well, if you want to post DDLs im all for it. But with files these sizes, i think it's honestly better to just torrent then have to DL 10 individual rars. The time is probably the same, maybe a little slower depending on the torrent, and the amount of work involved, on both your part, the dler, and my part, the uploader, are about 20 thousands times less.
and i don't really think it matters which of the VNs are new, and which are old. Because if you don't have it, and you want to try something, dl it. I don't think it particularly matters whether its been there since the beginning or one of the ones i added today.
and regarding to your regards to school days hirohata: did you get it to work translated in english? if so, please upload whatever the hell you used, because the fact that i spent like 30 hours torrenting a 7 gig game, and then had to delete it because i didn't have the english patch, really bugs me. hah hah

Princess Waltz
Pretty damn good novel. Card-based RPG system, but it's mainly a novel. Kinda linear, but the story was good, great soundtrack, visuals were very well done, and it's already in English. Plus, TPB, why lie?

Saya no Uta
Yes. Gruesome... Really. Not for the faint of heart. Has Cannibalism, rape, murder, gore, etc. The story is really dark in itself, but still, it was an interesting read and I decided to provide. Patch link provided for English.
These are all ero so far. Wait, I think Ai Yori Aoshi doesn't actually have hentai. Can't remember.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ] [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] - Tsukihime [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] - Tsukihime Plus-Disc [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] - Kagetsu Tohya
Tsukibako. It contains Tsukihime, Kagetsu Tohya, and Tsukihime Plus-disc all in one. Patches to each provided.
I do have ddl links to Tsukihime and Kagetsu Tohya, already patched and no need for installation, on MU.
I might provide more later, but yeah. These are all torrents. The problem with ddl links is that an outside source is used, such as Megaupload and Rapidshare, and they constantly scan their files and if they see that it is illegal, which it is, it gets removed. Torrents are convenient for that reason.
Enjoy, and I'll return with more. Also, Falsum, I wanted to add to your already amazing thread with some that I know and played, but if you don't want them, I can delete this post later.
Whoops, some may have already been provided, but not added to the first post and I never read people's replies.

III. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
==============================
IMPORTANT: You don't have to install the game using it's own installer if you want to play it in english!
(However, you can use the game's installer if you want to play it in unmodified japanese form.)
You'll need:
-DVD-burning software (like Nero Burning ROM or Alcohol 120%) OR virtual drive manager software (like Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120%)
-some file unpacker utility (like Total Commander, WinRAR, 7-Zip or IZArc)
-enough free hard drive space (2.7 Gb with voice acting)
>Installation Steps (it's just looks long, but it's simple)
Step 1:
Either burn the UTAWARE_DVD.iso image file to a DVD (using the "Burn image file" option), or mount it with Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120% into a virtual drive. If you want to install the English Patch, close the japanese installer (if it started), and jump to Step 2.
If you don't want the English Patch to be installed and want to play Utawarerumono in japanese, use the japanese setup application, which should appear when the game DVD is inserted/mounted into a drive. If the setup doesn't starts automatically, locate and start setup.exe in the game DVD's root folder and install the game. Jump to Step 4.
Step 2:
Start [mirror moon & Soylations] Utawarerumono English v1.1.exe in the English Patch folder. The patch installer is fairly logical, choose your game directory in accordance with your free hard drive space. (Approximately 2.7 Gb is required with voice acting.)
When the patch installer asks for the original Utawarerumono DVD, locate the drive which has the game disc in it. It will extract the game files from the DVD as needed.
Step 3:
After installing the game (with or without the English Patch), you can apply the Voice Patch. If you don't want to, jump to Step 4.
To add voice acting to the game;
-locate the installed game's main folder (Utawarerumono)
-locate the Utawarerumono Custom Pack v2 Voice Patch folder
(I would recommend Total Commander for these tasks.)
From Custom Pack v2 Voice Patch folder to Utawarerumono folder;
-copy UTSOUND.SFS
-extract [krfsm] Utawarerumono Voice Patch v0.4.zip
For convenience you can make a desktop shortcut for utaware-voice.exe (now located in Utawarerumono folder).
Step 4:
If you want to play the game (eng/jap) WITH additional voices, use utaware-voice.exe, or
if you want to play the game (eng/jap) WITHOUT additional voices or you didn't applied the Voice Patch, use utaware-dvd.exe, and that's all.
Extras:
Also, if you wish, you can copy/extract the extra contents of Utaware Custom Pack v2 to your folder of choice. (I would suggest folders named CG Set/OST/Master Book in your Utawarerumono game folder.)
Utawarerumono_PC_DVD_Version_CG_Set.rar contains the game's CG pictures.
Utawarerumono Game OST.zip contains 24 game music tracks as well as disc cover/booklet art scans.
Utawarerumono Master Book.rar contains the scanned Utawarerumono official artbook.
Here's some animated images that I've made...

"Jack: Gwendolen, it is a terrible thing for a man to find out suddenly that all his life he has been speaking nothing but the truth."
There's a torrent [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. Should still be up and running I suppose. Currently, there are no groups planning on translating Fate/Hollow Ataraxia as of yet.
"IE is that program you use to download Firefox when you get a new computer."
tears to tiara is very similar to utawarerumo, it has one linear storyline, and from what i played, you can't divert from the story line to choose your own path or whatever. there are no choices, you just go where it tells you to. and in my opinion, the combat system kinda sucks, it hurts my wrist, and is too easy. but hey, up to you
and for those VN you requested, ill see if i can find them for ya hah hah
