Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Though I (surprisingly) think the English voice work is quite good, this will give me an excuse to play this game yet again (for, what, the umpteenth time?). :D

I tried out the LayeredFS patch and there's a small "hitch" or "stutter" when entering certain battles or the Cathedral of Shadows, almost as if the game is waiting to load voice files.

Is this something you experienced/is to be expected? I tried out the patch with both EU and US versions of the .cia. on a N2DSXL.

Thank you for your work.

That's just a problem with LayeredFS in general, it increases loading times. If you don't want loading times you need to repack the rom.

Oh okay, I didn't know about that. Thanks for your work again, this undub is awesome. I'll google ways to repack the cia.

P.S.: I have successfully repacked the CIA with the 1.1 undub. Stutter is indeed gone. Going to play through the game now to check for any issues.

I experienced some severe stutters in the cutscene where the four archangels reveal themselves in the Shene Duque. Is this something that the patch could cause? Or most likely a cia repacking fuckup?

Updated the undub to new version, it's now in LayeredFS format and we've fixed one of the cutscenes that was previously bugged.
Will you upload the Apocalypse Undub in LayeredFS version too?
I would really appreciate it.

Any kind of stutters you might get are either bad rom repackaging (which I'm not supporting whatsoever), or possibly faulty microSD card.

I will but currently busy, check closer towards the end of the month.

What tool did you use to repack/unpack the CIA?

    May just order a 5700g for a nas/emulation set up tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
