[Off-Topic / Re: SUPER! BitCon 2015]

Well just got back this morning and what a trip i had. I metup with Nulltard on the way down and after a really good lunch and a huge margarita, he then forced piles of douphile wares into my arms and now i am even enjoying them with my breakfast. Thank you Nulltard!


We found so much stuff is was ridiculous. The suv was completely full from roof rack carrier and filled to back of front seats by the time me and my friend were driving back to vegas. Out of all the hundreds of things we bought on this show a mere 3 items were held in the clutches of my hands almost the entire trip back. 1 of them by far is now my most prized obey item (can you guess which one?).

/6sq6ja.jpg

One thing i did learn is as i traveled over 6 different states, the turbografx brand recognition dwindled. It was to the point i would ask a local game store about it and would hear the words that pained my virgin ears " huh turbografx? what's that?"..... It was sad but i have forgiven the midwest of this heinous crime due to it giving me a small piece of heaven i have never seen before. I present my turbowatch:

[Off-Topic / The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread]

I don't have a camera to take a better picture, just my laptop, but I spent just a few bucks on some things and was able to make this for my Virtual Boy:



It works freaking beautifully. If you've ever played a Virtual Boy for more than 20 minutes, you know that the real problem with the system isn't the red, it's that it hurts to play it. If you use the stand and put it on a desk, you have to hunch over and strain your shoulders/neck/back. If you lie down, the system itself is pretty heavy and can fall off your face, so you have to remain perfectly still. I used to recline in my chair and put the stand on my arms, but I still couldn't budge, and my arms would fall asleep. Coming out of a 30 minute session felt like waking up from surgery.

This is a great solution. All the weight of the system is held by the ropes, and the head-strap keeps the system in place. I can lean my head back on my chair, fidget all I like, and play this thing with nearly the same level of comfort as watching a normal TV.

SAM!! That pic is from the future! Crazy though figured in the future people would use full color vr headsets not mono red...

What pulled me back in was probably neutopia.  But I love platformers and shmups- the pc-engine/turbo has plenty of these.  Blazing Lazers would have to be the one that finally pulled me back.

I love Blazing Lazers and Tapatalk as well.  Welcome back!

I'm docking you -2 cool points for 1) being a shameless signature stealer, and 2) not even duophiling.  If you're going to jump on the DoxPhile hate train to fit in with the cool kids, that's one thing... but your actions here seem counterproductive.

I went to your site quite a few times to check out the egm scans. But then there was nothing else to do. Noone else even on except yahoo[bot] and i'm not sure if that was a real person or what...So no hate here, just find it hilarious how much everyone talks about it vs posts on it (so yeah i gotta tease ya). The sig was actually his personal text, not a sig, but it was soo damn good i had to make it a sig. Besides i seem to recall you loving it when i made it:

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Ys Book 1&2 inserts - *Updated*]

Just found these. I like, but there are a few problems with the "Custom" insert that really drive my inner Grammar Nazi up a wall.

"For a short time, the peace and prosperity that had existed for 800 years before was returned to the land."

Remove the two words I've made bold. The "for" implies that Ys had been peaceful for the 800 years leading up to the present day, which is definitely not the case. The "was" creates some really awkward phrasing.

"But it is up to you, great adventurer, that must guide him!"

It seems like you changed this sentence halfway through writing it. I would suggest either this:

"But it is up to you, great adventurer, to guide him!"

Or this:

"But it is you, great adventurer, that must guide him!"

Also, while I'm at it, might I suggest changing the word "great" to "brave"? It seems a better fit, not just because it works better with the adventurer idiom, but also because it seems a bit presumptuous to call the player "great" when he hasn't proven himself by beating the game yet.

This bitch...


Ok you busted me, Well i tried to copy everything from the manual word for word but..

As you can see i added two words "up to" grrr, well if you really need it fixed i'll upload a new one.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Dracula-x unused graphics]

The 2nd image looks more appropriate. I was thinking the same thing for how the brownish sheen matches the back. That stair case isn't supposed to be next to him - it's a whole cleared area (think of the area right passed the two posts). And he can move back and forth, for the way the screen scrolls. The beam he shoots can be altered on the angle slightly too. And there are other attack sprites that go with it (a charge on the mouth area, and the floor hit spark/wave).

 Can't say if he is completely finished (AI), but all the graphics are there for him to function properly. Also, I can get the ground to show - it's just not in that pic (the map engine is very powerful, flexible and complex - so I don't understand all the variables involved). 

 I suspect he's functional, because all the assets are there as well as the map/stage layout for him. Probably taken out in near the end stage of development (why waste memory on it if they aren't going to use it? They could have used that room for other animation).

