Trouble Q&A |
●If game won't load
・If the message Could not
create 3D device is displayed upon loading the software
It is probable that the PC spec of the user
is too low for this product.
Even if the user's PC spec is above the minimum for this game,
depending on their graphics card or drivers,
incompatibility issues may arise which prevent the game from
loading.
Please find out the details for your graphics card by going to
Control Panel and choosing Graphics
or right clicking Desktop and choosing Properties, then choosing
Advanced
from the Settings tab to display your graphics card's property
dialog.
Open the Troubleshooting Tab and take off the Accelerator option,
then attempt to load the game again.
・If the message Could not
find necessary DLL file XX displays.
It is probably that necessary files such as
D3D8.DLL were not found on your computer.
Please confirm that DirectX 8.1 or above is installed on your
computer.
In order to run this application
the Direct X Runtime is necessary.
Please visit the Microsoft Download Center at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/search.aspx?displaylang=ja&categoryid=2
and download the necessary files, then install them on your
computer.
However, the installation of Direct X can cause other programs to
stop working, although this only ever rarely happens with
programs.
After installing the latest Direct X, it is not possible to
downgrade to earlier versions.
When installing, please pay full attention to this fact.
●FPS Limit
When running the game in full screen, the
speed of its progression will depend on the screen's refresh
rate.
When running the game in window mode, this limit on FPS does not
occur.
●Movements are choppy
This product requires hardware which can
handle a high drawing rate.
When using a PC which has weak 3D processing power, the game will
operate with a lower drawing rate.
This drawing rate is expressed as the value denoted as FPS __ in
the upper left of the screen.
If the FPS drops, the movements of the characters will become
choppy, and the responsiveness of the controls will also drop.
During a sex scene, it is possible to speed up the frame rate by
turning off mosaic processing.
Changing the display method will also sometimes speed up the
frame rate.
→Set Contour Processing to OFF
→Set Color Display to NORMAL
Contour Processing and Toon Processing can result in a heavier
load on the cup during game play.
When smooth movements are required, remember to check that these
options are turned off.
●The game suddenly
freezes
When using this game simultaneously with
other applications, or switching windows in use,
not enough memory may be available for the game, which may cause
irregular effects on the game play.
If this happens, please terminate the application and restart
Windows before trying the application again.
If the same problem persists after many tries, we the circle
would appreciate if you contacted us.
When contacting us please remember to note the in-game
circumstances and your PC's circumstances at the time the anomaly
occurred in as much detail as possible, in order for us to help
you to solve the problem.
●Mosaic Processing
Mosaic processing may not operate normally
depending on the PC environment of the user.
If mosaic processing acts irregularly it will automatically
switch to Virtual Processing as a substitute.
●Full Screen Mode/
Window Mode setting
This product is designed to be played in
full screen mode.
As full screen mode may not work with all types of hardware,
the game is set to run in window mode by default in the initial
program settings.
When the game does not operate sufficiently in window mode,
please play it in full screen mode.
Full screen/ window mode can be selected when the software loads.
When this setting is changed in the options menu, it will come
into effect the next time that the program is loaded.
These settings are saved in the ap.ini file of the data folder.
The full screen/ window mode setting can be changed by editing
the p_st_win entry.
When full screen/ window mode changing causes the game to no
longer load,
please load the game after directly editing the ap.ini file.
Setting Example
・Window Mode
p_st_win=1
・Full Screen Mode
p_st_win=0
