so its easyer set up on a Vista computer?
If so I get one =D

It's actually MUCH easier on XP
Install East Asian font (If you don't have them already)
Install Japanese IME (set it as default)
a:
Get AppLocale
Run The Update with AppLocale and have fun

b:
Set Unicode program to Japanese

You can install without any of that, but it makes the "Moon Speak" render properly.
All of that is from the Control Panel > Regional Options except applocale which is on the Microsoft site...

What is this Globe Klan and how do I join..are they for newbs? 

Sorry, Greek to me 

My guess is alt+tab means the Vista "page flipper" doohicky? If so it doesn't give me any trouble. Are you in fullscreen mode?

With Vista many actions will cause the game to disappear. Afaik however, this is because Vista changes to admin mode.

If you're trying to use another app, I'd try the Windows icon key and go from there.

I'm not using Vista at all, just XP. Windows Icon key is disabled. :/

Is there no way to Alt-Tab, everytime I do it just ends the program :< I'm trying to Fraps something and follow a Starter tutorial...

Blah I just saw the <HELP> topic.. >_< feel free to delete...

I was hoping it was that, though do you know if this has ever been an ongoing error?
(*Tries to update again...hoping they decided to put the server back online*) In the meantime I hope I can hang out with you guys in the game as I know next to no Japanese..and can only read kana

When I go to upgrade/update the game it tells me something like it can't find /patch/hashlist.dat or something to the efft concerning that file. I read somewhere that it might be due to maintenance but I checked the site and the maint. should be a few hours done by now... :< Any way to fix it?
