Do I ask this here or at Nitori's Workshop?... Oh well

[Remilia Scarlet]

I have a question. What do I have to do to fix an error that happens with some Spinoff games? in Touhou puppet dance performance some text is replaced with numbers and codes (Coding I supose), that happens too with Fantasy Maiden Wars Eternal a bit. Could someone help me with that please?

No chance it's from the Japanese text being displayed incorrectly?  Most games probably need to be run in Japanese locale, if it's an English patch I'd need to see the error to say more.

This should also probably go under Derivative Works, so I've moved it there.

Pretty much this. Many fangames can have issues like that if your PC isn't correctly set up to run them. Otherwise, this could be some sort of reading or coding bug (if nothing else works, try reinstalling these games). If you're using an English patch, there might be a problem on your version of either the game or the patch that may be causing a conflict.

To begin with, though, try running these games while your PC is set to a Japanese locale.

A quick Google Search nets you a nifty result off the bat.

What I mean are things like this

Ok, I'll try that

Sorry to revive an old topic, but I'm having the same problem with the same game. Running the game with Japanese locale does nothing but replace some of the incomprehensible symbols with letters, but I still have no numerical values for things like levels, HP, stats, moves left, etc. It looks like this if I run in Japanese locale, without Applocale it's identical to what Remilia Scarlet posted.

happens to me, too. i wish there will be a better patch.

Through EXTENSIVE trial and error I have determined that the problem on my end wasn't anything to do with my computer, the download, or the game itself. AppLocale doesn't work for TPDP, you need to use Locale Emulator. That's it, that was the whole issue.
