An update on the RF4 file ripping. I have a lot of the voices and other sounds converted. Just look in the "stream" folder. Most of the music is in SEQ_.7z

What, is everyone asleep?

The old thread died long before the new one came up. No link, no love.

>can go online to post screenshots to miiverse while a game is up >can't go to settings or stats without quitting game Get it together Nintendo. I was trying to get SoS at first place in all areas, but if I have to keep quitting to check my gameplay that lowers the average.
Aaron Anderson
Only in RF3 is there a desert within walking distance from a frozen wasteland?
Jaxson Reyes
New Vegas. Or any other place with a really high mountain in the desert. Though I guess it really does depend on what you deem "walking distance".
Cooper Bell
>implying deserts can't also be frozen wastelands
Gavin Watson

>tfw I've never seen snow locally (I live in Phoenix, AZ)
Jeremiah Cooper
Best waifu coming through.
Luis Sanchez
Yes, Frey is the best waifu.
Thomas Rogers
Consider yourself lucky, snow is way overrated. You gotta shovel boatloads of the stuff and it makes driving dangerous, doubly so because every year people seem to forget how to drive on it.
Jackson Torres
You guys told me that Fantasy Life was a great game...
why did you lie to me?
Robert Sanders
I used to see snow locally when I was a kid though (we lived in other places). Being a kid, traffic and shoveling weren't too much of a hassle.
I notice it's not a hassle in RF games either. Imagine having to shovel snow just to move around. Every day.
Zachary Butler
Fuck you man, that game was a masterpiece and now it suffers a fate worse than runefactory's limbo
Aaron Hill
>that game was a masterpiece >masterpiece
I get that you liked it, but come on now
Xavier Cook
>fate worse than runefactory's limbo
What fate is that?
Liam Gonzalez
It is the only game I've ever played that made crafting a fun and meaningful part of gameplay, I'd say that's masterpiece worthy.
Connor Jackson

Josiah Cooper
>crafting a fun and meaningful
It stopped being fun from Expert onwards to be honest, too much stuff to cover
Elijah Williams
I enjoyed it, the dlc really improved the later levels too.

Better RF be in limbo than that.
Bentley White

Joshua Mitchell
I have yet to see fanart of human Venti and Pico as adults.
Logan Reed
Why would you want that? I've seen Pico with big knockers, and it wasn't good.
Jacob Butler
Are you looking for any human venti or just adult human venti?

Is modding possible yet?
Justin Bailey
What kind of modding did you have in mind? I'm sure it's possible.
Carter Nelson
We could uh, I don't know, make a community update to the game since it doesn't sound like RF5 will be coming any time soon. Stuff like new content, some combat rebalancing, filling some gaps where it gets a bit blatant that stuff got rushed. Just make it RF4++ or something like that. I think it would be nice.
Caleb Johnson
I just had texture/model swaps in mind but if this is possible it would be pretty rad.
Brandon Mitchell
Textures, models, sounds, and scripts would be easy to change. Game mechanics would be trickier since they appear to be mostly compiled binaries.
Jackson Foster
A reminder to believe in a RF5.
Aaron Smith
I'm still afraid they'd fuck it up somehow now that (some of?) the devs were absorbed into Marvelous. Making it on the shitty slow ANB 3D engine, or cutting the dialogue to HM levels or something.
It was really pleasant to see how Neverland improved the series by leaps and bounds each title. I always imagined they'd expand the store mechanics in 5, or cosmetics. Hopefully recycle all the past games' stuff for extra postgame content again too.
Daniel Cox
I'm working on doing some reorganizing. The folder will now also contain RF3 resources.
Also I've got 100% of the RF4 sounds and music dumped and converted.
Robert Martin
What would it take to revive this general guys
Josiah Hall
Rune Factory 5
Kevin Watson
A new game in AMERICA. So we're going to be cruising like this until this time next year, at the earliest.
Michael Stewart
Do you have a link to it?
Luis Perez
It's in the first post, the mega link under RF/Story of Seasons Stuff
Justin Rogers
Ah, thanks. It was kinda hard to tell since there's so many links in the OP.

