Troubleshooting:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> "There's a missing voice in this scene!"
Check the Known Issues section of this readme.
If it's not in there, report it.
> "Why aren't the voices playing?"
Make sure the FULL voice pack is installed.
Make sure your directory is as follows:
..SteamApps\common\Higurashi When They Cry\HigurashiEp01_Data\StreamingAssets\SE\
- The SE folder should have s01, s19, and s20 folders from the FULL voice pack
..SteamApps\common\Higurashi When They Cry\HigurashiEp01_Data\StreamingAssets\Update
- The Update folder should have script files in it such as onik_000.txt, at least 39 onik files, tips files, and an omake txt file
> "It's still not playing/I'm not getting the afternoon/night backgrounds."
Go to ..common\Higurashi When They Cry\HigurashiEp01_Data\StreamingAssets\CompiledScripts
Make a copy of the Complied Scripts folder.
Delete onik_000.mg -> onik_15_03.mg and onik_op.mg
This will force the game to read the new files.
If this stops the game from working properly, go to
..common\Higurashi When They Cry\HigurashiEp01_Data\
And open output_log.txt ; This will tell you which script txt file has the syntax error.
Known Issues:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Generic:
- Sometimes the lines don't last long enough for a voice file to play fully.
- This is most evident when auto is left on.
- BGM volume mutes BGM and Voices
- Unavoidable, since the voices aren't their own thing
- More than one sound effect cannot be played at the same time.
- Fixable by moving them to a different sound layer.
- Chapter 1:
- Voices not properly aligned during the talk about Keichii's dick scene.
- There are too many voice files for Keichii for this scene, probably the scene is extended in the ps3 version.
- Since I don't know japanese, I can't tell which voices are actually used.
- Tips:
- Missing voices for Keichii's Mom in Tip 20 (At the Seventh Mart)
- Missing voices for lines 1472 to 1524 in Omake_1 (All-cast wrap up scene)
