A Japanese game is not meant to run on non-Japanese Windows. To get it to work you have to do some tricks: Click here to learn how to install and run the game.

Quick step-by-step guide

Click the third button to install DirectX, click the second button to start the setup

1. Open the archive and extract the Musume3d.iso file to an English named folder, e.g. C:\Downloads\Musume.
2. Mount C:\Downloads\Musume\Musume3d.iso with Daemontools Lite (other mounting software has been known to fail with Japanese games, so please use Daemontools Lite! - it's completely free)
3. DO NOT autorun, but explore the mounted dvd and right-click IHS.exe and select Run with Japanese locale as administrator (you need HF pApploc for the right-click options).
4. Click the third button and run the DirectX setup wizard. This will ensure that you have the right version of DirectX installed.
5. Click the second button to start the setup.
6. Change the default install folder if you prefer, but do not install the game to a path with Unicode characters (only A-Z).
7. Click (N) again a few times and wait while the game is installed.
8. To run the game you need to right-click e.g. C:\REAL\Musume3d\Musume3d.exe and select Run with Japanese locale.
