I was playing PoFV, when I was reminded of a certain comment made about one of my older IN replays - more to the point, that I moved like the AI. I may be good at unfocused dodging, but I'm not insane. I've booted up a Tei vs. Tei AI Lunatic battle. 14 minutes in, first blood was given. If you've played even Easy mode, you know how hard it is to even last three minutes without injury. These two just keep flying in the face of bullets, dodging through literally pixel-perfect holes, and generally haxing through the whole thing. Hell, I don't even think some of those holes they fly through are even three pixels wide. Yet they do it.

More to come when someone actually dies. So, an hour maybe?

EDIT: First kill at 47:20. P2 was pretty lucky, P1 couldn't use her deathbomb special ability.
EDIT2: 22:28; P1 nets the V. Still, P2 lived for nearly nineteen minutes on just the last life.
EDIT3: P2 claims victory at 18:12. Both ended up at last life early, oddly enough.

So, that's a total of 1:28:00 in heated battle (or 88:00). Often I have seen mists of bullets, hails of orbs, and generally shit flying in all directions.

Oh, and MoF Normal 1cc. Yay.

EoSD, you are a cruel mistress. I've been slipping up trying to 1cc this freaking game on Normal. One of these days...

In other news, I've been working on getting the rest of the Touhou games (From 6 - 12). Mountain of Faith is rather difficult, but it's definitely a fun play. Even just trying to play on Easy, I eat up lives and continues. It seems like it has a really steep score bracket for 1-ups. Kanako is haaaard. Probably one of the hardest bosses I've played so far. Her spell cards are just really cheap and cluttered.

I think my favorite characters in MoF is probably ReimuA and ReimuC. I like ReimuA's homing while I'm dodging all over the place and I love ReimuC's huge range (although her boss damage is rather pitiful).
Slain087
PCB, MoF, and SA are ridiculously difficult on Easy (though PCB gives you a small break by making Normal not much harder). I still haven't capped Kanako's second-to-last card, nor Utsuho's second card. Don't play StB unless you can at the very least 1cc one of the other games with default lives - it's about Hard level in difficulty just right out of the gate, and you essentially have to cap at least eighty percent of a level in order to proceed. PoFV, well... It's a nice way to learn how to unfocus dodge, just don't play on Lunatic, especially on Match Mode (see the above post on the Tei vs. Tei battle).

Why can't UFO come out sooner?

Also, the big problem with MoF up is that Continues kick you back to the beginning of the Stage rather than let you try your luck from when you left off (because of that damn game over music, I guess).

In other news, I'm getting better at PCB. Managed to cap Saigyouji Perfect Blossom -Seal-, a card that I have had tremendous trouble with in the past. Still haven't capped Resurrection Butterfly -10% Reflowering-, but I can limit myself to a single bomb.

And one more vid:

I don't know where you can get a dump of them, but I found this one at the Touhou Wiki, under Other Games -> RPG -> 東方人形劇 -> Touhoudex; and from there, you can go and find the one you like (Last Word Yuyuko, in this case).

YellowerYoshi
Can we not start a meaningless argument in the Touhou thread? Really, there's no point in arguing what kind of connection device is better.

In more Touhou related news, I still haven't 1cc'ed EoSD Normal. Stage 4 is the bane of my existence but I'm practicing up on it until I can do it no problem. Practice makes perfect right?

I've also been working on PoFV, I've just been playing easy to unlock all the characters and get Extra. After that I'll actually move up to Normal for real play. So far the characters I've liked best are Yuka and Lyrica. Yuka's spread is great for racking up that points bonus and Lyrica has some good spells and special bullets that can cause some headaches of clutter for the opponent.

I was wondering when this would show up again... (the link in the Shrinemaiden boards is defunct. And I think that was part of the old boards.)

Even considering it's basically Valkyrie Profile in mechanics (seriously, don't tell me Remilia's attack doesn't look like Niebelung Valesti and 0:31 isn't Celestial Star), it's quite an elaborate April Fool's joke.
James
yeh, maybe you guys wont notice because your connection is super...

but connecting through hamachi vs netplay for users with slow/normal connections is really noticeable...

oh yeah, the real th13 gameplay... no joke.

