Hey,
I downloaded the XP MUI, which allows you to use a foreign language localized version of XP on top of a default English install. However, when I set up a MUI enable user (just set all the regional stuff to Japanese) 25% or less of the system is actually in Japanese. I do have system file mods installed (flyakites aqua kit), could that have something to do with it?
Anyone have MUI experience, or do I have to just install Japanese XP on a different partition from my English?
Thanks guys!
Konnichiwa! 
I think it's because of your modded sysfiles. You have to restore your original system files (insert WXP cd, boot through it and in setup choose Automated System Recovery) and then get BATCHMOD (it's around here, on A-S) and translate flyakite's sysfiles into Japanese. It's easy to use and very powerful. I think it'll solve your problem.

IS he talking about me......its my ears isnt it, my big ears well children I cant help that
at least he didn't call me an oni (which in jaoanese means demon)
Doumo Pe7er!
One question, though. If I use the BATCHMOD will I still have the English UI settings too or will batchmod Japanese it all?

In slightly more familar romaji should come out to:
Etto,
Nihongo benkyou $hitai ne? Nihongo chou suki desu.
Chotto nemui, gomen ne?
Ja ne
And that should translate to:
Well,
[you] want to study Japanese, no? [unclear subject] really likes Japanese!
I'm a little sleepy, sorry, no?
Bye!
It sounds a little femine with so many "nes" and the use of chou. I'd type it out in hiragana but I have to finish this take hom test, due in an hour ^_^U
:woot: whoops

Batchmod extracts resources from modded files (here: Flyakite's set) and puts them inside your system files. Its purpose is to prevent situations like you have: Japanese Windows XP (by the way, how's 'windows' in Japanese? ) with English dialogs.
Download it and give it a try. Read readme carefully, I bet you will be satisfied. I've already translated Flyakite's set to Polish, it works very good. Full automation. All you have to do is to click on 'yes' when Windows asks you about unrecognized versions of sysfiles (modded ones :naughty:).
Ah, but i don't have the Japanese Windows XP per se - the MUI sets an English install to use both English and Japanese files (or whatever languages the MUI is setup for) - I'm afraid that using batch mod would wax one or the other.
Hmmm....do you remember, before installation of Flyakite's set, were the dialogs English? If they were you have to get Japanese WinXP 
I am pretty sure that Batchmod won't fukk your sysfiles. It replaces only images/icons/avis, does no harm to the code. Find its author and ask him
Well, what the MUI does, exactly is add files that change the entire UI from English to another language by adding the files necessary to your English install. Then, any user on that machine has the option in their regional preferences to say that they want an English UI or Japanese. So my WinXp was originally English but I used the MUI to add the Japanese files and now all the users on the system have an option to change the UI via the Control Panel, on a per user basis.
When I fooled around with it the first time, I installed flyakite's files and then the mui and when set to Japanese the UI was mostly English. Since the worst I could do is mess up some system files, I think I'm going to just do an system recovery on my current install and trying out using batchmod and reinstally the MUI.

Exactly. Recover original sysfiles, mod them and replace. Batchmod is your friend
