The comments section on the Nintendo Life article are literally a cesspool. I'm glad we got coverage, and I hope that we don't get hit with any takedown notices. Hopefully we can have a finished/polished version of the patch soon so someone can post a pre-patched version of the game on 'that site' before anything bad happens ;D
Well, someones say that all publicity is good and if a takedown happens I'll see how to "leak" the latest version.

Indeed. Its a true cringefest there. I'm really glad to see that this patch is being made. I still wish that the game was released unaltered but patches like these are at least a viable alternative.

Amazing. 10/10. Best comment. :toot:

Some very angry children over there. Almost like some of them have no interest in the game and just like drama.....

Hope this doesn't cause too many issues for the team behind the patch.

Is this the cutscene related to her concert during her first sidestory? If so, the cutscene appeared fine on my end when testing earlier, I'm unsure as to which cutscene this would be otherwise.
Kiria 3rd side quest. Freeze during concert cutscene but able to skip the video. Can provide save file if needed with saves also before Ellie/Eleonora first side quest scene and Ch 3 scene before the boss that are missing subs.

Also, it may have nothing to do with the patch specifically, but during the end of my first class change cutscene, the game froze and had to restart. Worked the second time watching the whole thing again.

Yes, saves would be great for testing.
I've heard the issue with some of the Bloom Palace cutscenes crashing but can't get it to happen in my end at all, have you been updating your files to the most recent patched versions?

Is the Kiria section a CGI cutscene or in-game?

Oh and, thanks for all the help you've given us so far and providing save files, it's muh appreciated.

EDIT:
Didn't see your edit there, so the Bloom Palace crash seems to be a random occurance then?
I'd need to see more samples of this I guess.

Kiria concert cutscene is CGI. And yeah, I only watch the Unity scenes every once in a while but that was the only time it froze for me. I believe I am on the latest patch though

And NP, I'm just glad someone is restoring this game at all, and you guys are doing a great job updating and fixing it at a surprising pace. The changes for the Western version aren't the worst thing in the world but some of them are just so pointless (CH 1 boss CGI and wedding dress). I feel like they could have allocated some of those funds towards subbing in battle dialogue. But who knows, maybe they had to make those changes for a T rating for ESRB.

Save file:

7 - Right before creating the Unity to trigger Ellie side story scenes, tv show scene not subbed
8 - Right outside the exit of boss room, in-game cutscene singing not subbed but non-song portion of the cutscene is
14 - Before Radiant Unity craft to trigger concert cutscene

Thanks, I'll begin my investigations then.
At, it's a Teen in America? It's M here in Australia, meaning 15+, weird.

UPDATE:
Fixed Elle's cutscene already, moving on to the others.

PS: 0.9.2 will be coming out soon.

Also another scene for a Tsubasa side story where she sings Feel for a short while which I assume is probably supposed to be subbed, the save file with the most time (15 or 16 I think) which will require you to run to the TV station Idolasphere and warp/navigate to the end boss room. Or I can provide the save right outside later.

I've performed the radiant unities multiple times now and no crash, will fix the singing now however as well as Tsubasa's, can you tell me what number side story that is and the name of it?

3rd side story: A Wind Colored Tsubasa
Thank you, for future reference, I can locate the effect files easily if I know the number and name.
Same goes for story elements, the chapter it happens in helps immensely.

EDIT:
Going to test a fix for these now, should work.

And they're fixed, uploading new patch soon.

Ok so I dumped my game completely and I am trying to patch it, however the "tms_patcher.exe" keeps saying that the xdelta.exe is not in the xdelta folder when they are both in the same xdelta folder with all of the files. Am I missing something? I downloaded the latest patch from the MEGA link in the Pastebin.

Leave the files in the same place they are in the mega folder.
This means TMS_Patcher should be in the directory abolve xdelta.

How do you open the APAK model files?

It seems that this is how 3D models are stored inside pack_010_character
These are not exactly the model files - they're packages(Atlus Package, used only in this game for now) containing the model bfres and additional files like collision and textures. I made an extractor, maybe I'll upload it later.
