    Grisaia no Kajitsu wont run?

    Did you try disabling UAC (User Account Control)?

    If not, use search (the magnifying glass icon in the charms bar) and type UAC. Click it then change the setting to "Never notify" by dragging down the slider. It fixes compatability with old games and issues with saves for most VNs so it might work for this too. 

    Can I upgrade to Win8 and still play VNs?

    I'm currently using Windows 8 right now to play games and VNs. I can say that all apps that works with 7 runs fine here. The key is to disable the annonying UAC (User Account Control) that shoves alert windows in your face everytime you open up something that requires higher privileges. UAC somewhat breaks apps that doesn't support it like most old games. Compatability mode also helps as I use it to run Battle Realms when my cousins come over =D

     

    But, I recommend NOT upgrading to 8.1 because I had various issues with it even when using compatability mode and UAC turned off. I cannot run Age of Empires 3, Battle Realms, Starcraft and some other old games like in 8. Old games also break DWM(Windows Aero) until I restart the PC.

    Do I still need to do this?

    Hello

    I've been a member for 2 months now but haven't made a proper introduction. So without further adieu, lets start.

    I'm forum, pleased to meet you guys. Initially, I just joined for the sake of communication with Walkure team and I'm currently an editor there btw. I enjoy reading VNs casually when I'm bored or want a change of pace. I also have no particular preference and read anything as long as its interesting.

     

    I dunno what to say anymore so that is all. ^_^

    [Site]Google Chrome Crying MALWARE!

    That sometimes happen when an advert links to a malware or phishing site.

    But seeing fuwanovel is free from ads, I'd say its just a false positive, or possibly your dns might be compromised.

    Local ISPs are often times subjected to attacks with some chance of exploits making through.

     Try to use OpenDNS or GoogleDNS and see if chrome still acts up.

    I had the same problem with some old games crashing in windows 7 before.

     

    It is completely possible as long as you have the right hardware available.

    I recommend at least a 2 core processor with Intel VT-x, or AMD-V extension support,

    at least 4Gigs of ram and 50Gigs of hard disk space

     

    As for the software, VirtualBox is the best free VM that I know.

    If you have the cash, then choose VMWare Workstation (not affordable really).

    I want to rant something, feel free to ignore them if you don't like. (Engrish warning :P )

     

     
    Well, they were successful at killing my career in translation. No one will accept me in their team anymore, and I've been kicked out of 3 translation teams. It really hurts my confidence. When I look back at what I've done in the past 6 months, I remember putting about 4-8 hours a day, almost everyday to translate the VNs and hope that people will enjoy my work. I feel really bad for putting so much time and effort to waste. I'd probably be more successful in translating VNs to my native language since I'm weak in English grammar. But yeah, this isn't goodbye as some of my motto's are "be positive in life", "continue to improve myself" and "never give up". I will return someday.
     
    :P

     

     

    Baka-tsuki is in need of Jap translators. Engrish there is more... unpleasant, but still better than any MTs. Why not give it a try =D I'll be your editor.

    This is a good site to train your Japanese and more importantly English = WINWIN =D

     

     

     

    BUT really I just want to read more LNs

    Game oriented visual novel

    in Recommendations

    Since most of the gameplay oriented VN are mentioned. I'll just add this here:

    • Shikoku no Sharnoth - has a gameplay a bit of like pacman
    • Minna Daisuki Kozukuri Banchou (nukige)- If played the pin minigame in TWEWY in the DS, then this will be very familiar
    • Corpse Party - a horror PSP game, you will need an emulator for this
    • Monmusu Quest - very easy game, but nevertheless very fun with the humor

    But really if you're after gameplay, then it's better for you to find some JRPG games like YS chronicles and the likes.

    Tried playing it under Japanese Locale?

    try using applocale from Microsoft to manually change the game's locale or set it to a system default under the Control Panel.

     

    Setting the system to Japanese locale is proven to cure those crashes and errors for the majority of players.
