Ah, finally! XD *downloads* I'm dying to continue this especially after ACT I was left on a rather intriguing cliffhanger. O_O

Umm... the new face portraits look great! XD

What level are you at? If you're under 4, then this battle will be almost impossible to win. Doing sidequests will help you in that regard. Did you make Seri cast Disenchant? It'll debuff the boss, but won't work on regen though.

Make sure to unequip Auria before this fight and put all her armour/charm on any of the other characters. If you put most of your points in speed, she'll evade most of your attacks. Putting your characters on guard and/or counter before this fight should help. Use Zaq only for healing. Lastly, charms bought earlier will come in very handy here.

Hoyeah. Finished Act II just a few hours ago, and I have to say, it was even better than Act I. I nearly cried at the end, but maybe I'm just a sucker for SPOILER Auria/Ray. Beautiful moment, 'specially where she made obvious how jealous she was of Vel :3 END SPOILER

I'm just wondering, so that I could finish the extra sidequest. Where do I find the Virad artifact and a model for BIOREK? And I'm talking about Act II here

There is no sound in Act II! What do I now? I finished the first game just in time for it, too. Help!

I tried migrating my save from the first file and trying the second game as a standalone, both successfully, reinstalling etc. But I still have sound in game 1 and no sound in game 2.

Lately people whom I know have been mixed up my dreams quite a lot. Last night I dreamed Auria and Zaq suddenly fell in love, to Auria's wonder and Zaq's dismay. Don't know where that came from, as it's obvious he and Seri are destined for each other.

Why are Auria's people regarded as humans, while her friends, who are obviously human as well, are regarded as not being human? I don't get it.

Try moving the fmodex.dll that came with Act I into your Act II folder and overwrite the one that's there.

Also finished Act II.
The second release improved a lot. I'm happy that the menu is clearly structured now. It would be nice if the menu point "Techniques" would contain the techniques used in battle mode.
Spoiler(highlight to read):
I'm sad that Mia had to die. She just didn't deserve it. I am curious how the story will go on. As things are now, Auria is the leader of the Virad though she has still control over her own body - I bet the Virad captains will be furious when they discouver it. ^^
Btw, when you had to choose to kill either Seri or Vanquish which one was your choice and why? I let Seri to be 'killed' because I thought he would let both go when I show him that I treat them equally even if Vanquish is a stranger. It turned out to be a good choice(even if Seri was injured) because I wouldn't have survived the battle without another character who has the ability to heal.

Go to Biorek after you gained a certain new character.
As for the Virad artifact:Bring him a Virad mask. The monster in the warehouse where Seri was hold drop them. As for the second artifact he asked for, I didn't find anything yet.

Thanks for the suggestion, soutaiyou. I already have that upgraded dll as Act I crashed at the beginning. The latest version of the dll fixed that problem.

I seem to be the only player who has no sound in Act II. I have been to the official site, but I didn't see anything there.

That is weird. Try pushing F1 and see if you have sound disabled for some reason.

Hmm... having no sound is strange... I had almost thought the same thing because when I had downloaded Act II to play as a stand-alone, I moved all files into its own folder and forgot to put the Audio folder that came with it into the same folder... it was when I was looking in the folder that I have all of Amaranthia's homemade games in that I noticed the Audio folder was not in Act II's folder... lol

Edit: someone erase the second posting or this one... I'm wearing a brace on my right arm, so the mouse clicked twice instead of once!

I found nothing referring to sound in the F1 menu, but I hit Reset anyway and tried unchecking a few things as an experiment, then checking them again. No go, so I logged off and rebooted.

What audio directory would that be, xanaphia? Act II came as a zip, and I unzipped everything into its own directory. There are no subdirectories. There are lots of sound files, mostly oggs and a few mp3s. I have no separate Audio directory in Act II, just in Act I as that's how it came.

I had actually copied all the files in Act I into the Act II directory in hopes that might help, but all that did was load Act I, complete with music. Of course, I had overwritten Act II's Game.exe, what a dummy, LOL.

Umm... there was a seperate Audio folder in Act II just like Act I. Try opening your game, then hit F1 and tick 'play BGM and ME' & 'play BGS and SE' and see if it works then.

I know they came with their own Audio folders... I was saying that I had misplaced mine after unzipping it because I directly unzipped it into my Amaranthia Games folder instead of into its own folder.

Now, this is interesting. I had no idea the directory structure in II was supposed to be the same as I, because there was no indication of any subdirectories inside the zip file as there usually is, I examined it to be sure.

So after what you said, I unzipped the file again, checked 'use folder names' this time, and lo and behold! All normal. It seems to be a fault in the way the zip file was created, the subdirectories are hidden from view instead of being shown as they always are. Or perhaps it's just that I have an old version of Winzip and can't see what users of the latest version can see, that could be it.

The problem didn't happen with I, because that installer comes as an executable, not a zip, so everything installed correctly automatically.

Thanks so much to everyone who replied, I was getting desperate. I'm really grateful for your help.

heh... I use jzip instead of winzip for one reason... I can't get winzip to work with Vista... and when I looked for it, it wouldn't give it to me for free... but jzip is a free one, so I immediately got that one instead.

At least she became "human" again, in a way. Still, dumb Ray D:<.
I chose not to kill both =P I almost died when I finished off Kasch.

You mean Vel? Tried talking to him, didn't work D: Is she supposed to be in the active party?
Thanks for the tips
