Can't play FinalA with Reimu Solo

I searched the wiki and I can't find any info on whether certain characters cannot play certain Final stages. Despite selecting FinalA after defeating Reisen, I keep being redirected to FinalB. Is it a bug? Or Reimu Solo ALWAYS selects FinalB? I played through FinalB the first time round, before completing FinalA for Reimu...

You have to clear both finals with a given character before you can choose between them... Or have you done that? Sorry if I misunderstood. -7HS

Well, I'm saying that I should go to FinalA if it's my first time using that character, right? But in my case I get the selection menu for FinalA or FinalB. But no matter what I choose, I am still sent to FinalB instead. I also have the same problem when I go with the other solo characters.

You need to patch your game to 1.00d or something..I got to final A with that version Kuradachi 17:41, 23 July 2007 (PDT)

Why don't downloaded replays work?

As the title. Game crashes when I go to Replays after I place downloaded replay files in my replay directory.

Other than that, my replays tend to screw up once in awhile (wrong movement). How do I solve this?

Have you patched up to version 1.00d? --Psieye

Ok, I tried patching, but for some reason I can't patch past 1.00a. The patching program just doesn't continue.

There are 2 separate patching programs. You now need this one. --Psieye

Yeah, I know. It's just that it's not working for me. I run it the same way as I did the 1.00a patch, but it just fails to install. :(

Text dump here.

?????? [I:\eiya\eiya_update100a_100d.exe] ????????????????????... ??????????? [I:\eiya\] ?????????????????... ???????????????????[MD5??????]... @@--> [I:\eiya\readme.txt] MD5??????????... @@--> [I:\eiya\replayview.exe] MD5??????????... @@--> [I:\eiya\th08.dat] MD5??????????... @@--> [I:\eiya\th08.exe] MD5??????????... @@--> [I:\eiya\‚¨‚Ü‚¯.txt] MD5??????????... [???] ??????????????????. ?????????????????????. ??????????????????... ?????????????????.

The installer fails because it can't find some txt. Run it in japanese mode using applocale and it will display which txt it is missing. copy the japanese characters then go to the installation directory and create said txt (or rename the existing underscore one if you got it from simulationstyle) and run the installer again. then it will complain that it cant fain the manual directory, so do the same for the underscore directory and run the installer a third time. it should continue all the way through this time.

the txt should be named おまけ.txt and the directory マニュアル

It's because Simulation Style sucks. --Pilpsie

At Minimum, you should be using AppLocale. Optimally, you should be doing this while in full Japanese mode (Regional and Language Settings from Control Panel). --Psieye

Yeah, I changed the language, so now I can see what it actually says. Something like I interrupted it or something? No way, I never interrupted it, and I still can't get it to work. :( Any ideas?

Yeah. Get it from someplace other than Simulation Style. --Pilpsie

We discussed this on the Simulation Style forums actually. As strange as it may be, if you really can't find an alternate source, then re-download while in Full Japanese mode. I've no idea why that's supposed to work but it's got anecdotal evidence.

The best way to ensure that you have a proper installation of IN is to actually run the installer (i.e., mount an ISO or, gasp, buy the actual CD) while in Japanese IME. This should fix the problem with patching. Moogy ^(talk) 09:02, 19 April 2007 (PDT)

Anime references

Some time ago I've noticed that in the anime series "ef - A Tale of Memories" in the first episode one of the characters plays "Imperishable Night". The logo on the right side of the screen and the characters are different, but the screen layout, level graphics and stats are clearly IN's. Have anyone else noticed such indirect references to Touhou in the other anime? Renivall Jeagerjacques 13:02, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Isn't there a giant Reimu Yukkuri in the PaniPoniDash OVA? ~~Takoto 18:22, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Imperishable Night - What font is ZUN using?

Does anyone know which font ZUN uses in Imperishable Night (I need to know the font that is used in-battle, in-spell cards, the font used for the words that say, for example "WRIGGLE SIGN "LITTLE BUG STORM""). Can anyone help me? Does anyone have a download for the font? ~~Takoto 22:53, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

- The font is DF Lei Sho W 5 Japanese, which costs $554 USD. Your best bet is to just create sample texts from here --Formless God 05:14, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Ah, I meant the font used in the English patch... sorry... and $554 for a font? Absolutely outrageous. ~~Takoto 18:19, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Imperishable 9...

In Overdrive it says Touhou 9 Imperishable night It says 8 on here. This was NOT a triumph! 19:36, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

It's 8. I'm not sure why they'd refer to it as 9, it could be their own numbering scheme or whatever, I don't know much about overdrive. VS3025 21:25, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

No menu, enemies, or bullets

When I open IN only the title screen shows up. The music is there and if I press enter, the game starts but there is only the music and background. Can someone help plz?--Night of derps (talk) 22:19, May 27, 2013 (UTC)
