive Text Hooker/Translation Aggregator combo seem to be obsolete these days, and I never got them working for Paradox.
I still want to wait for Dargoth before playing the story, but that will help me navigate in the once-again-untranslated Part 1 areas for leveling a while.
Thanks, you two for the input!
Isn’t it the same meeting, like the one that we got after finishing part 1? (I think we got one at least) If so, it is translated already, you just need to finish part 1
@Anonymous – I’m really not sure what’s in the meeting. I finished part 1 with Dargoth’s fully [story] translated version (1.21.51) last year. I don’t remember specifically what all was said at the end of it, other than being outside the ruined tower and getting a message about continued in Part 2.
The other Anonymous says it’s a recap, so maybe I’m not missing much, but really, all I want to do right now in Part 2 is level in the old areas until a decent English story translation patch is available.
I’m grinding any and every Beginner/Intermediate job that could possibly be of any use to my current party and reserve.
Just did NG+ to confirm it. You do get the choice again if you do a NG+ after you defeat Andramalech again.
One question, can you recruit any of the rabbits? To white or to black [Death or Shinigami, as you might call it]? I say this because reviewing the “action” images of combat, there is one for each one of them and I was wondering if they can be recruited in any way or, if Totoro left it there, nothing more like an Easter egg than it will come Future in part 3 of the game or future updates.
Wow, I never realized the Reaper was a black rabbit…
Damn, neither did I. And it’s super fucking noticeable too. How did I miss that? XD
Library > Monster Book > Page 3. If it has (Recruited:Yes or Recruited: No) at the top, the monster is recruitable.
Probably left for part 3
Something interesting I notice, when you run from enemy battles, there is a higher probability for your next encounter to be the rare encounter.
Whenever I’m bored of LoC, I’ll try to confirm this I guess. Looks like that’s coincidence.
Ummmm I’m confused… Am I an idiot or something? i downloaded both part 2, the english patch for part 2, patched it without a hitch, i start the game, and its the start of the first game… is this supposed to happen or did i screw something up?
Yes. Part 2 is a continuation of Part 1 and includes all of Part 1 in it except the art (which can be added by copying in the graphics folder from your copy of Part 1 if you have it). You can’t start at the beginning of Part 2 unless you copy an end game save from Part 1 into the save folder for Part 2, otherwise you still have to play through Part 1 to get to the Part 2 content.
ooooooh…. tyvm
Is heinricj actually recruitable in the ilias run? If so, how and when? Because it certainly isnt handled the way it was with alicetromeria
It’s when you go back to get the orb after dealing with the four queens and then reporting back to the four monarchs of the attacked cities. After you talk to the sailor in front of the boat and then the rich lady in the north western house, talk to Heinrich in the inn and he’ll join.
I don’t think Heinrich is recruitable in Ilias route afaik
Heinrich is recruitable in Ilias route.
How far does Ilias route diverge from Alice route, seeing as the walkthrough follows Alice route? Also, how do we side with the Navy?
Ilias and Alice has the same storyline location-wise, though conversations and enemies are different. You side with the navy by talking to the Purple Mermaid in the North-West.
Alright. What do I miss out on by siding with the Navy? The Pirates miss out on two monsters according to the pastebin…
That’s it. Miss out on Sea Horse and Sea Slug if you side with Pirates. Miss out on Blue Mermaid and Pink Mermaid if you side with Navy. Only other difference is that the Navy town becomes hostile if you side with pirates. Leviathan joins you either way after you bring Selene to her.
Ah, I see. Out of curiosity, do you know what the pirates/navy are saying? What the moral connotation is or anything? I kinda just sided with the navy since flat is justice.
I went with pirates with Alice and navy with Ilias since it fits the whole chaos versus order aspect. I no read moonspeak.
