Main goal of this mod is to provide the proper auditory experience that is deserving of this masterpiece of a game by applying all available orchestral variants of the songs present in the game, as composed by Koichi Sugiyama and performed by the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra.
All necessary steps to obtain musical bliss will be detailed below.
Please follow the guide thoroughly as to avoid compatibility issues and so that your experience in using this mod is as frustration-free as possible.
Installation
After downloading the mod, extract the contents of the archive with the mod to a folder of your own choice, it's compressed in 7z format which can be unpacked using 7zip or WinRAR, though 7zip is recommended for best compatibility to avoid any potential issues.
Now make sure you're using the latest version of the rePatch plugin for Vita.
Then copy the rePatch folder to the root of your memory card (ux0:rePatch/).
The patch is for the US version of the game (PCSE00912) but it will probably also work fine for the EU version (PCSB00981) if you rename the folder inside ux0:rePatch/ from PCSE00912 to PCSB00981.
The only thing left for you at this point is to simply start the game and enjoy it with the Orchestral Overhaul Mod in all its restored glory.
Notes: 3 of the tracks aren't orchestrated and remain synth, however this is simply because those tracks do not have any orchestral recordings available at all, they are the night town themes from the remakes of Dragon Quest III and IV so please do not report those as issues.
