that's some epic necroage right there
"No such files" means you're missing the following SE files or they have the wrong filename.Can somebody please help me? I actually bought the game, but it crashes everytime during the plant girl fight near the beginning. It happens everytime as soon as she tries to trap me. I have already tried Japanese locale and compatibility mode. I have also checked my anti virus. I'm on Windows 7.
Check your audio/SE folder, I bet you've got all gibberish names in there. You've probably used a Kanji-hating extractor to extract the archive the game was in.
Use a compatible extractor like 7-zip, under Japanese locales, or the unzipper wille choke out Japanese fonts as wrong characters - hence wrong file names... Like what happened to you, I'm 95% sure.
