Muv-Luv

Muv-Luv

This game consists of two parts: Muv-Luv Extra and Muv-Luv Unlimited. Unlimited is unlocked after you get the endings of the two main heroines (Sumika and Meiya) in Extra.

Muv-Luv Extra:
Shirogane Takeru is a typical high school student with a lazy attitude and a love for the virtual reality mecha battle game Valgern-on. Even though he didn’t really wanted it, he is popular in school mainly due to his daily fights with his osananajimi (Sumika) attracting too much attention. His life takes an unexpected turn when he finds a girl (Meiya) he doesn’t remember ever meeting in his bed one morning. Whom later revealed to be the heiress of one of the biggest zaibatsu. She immediately moves to his house and starts changing his life for the good with her one-track-mind and unlimited resources…

Muv-Luv Extra, the main part of Muv-Luv, takes place in the same world (and general area) as Kimi ga Nozomu Eien and Kimi ga Ita Kisetsu. The Sky Temple family restaurant is mentioned and visited, and Suzumiya Akane makes an appearance.

Muv-Luv Unlimited:
One day Takeru wakes up late, wondering why Sumika or Meiya didn’t wake him up this morning. Not seeing any signs of them he gets a bit worried and goes out of his house to only see the town he lived all his life in ruins. After getting past the initial shock he decides that this must be a dream and decides to enjoy it as much as he can…

      1. sorry for the double post but how can i get a translated version of unlimited to work extra is running fine but no matter what i do unlimited only runs in japanese

  1. I ran into a problem when extracting. It’s asking for part6 and won’t let me finish extracting the Unlimited disc. Should I try downloading again?

  2. The last 2 extractions I’ve tried have failed. I tried with Sengoku Rance and now Muv Luv.

    Here is my error:

    ! C:\Users\\Downloads\MuvLuv.part4.rar: CRC failed in MuvLuv\MUVLUV_EXTRA.img. The file is corrupt
    ! C:\Users\\Downloads\MuvLuv.part4.rar: Unexpected end of archive
    ! C:\Users\\Downloads\MuvLuv.part4.rar: Packed data CRC failed in MuvLuv\MUVLUV_EXTRA.img. The volume is corrupt

    Same error during the Rance extraction on part 7. I’m guessing it’s a problem on my side but I’m unsure how to solve it. Thanks.

  3. I tried several times to download part 5 and it fails every time. Download simply didn’t start but link wasn’t broken. Is there any mirrors for that part?

  4. for ppl that are having trouble installing the game extract the file youll have a .ccd file an .img file a .mds file and an iso file mount the .ccd file and use the english patch download to install during the install ittl look like it isnt installimg to wait on it and take a break it fooled me. so just wait on it to complete then ittl ask for disc 2 mount the file muv unlimited .mds and hit ok that should be it enjoy

    1. My problem is that the patch doesn’t recognize that I’ve mounted the .mds file for disk 2. Does anyone have a fix for this? It seems to recognize disk one fine.

      1. I’m having the same problem as LT. It won’t recognize that I’ve mounted disc two and I just keep clicking “OK”. Anyone able to help?

    2. i’m having the same problem as LT. i’ve downloaded everything,unrared it, started installing from the patch. disc 1 starts installing then after a short time it says to install disc 2. so i mounted disc 2 and pressed ok but it does nothing, just keeps coming up with press ok or cancel. i read Another Thiefs post and changed locale to japan but still get the same problem.
      is there something i’m am missing or not doing right, i’ve never had any problems installing games before?

      1. forgot to mention that when i try to install the first disc it comes up with a mesage saying “this doesn’t appear to be the correct version of Muv-Luv DVD-ROM Ver (2004/04/30). Do you still want to patch this game? (USE AT YOUR OWN RISK).
        Did anyone else get this message? I clicked OK anyway but it still won’t recognize disc 2 when i mount it.

        1. OK, i finally got the game to install. Worked out that you have to unmount disc one before mounting disc 2 for it to work. BUT, now that it’s installed i click on icon to start the game and get the message
          “MFC42.DLL is either not designed to run on Windows or it contaigns an error.Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.
          I am running windows 7 ultimate, i think it’s 32bit and never had any problems before.
          I tried the troubleshoot thing and it comes up with,
          “compatable with windows xp (service pack 2) and tried running the game with those settings but still got the error message.
          Can this game run on windows 7? If so PLEASE someone tell me what i need to do to get it to work. Thankyou.

  5. I have the same problem as:
    ‘C:\Users\\Downloads\MuvLuv.part2.rar: CRC failed in MuvLuv\MUVLUV_EXTRA.img. The file is corrupt’

    But no matter how many times I download part 2 it doesnt change. The weird things is even after it gives this error it continues to extract but I can’t install the game after this.
    Please help.

