I have the Japanese version of rpg maker and I want it to be translated. I am to put 5 fonts in my default (or is there any other way) can you explain it to me how to do it please?
Here is the faqs I got with the disk


Q. I have installed the game software, but all I can see is Japanese
text and/or nonsense script, how do I sort it?

A. To get into the translated game, you need to double click the shortcut
on your desktop named "RPG Maker XP Translation". If this still brings up
the Japanese version try fully reinstalling the whole game from the disk.
If that doesnt work, there could possibly be a problem with the font
directory on your computer. The setup package automatically puts the english
font files in see:\WINDOWS\FONTS, so head over to that folder, and copy the files:

cour.Ttf
msuigothic.Ttf
sserife.Fon
SSERIFF0.FON

Put them in your default font folder (via control panel)
