Silver Chaos 1

What works

Installation and Running the game.

This japanese game only run in a japanese version of Windows, so to fix this in Wine, you'll need to install the Wineloc loader, otherwise the game will crash just after a couple of clicks. (This also will happen in a real Windows copy that was non-japanese!)

To play, I add a shortcut with the following command:

wineloc -l ja_JP /home/arucard/.wine/drive_c/Programs/VividColor/SilverChaos/MainSystem.exe

And just works!

What does not

Prior to Wine 1.1.5, that fixed a critical bug in quartz.dll that would crash when a character wants to speak something.

Actually, nothing to do!
