Hi, thank you for this mod! I patched my game and everything seems fine so far. Is there a way to confirm that the mod is installed and working? Currently I havent gotten to any of the romance yet so I am not sure if it is working.
I've found the best way to check is in the friendship levels menu, hearts will appear next to ALL dateable NPCs! (instead of just the opposite gender)
additionally, those 2 second animated cutscenes when you first meet a dateable character will play for ALL the dateable NPCs (i believe normally they won't)
Carefully followed the instructions. Had to disable the checksum for it to patch. Loaded the game. Started a new game, anticipating an enjoyable playthrough that was long overdue. After Volkanon tells you to sleep at your bed during the tutorial, the game crashed. Endured the 8 minutes of introduction 4 times and it crashed without fail here every time. Restored the vanilla exe and it stopped crashing. Back to using my custom bachelor swap mod.
Very unstable mod and atrocious method of patching. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
The checksum must be correct for it to work. It won't otherwise.
On the off chance you have a pirated version of the game, then the checksum won't be the same as a legit copy. Not sure if that's your problem, but thought I'd throw it out there just in case.
I'm not entirely sure what could be the issue then, it worked just fine for me.
Are you trying to patch the Desktop icon for Rune Factory 4 Special, or are you going into the steam files to patch the RF4S.exe? It's the second one that needs to patched.
Yeah, I was able to make it through the tutorial. I had the same problem as you, word for word, but I had... a shadier copy at the time. Now that I have the Steam version it doesn't crash where you are.
I honestly would DM you my working exe but I'm currently on mobile. My PC isn't working right now, I'm really sorry.
Maybe I'm a little too toxic, but this mod to start with I can't patch it because of a UI error saying “XD3_Invalid_Input” even if you uncheck the option to validate the cheksum, it patches it, but it crashes the game every so often and it's impossible to play. Another thing I don't understand, if the patcher needs a file with extension “xdelta” then why you upload a file with extension “vcdiff” renaming the file extensions does not always work and can break the file causing unnecessary errors for people who are not familiar with this. Now for a possibly silly mistake I can not make this mod work.
Would you be willing to share which files you modified? I wanted to make the same mod but for the 3ds version, though I'm not sure if the RF4S files are vastly different. Thank you either way for your work on this.
I'm having an issue where the clothes shop is charging me gold but not giving me my outfits, playing as Lest. When I go to the shop, select to buy the outfit, but the NPC then tells me "You don't have the cash, how unfortunate" It then takes my money without the outfit appearing in my wardrobe.
i made a mistake of not making a back up of the original .exe file. where can i download or get the original one? i tried uninstalling my game and installing it again and i think its still the bi.exe. pls help!
This might seem dumb to ask but is there Vortex compatibility? I can't find the instructions on how to add mods for this game. I also.... can't find out where to add this game. Do I need a special extension to use this? Sorry for bothering you.

Have you tried it through the tutorial via starting a new game?
Only other thing I can do is ask of you is to DM me your successfully patched exe.
