Rance 2: The Rebellious Maidens

since this is a remake, this one is also the one called alice 2010 right?

Awesome, thx for all your hardwork admin!

I downloaded the game but whenever I try to play it I keep getting a black screen?

im getting a sys42vm file error with this game i download a new file to replace the old one in hopes it would get it to work but the error is still coming up

when i say new file i am talking about a new sys42vm file

can anyone help me i cant find the last two cgs?

yeah, how do you get the cg for the item store girl? something along the lines of finding the mimic's parents?

Admin, will you upload Rance 1 ?
Thanks for your hard work !

Admin I keep downloading the game only to have the error J is having. What can I do to fix it?

its in japanese ._.

Do I have to play in Japanese locale or something?
If I start the game all I get is moonspeak, and after that just a black screen....

As TruePerv already noted, it appears that the game is in Japanese even if the download description says "english prepatched".

We have to do something to enable the English patch... or it's a misunderstanding?

well I finally found the solution to get the game running
FIRST download it and extract it, preferably using winrar
Next is to change your locale to japan
for vista, xp, and 7, go to control panel, click on region icon, click change region, and then set it to Japanese.
After that, you restart your comp and try clicking on the extension

Well I finished the game. (Yeah I made the same dumbass mistake, thought it was in Japanese because of the intro. >.<)

Are there other Rance games, besides Sengoku Rance, that have been translated by the way? I know that a group is working/was working on Rance 3 and Rance Quest (Which is Rance 8 I think.)

But I also heard good things about Rance 6, and I don't know if there is a translated version.

just a question admin when i extracted the files i got an warcraft 3 AI data file with the rest of the files is that intentional or was it a mistake?

can anyone make a walktrough there i cant pass the 2nd stage where i need 2 find something 2 activate the teleporter!

when i start the game, only two Sys42VM popups happen. then after that black screen! please help admin. pleeeasse

forget about my previous post. its working now. i only change the system locale to japan. thank you admin. ^^

@need cg Do U know how 2 beat the death girl?

admin can u pls upload :Tail tale english trans coz i want to play it badly tnx

I dowloaded this game changed my locale to japan and it still gives me a system 42 error what am I doing wrong

I can not change my locale to japan, as i CANT get the files for it. Does anyone know anything else i can do?

help i cant seem to get the game to work even though i switch to japanese locale and reboot my computer and appolocal dosnt seem to work as well and i am using a XP system (Y_Y)

when i start the game it shows the black screen and just exits out (Y_Y)

for windows xp: use applocale
for windows vista and seven: change unicode to Japanese (Japan)

1. open control panel and click in "Change display language"
2. in the tab "Administrative", click in "Change system locale"
3. change the system locale to japanese
4. if necessary, restart the computer

in my case, it worked (although you have to play again some games because the old save files dosen't work in the new unicode)

Is there something I can do to get the numbers in game to display properly? The numbers in combat appear properly but the numbers in the status screen and in shops don't. What can I do to fix it?

Thank you Admin, I am in asia so i can't do nothing for now but to say thank you *sob thank you *sob

ah shit i can't play this game, not even when i changed my locale or whatever it is, i made everything into japanese and now my laptop is in japanese language with japanese region but i am still unable to play it, the extracted system file names are all in "___02.bla bla bla"
i don't know what to do anymore,change locale, change language, doesn't work at all.. God please help me..

But then my brain think something random, i change the "___02. bla bla bla" in the file name to "ランス０２.bla bla bla" and miraculously it works, so far so good. change all the unread (the "___" ones)file names to "ランス０２" and you are ready to go. once again, thanks for the game Admin!

edit: the game shows version 1.00?

I am trying to download from your links but the links dnt seem to lead me anywhere help.

sorry, but i already change the name as mentioned by Shurei and also change the appocale but it still show sys 42 error

Mediafire files are removed

i changed the name but still doesent work please help

Will someone please help me make this work and don't say change system locals it won't work

Is it possible for you to reupload the mediafire links?

Hey people, I have a problem with the .rar packs.
Whenever I try to unpack them with Winrar, an error pops up. Something about not being able to name the files. It renames them into ____02.ain for example.
Whenever I try to start the game, only unreadable text pops up.
I already switched to japanese locale.

I also can't unpack properly and it gives 36 errors :(
really weird -.-

I couldn't unzip with winrar either but 7zip worked. So try that or some other unpacking tool.

