Can you attach a screenshot of game files ?

Perhaps it is the type of installation. Attached regfile in OP.

I don't know. Compatibiity mode? run as admin? Removing the patch no error ?
Thanks for this, but I've been having trouble running the game - it keeps crashing after the intro movie before getting to the main menu. Sometimes I can get actually get to the main menu but then it crashes when I click 'new game' lol.

Can you post what OS you're running and what your CPU and GPU are? Apparently, the last user posting on and had the same issue.

These two pages discuss additional requirements related to the installation path: (I originally installed it in "c:\temp")



The first time I ran the game on windows 11, it worked correctly. The text appeared correctly in Japanese.

However as I started testing with the translation, maybe when I launched it in a different way (locale jap as admin or whatever), something got corrupted with the system fonts, which in my opinion causes the random crash. You can check that the fonts are corrupted from “settings” of the main menu.

I tried to change the locale of Windows 11 to Japanese and although the fonts in the font selector did appear correctly, in the game they were still showing wrong and it crashed. I was investigating to see what else I could reset in windows 11 to to restore that hidden Japanese font setting in Windows, but I was unsuccessful.

So I finally used a VM (I chose an XPSP3 to save space).

So I initially downloaded the game files from the anime-sharing link in the OP, set up my system settings (Windows 11) to run the game properly and that resulted in the crash I described in my first post, even without the patch. If I manage to get to the main menu, I can actually open up the configuration settings and the fonts appear to look fine and not corrupted at all.

BUT I installed using the same files on an old laptop running Windows 8.1 and that ran the game perfectly fine, even with the patch. Interestingly, the 'scene replay' just causes the game to throw a "script error" and crashes when I choose any scene to revisit when I apply the patch and the translations - I guess it has to do with a discrepancy in the game checking for the correct scripts and sees the translations as invalid?

I also found the Chinese-translated version of this game and that ran perfectly fine on Windows 11. Unlike the Japanese version that I had to install from a disc image, the Chinese version was a stand-alone executable. The Japanese version also was running RioShiina v2.33 but the Chinese one was running v2.37 and had more options in the .ini file. I think there might be something incompatible with the audio and/or video, maybe with DirectX.

I tried to install it on a VM running XPSP3 like yourself but it was giving me an error associated with "DirectSound" - not sure what that points to but I'm gonna try a little longer to get it working.