I found a really good one a while ago. It pretty much had a Fire Red ROM, and a whole bunch of patches. (Mainly the Touhoumon and English ones). Works fine for me. Except I forgot where I found it. Though I could email it to you or something if you'd like.
YellowerYoshi
I think I found a good one, it's got the English patch and everything.

Just one question, is there supposed to be any music changes at all? I somehow feel like I read about custom music in the game somewhere but mine is just normal.
Neo@lex
Yeah, pretty much all of the battle music has changed, as well as a few other things. Like I said, the latest versions are on /rs/.

Also:

I'm officially challenging Normal now. For the first time, Easy is now actually starting to seem... easy.

Replay Here.
YellowerYoshi
The version on 4chan doesn't have the cool character sprites like the other version I found has. Sad times.

I also noticed that CMystia has "Peck" instead of "Wing Thrust". Personally Wing Thrust sounds better but oh well...

Anyways, thanks for the link neo@lex. I picked Marisa for my starter and plan to catch a Mystia before I go into Viridian Forest. This is like a completely different game now, it's greatness.

Hmm, let me think. Following games have been beaten on Lunatic as well as their extra stages, phantasm for PCB. EoSD, PCB, IN, IaMP [I still have troubles with going against Alice but meh], SWR [piece of cake], SA, and the demo of UFO. Can't wait for the full verson of UFO to come out so I can beat that too. I still have the most trouble and am trying to beat Shoot the Bullet. So far SA, SWR, and PCB have been my favourites, UFO is really getting up there though.
Neo@lex
YellowerYoshi
Hahaha, you win neo@lex.

On a Touhoumon note (Yeah yeah, everyone else has moved on. I'm late to everything.) I'm extremely pleased that I got a free Level 5 EX Medicine. Sure, the Nameless Fairy makes better evolutions, but having a tank of a Touhoumon so early is a really nice thing. Especially since Touhoumon is such a steep difficulty compared to the original Pokemon game.

Seriously Brock, your CYuugi can go burn for eternity. >=(

This should be what you're looking for JInxyjem. My advice is to not mess with the patches in the folder and just play using the "Touhoumon-15-Eng-Lobsterhime-Touhoudex" file. It has all the cool features except the overworld sprites.

I have the patcher, I have the ROM, but where is the patch? O_O
YellowerYoshi
If you downloaded the pack I linked to, then the patches are in the folder labeled "IPS". But the rom I mentioned should already be patched for you with everything.

So I made my first honest attempt at IN lunatic, since I've been doing really well recently at it. (The game, not lunatic)

Surprisingly, I made it this far:

I've been trying desperately to 1cc EoSD Normal, but to no avail. Stage 4 is the bane of my existence. I lose lives there and then Sakuya finishes me off.

Brilliant.
Slain087
Hopefully you'll find a way to make it past Life Spring Infinity - that's a big bullshit card.

As for EoSD, the difficulty of Stage 4 is entirely dependent on the attack style you're using. ReimuA has the easiest time, with only one real bullshit card. I think MarisaB has the hardest time of it, she has to take down three of them. 'Course, if it's the non-directional laser non-cards, you should move quickly ahead of time to evade the homing bullets that come with them. And like I said before, the knife bullets are round, not rectangular as you might think. Swing a little wider than you normally would to evade them.

I know I'm a bit late to reply, but if you still haven't found a solution to this, I think I have. o: Just load your Touhoumon file on your PSP, and save in the game. (as is start then save, not use the emulator's save state) Then move the ROM to the computer and load the game using the game. Worked for me.
Slain087
Spurred on by Cyclone and Mafiamaster's runthroughs of IN, I decided to go for an Extra Stage clear.

Turned out to be my best run yet - 8 caps, including Hollow Giant "Woo", and almost clearing Hourai Doll as well. Ended with three bombs and one life.

