Because RPGMaker MV is based on NW.js (formerly Node-Webkit) you can download the Linux version of NW.js from https://nwjs.io and copy those files over top of the NW.js files that the game shipped with then run the nw binary.
That’s enough for ~80% of RPGMaker MV games, the rest have case-sensitivity issues so I’ve just been running all RPGMaker MV games on top of ciopfs.
Great game played it and loved it, just a bit dissatisfied that I can't play as a vampires Mila last regular chapter. I assume I get soft locked, because when that chapter starts I'm vampires and regular Mila gets added and there's both Milas in my team and after talking to Faahlda I get stuck because Faahlda can't stand next to me to continue the animation, because regular Mila stands between us, or I just didn't wait long enough( version 5.0.1). Still great game, loved it
once you get to the fifth chapter, you are locked out of the vampire route. Im not sure if you accessed it later through the dev room or a glitch or something?
Found an unintended feature (or as some may call it a bug), in chapter 2-V if you try to enter humilen forest from lower half of the path, you warp to the past, and then can continue the regular story from where you left of ( I had left of just before chapter 5)
Sorry, for the inconvenience, but because of developmental complications, importing older saves has never been possible for my game. Doing so leads to unforeseeable errors at multiple points in the game, because various aspects are adjusted under the hood. To circumvent this issue somewhat, I include multiple save files at varying points of progression to help returning players get back up to speed.
For specific save data tweaking, my patrons have access to a developer room, which contains skips to specific chapters, access to nearly all items in the game, level and gold modification, and more.
I'm afraid that you will always get these sorts of comments, even when the game is fully released. During the release for this next and any future versions, you need to put out a message: "PLEASE DON'T IMPORT OLD SAVE DATA!" so SOME PEOPLE might notice.
it’s in the readme file of the game and posted on a bunch of other places. I can’t force people to read the file though and I don't want to be abrasive about it. At this point, ive just created a catch-all copy/paste response for people asking about save imports.
i remenber my highest level as a vampire hunter without using a save editor being 32(at that point i got every single weapon and skill even from contracts) -Abyssal28 edit1: it was before chapter 4 ending i made it through everything but i wonder how many new enemies/potential allies mila will have cause i am a bit heart broken after she lost everything at the end of chapter 4 including her friends and family now my question is...will she doom everyone or in the end it will be a soul for a soul(mila dies to defeat amber or faahlda sacrifice herself to power up mila to almost Archangel level?)
Nah man, i believe the plot is heading in this direction. Mila will enter the floating castle in hopes of ending Amber. The angelic gear will save us from a great deal of trouble, because once it's equipped, the vampirism status will never bother us again. After a huge time of grinding on the dangerous locations of the castle filled with new and dangerous enemies we will accend to a room that resembles a throne room, we will see Amber siting on her throne. After a short dialogue, we will charge at her and the battle will start.
What i am about to ask will defenetly be insane but hear me out. The drop rate of the vampire dust should be a guaranteed drop from the vampire enemies.
While I won’t be doing that, there will be something you can find in this update that ups the drop rate. It’ll make any late game grinding much more enjoyable.
Hi again, I just wanted to ask if the story has been updated yet. Where I stopped was when that girl (sorry totally forgot her name lol) the angel took us up to the castle in the sky
cause its been a since I updated the game (mostly cause am busy these days) so I would like to know
P.S wish you the best in developing one of the best game I ever played :)
I am currently working on the conclusion to the main story, which is the follow up to the update you played. It’s currently scheduled to release sometime in October.
Hey! So, I started playing 5.0.1 on Joiplay this morning and uh... the questlog isn't there? It's like assets are missing or something. Can this be fixed?
I’m not familiar with Joiplay. It may be an emulation issue conflicting with the quest log plugin. If you are playing this on an android based device, perhaps try looking for a different app that can run the game, since this is the first time this particular issue has been brought to my attention.
Yeah, I was thinking there was a conflict like that somewhere. Come to think of it, this is the second time this had happened. Catgirl's Questlist had a similar issue on Joiplay. Every other rpgm game I've emulated on Joiplay didn't have the issue, but those games also didn't have quest logs. Huh. Well, thanks anyway. Guess it's back to the android port I go lol
So there doesn't seem to be any way to save or load save files through the index.html method of playing the game, and i can't use the .exe file cos for w/e reason the game doesn't play nice with Wine, which is unfortunate cos this seems like a neat game, i'll definitely keep an eye on it and try and figure out a way for me to play on my set up.