Rip. Ilias certainly did seem to enjoy the smiting, though, so no regrets.
basically One Piece, the Pirates only attack bad guys and never civilians but the Navy or at least Admiral Leviathan want to take them out because “they could become a threat”, that’s it apparently. FYI Leviathan also kills you in the first version of her H-scene because “soliciting a member of the navy is a felony and punishable by execution” or something, her second scene just has her spare you to “scare you straight”.
She pretty much comes off as a hardass and stickler for the rules compared to Bonnie.
Quick Question. Does anybody here know if somebody on the internet that at least started working on a Job/Race list with translations of the potential new skills that it brings to the fold? I do recall finding a Job list specifying most of the new advanced jobs but that is all it does. I am asking since I have been recruiting a lot, and for recruits like Leviathan, I have noticed some heavy duty skills that I assume are powerful given their 20 Ability Point costs and the sort, but cant really know how they work. I tried to use a text hooker like Visual Novel Reader, but no dice, although I think I did something wrong there. Any help would be appreciated.
Use Chii-Trans. Very easy.
Can you link me to an up to date version or tutorial of chii trans? Everything i have seen in the net about it seems terribly outdated. Didnt it lose google support as well at a point?
I assume there is no 200% job exp ability given by any advanced job? Mastering advanced job is a pain even on mimic island where you’re guaranteed a minimum of 30 JP with 2x bracelet on. Or is there any other place that’s better for grinding jobs?
The tower to the right of Saloon has Honey Pots and Mimic. Granted, other monsters pop up there too, so it might be better in the long run to go for Mimic Island.
Yes, there is such a job: Grandmaster Maid lv 10. Mastering Maid gives +50% Job experience, which lead me to believe Grandmaster Maid would give the 100% version. As soon as it became available to me, I made all of my party members learn it.
Well, for human characters, it might not be as useful. At max level, it doesn’t matter whether you’re using 100% Job exp or Job XP Full Focus -ability. I reasoned that Job +100% will come in handy in Part 3 when they begin leveling again.
Yep I know of Grandmaster Maid ‘s ability the problem is no matter what combo of abilities you put there job exp gain doesn’t go over 200%. I find it frustrating that some abilities don’t stack as others do for example magic converter+conversion ring.
Yep. That’s where it caps at.
OK WOW… I Got a vastly different and unexpected ending on the illias route vs the alice route… and now i am trying to figure out if it was just because it was the illias route… OR OR OR if it was because I did not have Nuruko with me… because well.. illias still hates monsters so I play by her rules in this one…can anyone confirm or deny this for me?
Alice Route, Nuruko will transform into Chaos Nuruko who is the spirit of Chaos and stop both Ultimate Sonya and Ultimate Andramalech.
Ilias Route, Ultimate Sonya will erase herself together with Andramalech but create a version of herself from a bit before, then erase everyone’s memory of the occurence.
Except Luka’s as crippled as the machine translation was I could gather that Luka still remembers her.
Hmmmm… is that foreshadowing of something?
Well, Luka HAS been shown to be able to get glimpses into other worlds, like when he got the memory of another him and Alice being told he’s an angel after the Berzerker defeats him or how he saw images of a human disguised Micheala when he encountered and somehow knew her name when he met her on the mountain. There’s definitely some sort of connection between Paradox Luka and the chaos, so I don’t think it’d be too much of a stretch for him to resist Apoptosis Sonya’s memory wipe.
+ he saw Granberia in Illiasburg and shown some really impressive calculus skills. Maybe he is a robot built to prevent the end of the world, just like Hild, but more powerful?
Just curious, will two Black Alices meet each other in this part?
No. They clearly know each other judging how White Rabbit dropped the key to Hades in the first place.
What does the rabbit has to do with Black Alices?
It’s the Rabbit’s role to lead Alice into the Wonderland, is it not? 😛
Try bringing Alicetromeia with your party when you go fight Black Alice in the past using Tartarus, something interesting happens. I am guessing that either they are one and the same or they know of each other’s existence despite being from different parallel worlds.
