Run the game as an admin and it should work

Well, ...how should I say this? Perhaps I shouldn't update the VNDB entry when it was released so that VNTS person from 4chan didn't caught it and then inevitably spread the news that caught up one of Nekonyan's staff attention considering Sakuramoyu is from their FAVORITE company (Sorry for the intentional pun). That aside, I understand very much that this is neccesary evil seeing that they'll face huge risk if a fan released the patch of the VN from their partner companies, especially if the company caught the wind of it. Personally speaking though, I didn't exactly like on how it's going after all even if I understand the situation. in the end, sorry for the rambling and what was done is already done. So, let's just move on from this complex matter. PS - Forgot to say congratulation for the common route patch release, and good luck on whatever you'll do next.

Most likely they'll have to finish the Iroseka trilogy first, then maybe Sakura Moyu after

Alright this will be a long one, but please bear with me. Some of you might have seen this coming (some might have not) but I cannot continue translating this anymore due to a request from NekoNyan. Please do not hate anyone for this. This is mostly an oversight from me. ...Let's talk about a story. This was about... over a year ago. I had a conversation with my friend that went something like this: "Hey this game is great you should play it" "Okay but my Japanese is bad" "That's fine just take your time" "I'll play on the weekend" On the weekend: "Weekly reminder for you to play Sakura Moyu" "Okay" *disappears* The next weekend: "Weekly reminder" "Okay" *disappears* ...And that went on for about a year. Yes, a year. I think it was even more. At one point, I think I lost it and said: "You know what, if you can teach me how to edit the game files then I'll translate it for you" "lmao ok" And then we spent the next few nights looking up for tools to decompile the game files and edit them. Few months pass, I get some more people to play my initial patches, I go around editing it over and... I reach here. Do I have any regrets? Nope. None at all. I have probably spent a few hundred hours on this. After getting the initial know-how I mostly worked on it alone, that included figuring out how the script works, breaking it a couple of times and falling into despair (after which I made sure to create backups like everyday), figuring out how some of the formatting worked by looking at other games made in FVP, photoshopping the images, dealing with errors in the existing translation tools due to them using outdated libraries, practically having to learn English in Japanese, and making sure I didn't miss any references (mostly a few songs, although it's about impossible to tell in the translations). But that's okay, as long as more people get to know about this game, that is more than enough for me. At the very least, I got some of my friends hooked to the game. As for what I want to do next, I don't know. It likely won't be a translation project. Maybe I'll learn to draw and make a game of my own, or maybe just focus on my studies. Some people have asked me to translate other games instead. I can understand your feelings but I honestly cannot get myself to translate anything else when this game sits untranslated. The only other game in my mind was Sakura no Uta, but it seems that someone else has already started translating that, and I'd say that's a good thing in its own. With that, I only hope the best for the future of this game with whoever takes it into their hands.

Tysm! Worked like a charm
