VN eroge crashing at end of first scene. Help?

[MikeBottleson]

Hey all, I'm playing a very niche eroge titled Plug Invade ~ Kyousei Kairaku Setsugou Jikken ~ Case 2 by Bias Factory and am having issues with the game crashing near the end of the first H scene. A box full of gibberish shows up which forces me to close the game preventing me from progressing any further.

This is likely an issue with the game code itself as this also happens on another Bias Factory game titled Crisis Cell ~Chika Jikken Shisetsu Sennyuu~ I've confirmed this only happens at the very first scene as the file I downloaded for this game was a completed file with all the scenes unlocked. None of the other scenes show this window and force me to close the game. It could be due to the games' ages (plug invade released 2012, crisis cell 2017) but don't know for sure.

Unless anyone knows how to fix this error, A solution could be getting a file of the completed game from someone else. Though that's unlikely as this is a very niche title. There's 2 other eroges in the series I'd wanna play but I assume they won't work either.

Additional things:

-I'm playing with the locale set to Japanese
-I've tried uninstalling and redownloading the game on 2 different pcs to no avail

Link to the eroge. May not work as I'm a newbie here but if anyone wants to download and try it themselves to see if they get the same error I can email you it. It's only in Japanese.

Unfortunately the option to run Locale Emulator doesn't appear in the eroge's context file after installing it, seems this is a common problem after doing some researching. Made a reddit post just barely to see if people can help me.

And for your save files, I can't properly load the game from them, it wants me to open it up like a regular file which shows me a bunch of code instead of taking me to the game. Do I have to extract them or put them in my plug invade file or something?

What happens when I try to open either save file:


Maybe try linking the actual game itself instead of just your file save as that's how I got a completed copy of Crisis Cell (another game made by the same circle)

Update: It's working perfectly! I figured out the emulator option was hiding in the show more options tab in the context file, now not only is my game running in Japanese but its not crashing at the first scene anymore and saving my progress. (this is my own save without your save files)

Thanks for all your help, now the next step is to get textractor running for it. I'm hoping it'll actually pick up the text now that it's actually being registered as Japanese.