Yeah, I've scrolled through some sites that are hosting it and I've seen these very complaints. Oddly enough, I've also seen comments saying I've locked the save feature behind my patreon to get people to pay for it. My game is literally free lol.
i'm sorry people are accusing you of such silly things :S i read that it probably has something to do with how save files are managed on the browser (it uses cookies instead of the traditional save method) so you have to specifically have something for that but i dunno? i know nothing about programming, anyway i hope i can figure out a way to get Wine to work with out but regardless i wish you luck with developing the game :))
Thanks, I've unlocked it now. I have to say that I really liked the end of Bianca's story. Bianca's story was so sad that I'm glad she now has a happy ending. I also liked the last 2 pictures very much, especially the picture PIC 110. Bianca is sooooo cute.
sheesh talk about a lot of stuff to go through. i love the combat mechanics and i thoroughly enjoyed both routes. im rubbing my hands together waiting for more of the vampire route
The android port was not created by me and I don’t have an android device to test it. I believe the person who ported it mention you open it by tapping the screen with two fingers. Hope that helps.
The android port was not created by me and I don’t have an android device to test it. I believe the person who ported it mention you open it by tapping the screen with two fingers. Hope that helps.
I have a question that might be a bit of a spoiler to new players. I think I can phrase it in a way that won't spoil. But is it something I can ask here or is there somewhere else I can ask because I'm very curious about something
You've probably answered this or maybe I've even just skimmed over it. But how do you open the solid gold chests? I've found so many of them, Rank 15 at the moment. Am I missing something or am I not able to open them yet?
It's a really good game I got one of the older versions to download on my Chromebook and For some reason I can't get this one to start I can download it But it just keeps giving me the same Turn on iOS developer mode Which I have on to lunch the game So I'm kind of stuck
I'm going to mess around And see if I can fix it If not I don't know Cuz I do want to play it.
Okay I actually fixed it I have to go through the terminal and run some commands But now I can play the game.
This game is super impressive. I completed everything on normal route and the vampire route and I can't wait for more. It took at least 5 or 6 tries, but I did manage to beat Dorian before ending chapter 4.
It's also impressive how many bad endings you implemented. You added extra content to many of them which you didn't have to do. Much more effort than I expected when if first downloaded the game.
Also i forgot to mention, in case someone didnt manage to play the latest version yet, here is a tip. Equip the crystal plate when you go in chapter 5, i won't spoil too much, keep a certain amount of surprise.
So, back again and so sorry to bring up the same problem. You were right the last time I did save within files 1-5, which are used for your save starts to help players reach where they used to be.
I started over, saving on Files 10 and 11, 11 just as a back up. When I started the game again today, the save states were just completely deleted. I might have just misunderstood your reply, when saying it's for returning players. Do the saves get deleted every time the game turns off?
I meant that the save files are there so that returning players do not have to start all the way from the beginning if they played an older version of the game. Save files created in a previous version will cause all sorts of unforeseen issues.
So, you can either start a fresh save file or use the included files to start at a point closer to where you last left off (in your old save file).
Alternatively, my patrons have access to a developer room with cheats and skips to get you even closer to the point you were before without any compatibility issues.
Thank you for the reply, I think now it might be my WinRAR to open the games. I tried with a completely different game last night and the same thing happened. I've never had this issue with games before, but now I have it with two.
Hey so I was playing the 5.0.1 windows release. It's an amazing game and I was very happy to play it. But I have a question about the save games.
I discovered your game on Gamesofdesire where the save system doesn't work and reads "this save is for a different game." I was very happy when downloading the game, that it saved, but when I launched the game again to play it a second time, all of my save slots had been replaced with completely different saves that I never made. Even further into the game than I was. Just curious if this is a common issue or if I did something wrong.
This game has save file compatibility issues between versions. If you use a save file created in older versions, you’ll run into an error. To somewhat remedy this, I include save files at different points i. The game to help returning players quickly return to the last point they were without having to start from scratch. If your save file was replaced, then it must have been the same file number as the ones I created.
I managed to play the latest version. It's so good man, this game is a growing masterpiece, i ABSOLUTLY love it. Also nice job on reworking Dorian, the battle doesn't take forever to finish, and i had to struggle for a bit. Not impossible to defeat, but not too easy to kill. Keep up the good work, i look forward to the next versions.
Thanks so much! I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the latest content. These updates take months of work for me to prepare, but it’s all worth it to hear comments like yours!