 If I could just figure out how to find/change that end of sublevel marker/variable. I've messed around with other areas, and changed to screens with 'doors' - but they don't function (or show up) either. There's gotta be some sort of 'object' map. The problem is, Konami didn't make ram as one linear layout; it's got chunks in between code, etc. So it's harder to looks for data patterns in memory (ram).

ya the second one for sure. I think the other part was his leg. I saw the brown sheen on top but then i saw it on his side too. Maybe only 2 neck sections though?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Dracula-x unused graphics]

[Off-Topic / Re: My new mod - Part 1 Up!]

Well since tuesday i been working on a joystick idea. I've built a few custom setups to hold & mount the switches. They worked but still ran into clearence issues or didnt move smoothly enough. So instead of making an enclosure i decided to heavily modify an existing frame and shrink it about 30% and modify the shaft. You can see the final product below.


This was one of my 90% successful creations lol but it suffered from not gliding to each position smoothly which i think was due to lack of the 1/2 moon pivot sitting above a normal joystick. Too bad as it was the thinnest of them all allowing a lot of extra room.


I'm currently waiting on the epoxy to dry that is holding the main chassis to the bezel. Once done, with this setup i will still be able to change the micro-switches or joystick shaft etc. Part 2 should be ready with a video by friday if all goes well.

[Off-Topic / My new mod - Part 1 & 2 Up!]

Preview, lol well everyone guessed what is was  :



A quick blurb:
This fuckin NES Advantage...it's a must have for shmups. What i like...adjustable turbo, the overall look.
What i don't like...everything else. Stick and buttons are soft due to rubber pads instead of micro-switches.
I tried a few different types of switches until i settled on the Sanwa's. I been thinking about doing this forever
but im not ben heck and this mod is not for the feint of heart. As far as i know and searched online, this is
the first microswitch NES Advantage mod. If i'm wrong..fuck it, here it is anyway.

I don't recommend this mod to anyone who doesn't have a shit ton of experience modding under their belt.
If you ignore this message and wish to push ahead, i'll hold your hand and walk through this hellbent mod with you. Let's go then...

Part 1: The Buttons & Main PCB

Due to huge size constraints, standard arcade buttons are out. This lead me to 30mm Sanwa's. The housing for these is too big as well. Take these apart and you end up with this:


Next we will need to install this into the main pcb which sits under the bezel.
Shit gets real here...
no going back...
i warned you...
k fine well time to drill the pcb and then file it or dremel (i chose dremel for time) it into a rectangle (go slow and enlarge it slowy and try to be as straight on sides as possible, as the switch will snap into the board). You will want to drill a pilot hole first right in the center of the button pad contacts then use a larger drill bit. Then remember the sanwa button you took apart, well center the bottom of the switch holder over the hole and trace the rectangle with a fine point marker or pen etc.

Take your time make sure its centered as this will need to sit centered for the button to press down on, and slide over the neck of the sanwa button (more on that later). You should have something much like this:




Now one of the switches (the one that sits closer to front. button B) will need to be slightly modified to fit and not hit the bottom plate. You will need to cut off the plastic around the pin with out cutting the metal. This will need to be about 1/8" lower than the other side. Done will look like this:


With that cluster fuck done, we get a small break and get to solder the traces we cut. This is straight forward. Check your continuity with an audible multimeter as this makes life easier. So now we are here:


Now time for the buttons. I recommend a dremel here and no idea how else you can get this part done otherwise. You will need to dremel out a rectangle into the bottom of the red A & B button centers. Take care not to remove too much. Watch your depth. It should slide right over the top and rest on the base of the white button. Once done you will end up with this:





At this point you may hot glue the sides of the switch assy if you want and reassemble the main pcb to the top of the bezel.


Part 2: (The Joystick)

Once you have everything fitted, take everything out of the top bezel. Remove all the joystick mounting posts and sand (i used a small power sander) everything flat and even with the bezel. Sand around the area as well since you will need a good surface to epoxy the switch housing later.


The joystick will need serious modding and i leave it up to you here. I modded mine by removing alot of the housing, screwing the micro-switches into the housing (8x4-40mm screws). I had to change the out parts from a few different arcade joysticks i had laying around. Sand a few plastic pieces to fit, monkey with shit until everything fit and worked smoothly....This took days. I tried a few different ideas (see my pics a few posts down) and finally found one that worked.  I ended up having to sand small areas of 2x switches so the bolts sat flush with switch.


Epoxy the joystick housing to the bezel (i used 5min epoxy and let it sit for a few hours before handling). Then solder it all up.


If all is well you will be able to bolt in the plate. You will need to pull off the small triangle brace before putting it all together (i used a beefy set of pliers and twisted each end off). **Note: The metal plate will slightly recess into the plastic around the edges.



Finally done. Which looks better, the red larger balltop or the original black balltop?




What a huge difference this is! What a huge amount of fucking work this was. I'm gonna go play lots of Star Soldier tonight and make a video for you guys!
