    i got a problem, everytime i start the game it crashes and an error message tells me that the rscript stopped working or something like that, any idea how to fix it?

  2. Shunrei says:

    works perfectly, the installer took a long time to install so please be patient, but its worth the result

  3. HAC says:

    You need to make a note about video codecs for the guide. If you don’t have the proper codecs installed the game will hang and eventually crash upon startup. The only solution thus far is to rename the mov folder to something else and bypass the videos (removing or renaming the videos themselves doesn’t work.)

    IF anyone knows specifically what codec these vids need that would be helpful as well.

    First thing, I’m spanish so excuse my english. It seems I can play almost perfectly the game, less one little issue: text. I forgot how it was called (remember that I’m spanish, I think it is something like “text wrap” or so) but the letters are “desorganized” and it’s really a pain in the back to read like that. Do I need to install a specific font or something like that?

    Thanks in advance,
    Suiko

      Nevermind it. I tried using “Applocale” and the problem is solved. Self-note: next time, try everything before posting. :P I feel like such a noob……
