" and run the patches under Japanese Unicode settings to properly install them.[1]

- Copy the
th06e_ST.DAT from the Retexture Patch folder into <path-to-game> .
- Next, chose which preferred hitbox type you prefer from the Retexture Patch (Visible Hitbox or Invisible Hitbox) and copy its
th06e_TL.DAT and th06e_CM.DAT into <path-to-game> .
- Finally, chose your preferred soundpack you wish you use from the Sound folder (Original, Perfect Cherry Blossom, Imperishable Night, or Subterranean Animism), then copy its
th06e_IN.DAT into <path-to-game> .

Issues fixed
Game will not install on Windows 10
The game's installer executable may not work under Windows 10, even with compatibility fixes and running under Japanese Unicode Settings. It can however still be manually installed by simply copying the game folder (th06
) from the CD-ROM to your computer.[4]
Fullscreen issues on Windows 10
Players have reported the game runs at an uncapped and unstable frame-rate on Windows 10 when played on fullscreen mode, even when using game's internal frame-rate cap enabled.[5] Other potential issues include the game not displayed properly on fullscreen (i.e. game window and title bar being visible on fullscreen) and DLL "Entry Point Not Found" errors.
Another option is dgVoodoo, which converts DX8 to directx11, and allows tweaking such as increasing resolution, anti-aliasing, and texture filtering. There is an issue where resolutions higher that 640x480 causes tiling on the background border when combined with any sort of texture filtering.[citation needed]
