Out of curiosity - how are you measuring fps for this game? I tried DXVK_HUD but it did nothing...

If you press F2, the status of the FPS will appear in the top bar of the window.

That was much easier then I thought... :). Thanks!

The game works fine for me in wine 6.0 and earlier. It has problems with fps in wine 6.4 and up. Didn't test it for 6.1 - 6.3. So, I suggest to try it in wine 6.0 in your setup.

By the way, do you know japanese or does this game has a translation somewhere?

Oh, it's working fine on Wine 6.0 (Intel only)! Thanks!!

I'm still learning Japanese, unfortunately there is no translation yet.

As someone who, ahem, play a lot of RPG Maker games, VX usually are more stable than MV in my experience (though sometimes I forgot to install the runtime for VX first after a re-install or deleting wine prefixes). So far the only VX game I had problem with was Country Girl Keiko which tbf is 4 games compiled into one game, each games having their own Game folder, probably creating some issues with working directory or something.

For maximum compatibility though, IIRC disabling or changing d3d9 dll (or was it d3d11? Pretty sure it's d3d9) and setting LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 (or LC_ALL, though that one will re-configure your wine prefix) to be good enough for most RPG Maker games.

Setting LANG variable is all right, but how are you disabling specific dlls inside a prefix?

You can either use winecfg with the right WINEPREFIX variable, or use [WINEDLLOVERRIDES](https://askubuntu.com/questions/254086/how-do-i-override-a-dll-without-using-the-winecfg-gui-in-wine) which is more of a hassle but sometimes it's your only option in cases like when you're using Lutris or don't want to mess with winecfg. I usually just open winecfg, disable the relevant dll, then run the game while keeping the winecfg open so that I don't forget to re-enable it.

Also, there was [two](https://learnjapanese.moe/vn-linux/) [guides](https://gist.github.com/eshrh/5bbf4deab58fefdab9eacf77b450efc0) on how to run Japanese VNs I found a few days ago, which is all about running Japanese games in general, so it might be worth a read. I did make sure to create its own wine prefix though, and then added a menu item to launch the game using that Wine Prefix and using the JP language, to make it easier to open from file manager instead of using Lutris.

Those links look helpful, thanks for the answer!
