    Need help finding Flash game data

    I was able to find the folder by searching for 'dieselmine' on my C: drive. Luckily it was not named with Japanese characters...

    Need help finding Flash game data

    I'm walking through "Kankin Shoujo [Re:Union]", which is a flash game with a single save state. I'd like to manage saves on my own, but I can't find where the data is stored. I could make multiple copies of the game directory, but none of the timestamps have been updated and if the data is...

    Hototogisu Ultra Patriot

    I bought this game when they added a character and chopped the price in half but haven't fired it up yet. Are there any English legends for the options menu, walkthroughs or game instructions anyone can point me to? I did find a Japanese walkthrough I can feed through Google auto-translate...

    Auto Translation Failure?

    I experimented with the game wizard feature of VNR and have gotten it working after a fashion. I might have to pick another thread but I now see how to fix things like this in the future. All is well!

    Auto Translation Failure?

    You guys helped me get a Japanese game running (turns out I had installed SoftDenchi incorrectly), now I have a new problem. I have Visual Novel Reader installed, and I have ITH and TA as a backup (and to read menu entries with Capture2Text). I've run some demos without problems, but the full...

    DMM DRM issues

    Okay! All's well - though I'm not sure what I did differently... - Created a new VM - Added Japanese language pack and Locale Emulator - Installed 7zip - Copied game zip to VM desktop - Ran 7zip in Japanese Locale to unzip to VM desktop - Ran the game in Japanese Locale, got SoftDenchi install...

    DMM DRM issues

    Thank you. I was about to post a minor update: Hmmm... I just noticed that the Windows 7 VM image I downloaded from MicroSoft is 32 bit instead of 64. I'm guessing this is not the problem because Japanese games have been out before 64 bit operating systems but I mention it just in case it...

    Okay. This is the advantage of using a VM. I can clone a fresh one and start from scratch. I'll try unpacking the game and running it without installing SoftDenchi and see if it does anything.

    DMM DRM issues

    Last screenshot. I don't recall which hoops I jumped through to install SoftDenchi. I believe I ran it under Locale Emulator. It performed a standard wizard install and seems to be functional, but perhaps I did something wrong so the game cannot see it and quits immediately?

    DMM DRM issues

    Minor update while I'm here: - The 'munged characters' in text files weren't. I realized I had to run Notepad in Japan Locale to read them properly. - DMM recommends LHAForge as it's unzipping alternative. This seems to generate the same munged file names as Windows built-in zip does. Screen...

    DMM DRM issues

    Nothing pops up. There's no evidence the game executed at all. Perhaps I broke something installing SoftDenchi? I'm running the VM to isolate the effects of running Japanese apps from the rest of the system. I'm experimenting with the proper setup. I can kill and reinstall a VM much easier...

    DMM DRM issues

    I tried my e-mail address and went digging in the help pages when that didn't work. There is an account information screen with a shorter User ID that apparently is used as a substitute for e-mail addresses that are too long to enter into the tool. I'm guessing you can use e-mail address if...

    DMM DRM issues

    Thanks for the tips. Let me give you more info in case it helps: I have set up a Win7 VM on a Win10 machine to run Japanese games. I find that when I use Win7 'Extract All' or .7zip to extract files in the VM that the file names do not come out in proper Japanese characters. I can copy the...
