    1. No since the original lines do not have inverted commas, you just replace the lines without the inverted commas.

  1. Method 1 had worked for me for a while. It happened again later so I tried Method 2 and it fixed it, but if I set the framerate to 60, the game lags when there’s enemies. It’s weird because it always runs at 60fps even if I have it on “Variable”, but if I set it to 60, it goes in slow motion when battling.
