Use your preferred virtual disc software to mount DISK1.mdf, do not autorun. RENAME ジンコウガクエン2.mdf to something simple and English like DISK1.mdf.Ġ3.

IF YOU DO, you will have to edit the registry: ĭON'T install the game, mod tools, or patch files to a deep folder structure. If it shows Japanese anywhere, or you know it is of Japanese origin, use Applocale.ĭON'T move the game after installing it.
AA2 MODS TORRENT UPDATE
Run almost everything with Applocale - installer, update files, maker and game executables, translated maker loader, etc. This goes for utilities like Wizzard as well. If for some reason you're on Windows 8/8.1 and applocale doesn't work, then you should try Locale Emulator.ĭON'T install anything to the default Japanese-named folders, edit every install directory to something readable.ĭON'T install to Program Files or other system-default directories, or you may not have write access to save characters and games unless you run as admin.

ONLY USE EITHER APPLOCALE OR JAPANESE SYSTEM LOCALE, NOT BOTH.