Also idk who said it but i managed to find the 2 moonstones in the game, the first one is available after you take the 3 dark orbs from Ashe then go to Rinaldo's study which is found underneath the throne, then keep walking forward and go collect everything you can. The moonstone is inside a pot.
Well I have to say THIS GAME IS THE BEST. Thanks very much for making this game
This game is my first 18+ game and its the only game for now that's got me super immense in the story some other games had really short story, missions and areas which was really annoying and killed my love for rpg maker games in the past but I got to say you really really really impressed me with the lots of areas enemies and lots of dialogue you put into it and some other works you put in it must have taken you alot of time and energy to make this
I don't really like leaving reviews but I just had to because of the wonderful experience it took me a week and a half to finish 😅 since I was a bit busy and since this is my first review in my first 18+ game i just to tell you THANKS ALOT I WILL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO FUTURE UPDATES 😁😁
P.S that ancient vampire dorian boss fight was super difficult I had to grind for vampire materials and gold to defeat which was great touch to the game It gives players fight enemies we use to avoid in other to level up more to see if we could defeat I lost to him every chapter till I got to the end 😅
And also could you add a theatre mode so that we could watch all the sex scenes instead of loading saves it will really help trust me
Okay that's all I have to say sorry if this long review takes your time
You will encounter that error if you are using a save file created in an earlier version where those assets didnt exist. Please use the included save files for proper compatibility.
Hey mkru, loving the game. I also had a question as well. I like to create small dnd modules and this seems really fun? Mind if I ask you for some help. Not asking for anything money wise either. I just love to create stuff.
Man, you weren't dickering when you said Dorian will be harder to beat.
My first attempt was as soon as his fight became available. It was more of accessing how strong he is than actually trying to win. Eyes were widened when I was OTK'd with two NORMAL attacks.
My 2nd was before entering Fallhault Castle while decked out with diamond gear. It went well, but I quickly realize that couldn't juggle between healing myself and attacking.
My 3rd (and currently last) attempt was the one I thought I could actually win. Just before the abandoned hospital, Lv 25, Magna Flash, all contracts completed and all perm' stat buffs I could find at the time. I was doing really well and right when I thought I was about to beat Dorian...
phase 2 happened!
Now I am really accessing if I can really beat Dorian before Chapter 5

any way to play on a Linux machine? (aka how can one bypass the .exe file to attempt to start it?)
not that I know off unfortunately.
Try Wine, it's an application to run windows programs on linux system. Since this game is not heavily hardware demanding, it should run fine.
i got you on that just put in this link it has instructions for every command you need to run linux to be able to download it i had that same problem https://beebom.com/how-sideload-android-apps-chromebook/
Because RPGMaker MV is based on NW.js (formerly Node-Webkit) you can download the Linux version of NW.js from https://nwjs.io and copy those files over top of the NW.js files that the game shipped with then run the nw binary.

Thanks for reporting this. I'll look into it.
Hey, really like the game, was wondering if I'll be able to carry over my saves to the next version whenever it's updated?
Sorry, for the inconvenience, but because of developmental complications, importing older saves has never been possible for my game. Doing so leads to unforeseeable errors at multiple points in the game, because various aspects are adjusted under the hood. To circumvent this issue somewhat, I include multiple save files at varying points of progression to help returning players get back up to speed.
For specific save data tweaking, my patrons have access to a developer room, which contains skips to specific chapters, access to nearly all items in the game, level and gold modification, and more.
Ah I see, totally understandable, was just wondering!
I'm afraid that you will always get these sorts of comments, even when the game is fully released. During the release for this next and any future versions, you need to put out a message: "PLEASE DON'T IMPORT OLD SAVE DATA!" so SOME PEOPLE might notice.
it’s in the readme file of the game and posted on a bunch of other places. I can’t force people to read the file though and I don't want to be abrasive about it. At this point, ive just created a catch-all copy/paste response for people asking about save imports.
This game has so much potential transformations the player can become, sadly most of them are bad endings.
非常感谢您的理解。
Glad you are safe and that you can continue. Don't worry about the delay, all of us will wait patiently for your creation. Have a nice day
I can't wait for the new release. I am very hyped about it.
But that's just me
i remenber my highest level as a vampire hunter without using a save editor being 32(at that point i got every single weapon and skill even from contracts) -Abyssal28 edit1: it was before chapter 4 ending i made it through everything but i wonder how many new enemies/potential allies mila will have cause i am a bit heart broken after she lost everything at the end of chapter 4 including her friends and family now my question is...will she doom everyone or in the end it will be a soul for a soul(mila dies to defeat amber or faahlda sacrifice herself to power up mila to almost Archangel level?)

