WinterfuryZX Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) I have the original game on DVD disc, I'm trying to run SETUP.EXE but it simply doesn't do anything, no error messages whatsoever. I switched everything to japanese, locale, date, on text screen etc... Nothing works. Any Idea? Maybe it is not compatible with the latest versions of Win10, I'll try to setup a win7 VM, alredy tried with winXP.

I'm starting to think that there is a very nasty regional protection here. Edited January 23, 2021 by WinterfuryZX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The installer and game will refuse to run if your Windows UI language isn't set to Japanese. You might have some success by using Locale Emulator with "Fake system UI language" turned on.

WinterfuryZX Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 Solved copy-paste from Vndb: Ntleas worked, Locale Emulator did not (tried with all the available options). FYI: You have to start Ntleas as administrator and load "setup.exe" directly from Ntleas GUI, don't try to start it from the windows right-click menu interface, it won't work. (The actual game does work from the right-click menu though.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
