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…

This is old, fantranslated version. You should download this updated one instead.

  1. @draikox5 install “daemon tools” (you can find it if you search it in google).
    Use daemon tools to mount the images once you’ve installed it and then go through the install process.

    Hope this helps

    1. i tried to mount the image with deamon tools but the after the game installs it tells me that the “loader could not initialize service ” does anyone know what i can do to get rid of this problem?

  2. Im having troubles with it crashing on windows 8. Anyone else have the same problem? Worked when I had vista

    1. I found your problem
      Your using windows 8
      ffs what is wrong with you
      all bias aside, windows 8 is extremely new, problems are bound to happen with new OS’s

  3. I have a problem with installing Muv-Luv Extra on win7(64bit).
    The rugp doesn’t work. I have asked many people how to solve this problem, but they all told me that Muv-Luv can’t be installed in Win7 64bit system. So.i am wondering does anyone know how to solve this problem?

    1. I had the same problem, but I found out the game might not work
      if you dont use daemon tools, so go ahead and try and mount it using that, it should work

    2. What I did was install extra with daemon tools. Then I ran the patch. The game is working so far for me. I haven’t checked to see if the unlimited part of the game works but extra is working so far.

  4. i can’t download part 11.
    instead of finishing the last percent i get an error, saying that the source date could not be found.
    tried is several times, always the same result. every other part was downloaded without issues

  5. I got now a problem that the Unlimited part of the game isn;t translated? is that right or did i do something wrong in the installing?

  6. DONT READ IF YOU DIDNT COMPLETE THE GAME (light spoiler)

    hey, i just finished playing the unlimited routes, but at the end after kasumi was brought onto the space ship the thoughts of takeru weren´t subbed, could someone who speaks japanese or somehow happens to know what is said tell me what he said? it starts with something like “yume o mitta”, if that helps to know what exactly i mean.
    thanks in advance 🙂

    1. my minor knowledge of japanese points to this meaning something along the lines of ‘i have dreamed of this’ due to yume meaning dream. I haven’t actually played the game yet but thats the best i can get for now XD

    2. ”Yume wo mita” = Simply (I) saw [(Miru (to see) => past tense is mi+ta)] a dream (Yume wo => accusative postposition (wo) makes Yume the accusative object.) If you had written the full text, I would have translated it but I’ve yet gotta get this game to run on my Win7 64bit Os… xD

      (You can of course simply translate ”(I) saw a dream” with ”I dreamt”)

  7. Completed the Meiya route, it worked fine. Started a new game, when I get to the part where Tsukoyomi explains the Mitsurugi history I get an error in Japanese with the options to “Abort” “Retry” and “Ignore”. “Retry” and “Ignore” do nothing and “Abort” closes the window. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

  8. For Windows 7 64bit users run the English patcher and then mount Muv-Luv Extra and then Unlimited when it ask for Disc 2. I just did it and the game works.

    1. Didn’t work for me.

      My OS -> Win 7 x64
      My System Locale by the way is in Japanese.

      I’ll wait for your reply.

  9. i have literaly no idea how to do any of this. most of these words are new to me. i have tried the guide and serching google but i have yet to come across anything that shows me how to do any of this. please help

  10. Hi all.

    I’m having trouble installing Muv-Luv Unlimited on my computer. I was able to install Extra but I had to do it from English patch. It was not able to install unlimited for some reason …

    When I tried to install from extra setup, an error occurred and I was unable to fully install the game.

    Also I am using a Vista 64 bit.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    1. Hey guys I found a solution to my dilemma.

      First I installed Muv-Luv extra through the Patch.

      After playing the game and unlocking the unlimited part, you just need to mount the unlimited ISO onto “E” or whatever you use.

      Click on new game and select unlimited. It will ask you to insert the disc (you must mount it to a certain drive and it will mention it. You will probably see it through all the Japanese text). Install the game and you are ready to go!

      If the translation does not show up, just redo the patch and deselect the “install game” option.

      I believe that’s it.
      ps. This is what I did to make it work. I’m not a pro or anything, just advice from one fan to another!
      Enjoy the game!

  11. Extra is basically what every cliche’ visual novel -h-game- is in a nut shell and then sum. Nothing is really to be taken seriously, and even in the few serious moments the game has, I still found myself laughing because of just how not-serious Extra takes itself, making it next to near impossible for me to take it seriously… Extra is part 1 of the game.