Do you have all the sprites ripped? A high res copy of all the faces in RF4 is something I've wanted for a long time.
Caleb Long
Huh? What don't you like about it? I put a shit ton of hours into it and really liked it.
Joseph Peterson

You have? If it was on tumblr or dA, then yeah, probably.

I really want to dick Daria so hard.
What is it with elves that make my dick Durandal?
Tyler Carter
I meant adult human Venti, yeah.
Blossom kind of looks like old human Venti though.

Benjamin Kelly
Some of the voice clips from the characters sound pretty lewd.
Hudson Collins
Like Meg's reaction to Love Potion?
Julian Sullivan
The Love potion ones are there? They're all numbered so I can't tell them apart from each other.
Daniel Phillips
I don't know -- I'm just going from memory from the game itself. I don't know how to access it anyway, and probably couldn't because mac toaster.
Juan Rogers
>access it
I meant that list of resources.
Elijah Roberts
That top is really bizarre.
Brayden James
Yeah, it's from that cat cut-out fad from a few months ago.
Josiah Jackson
When will pixiv get a good meme? Is it Ellen Baker?
Dylan Anderson
>cat cut-out
i just noticed that
David Rivera
Seems like Ellen Baker is the new one.
Christian Cook
>Ellen Baker
Who's that?
William Watson
She's an anime styled character that's appeared in Japanese textbooks for learning the English language. As expected she's recieved a lot of lewds on Pixiv.
Blake Baker
>a lot of lewds on Pixiv
Awesome.

Xavier Rivera

Too late.
Aiden Rodriguez
Am I the only one who likes Selphy here?
She was the first waifu I got MC to marry in any HM/SoS/RF game.
Anthony Wood
She seems cute. Nice taste.
Camden Howard
From what I remember she's just a literature/english teacher who is uptight and curt to adults but open and approachable to children.
Cameron Scott

Bentley Foster
When we were talking about RFF a while back probably a year+ ago she seemed like the most popular.
Ian Ortiz
Thanks.
I think I've been around /rfhmg/ then. I don't remember that though. I started posting in /rfhmg/ around the time xseeddude was still regularly posting.
Dominic Adams
Man, Frontier is a great game, too bad it was stuck on the wii I really wished they had at least could've done a port to PS3 in HD.
Gavin Adams
Anyone here gonna at least pirate/import the new SoS when it releases in nip-land and give us first impressions?
Jose Morales
I am. My Japanese is elementary level at best, but I'll make my way through somehow.
Austin Scott
Cool. Be sure to let us know how it goes.
Jack Rodriguez
So should I just shove apple trees on all my fields until all my soil levels are maxed out?
Oliver Jones
RFF was my very first RF. I thought it was a stand-alone game and wasn't even part of the RF series at first.
I really enjoyed playing it then. Sometimes I still do, but the difficulty of the ice place and that Runey System really makes it hard to enjoy nowadays.
Cameron Gonzalez
>wasn't even part of the RF series at first
I meant HM series.
Colton Adams
I _really_ meant HM & RF series. I thought RFF was literally a standalone game.
(I gotta get it together like that one purple-haired butler.)
Chase Phillips
Anyone else really excited for "...3 Villages" ?
Jaxon Morales
Yes. Will be playing day one.
Jack King
>potato + peppers = mashed potatos MY MIND IS SO FULL OF FUCK
Hunter Young
WHO MIXES TURNIPS WITH MASHED POTATOES?!
Easton Anderson
It's in English already?
Jonathan Gonzalez
Japan.
Sebastian Flores
Nope. The Japanese version just has some bits in English.
Josiah Perez
Most of them should be in the faces folder. It might be a bit tricky to put together since there are a few base faces and the rest of the expressions are overlays.
Ryan Moore
So far they haven't put out any English screenshots. These are just a fan translating over the Japanese.
