A really (?) unknown problem with Lamento-Beyond the Void

[SillyBlue]

Ok, I searched everywhere for a post with a similar problem to mine, so that I wouldn´t be asking something that is already resolved.

By the way, I have Windows 7 Professional 32 bits. I downloaded the game from here:
http://aarinfantasy.com/forum/f153/t...ml#post4063377
And the LmtDVDVer200 patch was downloaded from here:
http://www.nitroplus.co.jp/support/p...1107282141.php

The thing is that I installed Lamento-Beyond the Void, patched it correctly and everything was working perfectly fine. But everything went wrong when I patched the game to English. I tried to open the game, but it closed just like before being patched with the LmtDVDVer103 and LmtDVDVer200 patches. I thought that after being patched to English, the last patch was erased, so I patched it again. Good, it was working again. I started a new file, and the moment when the song of begginings started to appear on the screen, it said "invalid", and in the next line "invalid" again. I knew that "invalid" wasn´t what the song stated, but I thought: "Hey, maybe the song wasn´t translated with the game". When i reached the part where Konoe starts talking, everything seemed fine because the text was in English! (Yay!) Then I reached the first decision of the game and tried to save before, but when I chose a slot to save, it says "invalid" again. That´s when I noticed that my game must be damaged or something. I checked the tutorials in youtube about the game and checked that everything was the same, but noticed some differences.

Firstly, when I patch the game with the LmtDVDVer200 patch, it creates a cg1.npa archive with 14808 KB. When I checked the tutorials, it wasn´t there.

Secondly, when I cut the Lamento-Beyond the Void.exe (784 KB) from the download files and paste it in the root folder, replacing the Lamento-Beyond the Void.exe (1584 KB), the game doesn´t open, as if it wasn´t patched. What I do, is that I run the LmtDVDVer200 patch again, and it works again.

Thirdly, when I patch the game to english, the Lamento-Beyond the Void.exe archive becomes the 784 KB one, and the game doesn´t open again. So I run the LmtDVDVer200 patch again.

There must be something wrong that I am doing, but for the life of me, I can´t seem to be able to find what that is. Can you please help me? Thank you!

(I tried to be super specific, hope that helps n.nU)

@SillyBlue; you were really specific in your descriptions, which helps a lot!!

Concerning the invalid problem, I think it was stated in one of the txt documents of instructions or somewhere. I actually had a similar problem, and it was fixed by doing a clean install, meaning you un-install the whole game, and re-install it again. The patches are really confusing, and tbh, I don't really know what the difference between them are myself... The one thing that you need to make sure of, is to patch the game before applying the English patch, and the text should show in English, and not as Invalid. Another thing is, you can't re-patch the English patch, or it will show that Invalid problem. Not sure about it, but I think that should solve the remaining problems that comes after that~

Hope this helps~

Thank you! Actually, I did just that and didn't run the LmtDVDVer200 patch and the game worked properly -3-U Guess I was patching the original files too much and it caused the invalid glitch. Thanks for the really quick answer. I'll leave here the link to download the LmtDVDVer200 from the nitroplus webpage for those who really need it nun

Hello kiraraa!

Your English is perfectly fine. ^_^ In fact, it's very good.

As for a full English patch... I don't believe one is finished yet.

We do have a team working on it, which you can read about here in the first post:

They look to be done translating, but now they're adding the script to the game and making sure the game works. This can take a while for quality testing, but it's good to know they're working hard! Go cheer for them! ^_^

There is no complete patch available. They won't be releasing it until they're 100% done.
