Folks with Arrow Key problems:
- Run game
- Disconnect all USB Devices (save mouse and keyboard)
- Reconnect each device one by one while the game is running to determine what is the cause of the problem.
OR
- Disable Bluetooth or disconnect whatever device manages Bluetooth.
Had this problem on 2 Win 7 machines. Popping out my Bluetooth adapter solved it for my desktop and disabling Bluetooth for my netbook. Game works fine for both now. I've read some people need to disable their wifi devices if bluetooth is integrated.

Hey, anybody with the directional sticking problem should try this out.
I was doing everything to fix this, unplugging USBs and whatnot, stuff that I'd seen in the archive.

I have a rather peculiar problem. The game runs fine and starts without problems, although I initially had to use the full screen fix to get it running. So, at first everything works normally, no issues with controls, graphics or sounds. However, after playing for a while, the picture will disappear. The game won't crash or anything, in fact, it will keep running like nothing had happened, made apparent my the sounds still continuing like normal. There's just no picture and I've found no way to restore it.
There seems to be no pattern in how this works. It doesn't occur upon certain events or after playing for a certain amount of time, it just randomly occurs. I'm kind of at a loss here, and really, with no error message or anything, I doubt there's a fix. I'll post it this anyway though, because I really want to play the game properly.
Other tips are also welcome. Like, is there some way of integrating some sort of "Save State" function to the game, giving me a save feature mid-dream as well. That way I could just restart and continue np. This doesn't really bother me apart from lost progress.

Sorry for the typo.
Also, I forgot to ask, were you using applocale or did you set your locale to japanese?
Because normally applocale works for rendering CJK characters in their native encoding, but sometimes (when filenames are in japanese) it also helps for parsing the names correctly.

"This is a common problem in RPG Maker games, from 2000 to VX. The reason as to why this happens is still a mystery, but you could try one or all of the following:
Try using the arrow keys on the numpad. These can usually regain control of the character.
Reboot your computer.
Turn your computer off for some minutes. Let it cool down, take a breath.
Stay away from RPG Maker games for a while, even after rebooting.
Reinstall RPG Maker (if you're using it).
Reinstall the RPG Maker RTP of the game you're trying to play.
Try run the game with your computer in save mode (click run, write administrative tool, click on system configuration, boot, boot options, save boot, and click on active directory repair, reboot your computer). If the problem continue, try to disconnect your computer to internet or try with boot minimal option. Nota: to restore your computer to normal boot, repeat the steps and unmark safe boot.
Unplug peripherals such as webcams and joysticks.
Again, if those don't work, running to the hills sound like a good idea."

No.4885
>>4883Oh yeah, for some reason YN won't work when your locale has been changed to japanese because a serie of filenames is somehow missing.
It seems to happen to the japanese version, AND if you downloaded the english version and you executed the installer with english locale, then you attempt to use it with the japanese locale.
If you aren't planning on changing your system locale back to english, I suggest deleting that copy (except the save files), download the english version again and install it in japanese.
That worked for me.
I currently don't know what happens with the japanese version. It is really illogical that you can't play it with your system set to japanese.
No.4886
>>4885It's probably because there is a different run time package for the english than the japanese.
No.4887
>>4886That could be, though I'm not so sure. Mostly, the missing files where "system files", and I don't think kiki was using any default, but it's a possibility.
I had guessed that the problem was the mojibake filenames and japanese filenames, but this one seems to be the case here.
I should try downloading the JRTP and seeing if it works with the vector mirror.

What I did in order to solve it was to replace the RPG_RT.exe file into the game's folder with another RPG_RT.exe file from a RPG Maker 2000 game (in japanese, it may be from a yume nikki fan game); after that, install the RPG Maker 2000 RTP (the japanese one) and you're good to go.
I'm not sure why, but it seems that some people have problems with the RPG Maker 2003 RPG_RT.exe showing mojibake and others don't, maybe is because of OS, I'm not sure.

