Yakuza 4 Remastered – Solution for the Now Loading Issue

A guide for Linux desktop and Steam Deck users.

How to Solve the Now Loading Issue

Introduction

This guide is intended for players who are modding the game on any Linux device, including the Steam Deck.

Hiroki Narimiya Restoration Patch

Problem

After watching the conclusion of part 2 and the splash screens for chapter 1 of part 3, the game will be stuck forever on a Now Loading screen.

Explanation

The mod was made without taking Linux file system in consideration.

If you have copied and pasted all the files, many of the original files will not be overwritten and will exist with the new ones.

Example

There can be two files named c0100.adx and C0100.adx in the same directory without conflicts. The same applies for folders.

Since this is a Windows game, it will attempt to load a file, like C0100.adx, but will find two files instead of one.

Solution

The solution will require renaming files from the mod to have the correct capitalization to actually overwrite the original files.
