As a person who lost 3 familiy members in the past 2 years, I know what you're going through. We're here for you if you need to talk or anything. But I can image that you just need some time way. I did the same thing. Stay strong dude.

interesting to see how you handle version 9. Looking forward to your strats.

if you think she's hard now, just wait until very 9...

The frogfucious hints are about 40% done. Ran into a little family quarrel that slowed me down a bit....

I prefer just clicking on the floating blue orb and getting slaughtered by larxene unknowingly

Don't worry, that's going to happen  A LOT to newcomers.

Sorry for not posting here and for the lack of updates. That stops now.

I am now in the process of editing Frofucious's event to where he gives you a hint on how to find the optional superbosses. The order in which he gives you the hints is the recommended order in which you should fight them. Between life and sleep, and estimate this will take about 2 days, as I have LOT OF FLAGS to make.

of course this might be irrevelant when the game is out, as we could just put a guide right here. Most of them have not changed from version 8..except that now they are all hidden until Smithy is defeated.

Sorry for the late reply. There was once a boss in v.8 that was pretty much like that, but she was too much luck based to the point where auto-life was created. There will e plenty of RNG based fights for you to deal with once hard mode is out.

Liz gives out the 2nd strongest armor to the ally that defeated her..inferior only to the armor you win in the FF Boss rush. Margaret gives out the strongest defensive accessory that anybody can use.

Version 9 is going to greatly change the way this game is played. Much like how the yugioh ban list works, I will have to observe what's OP and being spammed over and, and then I'll make the hard mode with the needed buffs/nerfs.

Also, the decision was made to remove that little punishment from version 8 that I snuck in. It's up to YOU if you want to cross save between difficulties, but be warned that they will be TWO DIFFERENT GAMES, so doing so can be hazardous to your save file.

I'm still checking for text typos now that I can FINALLY fix them without bugs. And I also have to check for certain SPCs due to the new Galaxy Star and Celebi nerfs.

Sorry for the neglection guys. I'm having having major life issues at the moment, and the only time I'm active is on Twitch and Youtube.

I know I said that the game would be ready by this month. But after testing the game myself, there was a lot of balacing and cleaning up to do.

The biggest issue was fixing the text, as doing that use to be very hazardous. Thanks to Doomsday, that's no longer an issue.

There's been another major update thanks to doomsday, and you will now be able to use a normal shop with your galaxy coins. I also have to nerf the to OP items to where they can't be spammed over and over, and this is not a 1 step job. But do know that I'm still working on it.

So guys lately my stomach has not been feeling very well. I think I've been lacking sleep. But I'm recovering. I'm planning on streaming Mario for the rest of the week starting tomorrow.

Thanks.  That covers one of four things I noticed.

 

Other bugs are the music bug in the fight with P******, the BH beetle trigger bug (no beetle box), and the black screen bug when dying to Elder Drake.

Yes. Version 8 had hand many memory leaks. All of these are fixed in version 9.

I will be live very soon.

I'm Live right niw.

Hey DK, I haven't been around to see any streams of v9, but I still look forward to it.

Hopefully the strange "DOW" softlock gets fixed as well.  Found it in v8 hard mode and didn't know if anyone knew about it.

How does this happen?

I will stream later today when my video is done rendering.it will be sometime around 8pm-9pm est.

I will Live stream tomorrow at 5 PM eastern.
The first 2 hours will be Star Ocean Last Hope. After that, I will live stream Mario RPG ARM from the beginning to the Mack Raid and Fix any problems on the way. I made a little change and I now need to rebalace all the monsters.

No, it's open to anybody on NG+. I'm still new at using Discord. I mainly just post there. As far as making threads and such, I leave that to the experts.

First, lately in the past 2-3 months, I've done a terrible job at staying active. Not just here, but ALL social media. This includes Youtube, facebook, Twitter, and my e-mails. I have however been VERY active on the discords. For those who don't know, we have a discord dedicated to this hack. 2 things that took up all my time was family needs and my practice of speed running Persona 5.

The beta testing concluded a while back, but I was practing P5 at the moment. With that done, I started cleaning up all the problems found in the testing. Fortunitly most of them are easily fixed. Because my youtube account is how my bills are getting paid, I will focus on that first. But sometime next week, I WILL do a live stream of me playing/testing the game myself, as well as fixing any new problems that appear on the way.

This is my twitch channel. www.twitch.tv/darkkefkaffx

There are currently 2 streamers testing the game:

https://www.twitch.tv/smbai

https://www.twitch.tv/tanukey6807

All discussions will be done on Discord.

I estimate testing will last for about a week or so. Then once we all discuss it, I'll release it to the pulblic.

It would seem that I've made a lot of people upset by not staying in touch.

As I said before, although a lot has happened to me in the past few years, that's no excuse. I did come here a while back, but I seem to have forgotten that account info. I might have 2 accounts here. The one I'm currently using only has 3 IMs.

In any case, I'm officially back, and I want to personally thank Doomsdays for all he's done. Not just with help on the MOD, but with upkeeping the forum.
I'm usually on Facebook, Twitch, and Youtube. I will definitly work on coming here more often as well.

You said you already have a tester in mind. Care to share who it is so we can at least watch when they do the beta test?

I  was going to after he told me when he would do it. I'll put his stream in the first comment.

I wasn't really ignoring messages, I wasn't even coming to the site, but that stops now.

What do you mean with this? As a general reminder, we only host mods in .ips or other patch-type of formats in this site.

Also, about the PMs, that includes us Admins us well. We have been long trying to contact you, not only through this site, with no answer.

As you said, I've been away for some time, And I regret that. I'm not going to sit here and make excuses for me not being here, because there are none. Even with all the crap going on in my life, I still could have dropped by once in a while.

ABout the IPS patching...

In the past I had MANY issues with IPS patching. And even then, it seems I was doing something illegal, and wasn't told until much later. If that's the rules, I'll follow them, so I need to know the proper way of doing this. I cac give you the details in a PM that I'll send you right now.

The purpose of this beta is to chek for balaces,as the mechs have changed so much I don't know if its balanced myself...and I want until others play/see it themselves.

I'm not worried about bug/glitches, as I've beeen working on this version for a while, all those should be gone. The only things left to do outside this beta test is finish one certain musical track, and fix all incorrect text. Fixing text at this point can still cause unusual problems, but I'm working on that. Since this doesnt effect gameplay at all,it can slide for the beta.
