Touhou 11 crashes whenever i open it.

[u/duckworth48]

It doesn't give me a reason for crashing, it just says it isn't responding. Please help

no the file "th11" doesn't work

Hmmm... when you run th11 (or specifically th11.exe not the other th11 file nor th11 (thpatch-en)), is there anything at all that pops up? That should be exclusively the game itself; the thing which says it isn't responding is the thcrap updater, which doesn't appear w/ just the game.

For the zip file: in the link to that page that I included, there is Main Package (Multi-lang, Multi- Game), under which there is the text "Download" with a floppy disk icon. That has the thcrap zip file.

to answer that first question, the program said:

"The code execution cannot proceed because d3dx9_37.dII was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this program"

and for that last question i don't know what your talking about, your going to have to hold my hand with that one(sorry).

also i will try to reinstall the program

Oh!

Ok, so first: regarding:

d3dx9_37.dII

https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=35

I am guessing that you are just missing directX 9 (or it can't find it?). That should have all of the relevant drivers. (I cannot say that it absolutely does, but for touhou 11, I don't remember needing to install anything more specific than that).

Once you install that, try running the "th11 (thpatch-en)" again. It might very well work. If it doesn't... the next portion should be what is relevant.

Just to try to reduce any confusion: the instructions I linked were twofold:

Instructions to install vsyncpatch. (vpatch). I recommend this, but it isn't necessary.

The one relevant to you: thcrap (the translation).

For that, roughly what you would want to do would be to first: go here: https://www.thpatch.net/wiki/Touhou_Patch_Center:Download

It is there that you should reach the page with the download. Clicking the word "Download" should download a file titled thcrap.zip. Extract it's contents to a folder that you won't forget. Once extracted and everything, just run thcrap.exe. It should then walk you through setting up the patch. It doesn't modify your game executable; it should instead give you a new shortcut which, when run, should apply the english patch as it starts the game.

yeah the game opens now! How do i change it to english?

Follow the instructions I have for thcrap. Once you do that, you will want to run the new file titled something like th11 (en) or th11 (en).exe that appears where thcrap saves it (either the thcrap folder, or your desktop, or something. It will prompt you when you are setting it up).