    Unlimited. Now this is the meat and potatoes of this game. It is unlocked after you achieve Sumika and Meiya’s endings in Extra. But I would still play through Extra to unlock everyone’s ending. You’ll even see more flashbacks from Extra during Unlimited during certain situations if you do. So, while I know it’ll be tough – trust me, I was for me – I hated Extra with a firey passion… even the H-scenes are boring – and I’m not someone wishes all visual novels didn’t have h-scenes, au contraire, I loved Kara no Shoujo’s everything about that game’s H-scenes were just sublime…Extra just has no idea how to portray it to an adult level, it feels like something a teenager would think about in terms of ‘sex’… but enough Extra bashing – it’s actually important to follow the story once it branches off to each respective Heroine – it really does a great job of fleshing out their inner personalities, which help construct even more about their characters in Unlimited.

    Unlimited will set the stage for the greatest third part of the ‘muv luv trilogy’ if you want to call it that – Muv Luv Alternative.

  12. ****EVERYONE: HOW TO FIX 64 BIT INSTALLER AND MFC43.DLL ERRORS****

    It’s rather simple. Do not mount with Virtual Clone Drive, or any other mounting software.

    Use Daemon Tools Light only. For reasons unknown it causes it to error that way; it might be some sort of odd bug.

  13. HELLO!!! HELP PLEASE!! I tried to download this, Yin/Yang X-change Alternative, School Days and a few others and no matter which I try it tells me wrong IP Is this suppose to be premium users only or what

  14. hi, is it possible to reupload the download files to a different file hosting website? i can’t seem to verify the captcha for downloadani. You might want to try filefactory etc. Really looking forward to downloading this. Thanks 🙂

  15. Is there some special way of saving and loading? Because Saving absolutely does not work for me even after I put in a comment. Whenever I try to load, it says the file does not exist.

    I’ve searched multiple forums as well as read the previous comments to this site and it seems that either no one has the answer to this question or are avoiding answering it.

  16. Is Kimi ga Nozomu Eien or Akane Maniax ever gonna come out? I don’t see why Muv Luv and Muv Luv Alternative are here but not the other half of the series, so to speak.

  17. I just began unlimited, and noticed that all of a sudden takeru had a voice actor…but then it stopped a few minutes later. Is this supposed to happen? No spoilers please if this happens for story reasons.

    1. It only happens in certain places, such as when he’s having a flashback or dreaming (or thinks he’s dreaming, lol).

  18. I just downloaded the game, but whenever i try to install it my antivirus claims that the program has a Trojan and halts installation. What should I do?

    Thanks

  19. can i ask assistance,,,,,,,,,already finish downloading and extracting this game,,,when i mount it,,,,,,it contains only .rio file,,,,,,what does it mean….plss help……=((

    1. The file you are mounting is more than likely MuvLuv Unlimited ISO. The .rio acts as a switch for when you finish the two main stories of MuvLuv so it can go to MuvLuv Unlimited.

      If you are trying to play MuvLuv Unlimited first, I have no idea how to do that except by finishing MuvLuv Extra.

      Follow Big Gym’s method so you can play the game.

      If you want just a brief telling of MuvLuv Unlimited, then I suggest read the manga as it tells the Meiya route in the game. I did this before playing the game because I did not know that MuvLuv was a Visual Novel.

  20. I tried playing Unlimited but it’s not translated, is there somthing i’m missing or did I install the game wrong? I tried Big Gym’s adivce and it didint work so if you could help me it would be much appreictated.

    1. My question to you is “After mounting the MuvLuv Extra stuff (Disc 1) did you immediatly mount MuvLuv Unlimited ISO (Disc 2)?” If so, then uninstall, try again, and wait an hour or two after mounting Disc 1.

  21. I had the same problem with Guardian.Each time I tried to install the game my antivirus blocks it.I could only install at the cost my antivirus being disabled.What should I do?Any advice anyone?

    1. This is an adaption of Big Gym’s method.

      1. Uninstall MuvLuv if you already installed and failed at getting the game to work.
      2. Run the patch
      3. Run Deamon tools lite and mount MuvLuv Extra ccd or img
      4. Wait an hour or two for it to finish copying
      5. Seriously!!!, wait till it finishes and do not interupt it!!!
      6. After it finishes, mount MuvLuv Unlimited ISO
      7. When it finishes with the second half of install you should be ready to play.

