Ok, I have been playing the European release of DQ4 and I'm on Chapter 5, Entered Zenithia and spoke to the Dragon King. Now I've completed the Japanese release 4 times already so I know what to expect but after speaking with the Dragon King the hole in the clouds never appears for me to jump through in order to enter Nadiria! I have tried everything so far and nothing seems to trigger the opening of the hole in the clouds. I don't want to jump to conclusions yet but given Square-Enix's Anti-Piracy measures in the past I suspect this may, in fact, be just that. I am using an R4 (v1) with firmware 1.18. Again this is the European release not the North American release but I don't see why it would be different. Any feedback from other R4 users would be greatly appreciated.

If I make any progress I'll report back with the news.


UPDATE: Apparently this is also a problem with the USA release. I am using the EUR save file with the USA version which is interchangeable since the only thing that changed between the two releases was an updated Square-Enix splash screen with an ESRB notice for the USA version.
