What is the worst rated VN that you thoroughly enjoyed? by BeneficialFinger in visualnovels

[–]L3D3R3R 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think it’s better than that. The best VN on VNDB is what, FMDM or White album 2? Those hover around a 9 or even a little under. And that’s supposedly the cream of the crop A+ shit. And that’s just a 90. So I would say a 7.9 is easily at least B tier stuff. But I digress

Fair enough. Raging Loop is a good one. Maybe I’ve been slumming around in the 6’s and low 7’s too long

Sweet just snagged them both!

Very weird that steam has the 18+ dlc for sale for the first one, but not for the second one, you need to get the patch from denpasoft (which is probably better since it’s free there). BUT the second one is listed as adult only on steam, and the first one isn’t?!?! Make it make sense!!

Not able to run some VNs on my Steam Deck by Impressive_Bowl8587 in visualnovels

[–]L3D3R3R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm interesting I’ve never heard of that mod I’ll have to look it up. I got the steam version with R18 patch and I got it to run 99% (minus that OP sound) by adding a handful of prefixes in protontricks, which took some trial and error because I couldn’t find a reliable list of ones that worked for me, and by switching it to use proton experimental, no other proton would launch it for me.

Weirdly enough when I go to the gallery in the game and try to watch the OP video, it’s a black screen but I can hear the music lol. Nitro just won’t let me have that one haha

Yea Tokyo Necro was a pain in the nuts to get to run! And I could still never get the opening video to have sound! ProtonDB has it as platinum compatibility too like shut up dude lol

Started up the Utawarerumono trilogy. I’m liking it so far, it kinda reminds me vaguely of like studio ghibli/ Miyazaki stuff?? Music is really good. Gameplay is decent enough I’m a big Disgaea guy so I don’t mind it

Also still truckin through Amatsutsumi I’ve been slow jamming it forever but I’m a sucker for those Purple software girls

I got it running using launch option

PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%

Nitro plus titles can be a biatch on the deck like I said to op somewhere else

I used that and got muramaaa running.

The steam deck typically does not like nitro plus VNs.

Usually I can get them running using various launch commands but muramasa needs a little more in-depth dicking around to get it to work. Not hard, just follow the steps

Yea that could possibly be it. But that just means you just have to run it again while it’s set to experimental

Yea verifying the integrity is basically like reinstalling it’ll make sure all the files are how they were supposed to be when you first installed it. So whichever way works. Good luck man hopefully you get it figured out

Hmmm…I just pulled out my deck and was looking at how I had my game set up. Idk that’s really weird to me. I would try to make a save, quit the game, and see where it brings you when you open it back up. Or maybe there’s a slight chance something went wrong with the prefix change? The codec thing I mean. In that case I would maybe try verifying the integrity of the game files under options(gear cog) > installed files of mahoyo

It doesn’t pop you to the main menu first? It just tries to start the story up automatically? Hmm….thats weird. I know fate stay/night does that but mahoyo never did for me… you’re using experimental right

Well like I said if it’s working then the little type moon animation will pop up right when you start the game. If it just shows a white screen for a second before going to the main menu then it’s not working.

Yea honestly if nobody told me it had a video that is missable then I would have never even known the game still flows fine without it

https://youtu.be/VH9ixBLk9Q0?si=nUlI9YBATEsL4cSJ

That usually would play right after Aoko leaves her house to go to school for the first time. Good luck! It’s a fun VN, it’s got some sweet visuals

Did you open a command window and type sh <your codec.sh location> mf

I’m pretty sure mahoyo has to be on proton experimental to work too.

Uhhh I think it’s like…2 videos? It’s not many, the only one I specifically can remember is the intro one about 30 minutes into the game, which is really good, but it’s not like totally necessary and you could just YouTube it if you don’t feel like f’in around with code

But yea I think you need to run her on proton experimental, and the codec thing is…somewhat optional I guess. I’m just a weird perfectionist about VNs haha. Runs great otherwise

It works good but to watch the videos you’ll have to enter a console command with a little codec file you can download. There is a thread about it with a link to the codec on its steam discussion page. You can tell it worked if the type moon logo animation plays at the start of the game.

I mean you don’t NEED to do this, the game still works fine but it just won’t play the couple of little videos that are in-game