And if heinrich is in your party, then there will only be hers teddy bear.
btw I just NEED to know the dialogue when we pick the second option when we talk to her xD I think it will go like this: “-Welcome heroes! So, you think you are strong enough to defeat me? -Ummm, nah, we’re just passing through, buy. -…What?”
She’s the same, she leaves your party to go to her throne when you enter her throne-room. She’s also doing a very bad job at hiding it. I’m interested what will happen if you can recruit present Black Alice (in part 3) and then bring Black Alice from 500 years, “present” Black Alice to meet Chaos-God Black Alice. Now that would be a fun tea party.
That’s what I’m interested in too.
Hey, a little heads up: it’s possible to pickpocket Small Medals from Boxed Girls.
…Well, the name I prefer for them is Girl-in-the-Box. Not only can you read “sheltered/boxed girl” from it but it’s also a reference to Jack-in-the-box, the symbol of surprise.
hey is there any way to change the arrow keys to other keys in this game i cant understand shit of the “tutorials” google shoves at me im not a professional programmer im just some guy if you can help me plz do im having trouble playing with the arrow keys
Right click the top border of the game window and select propreties. The Keyboard tab should allow you to change the buttons as you please although I would honestly recommend using a gamepad with a keybinding program like JoyToKey.
i tried that but apparently i found in some forums that the rpg maker wont allow me to change the arrow keys to smtin else on windows only other systems get a nice clean menu for keybindings anyway ty for awnsering
Ok so I did the alraune queen side quest. Got the priestess to change forms and they both joined my party yet Amira says something about the queen being brainwashed can’t fully understand due to machine translation and when I go to the top of the world tree the alraune queen is still there moping because the priestess refused to succeed her and become the next queen. I tried bringing the priestess to her in my party but no change whatsoever. What am I missing here?
That sounds… Odd. If you successfully recruited Alraune Queen and Alra Priestess in her 2nd form, that shouldn’t happen.
Could it be because I applied the patch to a 2.01 version of the game? I remember reading around here that the patch updates the game but it doesn’t add whole events or something like that.
That’s almost definitely it. You were supposed to fight the queen before moving on with the story or else it bugs out. 2.02 fixed this by adding a new event, which I wasn’t able to backport to 2.00-2.01. You’ll have to get 2.02 and copy your save over, then it should work fine.
Not sure what went wrong but that’s how it is. On the status screen both the Priestess and the Queen are Queen Alraune race and I tried taking them both to the alraune queen that’s still in the world tree dungeon no change in dialogue though.
guys i always see this error when running the runme it says ERROR the method or operation is not implemented.. how should i fix this?
the error message pops up after the runme runs reflex check on all .rvdata2 (skills, items, maps, etc)
Anyway to get past it?
Just beat the Black Alice. Sooo… what’s up with the Seven Crow Mirror??
*shrug* No idea. Maybe it becomes useful in one of the upcoming updates, or maybe in part 3.
Probably the item needed to “recruit” that earlier timeline’s Black Alice in part III.
Anyone know where to get the item to unlock the advanced Battle Fucker jobs?
I believe you have to beat 35 different BF to get it (there are 36 in Part 2 counting the ones from Part 1).
You defeat 33 BFs, then check on the request board in Pocket Castle, you will see either Seahorse girl or Bonnie depending on who you sided with. Then you teleport to Navy HQ, get on your boat and sail east till you see another boat. Board it and you will meet 3 BFs, beat them all to get your reward.
Make sure to equip +HP% ability and accessory; the Gloria Pirates aren’t fucking around.
Or, more precisely, that’s exactly what they intend to accomplish.
I think I beat all of them but I missed out on part 1 BF-ers and eventually got my Lewd God Soul.
