Muv-Luv

I am also have major issues installing the game. I have followed the "MuvLuvInstallGuide" found on the interest but it doesn't seem to be helpful or working. I can reach the point of the install guide saying to leave the box "Run Muv Luv 1.0" to finish installation.

Installation however does not continue, I get the message a message in Japanese, the same one that seemed to indicate that installation was completed before hand but that is all. The game will not launch as it seems installation is not in fact complete.

Can someone please provide help? Thank you all.

sorry for the n00bish question, but how do I save ingame?

nvm got it

The game stops working when going on the date with sumika and you start watching the super sentai show. Any suggestions?

So I did the setup, used the English patch to set up the game, and all of a sudden, when I start the game, I get errors. SOMEONE HELP!

After trying several stuff I'm unable to install the game, apparently the setup.exe file is 64 bit and I need a 32 bits, if you could post a 32 bits please or something, because I have tries pretty much everything else I maybe wrong but it alway tell me to check if I have the correct type of file so I have no other clues

I'm runnning on W8 how to do to install the game ? I have a unreadable error when I want to install it ._.

The 1-click file has been deleted, plz reup, thx you so much admin-sama !!!

Hate to ask again but can someone share their experience during installing this game?I didn't manage to install this game after trying installation tips.My antivirus always get in the way and the only time I managed to install it only when I disable the antivirus but when I enabled it again the application file to start the game automatically deleted by the antivirus even though I've already made antivirus exception settings.Please help if anybody have a very useful way to overcome this problem.By the way I use AVG Internet Security in my computer.I really want to play the game.....

How is it we install this? when i try to mount the muv-luv extra img file and run the setup it comes up with a error saying that the version is not compatible with the version of windows i am running, then when i try to run the Muv-Luv CDD file, the setup appears but when i press install it my AVG program blocks it saying its a trojan (file 11) and then the file gives F:(Japanese letters) 11.exe (Japanese letters) and then after hitting a popup more japanese letters appear :/

I have tried running the english patch but when i have the IMG file mounted, it says it is not the correct version :S can someone please help me? i have been looking forward to this game for quite a bit (took long to download)

If you're having trouble installing and changed locale already, grab daemon tools (I used the free lite version) to mount the images, then launch the patch to install everything for you.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

I've downloaded this game years ago and so far, this game is the best VN I ever played. So to Install this game, this is what I did on Windows 8.1 with AVG antivirus.

0. Change your locale to Japanese

1. Disable AVG antivirus

2. Mount Muv Luv Extra & Install on the default directory (Just hit Ok or next, it should be fine)

3. Run English patch (The 29.5mb file)

4. Exclude the installation folder from AVG scan list? (C:age)
To exclude it on AVG. Open AVG > Options > Advanced Settings > Exceptions > Add Exception > Exception Type = Folder Then find the installation folder.

5. Exclude the Muv Luv application from AVG. Open Avg > Options > Advanced Settings > Exceptions > Add Exceptions > Exception Type = File Then inside the age folder select the muv luv application \マブラヴ11\

6. Mount Muv Luv Unlimited. It contains a single file \マブラヴ11.rio.002\ copy it in the installation folder and hit REPLACE.

That's about it, hope you can play it ASAP. If the installation process display some kind of errors, it might be because of your antivirus. If yours isn't AVG, you have to find a way to exclude the folder and application.

Can I use a flash drive (UBS or Thumb Drive) instead of a disk????

I got a message from AVG that マブラヴ11.exe is a trojan and it won't let me install. Any solution?

MUVLUV_EXTRA.IMG file is broken. fix please

my muvluv_extra.img is broken too, can you tell me how to fix it ? or should I redownload it ?

This vn is playable on Windows 8 and here's how I got it to work. If you are looking for installing instructions, they are already posted here so I'm not gonna write them but here's solutions for other problems. My main problem was the game crashing on end credits and on Sumika's date and because you need to complete Sumika's and Meiya's routes to unlock the Unlimited route, I couldn't finish it before I found these solutions:

1. Don't go on a date with Sumika. Choose someone else and you can still finish Sumika's route.

2. There are other possible solutions to skipping end credits (sometimes worked fine) but here's how I did it: Before the end credits start to roll, just rapidly click left mouse button and Ctrl key to skip the credits. I was surprised that this worked so I tried it again and it worked again (I did this on Sumika's route). After that the main menu picture should change and you are able to play Unlimited (when you have finished both routes).

If anyone has any problems or questions about the game, just reply to this message and I(or someone else) will answer to it. Thanks for admin for posting this great vn.

if you use powerISO,it wont work. please use daemon tools, mount the iso file n install it following asch weiss instructions.

Thanks for creating the \Installation Guide\!!! You're an awesome human being!

-question mark?

i used to installed the game succesfully ,but now ,somehow it doesn't work anymore .Do as the guide says ,but when the installation starting ,it move from 1to 100% in 1s and say sth like \loader couldn't initialize service \.wonder is it because of my pc or this game only support win 32 bit ?

