Manual Setup

I don't want to use the launcher

Perform the launcher setup steps manually from an Administrator PowerShell window.

1. Download The Game

Create a folder, for example:

C:\Games\Nitto1320

Download the game ZIP:

https://web.archive.org/web/20061006144635if_/http://download.nitto1320.com:80/1320v152S.zip

Extract it, then make sure this file exists:

C:\Games\Nitto1320\1320v152S.exe

Do not rename it.

2. Add The NRPT Rule

Run this in Administrator PowerShell:

Add-DnsClientNrptRule `
  -Namespace ".nitto1320.com" `
  -NameServers "209.145.63.183"

Flush DNS:

Clear-DnsClientCache

Check again:

Resolve-DnsName game.nitto1320.com -Type A

If it now resolves correctly, launch:

1320v152S.exe

3. Hosts File Fallback

Open Notepad as Administrator, then open:

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Add this at the bottom, replacing the IP if needed:

209.145.63.183    game.nitto1320.com
209.145.63.183    www.nitto1320.com
209.145.63.183    nitto1320.com

Save the file, flush DNS again, then verify:

Clear-DnsClientCache
Resolve-DnsName game.nitto1320.com -Type A

4. To Undo Later

Remove the NRPT rule:

Get-DnsClientNrptRule |
  Where-Object { $_.Namespace -contains ".nitto1320.com" } |
  Remove-DnsClientNrptRule -Force

Then remove the hosts file entry and flush DNS:

Clear-DnsClientCache
Troubleshooting

The most common launcher fixes are quick checks around Windows permissions and DNS setup.

The game does not open.+

Make sure Launch 1320.exe is in a folder where Windows allows downloads and file creation, such as your Desktop or Documents folder.

Windows asks for administrator permission.+

Approve it. The launcher only needs this when setting up or fixing the game server address.

The game still cannot connect.+

Restart the launcher and allow the DNS/server fix again when prompted.

How do I increase the resolution?+

Use an upscaling tool like Magpie.

Windows Defender or antivirus blocks the launcher.+

Allow it only if you got the launcher from this website.