Oh.... i feel so stupid. Everyone please ignore my previous post in this page.
The reason why i only have 7 file after i unpack the file is because part2 are not downloaded properly thus making it corrupt. When i check the size of part2 that i've download, the file size is 190, on mediafire the file size was 191 mb, so basically it short 1 MB. Can you guys believe it, 1 MB. Only a few second more until finish, than suddenly the download went corrupt. Arghh....... I din't notice it before because winrar give me many error message about the file name, so i ignore the last message about corrupted file.... How careless i am.

P/S
For those who still have trouble playing this VN, especially the file name, here is the solution.

1. unpack part1
2. rename any file with ??? to ランス.
For Example - ???02GA.wai to ランス02GA.wai
3. Run the game. At first, you will be unable to do anything when you click your mouse or hit your keyboard except Esc, but don't worry, just wait until the opening is finish than
you can play this VN. ( this will happen only on the first time you run this VN, after that, you will no longer have to wait the opening to finish. Just skip it by clicking the mouse)

I get a Sys42VM error and black screen whenever I try and run the game.
-I have changed the file names like Ryoichi said
-I have my system locale in japanese, and have played many VNs before this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

never mind i got it :)
1. open AliceStart.ini
2. Search for the Game Code,
3. There should be a file called ランス02.ain
now this is the the difference, if you copy the ランス02 from here you will get what you see here, but what the game want was the "ランス02" from the AliceStart.ini. if you copy from alice start you will get a bit different string it's almost like there's a space between the 0 and 2
"ランス0 2" <=(don't copy this one though)
after this just copy it to all your "___" file and try it, it worked for me so could anyone verify it??

sorry for the long post and the bad grammar though :(

it worked for me also trauma, you need the special spaced 0 2

Can anyone tell me if there are other remake of the rance series? I guess if there's a remake for no2 there must be a remake for no1, right? BTW, what are the other contents of Alice2010?

Thanks

*Ak5shays*

Trauma comment works
Thanks!

Trauma's way work but just for the opening movie, when I wanted to play it, the cursor doesn't work, can anyone help me?

Hey, I have a problem opening the application. When I open it through .exe, it has an error message saying JAB and then jibberish.

That's what happens, and then the window is just a black screen. Please help.

Well. I've spent many hours trying to run this game. I don't have problem with Japanese locale but this prepatched version don't work for me. I've changed all names and stuff. Every time i get menu it's gray bg and white english menu but i can't click anything. Tried everything i found on net but it still don't work.

Would anybody help me?

wen i try to play it says it can't find AliceStart.ini , plzz help me );

aaah, thanks trauma you're a blessing, since I got it to work with your help :P

I get the same blackscreen, SYS42Vm thing.
My local is set to Japanese for a long time now...
note that I get lots of WinRAR diagnostic messages.. about 36 error..

Could use some help

Can someone explain a little more I couldn't quite understand what Trauma is trying to say.

the part one is corrupted or broken i think. i have tried a lot of times now but its still giving me a 14 mb rar file only and when i try to extract it says the file is broken.

i cant download either parts
all that comes up is:

These are the errors I got when trying to unzip it. Removed the directory, but the rest is as it appeared.

Nice game. thank a lot admin. I hope this site ast forever

I mean Last forever ^^

ah, i have change the name with ランス０２, but it no use, can u all help me? the game still error thought

Downloaded using Firefox, no problems. Extracted using 7zip, also no problems.

After files are extracted:
"Rename the “____02″ files with “ランス０２” and it worked."

Thanks.

I have a problem. I have renamed the folder with "ランス02" but i have an error or something that say Jab ... [Mz .]

Anybody who can help me?


Greetings and expecting a quick response,

Anybody knows the solution?

For me its not subbed and when it gets to the main menu all i see is a blueish background and the start, load, Cg mode, BGM mode, config, and End game seem to be in the wrong spot they are all at the top left corner and i can't click on any of them! help!

for me the game works fine after renaming a few of the files
rename all the files except these 3
___02GA.ald
___02GA.bak
___02WA.ald
renaming these 3 seems to cause issues as they will have the same name as other files in the download

the only problem i seem to have is that the bgm doesn't seem to play, it works during the intro movie but after that it doesn't the BGM mode causes quite a few errors too, but for those just wanting to experience the game.... i hope this helped, any info on getting the music working would be much obliged :3

oh... I tried restarting it after the video that showed in the start and it's playing fine now...but no music...just sound effects, bummer...well, at least it's playing! Thanks for the game admin!

