The method I posted here >>120517647 works for bookwalker but it's shitty because you need to manually look for the files, rename them and put them into order. I dumped the memory of flash player process (Firefox starts two of them, dump the one that takes more memory) and was able to get the images just fine. Someone would need to write a simple script that automatically removes unnecessary files like .gif, corrupted files and duplicates to save the hassle going through all of them manually.

>>120635845
Give it a shot if you'd like. I have zero faith that it works on something that is not my system.

Bookwalker <app data folder> <uuid>

Find the app data folder where there is an bwdb.sdf file. The uuid is for the series which you'll have to figure out, but unless you have better know-how you'll just have to try all of them from the contents directory.

>>120636640
Also, don't forget the double quotes for the path, otherwise you'll probably get into trouble.

>>120636662
It is run from bookwalker.exe in the bin folder,and point it to AppData\Roaming\BOOK☆WALKER for Windows?

>>120636825
Yeah. The last thing you need is just the uuid of the series e.g. 947eb96f-a3d9-4d7d-a491-8ab8bfacec1c. The output is in the app data folder as well.

>>120636866
Guess it is running but not working,it give me these:

Ah, then it looks like it's running but missing some libraries. Install Sql Server Compact edition 4.0 from the Microsoft site and see if it works. Otherwise, I'll have to zip it up with some more libraries.

Oh fucking yes. Well, more raws for everyone hopefully.

Are there any go-to places for raws outside of Japanese P2P? I want to try scanlating something for the first time but the raws I got from nyaa are shit.

>>120637354
Try google the title you want?
Aslo you can try the stuff on top post.

>>120637354
The raws on P2P, Nyaa and DDL sites are all the same and usually the only public raws in existence.

>>120637267

Cool. Now if only I knew what Bookwalker raws are worth the time.

Aw shit, it's million times faster than ripping with OMD.
There's tad less compression shit in EBJ sample, though.

>>120639463
I guess it is because it is command line vs java thought. It aslo depend on the publisher for the quality,usualy kadokawa have the best quality release.

>>120639463

Install Sql Server Compact edition 4.0 if you have error.

You will have to run as command line exe.

>>120640565
You can't even use something so simple as command line?

>>120640639
To tell the truth no, I don't know. But I'm googling that stuff right now.

Sorry, but I'm really stumped on what to do. I got the Bookwalker app from the site, and the ripper. Now, here's my questions

-Do I have to create an account in BW?
-How do you open the ripper with cmd and how do you even point it to the app folder?

C'mon guys, laugh at me if you want.

>>120642380
They teach you how to use command line in 4th or 5th grade, for suck's sake.

>>120642526
I must have skipped school that day ;_;

Not sure if this is the place to ask, but are any groups/individuals scanlating Teekyuu? Seems weird that a relatively popular anime only appears to have volume 1 scanlated so far.

How would someone go about learning how to clean/typeset from scratch? As in, assume I can barely even into computer. Any decent tutorials on this?

Always wanted to practice translating with some manga after a couple of stalled visual novel projects that went nowhere because holy fuck that is a lot of words.

>>120635485
I am currently trying to get my hands on the Kenshin/Houshin Engi/Slam Dunk Kanzenbans. As well as the Yu Yu Hakusho Kanzenbans.

So far I got lucky with Kenshin and Houshing Engi but The Yu Yu Kanzenbans are nowhere to be seen, I found a site that has them but it seems that all the links got shut down because of copyrights. Also The Slam Dunk Kenzenban raws are nowhere either but I could get my hands on Chinese scans. Does anyone know a site that host Chinese scanlations? Perhaps I could find other series there as well.

As far as scanlating goes I am currently working on cleaning the raws of Sanctuary, the political thriller made by Buronson and Ikegami, the current scans are garbage take out of the comic release in America like 20 years ago.

>>120637354
It depends on the series. If you are looking for tank scans there are several sites that have shit ton of series, both current and old. If you are looking for MQ/HQ weekly Magazine scans I think the only place are Jap P2P.

comic walker when ? ;_;

>>120643208
I've been searching the Yu-Gi-Oh and Nougami Neuro kanzenban raws for a long time now. Do you know where to find them?

>>120642802
There are shit ton of beginners tutorials, though most are for shit old Photoshop versions they are still kinda good and they also teach you the basics on leveling and such.

Then you can learn how to clean properly or redraw, but you first need to cover your basics.

>>120643545
Thanks, guess I should just stop being a lazy piece of shit and hit up google.

Just informing the scanlation thread that I'll be doing tl threads for Amaama to Inazuma on Wednesdays or so until I catch up to the volume releases.

More info here >>120641562

>>120643628
Basically just install photoshop, download a random raw from a series you like and then load one of the pages on PS.

Then you will know what you need to look for on tutorials. Again there are shit tons and most cover the basic well enough but unless you are trying for yourself you will never get anywhere.

>>120643354
Sorry m8, I try to look for it but on both cases I only see the traditional editions for download.

May I ask what happened to the scanlation of Latin's companion stories?

