[edit] Setting up your computer to run AG3

1. Go to Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options, in the tab Advanced make sure Japanese is selected as Language for non-Unicode programs.
2. In the tab Languages, click the Details... button. This will bring the Text Services and Input Languages dialog box.
3. Click the Add... button. Select Japanese as Input Language and Microsoft IME Standard 2002 ver 8.1 as IME.
4. Make sure your normal language is set as default in Default input language so you can use your other applications as usual
5. (Optional) Click Language Bar and make sure Show the Language bar on the desktop is checked.

Your computer is set to run AG3 ! (You might have to restart your computer)

[edit] Don't want to set Japanese as system default?

• If you aren't an administrator, or if you just don't want to make everything assume it's in Japanese (see step 1), you can use this alternative.
• If you have a genuine copy of Windows XP or Vista, you can download the AppLocale utility from Microsoft and run AG3 through that. (You could probably find it from a non-Microsoft site even without having a genuine copy, but that's illegal, and we all know you won't do that. ;-))
• The AppLocale utility displays the languages in their native tongue. If you didn't already know, Japanese is "nihongo", which appears as ”日本語”. It should be selected for you by default (otherwise listed as the last option should manual selection be needed.)
• Create a shortcut on your desktop so you don't have to go all the way through the wizard again. It'll still bug you with a popup that it's intended for temporary purposes only, but it'll still save a mouseclick or two.
• Perform steps 2 through 5 above as normal.

[edit] Typing Japanese in the name box

• Click in the edit field
• Press ALT + SHIFT to switch to Japanese Input.
• Press CTRL + CAPSLOCK to switch to Hiragana.
• If that doesn't work, you can go to General, then to Advanced, pick a command that does work, then select it to Hiragana Key.
• You can now type Japanese using romaji, for example type "hayate" for "はやて" (notice the gray border around the text)
• Don't forget to press RETURN after entering the name, the gray border should disappear.

You must have set your "Language for non-Unicode programs" or be running the AppLocale activity or else this will fail and you will only get question marks.

((( Or to skip all that, get the save000.rar from HongFire. )))

And then copy its save000.js3wrd file to where you have installed AG3, like for an example, "C:\illusion\AG3\data\save". (Btw, unused copies of this file, that I have renamed to like "save001.js3wrd", "save002.js3wrd", etc, are working as new "AG3 worlds" for me, so far, mates.)

((( Or better still, get the [AG3][v1.03] English Launcher Release 3.5 )))

Then you can just type-in your own words.

And you will quickly find that in Hentai Game Mods (Downloads).

[edit] Problems on 64bit Windows OS

(Moved by ToxicKing) I'm speaking about Vista64. The workaround doesn't seem to be needed on WinXP Pro x64.

I had to change the path in the registry in order to start the game. Else i was put back to desktop.

Change the path from

• HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/Illusion

to

• HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/Wow6432Node/Illusion

Easiest way to do this is to export the path, edit it with notepad and import it again. After that, the old (without Wow6432Node) can be deleted.

This helps on other 32bit programs, too.

[edit] Compatibility Issue with AMD/ATI Radeon HD2600XT (and 2400/2900)

The Ati Catalyst 7.11 and 7.12 Driver have some texture glitch with Artificial Girl 3, the most noticeable place is the eye gloss texture (that the eye gloss texture will stay 100% visible even if you set the eye gloss to only 10% in character creation for example.). Players with Ati Catalyst 7.11 and 7.12 Driver and ATI Radeon HD2000 Series graphics hardware will have to roll back to Ati Catalyst 7.10 to fix this issue.

There are also noticeable over-blur problem in the bathroom and this can be fixed by turning off the blur effect in the option setting before starting the game. (Tested in ATI 8.4 Hotfix Driver with Radeon 2600XT)

Note: This issue is tested in Windows XP SP2 with Radeon 2600XT and 2900.

[edit] Cursor/Mousewheel problem during Missionary Penetration Stage (May be others too?)

First, to explain this, on Missionary say there is confirmed stages Cunnilingus -> Pre-penetration -> Penetrated. Cunnilingus: Self-explanatory. Pre-penetration: Stage where she asks you for condom. Penetrated: Inside her.

So apparently the mousewheel action speed up works, but somehow during the Missionary Penetration Stage, scrolling up or down on the mousewheel - while it be leftclick+drag on hand/lip/mushroom or just hovering over the mushroom, scrolling does not do anything. What actually happens is, trying to scroll up or down on mushroom (or leftclick+drag) will make the cursor is reset to the bottom right, offscreen, and then the guy reverts to the previous pre-penetration stage from penetrated stage, or back to cunnilingus from pre-penetration stage. But auto-action on scrolling works during Cunnilingus stage... So this means nothing progresses after Cunnilingus stage which does work with mousewheel and can make the girl at last shiny stage or even cum, but during the penetration stage leftclick+drag mushroom, all he does is penetrate girl and stop (no further actions). Clicking on mushroom at this stage is probably a manual thrust, but does not seem to have an effect on her. Anyone else have this issue? Looking for a fix - have not yet encountered any other stage besides missionary so it's hard to say if it is just for this or I am doing it wrong - but I'm pretty sure I've tried all combinations and ideas.

- This isn't the place to post problems that you're having with the game especially when you don't have a solution.
