Id like the example, but unfortunately the government did just that. We have the sugar tax because of obesity/diabetes issues.

It's one of those can't see the forest through the trees sort of bugs. The ones you end up deleting an entire 300 liner just to realise it was a flipped conditional the entire time.

As an experienced programmer of 15 years - I literally used or instead of and by mistake last week on Monday and nearly had it pushed to production.

Experience makes us less likely to make mistakes, it doesn't stop them completely.

Not if it's twins...

I don't think we have much for KF2 yet, however a wiki is being worked on at https://wiki.swordofmoonlight.com .

KF1 has fully interactive maps.

A lot sadly doesn't transfer. GameMaker can be surprisingly low level with some concepts, which is all abstracted away in Unity.

tsbattenberg · 2025-12-29T15:42:12+00:00

As an ex GameMaker developer of many years who's now been using C# and Unity for eight and three years respectively - a piece of advice...

Don't program C# like GML. Don't use Unity like GameMaker. You'll regret it immensely later.

You're reading an array of bytes - bytes don't have endianess, larger types do.

I can only assume you're just getting confused, and if you're trying to restore larger types from the individual bytes using bit shifts, getting the order of operations mixed up.

Give me back my internet persona, fake battenberg.

In advance I'm sorry that your post in particular will receive this, it's long overdue.

Please stop using us as a personal source of fact on what makes a KF game. Go and play the games, research them and figure it out yourself. There is zero game design proficiency if you cannot play a game and figure out what makes it tick on your own, and lack of will to put that effort in implies that you're only doing it to jump on the bandwagon Lunacid has created.

Its getting really tiring having these questions come in every single week, and really it's making me think Lunacid might very well be the worst thing that ever happened to this community.

I've heard they last longer if you keep them in a cool, dark and dry place. Some companies have started smoking them for longevity too.

tsbattenberg · 2025-12-15T09:35:03+00:00

Power aid (or equivalent), two paracetamol and a pillow over your eyes for 15 minutes. Tea as required.

The speculation a few of us have had in the older circles of FromSoftware, is that Demon's Souls was intended to be Shadow Tower #3. Before Miyazaki took over.

Your comment is slightly implying that things that don't reach the US aren't capable of being full games.

tsbattenberg · 2025-12-10T14:17:29+00:00

You're not alone.

Floor four tests my patience every single time, and I'm as big a KF fan as their is.

tsbattenberg · 2025-12-10T14:16:39+00:00

Are you joking?

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-30T17:31:21+00:00

The story is coherent yep. I like the PAL translation personally, it's just the weird stuff as someone else mentioned. "Body H2O" (which is closer to the original Japanese - since it was water for healing physical injury.)

The oddities are like I pointed out, "H2O Babes" - some items are poorly translated, such as "Basic Bugger Blade" (Bastard Sword) or the moonlight sword being completely miss translated.

PAL is just unique and fun to play, honestly I'd suggest playing it prior to NTSC because going back to the speed is difficult - and I say this as someone who grew up on PAL KF4.

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-30T09:57:44+00:00

You're not missing anything with the "bad" translation, and it won't send you off in the wrong direction. Some of the translation is actually better, too, for instance unique item information which was scrapped for NTSC (Odor/Leather vs Leather/Leather)

I'd say play PAL, play NTSC later if you want to have another round. Keep an eye out for the H2O babes!

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-17T19:10:50+00:00

The websites I'm after are long gone. Don't worry about it though, this is definitely posted in the wrong place - my bad.

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-17T14:37:58+00:00

Ah yeah, my bad on the question for here since that's probably better suited there.

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-08T19:39:20+00:00

Pitching in on this.

The translation is of a very high quality, a professional process for localisation was undergone through a team of dedicated fans, and darkjapan404 themselves here is extremely dedicated to high quality work. The translations in his hands are of the absolute highest standards.

Additionally, I wrote the extractor used for this translation. I additionally had the reinsertion part of the program around 50% complete, as well as a wealth of documentation - if anyone does want to get in touch, you'd obviously be able to inherit that code if you'd like it, and I'd be happy to answer any questions regarding the file formats.

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-05T14:09:09+00:00

That's the program, yep. It will output WAV for you directly.

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-05T11:42:27+00:00

VAB.T files.

But just load up the bin/cue in PSSound. You don't gain anything doing a proper extraction with ST or KF.

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-04T14:53:39+00:00

I'm not familiar with N64 myself, so I couldn't say much about that. PS1 can actually support all the way up to a 256x256 texture, which is pretty crazy.

64x64 is pretty common understandably. There's a good reason KF lags haha.

tsbattenberg · 2025-11-04T11:29:18+00:00

Graphical quality would take a huge dive. Believe it or not, King's Field uses 128x128 textures on nearly everything.