>>120635485
What's the best way to translate a Kansai accent into English when it's significant to the plot? That is to say, sometimes the character transitions from 'standard' Japanese to her Kansai accent and other characters notice.

There's also a mix of characters, some of which speak with their Kansai accent full time.

>>120644746
Was it ever translated as something other southern accent? I honestly can't remember.

>>120643829
>install photoshop
CS2 is free would that be enough? Or is it important to work with CS6?
Because I'm working with Gimp currently and I don't know how good/bad Gimp is compared to PS

>>120644978
It's shit compared to CS6, just torrent it. There is a reason people use Ps for scanlating instead of adhering to muh freedom.

>>120645079
>There is a reason people use Ps for scanlating

>muh Topaz

>>120645193
Topaz only started being used like 4 years ago, Ps had already been used for ~10 years before it spread throughout the community.

>>120645193
For weekly scans is true. But it has been the standard before Topaz went "mainstream" when weakly, cheap and available MQ raws became a norm back in 2008/2009 (I think). Before that PS was still the standard among scanlators.

>>120644978
Yeah CS2 is fine, I personally pirated CS6 but I can't see the difference with CS2, though I am sure there is for scanlation I would say that even a portable version of CS1 or one of the numered PS would be enough. Gimp is basically fine, it will help you to start but I don't know if it will help you with the most current advanced tutorials that are mostly always build around CS2.

Fucking damn it, well I need help with this image guys, I can't remember for my life how to clean up the shadow on the middle of the scans (in the image on red) I know there was a way that didn't involved overleveling the scan nor the area in particular but I can't remember nor find a good tutorial.

>>120645558
What's the point in rescanlating something with dogshit raw like this one?

>>120645558
>>120645490
You'll need to burn/level/copy/erase/redraw it. Or try disabling colors for that specific area. But yeah, like that other anon said, a 725x scan and with that quality? Fuck.

>>120645669
>725x

You're doing it wrong.

>>120645617
Actually the raw is even shittier but the scan of the american version is even worse. Also I am mostly doing it to translate it to my native language. The english version added box over the draws all over the place to cover japanese texts.

Let's say you have two speech bubbles on the same panel. In the original Japanese they both have the same text size, but one of them is a clusterfuck.

There is no way to fit the clusterfuck one with regular sized text, so you have to make the text smaller for that one.

What do you do with the other one? Do you go for consistency and make them both the same size, or do you fit each bubble independently?

Also, what's the font on the OP?

>>120646075
I fit each bubble independently.

>>120646075
CC Astro City, it's shit don't use it for speech bubbles.

>>120646860
Get rid of the moire on his suit before everything else. I find that the b&w filter in photoshop works well with manually adjusting.
And I think you overdid it with topaz.
Right side of the panels still has some gradient. That should be easy to get rid of with curves and masking.

For now, if you decide to translate some chapters, just stick with the magazine raws. I'll probably decide to scan it, but not until some scripts are ready.

At the risk of raising e-peen, who's the MVP of scanlations on /a/?

I need an editor for Filament (URUSHIBARA Yuki, Mushishi), as someone is now offering translations. Chapter 3 is translated.

[email protected]

>>120639767
It's not really that. For one OMD actually has to do the downloading. Secondly, the structure of the app is actually really odd. And in the case of EBJ, it actually has to do a bunch more processing to unscramble the images. Bookwalker just runs it through some pretty standard crypto algorithms.

>>120643348

WHY

>>120665377
Yet another reason some things are actually worth paying for so you don't have to deal with utter shit.

>>120661189
Good, you really only need like 2-5 main fonts and the rest you use if something is very different and you need a special font.

>>120665377
Some shonen/shoujo actually do use a bunch of fonts but per-character is probably evidence of faggotry.

>>120636640
I'm a dumb Windows user who can't do shit on his own past clicking on a .exe to get things running. How do I use this?

>>120669055
1. Install Sql Server Compact edition 4.0 from the Microsoft site
2. Navigate to the Bookwalker.exe file in the bin\Release directory.
3. Shift-right click somewhere the folder and go 'Open command windows here'.
4. Call the program with something like:
Bookwalker "C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Roaming\BOOK☆WALKER for Windows" 947eb96f-a3d9-4d7d-a491-8ab8bfacec1c

You'll have to find the AppData directory to point to and the id of the series you're after by looking in the contents directory of the same folder.

>>120669483
Also, don't forget the quotes around the path.

Why don't you just distribute a .sdf file with "Bookwalker.exe" instead of requiring people to download SQLCE?

>>120670309
The .sdf file is the database with all the keys. If you mean the .dll file, well to begin with I didn't realize that people needed it.

As to why no new zip file, from experience, it's never a great idea to redistribute something unless absolutely necessary, otherwise you inevitably fuck something else up. If people are going to get any more code, why not from Microsoft?

So if I put up some scripts, you'll provide the remaining raws to translate? How many chapters are there total? I'd assume it's another 2.5 volumes or so.

If I can get raws for the rest, I don't mind doing it. I'm only going to do a weekly thread for the other series for now though, since I already have raws.

