Additional Comments
Videos give an error message when they come. Delete video.xp3 to bypass. Also, do not close the program normally. You will get a dialogue box. This is because the process is still running. You must kill the app or restart your computer. I have also had several file saving glitches. Try copying the save directory or saving your current progress in two slots. If the game bypasses the menu and you have completed the prologue, load one of your save games. You will be able to access the main menu from there.
I recommend installing ffdshow via winetricks. I believe it allows the sounds to work.
Overall, it works, there just a lot of bugs...
This screenshot gives you an idea of which settings affect
performance the most; From top to bottom, change the options marked in
the screenshot with a * to
/ dibsect
/ no
/ gdi
/ api
The game will give and error and not allow you to continue gameplay when attempting to play videos. A
workaround for this issue is to simply delete the video.xp3 file found in
the working directory.

No menu

Man I finally got it installed and it doesn;t even launch into the menu screen. Just goes straight into the game (new game). Very confusing.

About Starting
by clement on Friday September 17th 2010, 15:04
Im running on a MAC OSX so far the game runs well cept after saving a save data the game keeps poping out a box saying Fate/Stay Night Translated by mirror moon plus some jap words. The only way to start the game again is to quit and reboot wine is there anyway to fix it?
and am i missing out on anything eg, UBW and HF since i cant get to the title screen?
about userconfig
by rodrigo on Sunday November 1st 2009, 1:05
so there's no way to play the videos in the VN? I edited userconfig.exe as was explained on the first comment and removed video.tx from the folder but i would still really want to watch the videos
bug

I may have found a bug with this game. When playing windowed version you can use the keyboard very well, you can open the save menu, load menu and etc. But when you turn to full screen view, for some reason the game doesn't respond to the keyboard in other words you cannot save your progress even after returning to windowed view....
no scripture

I am having a problem running this game because I cannot see any scriptures in it, just a lot of zeors... I am using Mac OsX 10.5.7 and CrossOver 8.0 pro, have installed fonts on the bottle but the problem still persists.

Cannot install from loopback device
by Thomas Yen on Thursday August 6th 2009, 19:28
I tried an unconventional method of installation: mounting an iso image of the game CD using loopback to my cdrom0 folder, and running the installer. (I configured Wine to use my cdrom0 folder as the CD drive.) The installer keeps saying that the CD cannot be detected ("Could not find the Japanese game disc. Please insert the disc and try again.") I tried installing using a virtual drive and the iso images on my Windows box, and it worked fine. Anyone know why it couldn't be installed?
Voices are harsh...
by Karl H. Grube on Tuesday June 30th 2009, 16:37
Anyone know how to fix the harsh voices? I installed everything correctly, and the game runs fine, except that the voices have a very harsh sound to them...especially when the characters say consonant Sss...