[Replay to come]

OK, so I can clear it with more lives than you, but I can't unlock the final card. :cry:



EDIT: Nevermind, just did a run with exactly 7 captures. Died to the first bullet that came to ey afterwards due to not having seen the spell before. Also miraculously captured "Possesed by Phoenix" to get to 7.
Slain087
Cyclone: How the heck do you [have more lives and less caps]? And you capped Possessed by Phoenix too?

Damnit.

Let's have a contest, see who caps Imperishable Shooting in the least tries.

EDIT: What I have so far for IS:
It's easy to determine where the starbursts occur. Just look for a bullet that overlaps the two next to it. That's the bullet that goes the furthest out.

Dealing with the L-R-L-R-L columns of rings is extremely tough. I've found that I can pass that section semi-reliably by focusing in when the spokes come out, then unfocus move toward the center of the ring. That way, you don't get caught by the spoke above you (though you might run into the spoke you're in).

The 5-ring pair is the toughest part of the card. As far as I can tell, best results are going in left into the spokes. There seems to be enough space there. But you have to be extremely swift, and extremely precise.

After that seems to be a cakewalk, all things considered. The last wave can be defeated by standing on the border of red and blue.

Still haven't caught it yet.


And I just epically failed Forbidden Arcanum "Hourai Elixer" -Hard-.

Slain087
An update on Imperishable Shooting:

Reimu Solo seems to be the best choice for this, since she has the smallest hitbox. I'd go with Border Team, but Yukari can mess things up when Time orbs make it harder to see.

As far as I can tell, only the first wave is static, and the space between bullets is just enough for Border to slide through the gap. A single tap to the right followed by grabbing the bottom is enough to dodge right through as the ring expands.

The rings also burst in a spiral, rather than straight out - gives more space, but harder to predict effectively.

Waves three and four open in the same manner every time, but the burst points are always different.

Oh, and the points I noted earlier (that the overlap bullet is the burst point) is false. It's usually the bullet next to it that goes out all the way.

The bullets seem to accelerate as they reach the furthest point, so clipdeaths are common.

The second wave of five requires movement in the opposite direction from the first wave of five.

That's the furthest I've gotten so far, in <100 tries.



Also, damn you Hourai Elixer -Hard-.

Also, reply number 666 (pasonia got post 666)!
YellowerYoshi
I'm not sure if this is good or not but I randomly decided to try EoSD Hard. I actually made it to Remilia before I used up my last continue. It wasn't quite as bad as I would have imagined but I used a ton of bombs and lives on some rather wtf spellcards.

Is this counted as a milestone? When I first started playing I could only get to Stage 5 on Normal with all my continues.

I swear I'll 1cc Normal one day...

Hmmm, the 5 at a time was kinda tricky...

Arrrrrgh! So freaking close!

Another day, another 1cc Normal EoSD attempt. I made it to Stage 4 with 8 lives and only ended up blowing 2. Then when I get to stage 5 I start to royally screw up in my awful Murphy's Law luck.

I made it about halfway through Remilia before I crashed and burned.

SO CLOSE I COULD TASTE IT.

EDIT: And the day has finally come. I HAVE DONE IT! I have 1cc'ed EoSD Normal! I'm so happy I can dance right now. It makes me look back at they day that I got a game over on Easy Stage 3 and smile at how far I've come since I got introduced into Touhou. I think this is a great milestone.

it looks like Tasofro is releasing some kind of SWR expansion or possibly a new Fighter altogether (the latter i doubt)
only a screenshot is shown atm, with a new HUD design, a new Arena, and a new type of weather
it also says something about comiket 76, so i assume it is released/demoed then (August 15th)

Judge for yourself

they haven't released any other info that i can find. my hopes go with a new playable character(s)

Just started playing about a week ago and I'm pretty terrible. Of course it's probably because the IN game I downloaded came with almost everything unlocked already and I pretty much just skipped straight to Mokou spell card practice.
