why does it crash whenever i click newgame?
Most likely reasons are :
- exe isn't able to write the save (check that everything in the folder ain't in read only).
- Antivirus kick in (add an exception to the exe and try once to test)
- Windows have trouble reading the file due to foreign character in the path name or path name to long (try moving the game folder directly at the start of the HDD and rename it without any characters not existing in the OS working language)
- OS version is not compatible (try forced admin mod using the closest version to the OS version in use at the time of the game release)
- Problem due to the language difference between your OS and the game operating code (try changing your local unicode to JP, and / or use emulating tool like LE / NTLEA to start the exe).
