#visual aid

This follows the PC guide and covers how to install English patches + save files. Installing the emulator and installing games are in part one.

Hello! This is part two of a visual aid meant to follow this tutorial posted by @chestnut-trotter !! All credit goes to them; I just wanted to make a helpful guide for anyone who needs it.

Text/steps from the original tutorial have been colored pink.

ENGLISH PATCH INSTALLATION

Regarding the original links to the patches, some may have different download methods that should be fairly self-explanatory :)

1. Inside Vita3k, right-click on the game you just installed, press Open folder > Application > data.

2. Now, opening the folder you just downloaded (if its a zip, i reccomend you unzip before copying anything over) copy all the cpk files in the data folder, and paste them into data folder of the game you just opened through Vita3k in step 1. You will be replacing a combination of either the GAME.cpk, STORY.cpk or SYSTEM.cpk files depending on the game. I don't know why they're different, just depends on who and how they were patched I suppose. But this will replace most of the in-game text with english (most importantly the story haha)

2. With the data folder open, open a separate file tab where the patch file is located (likely your downloads). From here, drag it over into the data file. Keep in mind that you SHOULD see that the newly downloaded English patch has the same name as the original Japanese one.

If done correctly, it should give you this pop-up window. Click ‘Replace the file in the destination’.

If you’re downloading multiple patches in one session, I'd highly recommend downloading them one at a time to avoid any confusion with file names.

1. Close Vita3k again, then reopen it. 2. You are now ready to play Diabolik Lovers >:)

As @chestnut-trotter said, now you're ready to meet your vampire boy toys (•̀ᴗ•́)و ̑̑ !!

SAVE FILES

This is completely my own thing, separate from the original tutorial.

You may notice that when booting up the game, you receive this string of code in the Vita3K emulator.

Don't fret!! It looks scary, but the solution is rather simple. Whenever you're able to save in-game, select 'Enter' to open this menu (or whatever key you have it set up as).

Once here, navigate to the 'Save'. Once you're able to see the save slots, use your MOUSE instead of the keyboard controls. If you attempt to save with the keyboard, it will not work. It will ask you to confirm to save, and simply use your mouse for that as well.

So far, I haven't had any issues with saving like this despite the number of times it gives me the red code. I can load saves just fine. If you aren't experiencing this issue, then continue being worry-free!

That's it! The last bit about the save files plagued me for the last two days. I can't even convey to y'all how embarrassed I felt after finding out all I had to do was use my MOUSE. Oh well, the problem has been solved!

(ID in alt text)

Please stop putting inside jokes and witticisms in your alt text and image IDs. They do not help disabled people at all and confuse us. Alt text is for conveying the details of the image only. It's a necessary aid, not a space to put *wink wink* references in the hope that able bodied people will get it. This includes things like:

example: the image of a horror "deer" type monstrous entity, like the deer from annihilation or hannibal. don't caption it as "not deer" or "is that a deer? is that a ghost? who can say?" it's not funny or poetic, it's just fucking obnoxious for someone with no/low vision.

a fan art of katara from avatar the last airbender, wearing her usual outfit. DON'T CAPTION IT: "Katara in her usual outfit" describe the character and the outfit, even briefly. write: "katara, a dark skinned indigenous girl with dark hair and blue eyes, wearing a blue and white tunic, dark coloured pants and a blue betrothal necklace".

do not use weird fonts, emojis or the like in your caption. they are not easily read and often confused by alt text reader.

If you have thoroughly described the image, go ahead with jokes in context (for example, say, an exaggerated cartoon of Jeremy Allen White, you have described that his eyes are portrayed to be "uncannily blue", now you can make a joke about the blue eyes): but keep in mind, can the disabled person understand it without necessary context, given the way you have presented it? If not, are you using visual aid not for us, but to make inside jokes with non-disabled folk?
