Hey guys, just moved over from PCEngineFX. I've been trying to get the English dub of Ys IV to work but every time I try to use the patch it says it's a 16-bit program and not compatible with my version of Windows. I've tried right-clicking the HL.COM application but there is no compatibility tab to use XP or other Windows compatibility. I'm at a loss here. I've already used the English text patch and it worked fine. Any ideas?

Microsoft dropped compatibility with old 16-bit Windows programs many years ago. IIRC, Windows 7 was the last version that would run Win16 programs, but it might have been further back with Windows XP. If NightWolve can't be bothered to update his patching programs to run on modern machines, then you'll either have to find a pre-patched version, or install WinXP/Win7 in VirtualBox on your Win10 machine.

Do you have the file named PATCHGUI.BAT? in the download?

Well, I finally got it to work. I downloaded the patch from another site and this time it worked. Thanks. Looking forward to playing it again. It was good with the just the translated text but not being able to understand the cinemas hurt the experience a bit.