SO I saw that many people have problms with this? just mount the extra disc put the files in the game folder run the setup and then the english patch , it worked for me

I could not run the setup, and there was a 'this app can't run on your PC' error message. However, when I mounted with daemon tools lite instead of virtualclonedrive or wincdemu, I was able to run the setup just fine. Apparently it has to do with how UTF-8 files are handled by the different programs. Hope this helps.

Can somebody help me out with this game? It keeps on freezing on the part where you take Sumika out on a date and watch the show.

How should i install when i download the part 1 to part 12 rar??i m using window 8

how can i get this game to run on windows 8.1?

i think ive tried everything and followed every guide here and still no luck. Either I can mount the disk image because its corrupted, or i cant get disk two to be recognized...someone help please

Well.. this certainly works even on Windows 8.1 and I got it to work past the same crashes that everyone else gets. Using the english patch as the method to install the game just never worked for me, saying that the 2nd disc that I mounted was not letting me install.

This is what you all need to do, change your system to japanese locale and restart. You have to have your computer on japanese locale just to run this which sucks but you can always remove and change it back after you're done with this. Then mount the .CCD file then double click that mounted file to open up the program with the "install" "uninstall" those kind of buttons. Click install and keep pressing next and make sure you install it to the location of your choosing at the part where it shows you the remaining size of your drive and your necessary amount of space to install. after all that's done, double click the english patch and it will automatically find your install location and keep pressing next until you're done. Now you can play Muv Luv Extra.

There are 2 annoying crashes that happen when using windows 8.1. It crashes during the date with Sumika and right before the end credits in Meiya's route. If you want to not crash right before the credits, right click on the desktop icon of muv luv and go to the compatibility tab and chose Windows XP service pack 3 then check reduced color mode and pick 8 bit. Now run the game again and hold down CTRL and spam click and the credits will now roll instead of crash, you can always save it after that part then change the settings back (disabling BGM, voice, sound, and graphic effects might also prevent the crash). The Sumika date crash can be passed by just choosing another person to go on a date and you can continue going her route as if nothing happened.

Muv Luv Unlimited will now unlock and it might be a problem for some. For me the file for the Unlimited part of the game didn't even exist for some dumb reason.. and it ended up not even being translated. This is what I had to do to get it to work. Mount the .CCD file that you used to install the game in the beginning and this time click "uninstall". Afterwards, install the game again in the exact same location you did the first time and run the English patch once more. NOW.. you will still have your save game files and it will still show the Unlimited style Title screen, this time start a new game and click Unlimited again and it should say something with the options "OK" and one other thing. Before you press "ok" mount the file called "MUVLUV_UNLIMITED" or whatever thats like 1.4 GB and now press "ok". You will have a bar showing that something is installing. And now it should be translated and working. Hope that works for anyone having trouble because holy shit did I get frustrated trying to get this all to work just to get to Alternative and play that :)

Got the installation to work after some time on my 64 bit windows 7.
-I did do locale Japanese, though I'm not sure if it was required
-I HAD to disable my antivirus (It wasn't AVG) for installation to work.
-I mounted the three main files using daemontools
To begin installation after all of the above, I ran the english patch/installer.

Hope this helps those struggling. I was about ready to give up on it until I realized I had to disable antivirus before installation worked appropriately.

What a pain in the arse! I don't know what the cause or what exactly makes this work or not, or even if all of these things are necessary, but I finally got it installed on Windows 10. I haven't tried for bugs & crashes yet, so can't speak to that point.

I installed NTLEA which is an alternative to AppLocale that can add \run in Japanese Locale\ to the right-click menu (and works on Windows 10).

I mounted both disks in Alcohol 120% (Daemon might work just as well), but when I tried to run the English installer, it would not see disk 2, regardless of that. Given what I did below putting them in a folder, I'm not sure this is actually necessary.

I tried running the regular installer with Jap. Locale, and it gave an error instantly, but I tried just copying all the files from both disks into a single folder on the main hard drive, then ran the Setup.exe with Jap. Locale (right-click, as admin, etc...), and it finally installed. Not sure if it had to do with me trying to install it from a different HD or not.

Then I ran the English installer, which saw the installation and then poof...worked.

Why can't i download the game?? When i try it just gives me The requested URL could not be retrieved. Help pls.

help guys finished muv luv extra tried to play unlimited but message comes up and it says something about unlimited and DVDROM It gives me thre options yes no and cancel, if I press cancel it gives me options to abort retry or ignore, tried to mount the unlimited iso then re-open the game again tried it still the same

I got it! On my Win10 system, it seemed like it wasn't going to work. But there was a really simple solution. I did the install of extra, then patch, then copied and replaced from the ultimate disk. It wouldn't work. The whole Ignore/Retry?Cancel spiel. After thinking a little, I mounted the Extra disk again, and then clicked the desktop icon again. VIOLA ! It loaded the rUGP gaming system, and started perfectly! Even after dismounting the EXTRA disk, it works fine. I haven't played thru yet, so I don't know if there are issues during gameplay.
