System requirements and installation instructions _____________________________ The minimum system requirements for Fate/stay night are as follows: 1. Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista (2000/XP recommended) 2. Pentium III 400MHz (800MHz recommended) 3. 128MB RAM for Windows 98/Me, 256MB recommended 192MB RAM for Windows 2000, 384MB recommended 256MB RAM for Windows XP, 512MB recommended 4. 800x600 resolution, High Color (at least 65,536 colors) 5. DirectX 5.0 or higher installed (DirectX 7.0 or Windows Media Player 6.4 required for movie playback) 6. 1.7 GB free hard drive space, 2.5 GB with voice patch 7. DirectSound or compatible soundcard. 8. CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive 9. Mouse and keyboard To install Fate/stay night English, simply run the installer and follow the instructions. To create a new installation you will need the original, Japanese Fate/stay night CDs or DVD, but it is also possible to patch existing installations of either the Japanese game or Fate/stay night English v1.0 (Fate route). Fate/stay night English v2.0 also includes a voice patch, which adds spoken voice to approximately 95% of the dialogue in the game. You will need the Japanese Realta Nua DVD to install the voice patch. 4. Known technical issues _____________________________ a. Due to the operating system not being able to read from the Realta Nua DVD, installing the voice patch may not work properly on Windows 98. We have not been able to isolate the cause of this problem, and it may in fact be merely incidental. b. On PCs with an integrated Intel graphics chipset running Windows Vista, the game may exhibit strobing and/or flashing during scenes that contain light level changes. We have not been able to find a solution for this problem, but it appears to be caused by the video drivers. c. When installing the game using a guest account on Windows Vista, it is recommended to not change the default installation path. If you want to install to a directory outside of Program Files, you will need to set read/write access rights to your installation directory for the guest account manually, after the installation is finished. If you do not have read/write access to the directory, the game will crash. d. Changing the window size when in window mode may cause the screen to become garbled. To solve this, try saving your progress and restarting the game. e. This version of Fate/stay night English only translates the Fate route and the Unlimited Blade Works route. If you enter the third route (Heaven's Feel), the script will revert to Japanese. f. Pressing Shift+F11 will cause the screen to become garbled. This is an internal function of the Kirikiri script engine, press Shift+F11 again to return the view to normal. 5.