I’ve digged into the link posted in the thread below about easyRPG working through HTML5, and I’ve found that easyrpg may be easier to use than original RPG_RT binary.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t find neither easyrpg itself, not liblcf required to build it in gentoo, so I thought maybe if there are users of Arch or other people in which distro those packages are present, you could try and run Yume Nikki with easyrpg, it should see the fonts installed from the runtime (also which runtime does YN-0.10 from the frame to the left require? 2000 or 2003?)
How to for those who’s interested here:
https://easy-rpg.org/wiki/userIf this would really work I may consider to spend some time on gentoo forums to make somebody help me with making ebuilds for those packages.
No.5013
>>5012>>4387>>1604Suffering gentoo user, thank you for posting about the EasyRPG project, it looks interesting; and you were right, it may be used to play the game too!
- Download the EasyRPG from
https://easy-rpg.org/editor-downloads.html/ (I downloaded the EasyRPG Editor-Qt continuous builds, Windows 32 bit).
- Unzip it and execute EasyRPG-Editor.exe.
- Create a new project in some folder, go to that folder and find the Player.exe file, copy and paste it in the Yume Nikki's folder with the RPG_RT.exe.
- Execute the Player.exe and you're done!
It's great! But I assume you still need the 2003 japanese RTP thought.
Suffering gentoo user, when trying to run the japanese game found in vector (redirected from kikiyamaHP, known to be Kikiyama's website), a pop up that tells something about 2003 RTP appears, I assume that version is the one the game requires (the japanese version, when installing the english one the pop up still appears).
Some notes:
- You may also get the Player.exe file from the EasyRPG's templates folder without creating a new project.
- I couldn't find/generate a Player.exe with the EasyRPG Editor-GTK continuous builds (use the Qt one).
- You can skip the process of telling where your RTP is when EasyRPG ask you.
- EasyRPG may crash after generating a new project, but the Player.exe will still appear in the folder.
No.5014
>>5012Maybe to make a build for linux to play the japanese Yume Nikki may be somewhat an overkill, you may get the Player.exe file from the EasyRPG's templates folder without creating a new project or running it (in the EasyRPG Editor-Qt continuous builds, windows version).
The Player.exe may run using wine, although I'm not sure.
No.5020
>>5009>>5013I'm terribly sorry, the solutions that I provided indeed seemed to have solved the mojibake. I was so excited about it when I saw it in the main menu, that I didn't tried to actually play the game.
When changing the RPG_RT.exe to the 2000 version one, I was unable to move when the game started.
While using the EasyRPG's Player.exe I was able to play normally (without mojibake)until I tried to sleep, then the game froze.
I have read in the EasyRPG forum about people being able to play it with the EasyRPG Player (with some minor issues). Maybe I messed up in some way.
If I find a good solution, I'll probably come back to post about it.

Having played Yume Nikki some 2-3 years ago, I distinctly remember that Madotsuki will say her "dame muri" if she tries to open the door in her room while awake. But now, some generic SFX is played instead.

>>5020>>5009>>5344>>4387I solved this mojibake shit, at least for yume nikki. I'm on Windows 7 64-bit.
No, it doesn't involve third-party programs or 2000rtp. I don't think 2000rtp games require this bullshit process, because I got yume 2kki working before, didn't actually play it though. Still, I've seen pictures of fucked up yume 2kki, so this fix might still apply.
Don't use the link from Madotsuki's Closet, shit is missing RPG_RT.exe for some goddamn reason.
Okay, so starting from the beginning.
Preliminary: set your system locale to Japanese. I also installed the Japanese language pack, I don't think you need to though. You can do it anyways.
1. Get applocale. The right hand context menu version won't work sometimes because you can't run it in administrator (at least for me), but it's convenient when it does.
2. Run every fucking thing through app locale. Extracting shit (USE 7-ZIP), running 2003rtp, installing 2003rtp…everything should show up with no garbled filenames in your Windows explorer. If it doesn't open for some reason, go to the applocale.exe (should be in windows/apppatch) and right click -> run administrator, then try to run the application through applocale.
3. If you're able to get to the point where you can open the game using applocale (if ゲームスタート.exe doesn't work, use RPG_RT.exe in the ゆめにっき folder), this is where your despair begins. (pretty much everybody can get to this point just using online resources).
4. DON'T WORRY. Go to Control Panel>Region and Language>Formats and change your Format to "Japanese (Japan)".
5. Open the game. It should work.
The amount of people/weebs actually trying to play the game in Japanese is probably really small. But this fucking works. At least for now.
Image attached proves.

