Why can't I get any of Kemonone Rou's UTAU voicebanks to work?! They didn't work before, but then I had noticed that his wav files had their names all messed up ("é¦éÑ.wav" for example), so I went through and changed most of them back to Hiragana, but the file path for his voicebank in UTAU's Project Configurations stil shows up in red and when I click okay it says "Invalid voice setting" and won't let me use his voicebank in the piano roll. It does this for every single one of his voicebanks, not just multi-pitch ones. I also notced that a readme.txt file was missing, so I made one and typed random letters there just so it had something in it, but still no luck. It's also missing the $read file, could that have something to do with it? What file type is that supposed to be, anyway? My computer always just says they are type "File" but other UTAUloids work just fine, and Rou still won't work even if I give him a $read from another UTAUloid.

I don't understand what the problem is at this point. I've always seemed to have problems like this with UTAU. Also, most notes that have lyrics that are actually in Japanese characters don't display properly on the piano roll, but when I click on them to edit them the characters are shown correctly until I stop editing the lyrics, then they just go back to looking like jibberish. Yet even though that happens, some voicebanks can still sing those notes just fine. Why does UTAU have to be so complicated?! DX