>>120636640
I love you.

So does Bookwalker just let you get digital versions of Kadokawa tanks, or does it let you do other things like subscribe to digital magazine editions etc?

>>120679897

Only 6 chapters are translated, so that leaves at least 12 more chapters that you can translate before having to worry about further scans. 3 volumes total.

>>120680667
There are early light novel release,game magazine only release at there (Famistu) and also early CompAce and Dengeki stuff i guess.

>>120635485

You should stop scanlating or learn English.

Fucking spics.

>>120682145
>implying spics don't know English better than murrikans

Guys which translation group is the best in your opinion? Mangastream, Mangapanda, Redhawkscans, Imperial Scans, Easy going Scans or some other group? I would really like to see who does the best scanlation.

>>120665377
>World Trigger
I thought no one is scanlating that anymore.

>>120682816

There's no such thing as a best scanlation group. The only ones who would disagree are the hardcore e-peen scanlation scenesters or people who get super autistic about manga, and in both cases their opinions are to be placed into the trash as soon as possible.

There's bad ones, and the rest are good enough. You're probably already not reading the bad ones, since they are bad and they will annoy you when you try reading their junk and so you will stop doing it.

Anybody who could do it in 10 / 20 minutes wanna have a go and save me a fuckton of effort?

Also taking advice for the actual cleaning part I've not done yet, I never actually learned how to clean colour pages so I was just going to do what I usually do and run it through topaz denoise / clean like I do with black & white pages but I know some people don't like that.

Will this also decrypt any other files in the directories, for example, the html files for their ebooks?

>>120686660
Yes. But those are usually unused I think.

You magnificent son of a bitch

What Fonts do you guys use for your scanlations?

About the best I've been able to come up with for the clean myself.

>>120645965
What's the name of this one?

>>120636640
If everything else is satisfied, you can do this

open a command window in C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\BOOK☆WALKER for Windows (where the dwdb.sdf is) and run the following command, it'll decrypt everything you have downloaded

FOR /D %G in ("*") DO "C:\path\to\decryptor\Bookwalker.exe" "C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\BOOK☆WALKER for Windows" %G

I'm kinda rusty on this, but, anyone looking for a cleaner?

I want to get in shape with my photoshop skills.

You over-leveled it. Can't even see the lace on stockings.

That's more the texture boost on Topaz clean, for the life of me I couldn't find a happy medium for it. Even with clean strength 1 / texture boost 0.98 it was too much. I did ask if anybody had any better ideas, I've been cleaning for 4 years but I'm 95% self taught and nobody's ever seen fit to tell me a way around that problem.
Would have responded faster but Virgin Media internet is fucking unstable.

Sorry for the late reply, I used burn/dodge. Dodge (midtones) first to light up the dark zones and then burn (midtones), if necessary, the lighter area you might have created between the dodged parts.

really overdenoised, i would never recommend using clean 3 on color pages tho, it destroys a lot of details, also that page is really low quality, the best you can do is a little of surface blur and vibrance/levels/curves etc. Here's an example of a good page.

Have to work with what I got man, my research only turned up one copy of it on all the sites and that was the highest resolution one. I love cleaning but the desired end result I'm trying to get is more of a vague concept rather than something I can measure which is the opposite of what I'm good with, I struggle hard enough just trying to understand the lingo really. I've no idea what you mean by vibrance or curves, a small idea of surface blur and think I know what you mean by levels.

Uploading about 3gb of raws for various series rip internet connection

Cool, thanks. Which ones are you uploading?

Is there any standard format for TL scripts, thinking of possibly doing some at some point soon, but I've no experience photo editing and such so I was just going to post scripts, but don't want them to be horrible to work from if anyone decides to ever use them

>>120699592
Use txt, word, google doc, pastebin or something.

So typesetter knows in which bubble to put text without doubt.

I really don't understand embedded profiles. I keep it, any change I do to the levels makes the blacks look like petroleum, if I scrap it and use defaults it works fine but the colors are different.

>>120700786
It should only be done in cases where there could be any doubt because of no speech bubbles or something like that, but if it's a regular panel then transcribing it to Kanji seems like a waste of time.

However, I guess if there's going to be someone doing translation checks then in that case it would be handy.

>>120700290
>>120700596
None of the translators I know do that. That seems like a huge waste of time.

We just write the translation in the order it will be read. Sometimes the translator notes who the speaker is.

Wait that's odd, why does it save it differently from what's seen in PS?

>>120701126
The color profile is messed up.

>>120701126>>120700846
Switch off color management, and if you use saving for web, be sure to remove "convert to sRGB".

>>120701089
Translator(s) from /ak/ do that. If anything, that forces to waste time removing japanese text to check spelling and not clog text visually. If there's potentially can be confusion in panel to where put what text, then there's translator notes. Though I have yet to encounter such manga where it would be necessary. Probably some shoujo/josei/hentai.
Also it can be useful to separate panels, and set + before side/background chatter text and sounds.

yo, can you share your psd?

Momo's scripts usually are in the panel and balloon order.
