Version 26: Localisation fix


I discovered that for some people's pc, the French characters in the filenames weren't recognised, and so the files of the game were badly formatted, causing crashes directly at the title scene since its BGM happened to contain a French character.

For that reason, all the files not yet in English have been renamed. Since 90% of the musics are concerned and changing their name would invalidate most of the previous saves, I left all the previous BGMs in this release, so the save compatibility is assured. That's why there is a big difference in size between the two version.

This fix is not the only thing introduced in this version, here are all the changes of version 26:

-Minor bug fixes
-File names in the game have been renamed to avoid including special characters that would be misinterpreted by other locales.
-The quest at the very beginning of the game to guide the player through the academy is now much more explicit in what you have to do, and appears earlier in the game.
-The graphics option now has three options: low, medium and high. Medium disables too violent weather effects, and low also disables light effects; this negatively alters the game experience, so it is strongly recommended to activate it only if your PC is unable to run the game properly.
-The individual student rooms in the Tower of Knowledge are now less ridiculously large.
-Some words that are difficult to read/understand for English speakers have been adapted in the translation.
-The final boss now has an extra animation on the map.
-After losing with a rune blade, Angel now automatically equips herself with her best weapon.
-Provocation now lasts 8 turns, not 5.
-The door achievement is now easier to unlock (28 -> 25)
-The rtp-style water elementals have been replaced by the beautiful spirits created by Guardinthena
