Rewrite

Rewrite is set in the fictional city Kazamatsuri where treeplanting and afforestation have caused the city to become overgrown with trees and flowers in much the same way that other cities are filled by buildings. However, while most of the city appears to be rural, there are many traditional city elements as well. While set in a modern setting, the city also gives off a strange sense of nostalgia. The basis of the story is set in a high school setting. The first half of Rewrite primarily consists of the characters interacting in many everyday, enjoyable scenes. The latter half, however, is more serious, emotional, and carries a sense of mystery to the plot.

As indicated by the title, rewriting is the theme of the game’s scenario. The tagline for the game is, “Could it possibly be rewritten, that fate of her’s?”.

Ok. I solve this already. Create folder Key inside the local disk C and create folder Rewrite inside folder Key. Mount image 1 and 2, copy the folder GameData from both image and paste it to folder Rewrite. Then copy the Siglus.exe from NoDVD folder and paste it there. Run the english patch and you can run the game already.

"Mount image 1 and 2"
what the hell? I didn't get anything from here, could you please explain better? Mouting? Images? W-what.. Siglus? What

Lirg13 Mar 2013Reply

First, download the game Rewrite.
Second, get the software Damon Tool lite or simlilar software that could create a digital dvd drive.
Third, install the Damon Tool lite
Forth, Use the newly acquired software and use it to open the the game Rewrite disk 1 then 2 (if you haven't extractede the rar file already).
The figure out the rest.

Flixrin13 Mar 2013Reply

Sorry, I never write in details. It is as Lirg said, you need a software called Daemon Tools. Download it somewhere in Google, and after you download it, you will find a lightning icon on the lower right corner of you task bar. Left click on that, and left click on "device 0". Select the game image file and after you open it, you will find your game 'disk' folder in "My Computer" folder. Right click, select explore and you can start finding the "GameData" folder. The rest is just what I said. You can find NoDVD folder in the game folder, the one you downloaded from this site. The English patch can be found in this site as well.

If you are still lost, read the rest of the comment posted here. Maybe I am bad at explaining.

jtaylor11 Mar 2013Reply

Umm. That explanation is a bit poorly worded. It's hard for me to understand what you're trying to tell me to do.

arsz11 Mar 2013Reply

Wade12 Mar 2013Reply

zedigalis16 May 2013Reply

I'm having the same issue exactly, Japanese locale, win 7 X64, nothing happens when the autorun goes and error if i manually hit setup. Have you found a solution?

josi24 Aug 2013Reply

Running autorun.exe as administrator should help.

tlm1051616 Mar 2013Reply

Does anyone know why I cant reach the moon route? Is that on an expansion or something? Its available on the walkthrough but i cant seem to reach it please help

tlm1051616 Mar 2013Reply

So no one knows? This is really weird...Do I need 100% completion before accessing the route because on forums i see lots of people able to access the moon route or maybe im just incompetent and not looking hard enough? lol

Anyone19 Mar 2013Reply

You need to have completed all the heroine paths.

JustMe17 Mar 2013Reply

i downloaded the English patch and tried to play it with the siglus engine that goes through it but an error appears saying there is an error with the engine so i tried using daemon but there are no files that can be used to mount/ no images that came with the download, any help?

Moobin17 Mar 2013Reply

Best Key game and probably best storyline and storytelling of all visual novels out

Error 150319 Mar 2013Reply

i keep getting error 1503 and i cant understand what it says because it is in japanieze. someone said before ou just need to change o japan local and language but i did that and it did not work

150310 Jun 2013Reply

I am also getting an error. But this time it happens on Harvest Festa! I don't get it, Rewrite worked fine but Harvest Festa doesn't. And I don't understand the problem so I can't really troubleshoot it.

Pseudoasian21 Mar 2013Reply

I can't recommend this game enough. Great All Ages Game. Be warned, you may cry blubbery man-tears on some or most of the routes. Pretty lengthy game, first half of story will take a night and each of the routes will take many hours after that. Totes worth it

Remdur23 Mar 2013Reply

Hey guys
Well, I have a big problem with the game. I have read all the comment but I didn't find the answer. Well, I installed the game, patched the game but, whatever I did, the game doesn't work. Indeed, the SiglusEngine.exe crash after a few seconds of running (when the key logo appaears). But not only the SiglusEngine, Windows seven itself crash ! I tried to replace it with the two others SiglusEngine which are in the Readme but it doesn't work. It allways crash.
Anyone have a solution to solve this problem ?

(Sorry if I did mistakes, I'm french and I'm not a boss in English x) )

altux24 Mar 2013Reply

maybe your computer specs is not too high or try to install the DirectX. . I Think it's too low to meet with the game's system requirements. Try the game on another computer with higher specs

Nuggets24 Mar 2013Reply

just finished the game...

terra was pretty disappointing in that it had a very weak resolution...

Moon was best imo; then Lucia route; Chihaya/Kotori route; Akane route; Shizuru route. Shizuru route was so bad...

Nuggets25 Mar 2013Reply

I.NEED.REWRITE HARVEST FESTA. NOOOOOOWW!!!

Random Guy26 Mar 2013Reply

Does anyone know if it's possible to achieve 'Completes' in all mappie segments? My pseudo ocd'nes

Koko07 May 2013Reply

I've completed all the Mappie segments :v
Just move your mouse like there's no tomorrow until you find a hidden circle :v
Some hidden circles require a requisite such as completing Terra

Is there an easier way to download stuff this big than purchasing premium? Getting money out there isn't easy, nor do I like throwing it at download sites.

How to uninstall this game?

handsome18 Apr 2013Reply

Zaverok28 Apr 2013Reply

Rewrite works, except at the end of Kotori's route, it seems like you get a video at the gallery, but whenever I click on it, it doesn't play, it just goes back to the gallery menu

anon54329 Apr 2013Reply

I can't see the openings or any videos that pop up in the gallery, does anyone know how to fix it?

Saber19808 May 2013Reply

Download and install CCCP codecs.When you finish,go to the folder named mov where you installed the game and change the op extensions to mpg, that way you can view the op and ending of the game in the gallery.

hana27 May 2013Reply

Thanks guys!
Happy to be playing this game!

dreamatize02 Jun 2013Reply

Hmm, for the English patch is a single, non-related file right? I Mean, even though i downloaded the VN file a loooong time ago, I can still apply the English patch to that one right? or I have to download again using the link above?

NatsuGallatin03 Jun 2013Reply

Hi guys, first of all, thanks for taking the tiem 2 translate this, is a great work :) but after completing chihaya shizuru and kotori´s route, now that I´m playing lucia route this error have started 2 appear in her route (when she and kotarou go again to the cafe where she eated the biggest parfait) and i can´t get over there... does anybody know how 2 solve this problem?

teary03 Jun 2013Reply

can anyone provide me with a complete save file that at least finished the 5 routes? i don't want to wait to finish all 5 to play the moon and terra route, though i'll try to play the best route first like lucia and akane.

MadNInja03 Jul 2013Reply

I recommend doing all 5 regardless. Moon makes more sense that way and Terra is really an extention of Moon but you'll understand much more if you do all of the routes.

Akimi05 Jun 2013Reply