@dekusuta: Write in google "hentai games no sound problem" and follow the instructions in "No saound in games ->Hentai games" link.


Good luck,

is this original or remake(2010)?

This can be work:

1-Rename the ___02 files with rance02
2-enter on alicestart.ini
3- in gamename put rance02,in codename rance02.ain
4-open rance02 and ignore the mistake and select the second choice (the center ??).

I know, my english sucks, but works.

ATTENTION!!! THIS GUIDE WORKS!!! SOUND WORKS WITH THIS METHOD!!!

1. Unzip your pants eh... files with winrar or 7zip. Don't pay attention to the errormessages popping up. Ignore them

2.) Rename every "___" or so to "ランス０２" line in your gamefolder.
ATTENTION: If there's a "GA", "BA" or "WA" at the end, dont forget to put it after ランス０２. That's the most common misunderstanding.

So one files name is ランス０２GA for example

3.) Start the game with Applocale or set your windows to japanese mode

@ Shikoku

Thanks for this,the game works fine with sound now
i'm sure i tried this before and it didn't work, yet it does now... how very odd, anyway, thanks again

is there no English Patch?

Say admin did you fix the two part .rars as of late? Since every time I tried to unzip them I always didn't get the ???02 files to be extracted at all. I mean if they were extracted I could rename them and all, but it's pretty much impossible to rename them while they happen to be in the .rar file itself.

Can you Torrent-ize this please....

The rar does not open

Whenever I try to run the game, it simply shows a popup menu filled with strange symbols, closing this window brings up another with a second set of strange symbols, closing that one leaves the application window pure black and I can't do anything except exit the game, any help?

... rereading, it appears as though the user another is having the same problem I am, can anyone help?

Ignore the last two comments, I got it working. Am running into the annoyance that numbers do not show up correctly in game though. Whenever I beat a monster it gives a message like: Received ...P experience and ...Q GOLD. And in my status menu it shows my level as "P". Any ideas how to solve this? I remember I had a similar problem in Sengoku Rance that I just ignored, but I cant see most of the numbers in this game.

copy the ランス０２ together with the number

my sound doesn't really work with the game, each time there is sound, it pops up with a window and then askes for a sound system, asking for which one to use. but it doesn't matter which one u choose it will always pop up. and it is especially annoying since in combat there will be a lot of sound, and it pops up every time there...

oh wait ... its just that i finished downloading rance 3....

Thanks man, it rally worked

thanks man it's works but i can't press any button to play it
and start load page not in fit size

i had the same problem and i fixed it using 7zip and only extracting part 1 then changed all the ___02 files to ランス０２ if it has something like ___02BA.ald or what not change it to
ランス０２BA.ald in other words only highlight and change the __02 parts.

this for if u have the system 42 problem or the white grey background thing where you cant click anything problem.

Could anyone tell me if this is the 20 year anniversary remake edition of the game?

Ok the menu buttons are all messed up i need help plz

The intro is not translated? :/

anyways, thanks for uploading

1. Unzip files with winrar or 7zip. Don’t pay attention to the errormessages popping up. Ignore them

2. Rename every “___02” or so to “ランス０２” line in your gamefolder.
ATTENTION: There are 8 files 2 of them have noting at the end so you put just ランス０２ but there are also 2 “GA”, 2 “BA” and 2 “WA” files at the end (not an extension but file name like\____02BA.ald\ you need to make it \ランス０２BA.ald\), so dont remove them! That’s the most common misunderstanding.

So one files name is ランス０２GA for example

3.) Start the game with Applocale or set your windows to japanese mode


To everyone trying to get the game running follow these instructions.

The title screen is all messed up, and I can't find a way to fix it... any help?

Man, the intro isn't translated. This is really a shit. it looks to have something very important in the game playthrough. I will not play this anymore. very disappointing.

hi, i've followed the instruction above and i still can't run the game, it said memory error or something, i've set my regional option to japanese, appreciate any help, thanks

okay here's your problems, you tell people to replace the ____02 with “ランス０２ but there shouldnt be a '"' quotes in the front goddamn. its just ランス０２.(whatever the file extension is) or if its BA or the letters then its ランス０２BA.ald etc. simple mistake in instructions causes lots of panic

hi admin do u know if rance 1 remake has been translated yet?

ok this is how it works for those who do not yet know the trick...
just open the file alice.ini
(seems that this is the configuration setting), then change the qoutation ????.ain into rance02.ain
save it then look for the filename ????.ain (written ____02.ain literally) in the same directory, change the ____02.ain into rance02.ain and DONE!
open the main game .exe you will see the 3 or 4 choices, click on the center choice and you're done..

remmber only the .ain file is the trick to open this game.

the .dll files will pop as you open the games but just continue clicking. it works well and also has sound. gudlck!

