Hi, first post! I'm so sorry if this has been asked before. I am not particularly tech smart, so excuse me if I'm very amateur with my understanding of things ^^u

I'm unable to recreate this bug on my own computer, but I keep getting reports about it (screenshot from a beta tester.)

Screenshot of some files in the BGM folder. This isn't the complete list of audio files, but the file it is searching for (静かの風景.ogg) is definitely in the folder.


It happens on the title screen. I was told by some helpful folk on reddit that it's failing to load the BGM due to something about URL encoding. I know it's trying to load the title bgm 静かの風景.ogg, but... well I'd be lying if I said I was completely confident in my understanding of what's going wrong ^^u ... Why does it fail to load, or even display the file name properly?

The game runs perfectly fine on my computer, whose locale is ja-JP (if that has anything to do with it?) I can't get this error to occur on my own windows at all (even when I change my locale), so it's kind of difficult to test and fix it (especially when I don't really understand it that well.)

So... how can I get the audio to load properly on other devices? I heard I can rename the file, but would I have to rename it to exclude Japanese characters as well as rename every other file? Or would it be possible to write some kind of script that ensures UTF-8 for all scripts/files/filepaths/etc.? Sorry if I'm misunderstanding anything, I'm just a dumb silly high schooler who's trying out new things for fun... The most tech stuff I've done was fool around playfully with text to speech development ;-;

I don't know if I'm missing anything else that might be relevant in this post, so here's a screenshot of my plugins:

All help is appreciated! I feel pretty lost, haha...
