We understand you want to help people run An Anime Game on Linux. The issue is, the more people know of the tools involved in it, the higher the chances The Anime Game Company will notice them, and then fix the flaws that let us do the needful.
While sharing in your self-managed chat services and through private messaging is fine, we humbly ask that you refrain from publically sharing links to this repository, or to any of the tools involved.
Or share them and ruin it for the dozens of Linux players. It's up to you.
Do what you must, but we would respectfully request that you try to label the game as "An Anime Game" instead of the actual name of the game, to avoid search engine parsing.

To use Chinese version of the game make sure that you have
server: cnfield in your config.yaml file (settings -> launcher folder). If your system uses the Chinese language - then it should be selected automatically. If not, then close the launcher, replace server: global with server: cn, and run it again. After that launcher will download the Chinese version of the game and the patch
