v1.0 Bug/Misspelling/Grammar Mistake Report Thread

[RyusukeKusanagi]

After patching, trying to run the program yielded the following. (NB: The errors show up individually, first with the "Cannot open font24", then "font12", then "grp, bitmap", then "bitmap", then finally the windows error message. Images are thumbnailed; click for larger versions.)

I'm basically having this problem right here, except I fixed the Font problem (Somehow. ;D). But anyways, I still don't get the bitmap part. It basically just has Japanese characters that I don't understand, and says "[grp, bitmap.tga]" and "[bitmap.tga]" and the window crashes. It's preventing the game from coming up at all, obviosly, and I really really want to play this. If anyone can help me out specifically or just point me in a direction I'll try my best to comprehend and try and get this working for myself, and hopefully my problem and the solution helps others too. Thanks in advance.

Verify that the file grp.pak is in your Tears to Tiara directory. If it's not, reinstall Tears to Tiara and then reapply the patch.

Having some kind of weird bug when Arawn and co return to Erin Island and I move to the Vasititas map. I get some HDD error or some sort. Can't decipher it. Attaching the screenshots below.

Using Vista SP1 x86, Intel E4500, ATI HD3870 and 4GB of RAM. First time encountering an error while playing the game too.

EDIT: Fixed. Turns out to be a corrupted install. Reinstalled the game and it works fine now. Thanks for your time, cheese and Phlebas!

Guess I can't do much about that... grp.pak isn't anywhere. And ya'll probably know what I've done. =(

Hey. After the release, I'd sort of put this on back burner, but I finally made my way through the main game, and here's a collection of all the things I found that didn't get corrected, seemed odd or wrong, and some ideas on what to do with them. Not all suggestions are guaranteed to be useful.

Scene #: 0610
Line: Ogam-"The sky fell. Just as in the words of your frivolous oaths."
Problem: oaths? Arthur has been talking about fairy tales, and Ogam goes on to continue to talk of "fairy tales", and not of oaths
Edit by Cheese: Resolved - He's referring to the way one of Arthur once said "Until the heavens fall to the Earth, I will fulfill my oaths."

Line: Ogam-"The second moon sparking in the sky, the 'Daytime Moon', suddenly fell to the earth."
Problem: typo. Also comma
Suggest: "The second moon_, sparkling_ in the sky,"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Line: Ogam-"The seawater flowed into the giant hole bore into the earth,"
Problem: tense
Suggest: "the giant hole _bored_ into the earth"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene #: 0607
Line: Aide-"For that reason, you had the troops dig a hole, and inspected it yourself, didn't you?
Why are you suspending us?"
Problem: it was the plan that was suspended. Suspending people sounds like high school delinquents...
Suggest: "Why are you suspending _this_?"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene #: 0620
Line: Taliesin-"Very well. I'll make you regret saying that in hell."
Problem: awkward, it reads like Arthur made the statement in hell, not that that'll be where he'll regret it.
Suggest: "You'll regret saying that once I've sent you to hell." or something similar.
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Taliesin: Spoony Bard!? Oh, this is too rich... I salute you! What was it in Japanese? When it came up in dialogue it sounded like heboshijin but I may have misheard it, as I couldn't find it in a WWWJDIC under that term.
Edit by Cheese: Resolved - It's ヘボ詩人(hebo shijin). Literally 'lousy poet'.

Scene #: 2012
Line: Arawn-"It's been a while...... Why have you kept coming here lately?"
Problem: doesn't make sense, if it's been awhile, why would he ask why she's been coming lately... He's clearly not asking the opposite, as that doesn't make sense with the rest of the context (as her reply explains why she _does_ come). Maybe
Suggest: "Why do you continue to come here?"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved - You're right, it was supposed to be 'why HAVEN'T you been coming lately'