  6. Is this the most complete English patch there is because i played all the way through only to get to the end and have it revert back to Japanese.

  7. Does this game work for 64 bit Windows 7? I found someone else’s upload and it doesn’t seems to work for me.

  8. so i’ve downloaded all the stuffand i’ve tried mounting it……and i’m not used to this kind of stuff could i maybe get some help please

  9. I managed to install the game and get to the menu screen. So far so good.
    I haven’t probed further yet, but my problem currently is that I can’t find a functioning .exe anywhere in the files. Everytime I get the game to run was from installing it (after uninstalling it) and choosing the [Run Muv Luv] option at the end of the installation process.

    What is happening and how do I fix it? ;_;

  10. I can’t install the game, because my PC says that the entire Muv Luv Unlimited is corrupt. Secondly, when I try to install EXTRA, then nothing appears.

  11. For Install:

    1) System in japanese (config windows)
    2) Load the image muv-luv iso with daemon (but not install!!!!!!)
    3) Download Patch and click. The patch say muv-luv is not installed and he install for you.

  12. And the game works with windows seven 64bit.
    Click right with the mouse in the patch and select “with the administrator right” (not sure in english, i am french).

  13. Can somebody tell me the exact order off wich iso to mount
    Because it keeps telling me put in cd 2

  14. Can someone help me??? I can’t play Muv-Luv Unlimited even after finishing 2 main heroine

    Everytime I choose Muv-Luv Unlimited it always error

    1. Unlimited is unlock if you see the menu game have a picture changed.
      And Unlimited load with the same .exe, it’s just you have 2 choice now: new game ==> extra or unlimited.

  15. Yes I already know that but every time I choose new game > Unlimited, it asked about something in japan and come up with choice abort, retry, and ignore.When I try to pick one of the three they just quiting the game

  16. Dammit. I’ve changed the system yo Japanese, started to install the game via patch, keeps telling me to insert disc 2, when the disc is actually in already. Any thoughts how to change this situation?

      1. That’s really nice tutorial. You mind if i add it to first post and later to erogegames.com installation guides?

        1. can you post the Screenshot when the error occurred? I’ve tried this method with other computer both with win 7 and XP operating system and it works just fine

          1. i am sorry i am fairly new to this but when i download the installation guide what should i do because no matter what i open it with it comes up in gibbirish which i cant read. if you could help me out at all it would be much appreciated thanks any ways though.

          2. Well, I “un-rared” the files and I mounted the .ccd image and tried to download it. However it came up with this.

            http://s1190.photobucket.com/albums/z450/Romulus5/?action=view&current=derp.jpg
            (I am sorry if there is some different way I am supposed to put up pictures but this seemed to be the best way.)
            I don’t understand what to do from here, all I know is that it will not let me download it.

  17. ty very much but one more question. when i started to install it my Norton said it detected a Trojan so i immediately stopped installing it should i just try to re download all the links or just ignore.

    ps. sorry for being such a trouble

    1. You’ve download it from here right?
      then it should be okay, i think it just false alarm from your AV

  18. @Romulus
    try this one, you need no-dvdpatch
    1. Make a temporary installation folder in your harddisk
    2. Mount extra disc and copy the contents to your temporary installation folder.
    3. run the setup

    now, if the setup process goes without fail, then you’re ready for the next step.

    4. try to run the game, if it asking you to mount the original disc install muvluv nodvdpatch to bypass it.
    5. Run the game, and wait until the setup(again) completed

    I know, When it comes to installation process this game is really pain in the ass. The solution for each person seem different, so it kinda make difficult to write installation tutorial for everyone

    1. Thanks for the help however,I got the No-Dvd Patch and it says the same thing about (Something Japanese)11.exe. I tried to do what you said but that didn’t help either, I’m not quite sure what I am doing wrong but any further help would be greatly appreciated.

  19. One thing worth noting is that this install appears to work differently with different mounting tools. For example, it worked for me using Daemon Tools but not MagicISO (system locale was Japanese in both cases, etc). When running in MagicISO (which I had because I use it for work) all that happened when I started the install was it spawned a separate command prompt window that immediately disappeared, too quickly for me even to get a screenshot of the error, if any, on it. And this is despite MagicISO working for other games as well, like Sharin no Kuni, Himawari no Shoujo.

    In short, even if you have a functioning virtual drive manager that works with other games, for this one it seems you specifically need Daemon Tools. Thought I’d mention this since everyone suggests you get it anyway, but they seldom say why.

  20. Is something wrong with the 1rst part it wont let me download it the others are doing fine so far

    1. It did that to me to but it goes back to normal if you close the visual novel then start it up again. Or at lest it did for me.

