how to make combo of dll?For those who are trying to play on Win10 and game isn't working.
Use this combo of dll (make copy of original dll and unzip it to main dir).
It should work with English subtitles in Fullscreen ONLY (windowed is bugged, on 16:9 monitors it will be stretched).
You need to open it in YOUR REGION (DON'T use Applocale).
Also check your Registry - you need to set correct folder structure to play this game (error with no config file to open).
It took me 2h to test what dll combination will make it fully work.
EDIT October 05, 2022 about [VIRUS]: There is false positive virus alert by VirusTotal (_alt.dll is flagged by online Malwerbytes).
I tested it with Malwerbytes (premium trial, installed on my PC) and gave no positive raport - files are clean.
Probably it's because antiviruses hates archives with .dll files.
Just paste 2files from .7zip to game directory where .exe is and override the files.how to make combo of dll?
I ran into this problem (the message is something along the lines of game options not being readable) and have a guess as to what causes it. Even the English game needs to be run through a locale changer to ja_JP from the first launch, as otherwise in some way or another a config file is going to get miswritten and the game is going to have trouble launching again. I got around this by just reinstalling the game, but I'm not sure if your own save can be preserved through reinstalls (i.e. is the save file part of the problem?)View attachment 507778
Anyone know whats causing this error. It launches then CTD's right after.
Just had the same problem, thanks for sharingHey so When I try to run the game nothing happens. it never loads and never does anything. I have tried several different downloads (though they all seem to be the exact same .ISO file as this one). I have unistalled and reinstalled. I have the D3D9, D3D10core, D3D11, and DXGI .DLL files in the folder. I have tried both the 64 and 32 bit versions. On windows compatibility mode Win XP ser pack 3. nothing seems to help.
I'm using windows 11.
Edit: Discovered the fix. If you have 2+ monitors Hit Win key + p and disconnect all but one. it doesn't like multiple monitors.
tried all methods, but also this at lowest resolution performance mode, no compatibilty things, i run Rapelay English.exe with my second monitor unplugged and using windows 22h2 19045dont know if you ever got it to work, anybody that still has low fps, D3D9.dll file mentioned on this thread no longer works, to get the game to work....
1.You must be registered to see the links
go here and download "dgVoodoo v2.62.1", if theres a newer version it should still work
2. open and navigate to ms/x86
3. drag and drop the D3D9.dll file to the games main directory
if its working you should see a watermark in the lower right corner of your screen
also the game does not support multiple monitors, it wont start unless disable the other monitors, in windows 10 you can use *windows key* plus P
I used dgVooDoo and it works very welli cant download file lag fix
Thanks for the fixJust had the same problem, thanks for sharing
Yeah, can confirm this method works. The only additional setting that I did was Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode (the 3D mode stuck on black screen when you load the save without this), the 3D mode still run smoothly on highest provided resolution and quality texture for me. Using windows 11 22h2.FIXED LAST MINUTE
Was about to give up and install Windows 7, but I tried installing DXVK instead and it just works now.
The others methods might work for you, they didn't for me but its probably because I'm on the latest version of Windows 10, so this might only work on that and Windows 11. Download latest release here (2.2 at time of writing),You must be registered to see the links, go into the x86 folder and drag everything to the folder with the RapeLay English.exe executable. Start the game, Profit.
EDIT: Also use Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode, and disable your second (or more) monitor(s). Also try low resolutions first
EDIT: 32bit resolution made my game start on a black screen and make my mouse unable to move. select "16bit" resolutions.