Scene #: 2003
Line: With another two people joining, the tea party became more large-scale than we'd planned.
Problem: The beginning phrase sounds awkward to me/
Suggest: "With _two more_ people joining" OR "With _yet two more_ people" if the stress on even further addition is important.
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Line: I had hoped to enjoy my herb tea quietly, but it's become the same as a usual mealtime.
Problem: adjective means you should use "herbal". "A usual" sounds odd, not sure why, but you typically hear "the" with usual, e.g. "I take the usual train". I think it's because "usual" implies definiteness, so the indefinite article doesn't really fit? The following seem better to me.
Suggest: "it's become the same as _the_ usual mealtime." OR "it's become the same as a _typical_ mealtime."
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Line: Taliesin-"Hehehe, it's true that [...] Among the elite, it's called 'stable boy's food'. <pagebreak>
Problem: needs closing quote.
Suggest: it's called 'stable boy's food'._"_
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene #: 2613
Line: I covered her mouth, and laid over down on the bed.
Problem: extra word.
Suggest: "and _laid down_ on the bed."
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene #: 0660
Line: Arthur-"I only want you to be happy...... Until now......and from here on......always......"
Problem: odd tensing. "Until now" doesn't fit that well with the present tense, IMO.
Suggest: "_I've_ only _ever wanted_ you to be happy......"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene #: 2711
Line: Epona-"And, I'm one of a kind limited product......"
Problem: missing word, comma.
Suggest: "I'm _a_ one of a kind_,_ limited product......"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: Morgan H
Line: Arawn-"There are your just desserts."
Problem: spelling. "just _deserts_"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: Tournament
Line: Londinium Mayor-"Now, I would like to begin the [...] under direct rule of the Holy Empire.""
Problem: extra closing quote.
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: Llyr with kids
Line: Arawn-"I came because I was told that you called for me."
Llyr-"No......I never asked that......"
Problem: sort of a disconnect. Suggest rephrasing.
Suggest: "I never asked _for you_." or "for that"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Line: I guessed the gist of the situation from Llry's reaction
Problem: typo. "_Llyr's_"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: After Fighting Ogres and Golem in the Londinium arena
Line: Arawn-"Looks like its time. Let's go."
Problem: Wrong it. "Looks like _it's_ time."
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Line: Arawn-"It's seems like his introduction isn't the same length as on the first day......."
Problem: extra word. "It seems like" also I think the number of periods is wrong (not a multiple of three).
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: Blizzard/Song of Creation
Line: Taliesin-"Hehe, have you forgotten? A fallen angel such as you couldn't do it, but I can."
Problem: pronoun. "such as _yourself_"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: 12 Angels abandonment
Line: 12 Angels-"The way Myrddin gave such unnecessary support to those failures...... You saw that fool's fate like this?"
Problem: Pronoun use is weird, what is "this" refering to? The repeating tragedies? I think "that" would be better suited. His fate was in the past as well, and "that" complements better than "this" which feels more present tense to me.
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: Arawn and Pwyll: Friendship
Line: Arawn-"What, we're laughing now? Friends are a tough thing......"
Problem: sounds odd, mostly because friends is plural and thing is singular.
Suggest: "_Being friends is_ a tough thing......"
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Scene: Arawn's death
Line: Pwyll-"I'm not the only who is sad......but I lost myself in grief."
Problem: missing word. "I'm not the only _one_ who is sad."
Edit by Cheese: Resolved

Line: Arawn-"I won't forget the days of fighting shoulder to shoulder with you."
Problem: consistency, when Pwyll described what a friend was I thought it was hyphenated "shoulder-to-shoulder"? Either is fine, but you should pick just one.

Skill Problems:

Dragon Breath: I'm not sure if this is Leafs problem, but the skill doesn't work when clicked.
Laser-Small: The skill description is not translated.
Laser-Big: The skill doesn't work and the description is not translated.
Last Boss Smash: The skill works, but the description is not translated

Dragon Breath: I'm not sure if this is Leafs problem, but the skill doesn't work when clicked.
Laser-Small: The skill description is not translated.
Laser-Big: The skill doesn't work and the description is not translated.
Last Boss Smash: The skill works, but the description is not translated

As you can probably guess those are not usable skills . The names should already give away they belong to enemies.

Yeah, I know, but since Its still a skill and I happen to have them I'd like to see they in English if possible.

[nathler]

The names of the characters are not translated for me an when i move the mouse/point over them i get en error message.
"Text is too long to fit in the box. (This can also happen if you're viewing an Japanese scene in english mode.)"
I'm using Windows XP SP3.
I've tried reinstalling the game a few times but it doesn't help.
This problem is kind of anoying since i can't change or buy the equipment of the characters.
Btw, all the troops that i hire have english names and i dont get the error message when i move the pointer over thier names.

[cheese]

If you are loading a save file from the Japanese version of the game, the names of your characters will be in Japanese. Starting a new game with the English version should fix this problem.