  21. Is it just me or is the 5th link broken? I’ve been trying to download it for the last 2 days but still no luck.

  22. PLEASE HELP. in muv luv unlimited, nov 1, which option do i choose?”because it’s an effective technique” or “because we’ll be fighting people someday”. no walkthroughs tell me!!

  23. Im having a problem mounting the muvluv extra ccd file with daemon tools. It keeps saying that its unable to mount the image file. Can anyone help. Thanks in advance

  24. Ok… so i extracted my stuff.. but there was a problem. I use Deamon, Mounted MUVLUV_EXTRA.ccd, the installation screen opened, i clicked install, i click next… next…next and then all of sudden it wouldn’t install… Like NO installing process at all.. someone help please. Im using a Vista computer, 64bit

  25. I’m having Danny’s same problem. I’m running Windows 7, so I don’t think it’s the operating system…

  26. Ok, incredibly noobish question here, but how exactly do I go about installing these? I know how to use Daemon tools, but my confusion comes from the 5 WinRAR files. All 5 seem to have the same files including ISO and IMG. Do I unpack all of them into different folders or the same one, or instead do I just unpack one and let the install do the rest?

    Normally I can figure these things out, but since my error messages are in Japanese I don’t have any clue on whether I just need to re-download the files or if I simply unpacked them incorrectly.

    (I’ve mainly been following the PDF installation guide here rather than using the english patch to install. I tried that method once, but after I mounted disc 1 and it started the install, it never moved. I came back about 45 minutes after it started and it was in the same spot. I had to CtrlAltDel it shut)

    1. What you do is get ur PC and throw it in the garbage jk xD… well after DLing the 5 files u extract the part1 and it will go all the way to part5 then u would get a .ccd, .img, .sub and the ISO file… first u mount the damn .ccd file and install it first in japanese(make sure ur locale is Japanese) then after that if u downloaded the English Patch above(if not download it) then run it, and just press next next next till ur done… then that’s just about it… if it asks for a disc then mount the ISO file… simple as pie xD

  27. unpack only 1 I unpack the first 1 then use daemon on it but my suggestion is install the Japanese version and don’t forget to put ur locale to japan its in control panel region then while installing it try disabling ur anti virus cuz for some reason mine(norton) was giving me error until i disable it then after u instal the Japanese version install the English patch its much easier this way cuz its a common problem in muv luv that the English patch cant read the disc 2 if u try installing it with the English patch so its better to instal Japanese first then use patch

  28. Ignore my request for help ^.^. It seems that the problem is that ONLY Daemon Tools works, while other Emulators,” in my cares MagicISO” dont seem to know how to run Muv-Luv.

    1. will no one help me on my problem???
      Ok… so i extracted my stuff.. but there was a problem. I use Deamon, Mounted MUVLUV_EXTRA.ccd, the installation screen opened, i clicked install, i click next… next…next and then all of sudden it wouldn’t install… Like NO installing process at all.. someone help please. Im using a Vista computer, 64bit

      1. I had the same problem with my installation onto Windows 7. I tried every approach I could think of, but I’ve just managaed to get it to finish.

        While I had the installer running (the image mounted with DAEMON tools) I opened up the Task manager to close a few processes in an attempt to speed it up. I noticed that there were two processes named after the installer (ml-r6) one of which took up an alternating amount of CPU the other none. I closed the seemingly inactive one and when I came to check if it had any result it was asking for the second disk.

        Now I’ve only opened and played the game to the first decision point to check it out but I found no problems.

        Hope that helps.

    1. hmmm i suggest reinstalling the whole thing(well uninstall it first xD) then if that won’t work try searching google for “mfc42.dll” or any other dll files u need and paste it on the same folder as the application file(i meant the .exe file that runs the game)

  29. Great game xD… I love this site lol… DLing Muv Luv Alternative… since the manga confused the crap out of me i’ll play the game xD

  30. Just tried to install the game, and I followed the guide through the next next thing but during installation, I got warning/error signs and installation is cancelled… Also,
    my anti-virus picked up a trojan file in the ccd of Extra…

  31. For anyone who cannot install or their set up just ends.

    1. Mount Muv luv extra ccd., but do NOT run set up. Just mount it with nothing else.
    2. Run the ENGLISH PATCH.

    The english patch should automatically install the game for you.

  32. I’ve downloaded the English patch to my desktop twice already, when it finishes, it disappears entirely. I used the search on my computer to search for ml-r6 but nothing comes up. Any idea why the English patch file I downloaded would disappear like that?

      1. Good advice polo2005, I disabled my AV before I downloaded, and it now appears on my desktop. So it turns out my AV kept blocking it.
