YU-NO ~ The girl who chants love at the edge of the world
Takuya Arima is a young student whose father, a historian who has conducted varius researches, disappeared recently. During a summer vacation Takuya receives a peculiar package from his missing father, along with a letter containing information about the existence of various parallel worlds. At first Takuya doesn't take it seriously, but soon he realizes that he possesses a device that allows him to travel to alternate dimensions. Is his father alive, after all? If so, where is he?

It came to my attention that one of the best visual novels ever
is not uploaded here. I had to fix that.
The full patch it's not out yet, but it's coming along.
This is the elf classics version the one compatible with the project.
Instructions are inside.

Thanks and looks like the full patch should be finished fairly soon.

This is a game that I'm looking foreward to play, as it has so many good reviews.

Thanks for the upload!


If "soon" means several months to a year, yeah.

Actually the editor told me he'll resume editing
It should be done fairly soon.

anyone else have trouble starting this?

readme says

extracted everything into same folder "YUNO"
double clicked Classic.reg and registered it
mounted crClassic.iso
installed english patch and voice files into YUNO folder

when I press .exe it says the game is not installed

what do I do?

Is the image still mounted?

I get the exact same error. The image is mounted but it says it's not installed. :/

Try open AI5WIN.INI and add bCDROM=0 after [FILE]

I tried that and it didn't help. :(

Sadly, I have the same problem as jHeart.

Wierd. It works for me.
You are running it on Windows Seven?
Are you guys using Aplocalle  or is your system set in Japanese?

japanese locale win7 64bit

For those who have that error saying the game is not installed - do you run the game under the administrator account or as a limited rights user?
The game seems to have some compatibility problems with newer OSes (from my tests I suspect the registry key for the game has incorrect security settings). For example, I'm using WinXP X64 and I have the same error under a non-administrator account. Anyway, in my case the most straightforward solution was to set compatibility to Windows XP.

On second thought, it could be that only 64-bit OSes have this problem.
Hmm, someone answered that it's working fine under Vista 64, but I can't see that post anymore. I'm not sure how the game was was installed in his case, but under a 64-bit Windows
the registry file to be imported should look like the one I attached (with the path changed according to the specific installation, of course).

Thanks Marius! The reg file you put up solved the issue.

is it me or is the music not sounding as good as the pc98 version

You're welcome.

Thanks for reg file

Too damn short prologue! Waiting for this.

just a heads up for the full patch and voice patch are out now at TLwiki

It's been a long wait, but it's finally here. Being flooded with so many releases, brings a tear to my eye :'(

F**k yearhhh!

TLWiki says Use AI5ENG_VOICE.exe to play with voices.But I can't find it in my folder.Is this a full voice or partial?

Direct link to project page: http://tlwiki.tsukuru.info/index.php?title=YU-NO (http://tlwiki.tsukuru.info/index.php?title=YU-NO)

Both parts of the patch as well as directions how to us are found immediately under "releases".

sinamen was actually right? I had doubts thanks to all the trolling regarding the release date.

To anyone who finished the game, is it really full of NTR ?

From what I know, [spoiler]there is only one virgin heroine, another one doesn't really love Takuya and vice-versa, so both of them go their own ways, and there is an attempted rape that eventually happens during a bad end.[/spoiler] It's fun to see how girls who had previous relationships, before meeting the main character, are considered to be NTR'ing him.

Seems like that the Voice.exe file disappears whenever I try to reinstall the english patch.  Probably had something to do with the registry file that I edited, since I am using a 64-bit system and installed the game to the E: drive.  The game is still playable, though.  Funny thing is that the voice.exe file existed until after I stopped playing for the first time.   :P

!Avast antivirus? After update it started deleting voice.exe file.

I'm utterly confused by the plot.

Avast and AVG are two companies known to have two very retarded heuristics engines, which detect things like executable compression as "potential threat" and wipe it out.

Disable heuristics or make an exception in auto-protection rules not to touch your game directories.

Cool, that worked!  Thank you very much, IVXXX & Poiso.   :)

One can certainly spend a lot of time working through each route.  I'm not sure I want to spend the time to work through all the routes but I would like a complete set of the Hcgs.  If anyone has a set and could post it I would be very grateful or a link to a set that can be dled would be nice (I googled but couldn't find a set).

Here's a complete save all CG and bonus stuff

Big Thanks Frizby!!

A music patch was added to TLWiki. The original is mono at 22KHz and the patch is stereo at 44KHz and the size is due to it being uncompressed WAV files, the game wouldn't accept anything else.

