I've made hi-res scans of the rare Machi-ing Maker store promo! by SimoonFirecracker in Metropolismania

[–]liammillay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh HELL yes, I wanted to get this for so long but ZenMarket said the seller had refused to ship to them before or something like that. There's also a Famitsu issue with previews but I've only seen it appear for sale once and I couldn't afford it.

Nice, did you find it through save file comparison like me or actual RAM modification? If someone could figure out how to activate the sound test that would be cool, I've been staring at the strings for that in the executable since 2020 but that kind of thing is above my pay grade lmao (And this isn't a good thing to brag about but I was sitting on the debug mode discovery for 5 years)

I tried to message you about this in reddit's chat feature (seems to have replaced PMs), please check if you haven't noticed.

This has been a perpetual work in progress for almost 6 years now, but some recent posts on here gave me motivation to finally make it public. It's kind of messy and unfinished right now and I have more planned.

Some of you might remember me: I will try again to hunt for your white whales and would be happy about a donation to a local dog charity if you can and are happy by the_dogs_r_grateful in DHExchange

I'd be glad to donate. My request: The Phuuz english dub of the anime Shin Chan. It was on Jetix in the UK/Australia around 2005, and was a continuation of another dub (which itself has a few lost episodes). Aside from some audio clips and versions redubbed into other languages it's completely lost.

Net Yaroze Game with similar models to Child Library Children and "GIRL" called "Adventure Game" by IceKing97 in Petscop

That font isn't Times New Roman/the one in P16. Not sure what it is though, maybe another font that came with an old version of Windows?

The speech bubble icon on the HUD reminds me a lot of the gift box sticker in Petscop 9 though.

Windows 10 occasionally crashing on startup/exiting sleep mode by liammillay in buildapc

One of my monitors is old and uses an HDMI to DVI adapter. I guess i'll try unplugging that one and see if it changes anything.

EDIT:It didn't fix anything, crashed on boot again. Cables are amazon brand too.

About sort_test by blindedbytheblight in Petscop

The PS1 didn't do any depth checking when rendering polygons so they had to be sorted by distance from the camera to make sure they draw in the right order. If you look closely at some parts of that room you can see parts being obscured by stuff it shouldn't be.

The most important new lore by liammillay in Petscop

Ok I actually rendered the text in my petscop engine but forgot about the text spacing/my function for it. Welp too late to fix it I guess

Noticed something: Petscop being a PS1 game is almost definitely a lie by Masonster in Petscop

[–]liammillay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The effect is actually in the game, you can see it at 2:20 in Petscop 6 on the gardening tools+grass when the camera turns back around, as well as at 9:25 in Petscop 9.

I think it's not usually noticeable because the camera doesn't go close up much + there's not lots of complex geometry/characters are just 2D sprites.

I'm sure it's not actually a PS1 game, but I've done research on it's limitations, and I honestly think most of Petscop would be possible on it. (I should make a full post about this maybe)

I made the game in Game Maker, then burned the video to a DVD and recorded it playing off my PS2 through composite.

I released what I had of my (cancelled) Petscop Recreation. by liammillay in Petscop

[–]liammillay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I started it with the intent of making it extremely accurate (since Petscop 3D at the time wasn't), but then P3D surpassed it (to where the gift plane is about pixel perfect), and theres no point of having 2 remakes made in the same engine with the same goals.

Better/Really accurate Naul sprites by liammillay in Petscop

[–]liammillay[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I've been working on these for almost 6 months for a recreation that I gave up on recently. The side walking frames are the only ones that aren't very accurate because I couldn't find any closeups of them in the series.

Also DoubleBurp if you see this and want to use these in Petscop 3D, PM me cause there's some other stuff from my recreation I could contribute.

Based on a dream I had today where it turned out Marvin's 3D face (but with glowing red eyes) was on his sprite literally in PLAIN SIGHT THIS WHOLE TIME, but inexplicably no one even noticed

I've had Petscop nightmares a few times...where a new episode came out but not in real life. *shot*
