How can I install this game and translate it?

[Soul Hunter]

I've been interested in playing some of the more story based Visual novels that i've read about over the years and now i've decided to actually make an attempt at it. Problem is, I suck at downloading and getting games to work, and I have no idea how to translate it into English as I assume a good number of people here are doing.

I've downloaded the game Saint Estella Gakuin no Shichinin no Majo from this site, an older thread, and I have it still zipped. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get this game installed, working and be able to play it with English subtitles (I'm assuming and hoping that these three things are actually possible) preferably with a minimum of migraines? Also if it could be done without Youtube videos that would be much preferred, I can never actually make the instructions in those things work for me.

Thanks.

First to install games. The file you get is an ISO file, its like a virtual disk with the game in it. The next you need is a virtual disk drive to mount that ISO file. The free version of daemon tool lite https://www.daemon-tools.cc/products/dtLite is anti headache inducing program to use. Once you've done the installation and set the file association you can double click ISO files to auto mount it. Next is to set the System Locale to japanese if you haven't, this is in the Region and Language setting in the control panel. Now you can access the setup files and install the game.

Translating is the hard part. Look at this site https://kipchu.wordpress.com/2012/0...tools-for-playing-untranslated-visual-novels/
The idea is to take the text script from the game and use a program to auto translate in real-time, not very accurate unless you can understand japanese sentence structures. This is different than translating the game to english.

So basically as I play the game this will translate the text that appears on the screen into English in a side screen? Is it automatic, i.e does it just detect what text appears and translate it, or do I have to cut and paste the text from those top windows into the side translator?

From from I know, its a program that hooks the text from the game and auto translates it.
