The newest patch fixes about 600 spell/translation-misses mainly inside the story route of Kudryavka Noumi.

Thank you for your continued support.:kud:

With this update a new sound feature is added. Additionally fixing several issues.

■ "Sound API" feature added
Under certain systems the first 1～2 seconds of voices or sound effects being played are delayed.
To avoid this we added the option "Sound API" inside the "System" tab of the "Config" menu.If this problem occurs with your system please change it from "WASAPI" to "DirectSound".

This change will take effect after you restart the game

(※Please understand that if you choose "DirectSound", some sounds may be cut off inside scenes with several sound effects occurring at the same time.)

■ Corrected about 110 spell-misses inside the English translation

■ Fixed the game occasionally becoming unstable during the baseball mini-game

Just idle the game for 1 hour and Steamcards will drop!

■ If the BGM volume is set higher than default, the ending music wouldn't play
We solved the issue of the ending music not playing if the BGM volume in the game settings is set higher than "12".

■ With certain systems, the game would stop during an effect inside Saya's route
We fixed the problem of the game stopping at some point inside Saya's route with certain systems.

■ When skipping movies some effects inside the main game are skipped as well
We solved the effect skipping issue inside Saya's route if you skipped the opening and ending movie of the game.

■ If during gameplay the sound device is being removed, the movie play speed is higher than default
We fixed the problem of movies playing too fast if you are removing your headphone or continuing the game without a sound device.

■ When loading from a save file and selecting an option inside the meeting before the baseball match, the game stops running
We fixed the issue that if you are saving during the meeting right before the baseball match and selected "Consult Kyousuke" or "Consult Rin", the game stopped running.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
Thank you very much for your patience.

・Systems using surround sound configurations show an error message and the game stops running

Starting the game with sound settings of 2.1 channels or above(2.1/3.1/5.1/7.1) showed the following error message:

AudioClient->Initialize()
code : AUDCLNT_E_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT 88890008

This issue has been fixed and the game sound output will be in stereo (2 channels).

・Although he minimum system specs are fulfilled, under some Windows 7 systems an error message shows up and the game stops running

With some Windows 7 systems, that fulfill the minimum system requirements, the graphic card driver has compatibility issues and shows the error message

"DirectX11 initialization failed."

In some cases this message showed up and the game stopped running, but this issue has been resolved. (※ 1)

We apologize for the inconvenience.


※1
If even after this update the error message "DirectX11 initialization failed." shows up, this may be due to insufficient graphic cards specs; your card may not support "DirectX 11".

Please follow these steps to check your graphic card's supported DirectX versions:

1. Push the Windows Key and search for "dxdiag" in the program/folder search bar.

2. When "dxdiag.exe" shows up please click the file

3. The DirectX diagnostics tool window will show up. Please click on the "Display" tab

4. On the right side of the window under "Driver" you can see the "DDI Version" that shows you the supported DirectX version of your graphic card.
If it shows for example "9" your card only supports versions till "DirectX 9" and won't work under "DirectX 10".
To play Little Busters! English Edition the DDI Version has to be 10 or above.
(DDI Version 10 means DirectX 10 (Windows Vista generation) is supported on your graphic card).

Little Busters! English Edition needs a DDI 10 or above compatible graphic card. Following specs need to be fullfilled:
A graphic card supporting DirectX 10 or above / VRAM 512MB or more (GeForce 8400 or above, Radeon HD2400 or above)

If you still encounter problems please send us an email to our support address:

With the new update we changed the following features:

・After showing the error message “DirectX11 initialization failed” the game stops running

Inside the last update, with the intend to make the game more stable, we added the error message window

”DirectX11 initialization failed.”

After showing this error message the game stops working (this is intended), but since this error doesn’t hinder the game from running, we decided to delete minor error messages inside the game.

・Even minor errors may lead to a slower game speed. If you encounter such problems (error messages included) please update your video card driver first

・Even with the newest video card driver the game may stop running and shows up an error message. In this case please send an email to our support address
vausa@product.co.jp.

We apologize for the trouble caused with the last update and hope you will enjoy the rest of the game. We will keep the game up to date with further patches.
