Broken Russian Symbols

[shupkat]

Hello, I'm trying to run a tsukihime visual novel on archlinux using your aur package, but I get broken characters, I tried putting --enc:sjis, but it just changes the look of the characters and it's still broken. This is an unofficial translation, but it works when running with wine. I can provide examples of game files, but I have to find out which ones you need to identify the problem and whether I can post them here without violating the rules of github

no --enc:sjis

with --enc:sjis

Sorry for the late reply, it seems that the script is using utf-8 encoding. The onscripter didn't support this encoding currently. You can change the encoding from utf-8 to either sjis or gbk (both of these encoding includes Russian charactors).

Thanks for the reply, may I know how I can change the game text encoding? Do I need any special tool for this? Сould there be problems with fonts if the encoding is changed?

For the script, use nsdec to extract nscript.dat to nscript.txt then use iconv -c -f UTF-8 -t CP936 nscript.txt > 00.txt to convert encoding from utf8 to gbk.

Then there are two kind of archive arc.nsa and arc.sar, the ons engine can only load one of them.
So either extract sar or nsa files to gamedir. You can use nsout to extract nsa file.

I have tested with these steps and it should be work fine. Here is the converted script. 00.zip
