sxi av a GetSystemDefaultUILanguage mov eax,411 ret g2. Click next-next-..finish. Update: Batch file for lazy ones. Copy Motion Editor directory to the local disk, place this file inside and run it. Additional software: Rolly needs SonicStage in addition for Motion Editor. Fortunately for all non-Japanese speakers out there, there is an English version of that here. PS. You may also want to install 'support for East Asian languages' in Control Panel/Regional & Language Settings to prevent Japanese characters looking like boxes.

Tip of the day: Sony Rolly Motion Editor installation on English OS
Well, It looks like Rolly isn't popular enough here in States, so the only kind of forum posts I found recommended using a Japanese XP in VMware. Which is fine, except I've got no Japanese XP. After changing system locale failed to affect installer's behavior, next idea was to install a MUI. (Un?)fortunately for me and my remaining diskspace, Japanese MUI for x64 Vista SP1 failed to install, and I had to resort to other ideas.
Such as:
Tried to decrypt the setup.inx
and decompile it with SID
And figured that installer wants GetSystemDefaultUILanguage to return 0x411 (Japanese LCID)
Step-by step instructions:
1. Run installer under debugger
ntsd setup.exe
in ntsd console, type:

hi, i have tried it on czech windows with no luck....
when starting motion editor, error appears "Unknown error."(so typical for windows ;)) It's in japanese, but friend translated it:)... Do you know what could be the problem?
just got a Japanese rolly and Ive been trying to get the motion editor to work in american Vista business....however, cant get ur file to work...hopefully I can get more help on the matter....
@alijen: Did you install SonicStage? I have no idea how to troubleshoot the issue aside from trying to reinstall both Sonic Stage and Motion Editor. You could also try installing it on other computer and see if it helps..
@Juan Pablo: Could you provide me with more details on what goes wrong (or leave your contact info)? Batch file should create a log file on the desktop - can you paste it along with your observations on what happens when you run the batch file? Thanks.
same problem as juan pablo, i installed the debugger, ur file doesnt seem to work.

ERROR: Debugging Tools for Windows not installed.
Please go to http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/installx86.mspx to install.
@Terry:
The batch file could not find the file
"c:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows\ntsd.exe"
Make sure the file is there, if not, install Debugging tools (32-bit) from here
http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols/debuggers/dbg_x86_6.9.3.113.msi
to "c:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows"
If you're on a 64-bit OS, you should install 32-bit Debugging Tools to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Debugging Tools for Windows\
If your Windows drive is not C:, then replace C: with your Windowss drive letter.
problem solved i had a (x86) on my folder name.
Thanks to your EXCELLENT blog/knowledge the Rolly a Japanese friend gave me today works on my windows XP laptop.
BUT, no luck with getting the software to install on my other machines which is running under Vista. Sonic Stage installs no worries, and the batch file appears to work (changed the compatibility mode etc), but Motion Editor eventually comes up with "cannot install wrong language" about half way through the process.
Any advise you could give about getting the Rolly software to work on non-Japanese Vista would be greatly appreciated (once again thanks for the XP version).
Bye
Thanks for the help, I was struggling all day with the installer. I installed everything onto a portable hard-drive using an old XP laptop, and everything works fine now on my new Vista one.
could u send the batch file to me donckyu@hotmail.com
@123: Sorry, I've already deleted the local file :-(
You can try using the manual steps though..
Hi. I'm a girl. I had not heard about Windows Debugger until I read your post.
I've head japanese Rolly since last christmas now and I was hoping that by now an english version of motion editor would show up. No such luck that's why i looked at your info.
Problem is that I am clueless. I can open ntsd.exe and I get a black screen with commands on it. Am I supposed to just type in it? Or do something else? Please help. You're my only hope for a working Rolly this Christmas! :)
Thanks a lot
Same problem as Hanna here..
I got the Debugger tool up and running but have no idea how to use it?
Could anyone plz write a step-by-step for dummies ;) on how to add the "motion editor" setup.exe in NTSD and how to write the commands? So I can get some moves into my Rolly ;)
Thanks in advanced!
I have the debugger and run ntsd.exe but then what. Any more detailed info/instructions would be much appreciated. Maybe batch file might be easier for me. How can I get it now you have taken it off? And what would be the detailed instructions? Thanks so much for all your help. Really appreciate it.

Broken link, could you upload the file again?
Also the command line parameters are incorrect, i get an error that "'sxi' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
Also, after installation, how can you use it without a proper language file? I use v1.0 that comes with mine.
Loaded dbghelp extension DLL
The call to LoadLibrary(ext) failed with error 2.
Please check your debugger configuration and/or network access

I know how to prevent Japanese, Chinese, Korean characters looking like boxes. Anyway, thanks for sharing! With the proper assistance of our term paper writing service, your academic life can be much simplified!