      This should ignore the anti-virus alert. I had the same problem, tried this method a few hours ago, and wa-la…the game is working.

  22. For those who want to move to MuvLuv Alternative after playing MuvLuv Unlimited:

    I suggest you watch the anime “MuvLuv Alternative:Total Eclipse” as it gives you some insight on the politics that occur in MuvLuv Alternative. It also gives you a better picture of how the mechs and the BETA look.
    Be prepared for sadness and a lot of internal conflict with the protagonist. MuvLuv Alternative is long and serious and expands the heroines’ backstories from Unlimited.
    Alternative also shares some characters from other anime and VN that were made before the game was released.
    Kimi ga Nozomu Eien and Kimi ga Ita Kisetsu are two VN that have characters that make appearances in the game.

    For those interested in the adult content:
    There are only two scenes and they are at the near end of the game, like 50 hours after starting the game.
    If you want more info on the adult content go to the visual novel database and is pretty accurate.

  23. When I install the game I get an error called rugp. This is when installin git via daemon tools light after mounting. This error occurs while installing and it cancels the installion before it finishes.
    If I install via the english patcher, the game goes through and installs fine, but when I start the game up the rugp error comes up again and closes the game rightaway.
    Anyone help?

  24. Anyone help please, i’m trying to get this running on my macbook pro with crossover and the crossover lang app, but I only get to the point where it says insert disc 2. I figured mounting it on daemon tools would work but it didn’t, can anyone please give me a step by step for the mac.

  25. When I try to install, after an abnormally short time installing disc 1, it asks for disc 2, but even after mounting disc 2, it keeps asking for it. I’m using Daemon Tools Lite also.

    1. had the same problem
      i managed to fix it by changing my system locale and location to japan.
      hopefully that should work for you guys too

  26. It’s been months since I finished Extra/UL and Alternative, needless to say they’ve been my favorite VNs since then.

    However, I noticed that since I installed Alternative, Extra/UL wouldn’t work anymore, it doesn’t even get to the main menu (something about rUGP being a different version, I can’t read moonrunes so the error message made no sense whatsoever to me). Any of you have had the same problem?

    I’m posting this on Alternative and Extra pages as it kinda concerns both.

  27. weird i downloaded the game but when i mount the Muv Luv Extra ccd file with daemon tool everything seemed fine and i click that setup which is intall thing and i keep clicking next and next and then it install the game file but suddenly it stopped before 100% complete installing and i got an error like idk cuz it’s japanese word but i do know it saying Muv Luv 11.1 and bla bla bla idk japanese == what kind of error is that and what it said? am using window 7 btw

  28. yea so i downloaded the 12 parts but when i did what i did. it didnt let me play it like it didnt have the application icon for me to click and play

  29. i have tried everything even though i have finished all the routes i can’t get to unlimited also the extra sign on the start page is blacked out

  30. help, i don’t understand in what order i mount the files.
    I am on windows 7 and using japanese local.
    it never installs, it won’t register a disc 2.

  31. when i try to install it, it says that its not compatible with my windows version (i have windows 7 ultimate 64bit)
    as the guide said, i changed my language to Japanese, still not working

  32. edit. using daemon i got to the installation screen, but when i click install, a bunch of japanese text pops up

  33. edit.edit..
    i get to the, next, next part, but the it says. error, loader could’t initialize service

  34. I figured out why non-Daemon Tools mounting doesn’t work and causes such trouble for install – it’s because you need to mount the .ccd, while most other mounting programs mount the .img directly. I imagine that’s because the layout of the track on the cd is important in this case (clone cd makes a full copy of the disk, putting things exactly where they are on the original, while most other types of images simply copy the data)

  35. I have a problem that I can’t change my language to Japanese in the language menu and I need to buy a Windows XP Professional disc to get the option to install Japanese. Is there any way around that? I have Windows XP at the moment but it is the home edition and I do not want to fork out money for the Professional version when it is so outdated now. Any help would be appreciated

    1. Upgrade to Windows 7 or 8? If you could find this website I’m sure you can find one that has that.

  36. —Spoiler alert for Muv-Luv Unlimited—

    Damn, what happened to Takeru’s real world?
    Also, what happened to Sumika? I missed her bubbly personality…

    And by the way, that ending if you choose “Please live” (After the credits) is really sad… ;-;
    Well done, [Age]. Thanks to the admin for uploading this game too
