Fate/stay night [Realta Nua] instructions and suggestions

      Fate/stay night [Realta Nua] instructions and suggestions

1) Unzip the "Fate Stay Night Realta Nua English" file and follow its readme.
   Don't read the "Frequent asked questions" section of the readme (some spoilers are present there).
   Moreover, do not open the "Flowchart" pdf before completing at least the first route (100% spoilers).

   Patching recommendations:
      - "English patches": Needed, not optional.
      - "H mod": Recommended. Adds H scenes (which can be enabled or disabled) and some violent pictures
         (which were censored in the 15+ version). Also restores the text that was censored in the Realta Nua
         version, giving the original experience of the original version.
      - "Vita op": Recommended. Adds new 1080p openings made for the PSVita version.
      - "Vita ost": Not recommended during the first playthrough. Adds a remixed soundtrack, made for the
         PSVita version, which is not as good as the original soundtrack.
      - "Flowchart": Recommended. Although it is an ingame version of the pdf, it is only unlocked after
         completing the whole game, so there's no risk of spoilers. After completing the game, the
         flowchart can be enabled from the menu bar during gameplay.

2) Download and install the latest LAVFilters from https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases
   These codecs are needed to watch the openings.

3) Unzip the route you need and its fix.
   (Recommended order of routes: Fate -> Unlimited Blade Works -> Heaven's Feel.)

4) Remove the / from the game folder's name, otherwise you'll get an error.

5) Copy the content of the fix into the game folder, then delete the Fate___.exe file and change the
   name of the file Fate/stay night[Realta Nua] ___.exe to the name of the file you just deleted.

6) Read the section about keyboard shortcuts at the end of this guide (optional).

7) Run the file Fate___.exe you just renamed and set fullscreen from the menu bar.

8) Enjoy.


N) Don't watch the videos in the Openings section of the Extra menu them before they are shown to you
   during the playthrough.
   Completely skipping the openings of the Heaven's Feel route, especially the second one, is also
   strongly recommended, since they contain heavy spoilers. Just watch them after you finish the route.


Solving graphical problems:

Some graphic processors, like the Intel HD integrated graphics, show some glitches on the sides of
the screen during and after action scenes. You can either bear with them, or download a program called
"Reso", which sets your resolution to 800x600 every time you play.

If you decide to use the program:
1) Download it from http://www.bcheck.net/apps/reso.exe
2) Run the program, browse for the exe of the route you're going to play (Fate___.exe) and select
   resolution 800x600.
3) Click on create shortcut and save the shortcut somewhere (preferably in the Start Menu folder).
Every time you want to play the VN:
1) Close every window you don't want to be resized when the screen gets smaller.
2) Run the shortcut.
3) When you exit the screen size is restored automatically.
Make sure to set "Keep aspect ratio" in the scaling settings of your graphics device, otherwise the
images will appear stretched if you're using a widescreen monitor.
