Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

I've had some luck setting LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucJP, which seems to make wine start off doing the right thing. I still haven't come up with an automated way to get archives to unpack correctly. Maybe installing winrar or win7z inside wine would help...

And where did you get ja_JP.eucJP from?

I find myself manually fixing things by setting WINEDEBUG=+file to find out what file it's trying to open and moving the corresponding file in place. Kinda gross.

Okay this is where I get confused. How do I do this exactly? Do I just type "WINEDEBUG=+file" in the console and hit enter? I tried that and it didn't seem to do anything.

Thanks for the reply, by the way!

I don't know whether the ubuntu folks broke things, but try "dpkg-reconfigure locales" and enabling it. Or editing /etc/locale.gen and uncommenting the line that says "ja_JP.EUC-JP", then running locales-gen as root. And I may have meant "EUC-JP" instead of "eucJP" above.

You're using bash, right? either type "WINEDEBUG=+file wine {program}", or type "export WINEDEBUG=+file" and then use wine as normal.

"sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales" prints this off:

My Etc. directory also does not have a locale.gen file, but it DOES have a locale.alias file. And the console doesn't recognize the locales-gen command.

And I'm not sure what Bash is, but I tried entering "export WINEDEBUG=+file" into the console and it did not appear to do anything. o.0

-edit-
Wow, amazing how much difference one letter can make xD I found a file called locale-gen (ie, no 's'!)in the sbin directory. I managed to run "sudo locale-gen ja_JP.EUC-JP" and it created the EUC locale fine. Still not luck opening Japanese archives without them being butchered, though...

Well, that won't do anything until you run wine. It should make spew out a gazillion lines like

trace:file:ReadFile 0x84 0x137e30 1148 0x32f340 (nil)
trace:file:RtlGetFullPathName_U (L"Z:\\home\\kvier\\FairyFighting\\game.ini" 520 0x32f3c8 0x32f3bc)
trace:file:CreateFileW L"Z:\\home\\kvier\\FairyFighting\\game.ini" GENERIC_READ GENERIC_WRITE FILE_SHARE_READ FILE_SHARE_WRITE FILE_SHARE_DELETE  creation 3 attributes 0x80
trace:file:RtlDosPathNameToNtPathName_U (L"Z:\\home\\kvier\\FairyFighting\\game.ini",0x32f320,(nil),(nil))
trace:file:RtlGetFullPathName_U (L"Z:\\home\\kvier\\FairyFighting\\game.ini" 520 0x32f090 (nil))
trace:file:wine_nt_to_unix_file_name L"\\??\\Z:\\home\\kvier\\FairyFighting\\game.ini" -> "/home/kvier/.wine/dosdevices/z:/home/kvier/FairyFighting/game.ini"

Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

What exactly do you mean by "running" it? When I open a program that uses it? The only programs I have that know of that actually have WINE in the name are "Configure Wine", "Winetricks", and "Uninstall Wine Software". Are you referring to one of those, or a Windows-based .exe program I run using Wine? Because I tried the latter and then opened a console while it was running, and the command still didn't spit anything out.

Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

Uh, gnome... Can you do something like "right click, open terminal here" ? You'll need to start wine from the same terminal you ran the WINEDEBUG line.

Otherwise, open a terminal,
type "cd (place you extracted the archive into)"
then "WINEDEBUG=+file wine (program).exe"

Replace the bits in parentheses with the appropriate things for the program you're trying to run.

Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

Oh, you're referring to Gnome! 12.04 uses Unity instead, so that would probably explain some of the confusion, heh. Sadly, I do not have that option. I may have to try using Gnome instead sometime, from what I've read it's more stable, and now I'm guessing it has more features, too.

Also, as I said, the main problem right now is the extraction process itself. It's butchering the names of files, and anything that isn't in Unicode doesn't run properly.

Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

Ok I´m trying to play Magika Detektive Anette - Kisekae Sleuth RPG -The Secret of the Wolfling

English DL dlsite. com/ecchi-eng/work/=/product_id/RE109831.html
Japanese DL dlsite. com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ109831.htm

When I try to go to the next area I get this crash puu.sh/38UHy/c584c9f828.png
It sais failed to create bitmap

Can anyone plainly explain how I can fix this crash because this really is a great game. It happens in all the downloads I found aswell as in the trial and I have my pc in japanese local and have played many of the same kind. Try the trial and tell me if you get the same error. Maybe pm me a link of a working version.

Had to adjust the links because I need 15 posts for some reason...

Has anyone got a chance to test this yet? It would really help me.

Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

You really should add the information on extraction tools for the games so those new to using the translations do not have to keep asking. Tools like RGSSAD - RGSS2A - RGSS3A Decrypter.exe and how to rename the decrypted file and copy over the translated data over it.

These are in a way technical questions that should also be included in the starter posts. That way it doesn't have to be explained repeatedly just point them to this thread

hi guys im having problems to start the game incubus fantasy
and i get this error message. if someone know how to fix that problem it would be great if u can help me =)


for those who understand no german this message means "RGSS200J.dll was not found"

 

[Obsidious]

Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

I googled the .dll file and what I came up with was an old ULMF thread.
Try downloading the RPG Maker 2000 run time package.

I have encountered errors like this in the past and believe to have installed just about every RPG Maker there is about now.

That's odd... I have rpg maker 2000 on win7 and it works just fine.
However there are English and Japanese versions of the run time packages - if you downloaded the Japanese one you might need Japanese regional settings.
Maybe the problem lies somewhere else though - I have no idea why there would be an error message like that.

You should probably look for an alternative link first. The search function and especially the RPG Maker Thread would help you with that, if you don't find anything via Google.

edit: ok nvm i changed my regional settings to my normal settings and nothing changed with that odd error message. i hope the rpg maker pro's can help me

Re: Frequently Asked Questions and Problems (Tech Questions Go Here!)

This isn't really a tech question but I don't see anywhere else suitable to ask this. What is an effective way to manage your dlsite games? My collection is nearing 100 right now and most of the folders are named something like RJ099683. I don't want to rename cause that's valuable info but it makes it impossible to find the game I want. doublely so because I don't remember based on the name half the time anyway. usually the dlsite pic reminds me. Any suggestions?