Just curious, but has anyone found an easier to use walkthrough? Ive spent quite a bit of time just trying to get certain things to trigger so i can trigger other things and its not making any sense so far lol.

This vn seriously annoyed me. Why there couldn't be good ending for Eriko and Mitsuki? I hope that Ayumi will have better one.

Where are you stuck? Did you read the image walkthrough? The text walkthrough is made too seriously spoiler-free that it does not make sense. I used them both and complete the game with a little problems.

Have you completed the game? Ayumi ending is quite good IMO and there is no Mitsuki ending for a reason.

I only finished Mitsuki route with both endings. Also I know that there is reason for lack of  good ending for her but that does not mean that I must like it.

Where was the image walkthrough? I dont remember seeing that.

Does anyone else have this thing where there's residual text on the top right of the text box? Part of the letters stay there and don't do it right. I tried following the font fix listed on tlwiki but it didn't work.

http://tlwiki.tsukuru.info/index.php?title=File:Yu-no_walkthrough_english.png (http://tlwiki.tsukuru.info/index.php?title=File:Yu-no_walkthrough_english.png)

In case the destination place isn't mentioned in text walkthrough so use this to get rid of wasting time randomly go to place by place.

Ah thanks.

Need some help.

I'm stuck on Mio's route.

Laboratory (gave mio her diary) -> 2nd floor corridor (met Yuuki) -> Coast (spoke to workers) -> Shrine (Kanna & Mio event) -> Geo Technics (talked to guard) -> School Gate (bumped into 'foxy mama') and here's where i'm stuck. I go to the 2nd floor corridor, but no matter what I do the 'Mitsuki & Mio' event doesn't trigger. I've clicked on everyone and everything I can in every area accessible at this point, have also completed everything leading up to Mio's route according to the walkthrough (written). So if someone who has completed this could tell me what the hell i'm doing wrong i'd very much appreciate the help. Thanks in advanced.

Edit: Guess no one knows. Oh well guess i'll just explore all the other paths and try again later to see if it unlocks.

Hum... I'm not sure if it's gonna work, but i had a similar problem...
I was stuck at Kanna's route, just after going to talk with the workers, I was supposed to witness a event at School (with Foxy Mama), however, the event didn't trigger.
I went back to the Coast and clicked everywhere, and at the workers a lot of times, and when I went back, the event went on like normal...
Well, maybe you already made it work, but good luck, anyway!


PS: Sorry for the bad english.

Thanks for trying to help. Still no luck following the written walkthrough, but it isn't a problem.

Don't worry about your english, you're much better than a lot of people who use it as their first and only language ;)

Can anyone help me with the Jewel in the Storehouse? i cant seem to find it anywhere, the black metal door is locked, I think it leads to the back room according to the walkthrough but I dont know how to open it.

It's the final jewel and I'm really frustrated right now. Hope you guys can help.

Cheers

Have you seen the machine thingy inside the back room? Im pretty sure you need to go through the mansion to find that back room and then it will do a warp to somewhere else

I think the door will open somehow the second time you visit the storehouse after seeing that machine

Oh so that's it, I havent got to the backroom yet, thanks for noticing.

No problem :)

hey guys,since the patch adds some exclusive CGs from the Saturn port,but not all of them due to technical reasons,does anybody know where I can find a CG pack of the Saturn version?Google did not help me on this one...

ok I downloaded the mediafire folder.
installed the patch and moved the classics cue and bin file to the created folder.
then did the registry fix.
When i start the game i get the option for color or monochrome and then it goes black and nothing happens any help?

This is a great game, i would rate this like a 8.0 out of 10. It pretty challenging and most people cant beat this without a walkthrough.
On another note I'm near the end but can't find the last jewel in the study if any one could help, i could finally put this game to rest.

@azreil1: which application are you running, the ai5eng_voice or the ai5eng? if your are running these and its still doing that try to uninstall it then reinstall the game.

It's inside the clock in the Study room.

Cheers,  :D

Hey I am having a problem with the game.  Every time I try to start it up using the AI5ENG file or the AI5ENG_VOICE file, I get the page that says whether I want to play the game in colours or not.  no matter which option I pick, the screen goes black and stays black.  Any reason why this is happening? I am running on Windows 7 X64 and have tried running it as an administrator and also by just double clicking the file.  I heard something about a registry file that I need to add or something?

If someone could either post or PM me I would be grateful.  I have heard that this is a good game from many people.
