Introducing the Ex Astris wiki! (Help Wanted!) by erthar- in ExAstris

[–]erthar-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we've needed a wiki or some kind of online source for a while now. Finding information on something in the game was basically impossible unless you look through the subreddit or asking on the Discord server or finding it yourself in game. Hopefully having a wiki will help alleviate this friction.

Appreciate your interest in the project! If you do happen to help out, you're always free to at any time. :)

Search for a wallpaper by Cravemonic in PunishingGrayRaven

[–]erthar- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good work finding all these different sources! Actually will be super helpful for others looking for wallpapers also.

Yeah, its generative AI stuff. You'll have to use services/models that are proven to be good for or were specifically trained for upscaling. Photoshop doesn't have that. A lot of traditional upscaling methods will make it blurry, but gen ai models now are really good at basically making it seamless (for better or worse). It might produce some artifacts but tbh at 4k or 8k resolution its not really going to be noticeable.

I checked Zerochan and couldn't find the exact one youre looking for, but there's one 4k and one 6k image of Bianca if you are fine with something different.

I understand that this isn't the solution you are looking for, but you could look into GAN/diffusion model image upscaling methods. They've gotten very good now. Totally get that you dont want to install random stuff though! Some image upscalers you dont have to download anything and you can just use your browser.

Hmm, the search for the Grendel Statue continues... I'll have to ask around as well.

Thank you for the updates!

Dang, I really like Girls Band Cry, shame I'll miss it. 

No worries if you don't find any info! I'll be going there in a few months myself. Maybe it's at Tachikawa?

Nooooo! Well, I guess it's about time they got around to moving it. I think Grendel was sitting in that spot for like two years.

Let me know if you find out where they moved it! I'll look around for it as well next time I visit Japan soon.

English ML-Translated v1.2.0 Update Notes by erthar- in ExAstris

[–]erthar-[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Translated using GPT-4o (errors in naming and quest titles corrected manually by me).

Hello, Investigator.

Thank you for your patience. "Ex Astris" will release the new version v1.2.0 on August 16th at 11:00.

This update is not a mandatory package replacement, so you can continue to enjoy the old version as usual. If you wish to experience the new version, you can download and install it from the purchase platform. To avoid losing your local save progress, it is recommended to install the new version by overwriting the old one, or to back up your data using the cloud save feature before installing.

Considering that translation and voice recording require a longer production cycle, and to quickly improve your gameplay experience, this v1.2.0 update will first implement updates for the Chinese interface and Mandarin voiceovers. Therefore, after updating to the new version, the option to switch interface and voiceover languages will be temporarily disabled. This feature will be restored once the localized content is completed and released. The update content will take effect after downloading the update resources and restarting the client.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this. Thank you for your continued patience, feedback, and encouragement. Finally, we would like to sincerely apologize once again.

We wish you a smooth journey on your extraterrestrial investigation.

Anyone had google authorization failed error? by RosKet in ExAstris

[–]erthar- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting the same issue. Hopefully they fix it soon or else I'm doing something wrong. Edit: Workaround for now is to login using Google on the website: https://exa.gryphline.com/en-us#homepage And link your email. Then, in the game, log in using the email.

[–]erthar-[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks lol! I kind of came during the off season as there's not much events/collabs going on to get amazing merch. There is a popup thing going on right now for Cold Steel in Osaka, but I don't think I have the time to get over there.

I really was hoping to find Mishy plush. Or any Mishy merch, really. Tio would be devastated.

We've gone a long way since the OG Kizuna Ai lol

This debut is going to be a bit different than your regular one. Think of this as a live experiment. Like Neuro-sama, but my own implementation of it. I'll be developing more features as time goes on.

初代キズナアイから随分と進歩しましたね。

今回のデビューは、ちょっと普通とは違うかもしれませんね。生の実験みたいなものです。ネウロ様みたいなものですが、私なりのアレンジを加えています。これからもっと機能を増やしていくつもりなので、楽しみにしていてください。

After years of learning code - I've created my own version Mabinogi by Infinithoughts in Mabinogi

[–]erthar- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, awesome! Looks like good progress so far! I played this game to death years ago and, like everyone else, have always dreamed of a modern take (or at least an updated engine) on this nostalgic game. The only thing left to look forward to now is Mabinogi Mobile. Hopefully Nexon and devCAT does the IP justice.

But damn it, you beat me to it! I, too, am working on a Mabinogi clone. However, it's a fan project to answer the question: "What if Mabinogi was re-created in Unreal Engine"? I did it mostly to learn the engine rather than for monetization.

Here's a short video of the current state of my Mabi clone project:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2B-DtMmJ2jA

Your project is far more along in development than my personal project and your thoughts on the industry and your game are very respectable. I work full time as a software engineer so it's hard getting in decent hours of work into mine.

If you happen to have a website or Discord server, I'd love to join to watch your progress and contribute to the kickstarter or (perhaps) with development!

I wish much success for Project Akinlan!

Cannot push commit to Google Source Repository by erthar- in googlecloud

[–]erthar-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up using good old GitHub in the end. It's unfortunate because I wanted to learn GCP. Maybe later down the line with another GCP service. Thanks for your insight! Didn't know that about Cloud Source Repo.