If you guys are wondering what happens in the intro since its not translated. Read the description above. It explains fully on what is going on.

Hi All,

Since I too struggled to get this working with AppLocale & renaming the __02 files, let me share how I got it working.

Credits goes to John V on Oct 2012. And here is a more english-friendly version what what he said. Thanks John!

Install Instructions
Extract .RAR's
In the extracted directory, do the following
1. Rename the eight files prefixed with "___02" with "rance02"
2. Edit alicestart.ini with notepad
3. Replace parameter [gamename] with "rance02" and parameter [codename] "rance02.ain"
4. Launch Rance02.exe, ignore the popup message, select the button "(the center ??)" and contine
Viloa, sound, music, eng patched :D
No need for App Locale
No need to run Rance02.exe in Wins XP Compability mode

Finally something that works. Thanks

It's pretty fun, but I still got a problem. Despite my best efforts most non-letter symbols in dialogue box don't want to show up, which is pretty frustrating. Could anyone help?

It looks like this:
http://oi58.tinypic.com/33cbrrl.jpg

when i load up the game main menu is all messed up for some reason anyone else have the same problem?

This is great but I would really like to download the original. Could you upload that one or at least the english patch so I can patch it myself? Can't seem to find it anywhere.

Still not working having Sys42VM Error Box
and display a black Window...

bad characters in text => run it with Japanese locale or use locale changing utilities (recommend AppLocale for older windows, and LocaleEmulator for newer ones)

messed up menu => error in file naming, basically all have to have same name beginning, menus are *WA.ald file

Sys42VM Error Box => run it with jap locale, since you have jap names in file names you cant run it otherwise, with english names you can use english locale, but get messy characters in text

I'm japanese.I want to play japanese text.Please tell me the way to change text.

Good,+it+didn't+work+before+i+read+the+comments

the game doesnt work after downloading and extracting with winrar the files seems to be corrupted renaming the __02 files ランス02 the game still doesnt work also while running the .exe with japanese locale
theres only 2 windows poping up one with 24vm with some giberish in japanese not giving up yet ill try to collect all of the rance games available

Tried everything advised here, nothing works, only get 2 Sys42 errors and black screen. Yes running Japanese Locale, yes ran applocale too, ran administartor mode, renamed all the files that were ___
Just a bad upload, imo.

Please teach me how to fix this the money is in symbol q and the exp is in symbol p...can anyone teach me how to fix this please I'm using windows 10

downloaded the links then extracted using 9 zip and got an error message but bad pathing but then it extracted anyways. ive gone through the steps for everything else but right when i start up the game i get an error that says DLL[ systemService.dll] and a bunch of Japanese after. cant find anything on this. am i missing a file? haven't tried re-downloading yet

edit* its actually certain files arent extracting when i do it and it because of invalid characters, i can see the files there when i open the zip but they won't extract, I'm using 9zip/winzip and neither will extract the files.how do i fix this?

I have no idea what to do to get this to work. I renamed the files to rance02 and went into the alicestart file and changed it to rance02 as well. However when I start up the game I get DLL[SystemService.dll] with some japanese text at the end of it. What do I do?

Im broke my mind, but repair this, Sys42 error JAB with 2 windows
1)rename 9 files( ランス０２ , ランス０２BA , ランス０２GA , ランス０２WA (use this for copy) )
2)Use english patch from vndb.org
THIS IS REALLY WORK

How I solved the issues:

Go to Windows Settings >
Time & Language >
Click "Language" on left >
Click "Administrative language settings" on right >
Below "Language for non-Unicode programs" click "Change system locale..." >
Change to Chinese (Simplified, China) >
Restart computer THEN ONLY extract the game file

Then play the game with Chinese locale and no more problems at all
Patch English translation if needed after extraction

can someone tell me how to extract the files properly :/
im kinda stupid on doing these stuff

it would be helpful if someone tell me how to extract it properly
i mean step by step
please respond i really wanna play this game :(

It works

Ive got the fan patch from alicesoft.fandom.com and replaced the _____02.ain with the patch file.
ThenI renamed every _____ file to rance02 .
After this ive got in the alicestart.ini and wrote before the .ain rance02 .
