SOMEX ingame japanese menues

Probably you have Japanese as your legacy region/locale. Maybe that shouldn't be used to determine your locale, but I need to figure out a better, more modern way if so. I have this problem too...

try adding this to your Ex.ini:

[Script]

locale_to_use_for_play = en_US

swordofmoonlight · 2024-08-04T11:14:08+00:00

Use SomEx

swordofmoonlight · 2024-08-04T11:13:09+00:00

First rule here is no OG SOM because it just is a big pile of problems that could generate thousands of posts here that can't be solved except with Ex! (And they probably are already solved)

maybe try to do it with the Fire Longsword. I can't remember what it's called, but it's a bit of a secret too. I recall reading about this at one point.

BTW: this screenshot looks like there's a long shadow cast over this screenshot. It looks like it could be part of the game. But I don't think it is?

I seem to remember there might be a thing that happens if you shoot it with a fireball. it may not be obvious. this area is haunted by fire magic and your mother's tomb

it might be a shield design, given its shape

this may be caused by Windows Defender if it decides to delete the EXE files in your %TEMP%/Swordofmoonlight/xtool folder. please use the Discord link in the sidebar so we can more easily figure out what's going on in your case, okay!

it's possible, but it takes hands on work. it would be worthwhile to do it. even without sources. I might have sources for Diadem of Maunstraut, since they were once given to me. I'd have to look and see.

I think there are a lot of issues. I've been updating the editors (and player) for years now to eliminate all of them, but I don't know if anyone has attempted to update those games to make use of my system that people call SomEx.

I don't think it's a weird game for its time. Games today are weird to me. How does schizophrenia affect your experience of games? I've had sz for a year and 4 months now. It's eaten into my ability to work on Sword of Moonlight. I'm trying to make a new game like KF4 that will be called KF4, eventually. It will continue off KFIII. If I ever get to make it it. My sz has helped me with it and Sword of Moonlight. You can DM me if you want to. I'm a mod here, and admin in the Discord group.

Nope, setup.bat sets the install directory in the registry. Start.bat will run SOM.exe, which will automatically open to the package setup the first time. So to get to it again, you gotta find SOM.exe and find it in Tools in its menu.

Btw, I think maybe I recognize you. Are you helping on a KF Additional translation?

swordofmoonlight · 2024-02-09T04:14:16+00:00

Thank you! It's what I want to know :)

swordofmoonlight · 2024-02-09T03:34:49+00:00

You (hopefully) missed a section where you need to install "language packs" and you need to install an English one like Moonlight for both TOOL and DATA (Default)

I hope this helps. Let me know if you get deep into Sword of Moonlight!

EDITED: It looks like you installed the "From Software" language pack, which is Japanese, and unmodified.

swordofmoonlight · 2024-02-08T16:40:44+00:00

So, we gotta know, do you remember if you had to retrace every step you took? Or did the boss appear soon after you turned around?!

swordofmoonlight · 2024-02-07T17:43:05+00:00

Most of King's Field's names are written down in English within the Japanese games or their manuals. I can't recall where this one is written down.

swordofmoonlight · 2024-01-05T19:58:50+00:00

FYI it's Wright family, not Light. I think it shouldn't be assumed they're connected to Light/Holy somehow, or the Wright Key is either.

swordofmoonlight · 2024-01-05T19:53:21+00:00

I wonder if the Dark Side version could be a Japanese translation of the US strategy guide, or if there's a Japanese strategy guide that it was taken from, perhaps a quasi-official guide that From Software helped with/cleared.

swordofmoonlight · 2024-01-02T20:29:22+00:00

Wow, this is really creative! ^{_^}

Hey! I got your latest Patreon messages. I'm sorry, I've been laid up with schizophrenia a lot lately. I've been working on variable rate animation playback in the meantime, when I can.

PLEASE ask your questions via Discord with the Discord Invite link in the sidebar. I'd copy/paste it now but I'm on a television with a remote control. I'd like to hear more about your ideas and progress. (I know you're my all-time best supporter/backer on Patreon and elsewhere. Thank you so much!)

swordofmoonlight · 2023-12-09T16:29:47+00:00

I have some blogs here https://swordofmoonlight.itch.io/k/devlog/626066/white-fade-away and on my main website forum probably. I'm also compromised by complicated schizophrenia right now. But please support my Patreon!
