For those of you having trouble with the type-moon exe file, .lzh is a popular Japanese archive type, you can open it with winrar and it should give you a fixed tm.exe (tm.exe is the file with the copy protection in).

For those of you who don't know Japanese but would still like to play the game, there is now a solution for you! A program called Anime Games Text Hooker is able (with a bit of configuration) to hook in to Fate/Stay Night and place the text on the clipboard as you play the game, from where it can be automatically translated using translation software such as ATLAS (or alternatively you can paste it into Google Translate, Babelfish or Excite.co.jp).

Instructions for getting it to run with AGTH:

If your system is set to English locale, you will need to install AppLocale (AGTH makes use of AppLocale libraries for locale adjustment) and then use the following shortcut:

Code:

agth.exe /C /L /M /V /HWB8:4#1 "C:\Games\Fate\Fate.exe"

For systems with Japanese locale, AppLocale is not needed and you should also remove the /L switch:

Code:

agth.exe /C /M /V /HWB8:4#1 "C:\Games\Fate\Fate.exe"

Then, when you load your save game or start a new game, wait until the game produces some text, then select GetGlyphOutlineW from the AGTH dropdown box, press Scroll Lock, then click the Fate window to get some more text, and some UserHookW threads will appear in the AGTH dropdown (on my version they start with 0x0052715D). The purpose of pressing Scroll Lock is to indicate to AGTH which thread needs to be hooked.

You also need to turn the text speed in Fate options up to maximum, so as to avoid random line breaks. When the font size changes (for example, when someone is shouting or whispering) you will need to change thread in AGTH - the number following the thread address is related to the font size (so on my version for example, ordinary text tends to be on 0x0052715D:00000017 and shouted text is on 0x0052715D:00000022 - though there are several different font sizes used throughout the game so try other settings if you can't locate the text you're seeing). After changing thread you will probably need to copy the current sentence out of the AGTH window as it doesn't automatically get put on the clipboard, but once you start clicking through in the game again it will resume doing it automatically.

In addition, when you reach the end of a scenario and you click to proceed, your computer may lock up if you do it while still using AGTH. The solution to this is to close AGTH before clicking on the "FIN" screen at the end of the scenario.