After a short dialogue, we will charge at her and the battle will start.
With the angelic gear i will always laugh on my immortal enemies faces when they try to bite me.i am so hyped for this.
What i am about to ask will defenetly be insane but hear me out. The drop rate of the vampire dust should be a guaranteed drop from the vampire enemies.
While I won’t be doing that, there will be something you can find in this update that ups the drop rate. It’ll make any late game grinding much more enjoyable.
Thank you very much, i am very sure the battle with amber will be intense even if we are well prepared.
Hi again, I just wanted to ask if the story has been updated yet. Where I stopped was when that girl (sorry totally forgot her name lol) the angel took us up to the castle in the sky

Okay (thanks for the reply) I will update it on October
I wish you luck on the game to me it's a grand success
Thank you!
I have a small suggestion, if it isn't already done, can you put a teleportation pillar inside the castle, it would be a life saver.
Don’t worry, it’s in lol. At this scale, exploring the place would be a pain without it.
I know, right? The rotten grove is kind of a pain because it's huge, but worth it. I usually got 6, 7 or more ranks from it.
Hey! So, I started playing 5.0.1 on Joiplay this morning and uh... the questlog isn't there? It's like assets are missing or something. Can this be fixed?

Hi still can't play the game via Itch app since 4.1 and don't understand how I can play it otherwise. Any advice?
I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the app.
Can i ask you, when you will be update the vampire route?
I will be working on the vampire route once the update I’m currently working on is released.
Thanks, I've unlocked it now. I have to say that I really liked the end of Bianca's story. Bianca's story was so sad that I'm glad she now has a happy ending. I also liked the last 2 pictures very much, especially the picture PIC 110. Bianca is sooooo cute.
:D
Sorry how do you unlock the PIC 110 and PIC 111 images?
It requires completing Bianca’s final request. You can find more details by reading the walkthrough:
Crimson Veil Walkthrough
sheesh talk about a lot of stuff to go through. i love the combat mechanics and i thoroughly enjoyed both routes. im rubbing my hands together waiting for more of the vampire route
you’ll be eating good in the next update!
How do you open the menu in phone please help?
The android port was not created by me and I don’t have an android device to test it. I believe the person who ported it mention you open it by tapping the screen with two fingers. Hope that helps.
Thanks it works
How do you open the menu in android?
The android port was not created by me and I don’t have an android device to test it. I believe the person who ported it mention you open it by tapping the screen with two fingers. Hope that helps.
I have a question that might be a bit of a spoiler to new players. I think I can phrase it in a way that won't spoil. But is it something I can ask here or is there somewhere else I can ask because I'm very curious about something
You can DM me if you think its too much of a spoiler.
Where can you dm on here?
email me at crimsonveilgame@gmail.com
You've probably answered this or maybe I've even just skimmed over it. But how do you open the solid gold chests? I've found so many of them, Rank 15 at the moment. Am I missing something or am I not able to open them yet?
You need the “Skeketon Lexicon”. You get it during chapter 4.
Ohhhhh okay thank you so much
It's a really good game I got one of the older versions to download on my Chromebook and For some reason I can't get this one to start I can download it But it just keeps giving me the same Turn on iOS developer mode Which I have on to lunch the game So I'm kind of stuck
I'm going to mess around And see if I can fix it If not I don't know Cuz I do want to play it.
Okay I actually fixed it I have to go through the terminal and run some commands But now I can play the game.
Im not familiar with Chromebooks, but I’m glad you were able to resolve your issue. Hope you have fun!
what commands did you use? might i ask?
Found the game. Played through both normal and vampire routes in two sittings. Loved it. Bianca best girl.
Now go and tell everyone you know. Do it!
This game is super impressive. I completed everything on normal route and the vampire route and I can't wait for more. It took at least 5 or 6 tries, but I did manage to beat Dorian before ending chapter 4.
It's also impressive how many bad endings you implemented. You added extra content to many of them which you didn't have to do. Much more effort than I expected when if first downloaded the game.
Thank you! I’m happy to hear you’ve enjoyed your time with the game. Congrats on beating Dorian early! That’s commendable!
Also i forgot to mention, in case someone didnt manage to play the latest version yet, here is a tip. Equip the crystal plate when you go in chapter 5, i won't spoil too much, keep a certain amount of surprise.
So, back again and so sorry to bring up the same problem. You were right the last time I did save within files 1-5, which are used for your save starts to help players reach where they used to be.

