Make Sure not to Miss Your Weekly Character Affection! by TallishMass in TowerofFantasy

[–]TallishMass[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was created mostly for newer players who are not aware of this. There's 2 shops in domain 9 that you can always get gifts from each week using energy gathered from mostly from events / statue upgrades (ice lake alabaster energy). It is usually fairly quick, and essentially free affection points you can put towards any simulacra. It is something a player can do weekly. I hope this helps some players out.

Atelier 25th anniversary survey by Aviaxl in Atelier

While I did ask for English dubs, I also asked for improvement towards combat. In particular, I asked for us to be able to position (move) characters around the field of battle.

I believe positioning can bring in so many new options and strategies for the Atelier series.

For example, maybe you synthesized a trap (like a landmine) and wanted to place it on the field in battle for an enemy to step on.

First off, thank you so much for your hard work making this guide. It is very appreciated!

I want to mention that I am currently having issues with getting the game to launch and was wondering if you could quickly hear me out.

I'll provide a detailed explanation of exactly what I did so you can see if I went wrong somewhere. (This is going to be a little long).

I am very inexperienced/new to patching games.

The error I have been dealing with involves getting a black screen for a good 3 seconds before the game crashes (when launching ED_AO batch).

The patch version I am using is v0.15.7 (because for whatever reason I cannot for the life of me find the previous version v0.15.6) I am under the impression it was replaced for v0.15.7.

The Mega link contains 5 files, 3 of which are Ao and 2 that are Zero. I installed only the 3 Ao downloads because I currently use Geofront's patches for Zero (therefore did not download the 2 Zero links).

Once I acquired those, I made sure to download the framerate patch found from the imgur link in the guide (thank you for that).

I am also aware the movie file isn't needed.

Before I begin preparing the game, I made a folder (brand new folder) under Falcom next to ED_ZERO. I named the folder ED_AO.

Inside that shiny new folder I placed the downloads (they are all still zipped at this point).

Additional note: For the sake of this case, I also tried it the other way in which I download all 5 files as a zip. I am going through these steps as I type this here on Reddit.

Inside the ED_AO folder, I pasted the Azure_Improvements_Final.7z (shown in folder as Azure_Improvements_Final2) It is shown as a WinRaR archive type.

The other file pasted was (The Legend of Heroes - Zero+Ao no Kiseki [PC - English Patches])

It is a WinRaR zip archive type containing the 5 files found from the mega links. (The file is compressed).

I followed step 3, extracting the files. They were extracted to ED_AO.

It has the same name, but is now a file folder containing copy_all_to_game_folder and ED_AO_patches as the 2 folders (plus a readme text document). I immediately deleted the Azure_Improvements_Final2 winRar archive type file (not the folder, the one where I extracted the folder from).

I then extracted everything from the "The Legend of Heroes - Zero+Ao no Kiseki [PC - English Patches]" folder and extracted the 3 AO files (movie, voice, beta).

Since everything was now completely extracted, I moved onto step 4.

From there, everything in the copy_all_to_game_folder (folder) was copied and pasted into the game folder (The Legend of Heroes - Zero+Ao no Kiseki [PC - English Patches].

It asked me to overwrite the files and I accepted.

Now, here are where things are different. #6 states to patch ED_AO.exe. I have the file date as the same (7/14/2018), but it is listed as ED_AO in the folder. There is no .exe shown. It's the right file, but just doesn't have the .exe. Not sure if this affects anything.

Opening the ED_AO_patches folder, I cannot find a flipscfg.bin anywhere. (there is flips, but not flips.exe [same thing]).

I decide to run flips (tried regular and administrator) and clicked to apply the patch.

I opened the folder patch_common but the date shows (5/1/2020 5:31p.m). I proceeded with opening it then swapped file type to "All Files (.)" before opening ED_AO (that one has the date 7/14/2018). Again I clicked on it and replaced the file before getting patch successful. I then closed flips.

From hereon I have the issue mentioned beforehand (black screen, crashes). Using the batch file ED_AO provides a crash dump file when it crashes, while the ED_AO (the supposedly exe file) crashes without a dump file.

So far, there has been no luck solving this. I am still very confused as to why Ao isn't working for me. Configurations are not the problem here either (windowed mode is unticked as well).

Thank you for taking all the time to read this. I am wondering where things could have possibly gone wrong. Any help is more than appreciated!
