FAQ

Run with Japanese locale

• Q: What is Esthetic Play?
  A: Estetic Play is an addon to the game that comes with it's own launcher. The gameplay is the same, but the scenes are consensual and not about abuse.

• Q: When I run the setup I get an error with unreadable text preceded by '1155:' (see picture "Run with Japanese locale", on the right). Anyone know how to fix this?
  A: This is a Japanese game and you have to run the setup with Japanese regional settings to install it. Follow the quick step-by-step guide below to install the game.

Running the game

• Q: Game worked, but now it stopped working (crashing)? I didn't make any changes to it.
  A: This is known to happen (rare) and can be caused by other applications running. Try closing any open applications (browser etc.) and try again. If that doesn't help, try restarting Windows and then try running the game again.

Insert disk 2

1. Extract DISK1.mdf, DISK1.mds, DISK2.mdf and DISK2.mds files to an English named folder, e.g. C:\Downloads\RP
2. Mount C:\Downloads\RP\DISK1.mdf 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 Startup.exe and select Run with Japanese locale as administrator (you need HF pApploc or here for the right-click options).
4. Refer to Startup.exe picture on the right: If you can click the second button it means you have to install DirectX 9.0c. Your game will not work if you ignore it!
5. Click the third button from the top (ref. Startup.exe picture) to start the Real Play setup.
6. Click the button with (N) once.
7. IMPORTANT: Change the destination to e.g. C:\illusion\RP. Your game will most likely not work if you forget!! (see picture on the right)
8. Click (N) again a few times and wait while the setup runs.
9. About half way through the setup will request DISK2 (ref. Insert disk 2 picture on the right). Mount DISK2.mdf like above and click OK.