Alternatively, my patrons have access to a developer room with cheats and skips to get you even closer to the point you were before without any compatibility issues.
So what wound up happening to my other save files, because the game didn't update last night?
i’m not sure what could have happened to them. I just know that rpg maker doesnt like older save files and acts weird when you try to add them in.
Thank you for the reply, I think now it might be my WinRAR to open the games. I tried with a completely different game last night and the same thing happened. I've never had this issue with games before, but now I have it with two.
Hey so I was playing the 5.0.1 windows release. It's an amazing game and I was very happy to play it. But I have a question about the save games.

Okay cool, thank you! And yeah I saved in the top few files.
Thank you for the reply, and this is a really fun game!
I managed to play the latest version. It's so good man, this game is a growing masterpiece, i ABSOLUTLY love it. Also nice job on reworking Dorian, the battle doesn't take forever to finish, and i had to struggle for a bit. Not impossible to defeat, but not too easy to kill. Keep up the good work, i look forward to the next versions.
Thanks so much! I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the latest content. These updates take months of work for me to prepare, but it’s all worth it to hear comments like yours!
And i thank you for your dedication. Thank you for creating and constantly improving this game.
I REALLY hope that Mila is able to fully romance a few possible girls since that Jessica ending just REALLY lit up my Yuri-feels so damn well... <3
And for the second one you need the skeleton lexicon and go to the crescent village. It's inside the golden chest.
Also idk who said it but i managed to find the 2 moonstones in the game, the first one is available after you take the 3 dark orbs from Ashe then go to Rinaldo's study which is found underneath the throne, then keep walking forward and go collect everything you can. The moonstone is inside a pot.
So it's possible to reach chapter 5? But how, i thought defeating amber will unlock that
Well I have to say THIS GAME IS THE BEST. Thanks very much for making this game
This game is my first 18+ game and its the only game for now that's got me super immense in the story some other games had really short story, missions and areas which was really annoying and killed my love for rpg maker games in the past but I got to say you really really really impressed me with the lots of areas enemies and lots of dialogue you put into it and some other works you put in it must have taken you alot of time and energy to make this
I don't really like leaving reviews but I just had to because of the wonderful experience it took me a week and a half to finish 😅 since I was a bit busy and since this is my first review in my first 18+ game i just to tell you THANKS ALOT I WILL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO FUTURE UPDATES 😁😁
P.S that ancient vampire dorian boss fight was super difficult I had to grind for vampire materials and gold to defeat which was great touch to the game It gives players fight enemies we use to avoid in other to level up more to see if we could defeat I lost to him every chapter till I got to the end 😅
And also could you add a theatre mode so that we could watch all the sex scenes instead of loading saves it will really help trust me
Okay that's all I have to say sorry if this long review takes your time
Thank you for playing through the game! i’m really glad to hear that you enjoyed playing it!
As for the theater mode, I hear you! It’s been a long requested feature that will be added into the game eventually!
Keep checking back here for further progress!
Loving the game so far but in chapter 4 I can't access the wastelands no matter what I do. Something about a missing map or what-ever
You will encounter that error if you are using a save file created in an earlier version where those assets didnt exist. Please use the included save files for proper compatibility.
No no here's the thing I started a new game and I am on the latest version
Can I email you the save so you can do something about it?
You can send it to crimsonveilgame@gmail.com
Hey mkru, loving the game. I also had a question as well. I like to create small dnd modules and this seems really fun? Mind if I ask you for some help. Not asking for anything money wise either. I just love to create stuff.
What do you need help with?
Really just a list of skills and abilities that are in the game. Just so I can attempt to translate.
For enemies also so can do a monster manual.
Shoot me an email with further details and we can discuss it there.

Man, you weren't dickering when you said Dorian will be harder to beat.
My first attempt was as soon as his fight became available. It was more of accessing how strong he is than actually trying to win. Eyes were widened when I was OTK'd with two NORMAL attacks.
My 2nd was before entering Fallhault Castle while decked out with diamond gear. It went well, but I quickly realize that couldn't juggle between healing myself and attacking.
My 3rd (and currently last) attempt was the one I thought I could actually win. Just before the abandoned hospital, Lv 25, Magna Flash, all contracts completed and all perm' stat buffs I could find at the time. I was doing really well and right when I thought I was about to beat Dorian...
phase 2 happened!
Now I am really accessing if I can really beat Dorian before Chapter 5
The quest is HR 50, so you really have to prepare if you want to beat it before chapter 5.
