Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate English patch 1.1

I’m pretty sure that most of you remember that we said we would release an updated patch for Koichoco at some point in the future. Well, it’s finally here! Big thanks for lostmynic and binaryfail in particular for picking up the few final finishing touches and making this release possible.

This patch contains the following updates compared to the original 1.0 patch:
– Fixed Mifuyu route, the 1.0 patch had a slightly older version of the route included.
– Fixed a censored CG that was accidently included from the all-ages edition.
– Fixed several translation issues in all routes.
– Other typo and QC corrections in all routes.

Big thanks for all of you who reported bugs and typos to us. They should all be included in this update.

Windows 8 & 10

We also received a lot of questions from people trying to get the game running on WIndows 8 or 10. Some have no issues but others can’t get it work. Unfortunately we can’t really provide support for anything higher than Windows 7.

Supported game edition

All editions of the game should be supported (Regular, Limited ED, DMM, TV Memorial, The Best). But the support for the TV Memorial and The Best is limited. The story is fully translated but some pop-up messages and a few other minor things aren’t supported.

Installation instructions

We recommend using a fresh game install for our 1.1 patch, but it should work on installations that have our 1.0 patch installed as well. That is, if you kept the “Backup” directory that our installer made when you first installed it.

We have no all-ages “safe” edition available for this 1.1 release.

Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate English patch 1.0

It’s been a long ride but it’s finally here, the 1.0 patch of our fan-translation for Sprite’s Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate (Or “Koichoco”). For us this marks the end of an enjoyable project that started small and simple, but ended being much more work than we originally expected. Something that eventually resulted in long waits between updates. Buuut, let’s not go there today, right now you’re probably only here for the patch.

Before I can give it to you however, there are a few small notes to make:

First I’d like to thank the entire team for all the work they put into the translation. Thank you for all of your precious free time out of your day-to-day schedules.

Second, I’d like to thank you all for the support over the years. I’m not sure the patch would’ve been released otherwise.

Next, we shouldn’t forget to thank Sprite for making this beautiful game. Make sure to support them whenever you can!

Lastly, we didn’t get to polish the patch as much as we would’ve liked. If I had a choice in the matter it would probably never be finished. Nonetheless, we are currently happy with the final result.

Compatibility

Now, as for compatibility of the patch; It’s at least compatible with the regular edition of the game as well as the TV Anime Special Edition (Memorial edition), though the latter will have several minor UI images untranslated.
It’s also compatible with our previously released partial patch.

Installation

The patch will come with an automatic installer that you’ll only need to point to your game’s installation directory. It’s recommended to run the installer over a fresh installation of Koichoco and to make a backup before you do so (no whining if you didn’t listen.)

Known issues

We’re aware of several images on the extras screen that aren’t fully translated, but other than that you should be ready to go.

Versions

We didn’t get to do a full all-ages version for you this time but there is a “Safe” version available that has all of the h-scenes removed, but nothing else. So there might be minor nudity in other CGs and the extras screen is left untouched.

It’s finally here

About two and a half months later we can now present you with our group’s first partial patch. This patch for Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate (PC) will translate the game’s initial playthrough (Common + Chisato) and the game’s interface. You should not run into any Japanese text if you start with a fresh install. (You can delete the files in SystemSaveData if you want a fresh start). The patch is considered a BETA release and while we’re happy with the overall quality it may still contain typos and other minor mistakes.

Patch versions & OP

We’re releasing two versions of the patch. The original version and a modified “All-ages” version, which has the explicit scenes removed and some minor CG changes. You’re free to choose whichever version you’d like to use.

Apart from the different versions we’ll also provide a separate download for the game’s OP. You’re free to download this file and copy it to your game’s root directory where the game will automatically use it in-game. We’re offering it as a separate download due to its size and video quality. The hardsubbed version is of lower quality and people might choose to view the OP in its full glory. If you want to see the subbed version on youtube you can click here.

IRC
Along with the patch’s release I’d also like to mention our IRC channel: #BasicTranslations @ irc.rizon.net. You can find us there if you a have comments or questions about the patch.

Download & Requirements
– The patch requires an unpatched Japanese version of “Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate”
– Roughly 600MB of free disk space
– Please note that while the installers will make backup files it’s strongly advised to make a backup of your game first.
