FAQ

Running the game

  • Q1: I keep getting an "(0) Yotogi.Category enum parse error (non-Japanese text)" error when I run the game and I have AppLocale?
A: If you receive an error called "(0) Yotogi.Category enum parse error (non-japanese text)", then that means your computer has not completely changed the system locale to Japanese because AppLocale doesn't support x64/64-bit OS. You must do the following below (choose one method only).
  1. For the x64/64-bit version without setting Windows system locale to Japanese, you can use NTLEA x64 and configure it like here. Next, press the arrow on the bottom right and that makes it so you can right click COM3D2x64.exe to run the game with NTLEA x64.
  2. Setting Windows system locale to Japanese, follow the intructions below (note: This method is recommended because it's simple, doesn't require NTLEA x64 and works fine on Windows 10).
    Control Panel > Region > Administrative Tab > Language for non-Unicode programs choose Japanese(Japan) and restart your computer.
  • Q2: How to fix the translated UI that doesn't display correctly or has incorrect positioning after updating to ver1.09 or higher?
A: You need to update YATranslator Plugin and Translation files because the old plugin version does not support the newer game version.

  2. Also update the following translation strings, texture and asset files from Sybaris2 AIO in COM3D2\Sybaris\Unityinjector\Config
  3. Delete the AtlasSceneTitle.png file in COM3D2\Sybaris\Unityinjector\Config\Assets\resources

  • Q3: I get an error when opening the COM3D2 launcher after updating to ver1.11 or higher and my current CM3D2 version is ver1.58.1, how to fix this problem?
Compatibility Version Error
A: This issue is caused when the CM3D2 launcher doesn't match the current game version. You can fix this by doing the following.
  1. Update CM3D2 to the latest version.
  2. Go to the updater and copy Update.lst then replace the file in the CM3D2 game folder.

A: Older game versions have issues with wine, try updating your game. At the time of writing game version 1.24 is working fine on wine 4.0. Please note that the game takes a very long time to load (multiple minutes).

Gameplay

  • Q1: How do I unlock the CM3D2 personalities in the maid editor?
    A: The main 3 personalities require CM3D2 and updating the game to the latest version in order to transfer the data into COM3D2. You can find more info here.
  1. Finish the tutorial of the three main maids.
  2. After finishing the tutorial and making a new maid, you can now choose the old personalities.
  • Q2: How to transfer a maid from CM3D2 to COM3D2?
    A: After you connect CM3D2 to COM3D2 via the launcher, in CM3D2 you should at least have one save game.
  1. Finish the tutorial of the three main maids.
  2. Go to manage maids, choose transfer maid and load your save. You will see a list of maids that can be transferred to the game, then press OK to transfer the maid to COM3D2.
  • Q3: How do I improve the club grade?
    A: You need to finish the main story first, after that the club grade will be unlocked. The main story is typically driven by either dance/singing stats or cooking stats of your first three maids, in case anyone gets stuck or lost on what to do if they lose it somewhere in the translation, training dance/singing or cooking will eventually unlock the cutscenes. If you do not increase those stats, the story won't progress.
  • Q4: How to unlock the new songs?
    A: Same requirement as unlocking the club grade. You need to finish the main story of the game first before unlocking the new songs.

English version

  • Q1: Can I connect COM3D2 to CM3D2?

It is currently not possible to connect the English version of COM3D2 to the Japanese version of CM3D2. To enjoy the connection between both games, you have to use the Japanese version of COM3D2.