However I’m still missing a few advanced jobs. Not all of them are available in this part right? The one under Holy Mage, Pirate King, Admiral,War Miko and the one below it, the three jobs below Devilish Prostitute, Magus King and the last 2. These aren’t available yet I presume
Yes, not all jobs are available yet. Pirate King, Admiral, Magus King and advanced Hero jobs aren’t available yet. It’s my belief that there’ll be more advanced jobs in part 3 that require combinations of jobs to get. After all, +40% abilities have to come from somewhere.
But I think you might be missing two job items: Star Soul, and Scientific Extremes. Star Soul is obtained from Queen Alraune, and it unlocks War Miko and the other job. Scientific Extremes is obtained from the little lab in Remina (very hard to miss; lots of protesters in front of it). One of the professors in there gives it to anyone who passes the exam for it.
Got the Scientific Extremes now. As for the other one I won’t be able to get until I find a clean 2.02 version of the game and patch it. Alraune Queen recruiting bugs out in the version I have. Thanks for pointing out where to get scientific extremes though. I don’t usually talk to everybody
Great…more backtracking…I suppose the legendary blacksmith and the iron meteorite part of Papi’s blacksmith quest are saved for the last part?
I think so, yes. I don’t recall seeing Randolph in any of the villages I’ve been at.
Randolph?? Also how do we get papi to learn dragon scale, orichalcum, and rainbow somthing
For each material you have to have Papi in your party and talk to the blacksmith that sells weapons from that specific material. For orichalum you need an item from the North Sea Temple. Dragon Something Hammer. The Dragon Girls in Gold Port teaches Papi orichalum smithing and the elf smith on fairy island teaches her to forge rainbow or prism stuff. I forgot where the one that teaches you to work with dragon scale.
Grand Noah’s blacksmith can teach you how to smith dragon scale.
After learning the apex of smithing, rainbow material, Luka’s party notes that the truly legendary weapons and equipment, like the ones at Monster Lord’s Castle, aren’t made from rainbow. That’s when Alice tells them of meteoric iron, the only material tougher than rainbow. Unfortunately, the techniques to work on this fabled metal have long been lost to the ages, and all attempts to smith it have failed. If anyone can figure out how to make meteoric iron equipment again, it would be Randolph, the Legendary Blacksmith.
How do you trigger the sequence in grand noah? Ive been there several times with papi and nothing happens she doesn’t even try to speak with the blacksmith. I have to do these in order right?
The most obvious answer I can come up with is that you haven’t found dragon scale stone yet.
I have found it 3 times now
Hmmm…….
One other possibility I can think of is that you have started the miniquest to learn dragon scale smithing already. The blacksmith requires you to win Colosseum games before teaching you dragon scale smithing.
Besides that… I can’t really think of many other options. One last thing that I can think is that you have already learned dragon scale smithing, and Papi has dragon scale items in stock.
Or perhaps this is a bug of some sort that was fixed in one of the patches? Do you have the latest version of MGQ?
I have the version in the screen cap for this initial patch, that IS still the latest yes?
Dargoth, can I help you? Cause I’ve been translating some of the untranslated Request Scenes of the monster girls in the Monster Lord Castle, and attempting to translate more, so, I feel like sharing it.
Not sure but I think it’s easier for him to see it when you put @Dargoth (though that’s from what I’ve seen others do lol.)
I would be interested in those even if they are just txt files. Who’s scenes have you translated?
Welp, I’ve only been doing the Imp’s (Request 4), Slime (Request 2), and Sonya’s as of now, haha. Unfortunately, I only noticed now that there’s also a number of untranslated conversation scene when a certain Monster meet another certain Monster, so I’m focusing on that one first before heading to request scenes.
Some of those conversations make me chuckle, like when I talk to Iron Maiden with Lily in my team.
Indeed, haha. Translating them is really amusing, to be honest. Though, since I don’t know how to implement it to the game, all I could do is put it into a txt. file and hope @Dargoth can pick it up and maybe help lessen his work.
Just curious if anyone has found out how to get Longinus, the only synthesis I am missing atm.
