Since one doesn’t want to replace the voice1 file while copying the English patch wouldn’t it be easier to just First replace the English files and Then change up the voice1 file?

One thing I want to ask is, why I can’t use Crea’s fix patch, no matter before or after the copy of the patch to the installation folder?

Do not delete anything from the game installation folder, or I can’t guarantee this will have a chance of working for you.

I found a fix for the DirectDraw error that doesn’t make you have to use a virtual machine interface that will make you have to download a new OS and make you have to switch between your OS and a different OS every time you want to use the game.

That fix can be downloaded from here:

To fix the problem of the game freezing on a black screen and crashing on startup, I looked for a fix which I finally found.

I replaced the voice1.pac with a correct voice1.pac from here:

It seems the one in Erogedownload’s files is missing around 300 megabytes of data.

When you run the game use the DuelSaviorMod.exe instead of DuelSavior.exe which doesn’t even start the game and instead of Duel Savior.exe which only gives a white screen with a DirectDraw error message.

_______________________________________________

Follow the Instructions below in order to run the game successfully:

1. On a fresh installation replace voice1.pac in the game folder with the voice1.pac you downloaded from here:

http://games.seiha.org/duel_savior_files/

2. Copy all the files from the English Patch WITHOUT overwriting the newly replaced voice1.pac.

3. Copy the 2 DLLs and DuelSaviorMod.exe from the DirectDraw Fix you downloaded here:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/9x4z0uwx2bz2gd4/ds_wineddraw.7z

4. Open the game using the DuelSaviorMod.exe

_________________________________________________________

Note that using the DirectDraw error fix will only lead to a Black Screen and the game crashing on startup, you MUST add the Black Screen Crash on Startup fix then without overwriting the Corrected voice1.pac add the other files from the English Patch folder, then add the DirectDraw error patch and use the DuelSaviorMod.exe to play the game.

Im too lazy to try, but one fix might be to run it in a virtual windows 7 on windows 10. Might fix the problem but I’m not too knowledgeable on how virtual pc stuff works.

Don’t worry admin – I found a website which told me my problem….according to it it’s pretty much impossible to play Duel Savior unless I have windows 7, which isn’t possible (not going to the extent to use a virtual computer – seems way too confusing). Here’s the website I found for anyone else with this persistent problem: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-gaming/directdraw-was-deprecated-in-windows-8-but-i-need/d21d6775-1006-4da9-a642-39553b286a49?auth=1

Help Please Admin >.<

I think he means a virtual machine with windows xp
