I talked about writing an update post the other day, finally got around to do it now.  To tell the truth, ever since I migrated to Windows 7, I have been on a scramble to get all the eroge games I love running; the fact that I have a huge pile of them sitting didn’t help at all!  So on the top of the agenda this month was to tackle some of the games that I absolutely need to finish, such as Madou Souhei Kleinhasa and Fortune Arterial. One of my greatest fear before migrating to Windows 7 64bit edition was compatibility issues with all the legacy eroge games and all the support applications I use to play them.  Luckily there were very few problems so far.  Most the eroge games I want to keep running have been able to run so far; however, there were a few exceptions, most notably the new regional protection scheme being deployed by one of my favorite eroge game companies Triangle, their fierce regional protection scheme have left me in fear for quite some time.

In my last post on this topic, I talked about how I bypassed this regional protection scheme, by using the free Windows XP mode Japanese language edition, however that method is by no means perfect, most notably the color support is only up to 16bit and sound support also left a lot to be desired (a certain Austrian Otaku has pointed me in the right direction, which I will talk about in a little bit).  After more thorough searches, I finally managed to locate a proper regional patch on a Chinese forum that will enable Madou Souhei Kleinhasa to run on a non-native Japanese OS (for whatever reason, it was never leaked back to the English forum such as Hongfire, no idea why it hasn’t happened yet).
