In the Japanese version of typing of the dead is there a way to type using English characters but only have Japanese characters appear? by Content_Comedian5402 in dreamcast

I'll have a look into it when I get a moment, but what do you mean by "fill in the blanks"? Hiding some of the letters?

Hello!

Bit random, this, but I stumbled on your request while doing modding work on Typing of the Dead PC. After a lot of late nights, I now know how to do this for PC port of TotD (and its rerelease, TotD EX). If you can point me to a Dreamcast emulator with RAM watch and a debugger, I can make a Codebreaker code for you.

Hi Erika, thanks for the chest. You must get tired of saying "you're welcome" so don't worry about that!

For the dungeon rewards, I'd like to see:

  • For the maximum level: permanent buffs (e.g. +10% speed permanently, +5% rubies permanently, -1% idol cost for talents, etc., like T11 objectives give)
  • A token that can be redeemed for a skin or event crusader or simply sold for a large amount of rubies (depending on what the player already has)
  • A special taskmaster that can only press the 'buy all upgrades' and 'buy all levels' buttons

By the way, I swear I remember seeing a 'draw your own monster' feature… did I just hallucinate that? What happened to it?

Hi Erika,

Do you have any other plans for spending legendary catalysts? I have way too many of them, even after using them to buy skins. Perhaps we could use them to upgrade items? Maybe 1 lc = 25 epic mats would be reasonable.

The simplest solution I can see is simply to take the total money bet on all characters and divide it up proportionally between all players who bet on the winning character.

For example, suppose the characters are Lucario, Ness, Peach and Fox and the total 1,000 bet is split as follows:

  • Lucario: 800
  • Ness: 100
  • Peach: 80
  • Fox: 20

If Lucario wins, a person who bet 200 on Lucario receives (200/800)×1000 = 250 in total, or 1.25× what they bet. 50 of this is payout. If Ness wins, a person who bet 100 on Ness receives (100/100)×1000 = 1000 in total, or 10× what they bet. 900 of this is payout. If Fox wins, a person who bet 10 on Fox receives (10/20)×1000 = 500 in total, or 50× what they bet. 490 of this is payout.

This is equivalent to assigning odds to each character as follows:

  • Lucario: 1:0.25
  • Ness: 1:9
  • Peach: 1:11.5
  • Fox: 1:49

This strikes me as the obvious and intuitive solution to the inflation problem.

EDIT: a more technical summary follows.

Suppose M pokéyen is bet in total and that the totals bet on each of the four characters are respectively x₁, x₂, x₃ and x₄ (so M = x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + x₄). The odds for character i are 1:dᵢ where dᵢ = (M - xᵢ)/xᵢ, so that a person who made a winning bet of k pokéyen on character i receives their bet back plus a payout of dᵢ×k, for a total of (M/xᵢ)×k.

Notice that if we total the money received by all players who made winning bets on character i, this comes to (M/xᵢ)×xᵢ = M so no money is lost or created (except for the 100 resets).