I changed the following in Windows 10:
Settings > Time & Language > Region & Language > Add a Language (Japanese) > Download Language Pack
I thought I did this before but when I went back to check it, it prompted me to do it again. So I guess I did it through Control Panel later. It originally corrected some English fonts in-game and just added the language without installing the full Language Pack.
Control Panel > Clock, Language, and Region >Change date, time, or number formats > Administrative > Change system locale… to Japanese
This changed the Japanese file/folder/app names to be correct.
Control Panel > Clock, Language, and Region >Add a Language > Japanese > Installed Japanese Language Pack
This had no effect.
Installed 2003RTP
This had no effect.
In between tries I did the following:
-Reinstalled Yume Nikki (The last time with all changes made nuking the folder beforehand)
-Rebooted
I actually noticed some of the sound files weren't being copied over after making all these changes so I decided to pull the files over from OS X and disable the Japanese localization. Still no luck.
Incidentally, wine runs this game pretty well.
No.5562
>>5558>>1635Figured it out.
If you replace all the MP3 files in that folder with these:
https://0x0.st/N-K.zipIt magically works! Basically I generated them with the following command with ffmpeg on OS X:
for i in $(ls | grep mp3); do ffmpeg -i $i -acodec pcm_s16le $(echo $i | sed 's/mp3/wav/'); done
Also, I'd like to add that I'm using Windows 10 N, not Windows 10, so I don't have WMP installed. I don't know if that *matters*, but it might install mp3 codecs I was thinking.
If you are on Windows 10 N, I recommend doing that and this:
Settings > Time & Language > Region & Language > Add a Language (Japanese) > Download Language Pack
I would also love to know if Windows 10 has the same problem, given that it has some extra stuff thrown in.

Game launches, but immediately crashes because of this error:
"ファイル マイシステムa は開けません"
I'm running the Japanese game through WINE. I've installed the Japanese 2003 RTP, and used this program called "convmv" to change all of the filenames from shift_jis to UTF8 to eliminate mojibake. I'm scared that this might've broken it, since the game can probably only deal with SJIS paths, but I'm still posting about it here in the hopes that it's not the case (changing my operating system's character encoding scheme would be pretty inconvenient, after all). The reason is, even when I go through the files, I can't find any called "マイシステムa.xyz". There's "system/マツプベテムa.xyz", but as you should be able to judge, it's totally different. Is there something more to this, or am I just going to have to put up with the mojibake? Are there any weird hacks I can do on the executable file to deal with utf-8 filenames, if that's the case?
>>8405If you have an actual graphics driver and not something Intel put out, xrandr should have an option to set the "Scaling" property to "center", I think. This probably should apply to games run through WINE.

Not sure if this is the right thread to ask about this because it's not technically a problem I'm having but I'll ask anyway since it's been bugging me for a while. On my first play session the toriningens wouldn't teleport me away. I actually just thought they were friendly. I started in the forest world and went to face carpet plaza, and that toriningen would just walk up to me and follow me but not teleport me. The same thing happened with toriningens in hell if I remember correctly. Like I said at the time I just thought they were friendly, and was very surprised to find out they're supposed to teleport you away.
So my question is just if this is a known glitch, some intended mechanic I don't understand or an unknown glitch that I found

>>8939Must be a glitch brought about by runtime updates. Try an older version of RPGmaker if you can.
There ARE friendly torniningen that will just roam around, but any with crazy eyes should always send you to purgatory

>>8940Well it's something I've never been able to replicate. It's only happened the first time I ever played Yume Nikki. I was just wondering if anyone knew more about it. I kind of wish they were just friendly though, I had a lot of fun exploring from forest world to hell to wilderness to barracks settlement to FC world to Shield-Folk world and all the way back to nexus on my first play session. It absolutely blew my mind how many areas I got to explore only to loop all the way back to where I started. It would have sucked if my progress there was blocked by the toriningens and I had to go get the traffic light or whatever first.

I know the steam version translates things unnecessarily but I was comparing folders and the 2007 Classic v0.10 is different to the portable version which I first thought was just the extracted game from the exe. I also noticed that some animations are quicker in one or the other. Which is recommended?

>>9724Try downloading and activating both the english and japanese rtp, and make sure you run the game in japanese locale. you can run the game in japanese locale by using something like locale emulator or changing your system to japanese locale. Here is where you can download the japanese locale.
