I'm not totally sure I can help, but here are a couple helpful tips
1. Be sure to set your system location to Japan, you will not be able to log in or view any of the text properly unless you do (which is why you see the random characters appearing the way they are there).
2. The server is (as of this posting) going down for weekly maintenance and will be offline for another 3 hours (unless it is extended for whatever reason). I'm not sure if it's impossible to patch with the server offline, but I always have trouble updating before the server is live again. It may be a similar issue of waiting, but this is only my experience, I can't say for sure.
3. There are a couple English-speaking clans on Cerberus server. It has the largest concentration of foreign players (at least of the members of this forum). Pixie server is another option as well. You can see a couple clan threads also on this forum in case anything catches your eye. This is your best chance of connecting with players. In-game you will probably rely on the community menu for clans because using shout/say chats is not very appropriate.
Hope this is helpful in any way! If I can assist any way further, let me know~

From the looks of that screenshot, you're not running the launcher program in japanese locale. That'll end up screwing up the patching due to the garbage characters. You'll need to reinstall and repatch using the installer and patcher under japanese locale. If you're not sure how to use applocale, there are guides on the forum.

Hi Guys! I think it got worse. I use Windows XP and have installed AppLocale and it doesnt run the program. There is the picture. Take a look please.

Have you changed your system location? This can be done under your control panel. Change your location to Japan and it hopefully it should work. '

Like Foxnull pointed out, you need to run the program with the Japanese locale. I'm not entirely sure how that will impact patching and such, but it will allow your system to show actual text instead of the jumbled mess of characters in that error message~ Look at THIS GUIDE for running Applocale on MegaTen. That may help~

Make sure that you are opening it with the locale and try running as administrator. I know Windows 7 and 8 won't work right unless you run it as administrator.

Did you reinstall the game? I'd suggest taking small precautions before doing something as major as a reinstall of your OS. As i've said before, the screenshot looks as if the Japanese launcher is trying to run garbage characters from a corrupt install. Run the installer program for megaten the same way you ran the launcher under locale, and then try the launcher again.

I fixed the problem of language without changing the operating system, but still have the same error.

Hey there, I'm in a bit of a rush at the moment (so I'm not able to look up all kanji), and my Japanese is remedial at best, but I've looked over the error message and it's more or less less saying that the server is unable to find a specific file on your client. I'm not sure if it would be something like mismatch error, most likely not as I don't believe you've been able to patch successfully. It may just be an issue with the localization during patching. I think someone warned about this above. It may be best to reinstall and patch now that your system is set up properly. I'm sorry I can't be of further help on this

I installed 3 times but the problem remains the same. I do not have the client. I surrender, I took 3 days with this. Oh God!!!

Hi Hi!!! This is a new pic. I dont know what to do. Be patient. This time its in japanese which is a step forward, but youre going to have to wait till some of the others see this so they can give their advice. I cant read the Kanji myself but im sure someone else can.
