  • What 90s/00s websites were you fond of, just like my NeoCities page?

    I completely forgot to respond to this, sorry!

    So many websites had old layouts that were great until they were replaced with uglier ones.
    DeviantART immediately comes to my mind. The layout it used was just perfect, and then Eclipse came and destroyed it.

    Do you like GBAtemp?
    It seems to me the site is unpleasant for you with all that stuff you criticize with passion.

    But hats off: You have the talent to create threads in the Site Discussions forum that get many views and many replies.

    Try to enjoy the forum, the discussions and whatever and don't focus too much on things you dislike.

    Finding sponsors, taking care of ads yourself is hard: Ad networks came to existence. Criminals are abusing them (scam, malvertising). Costello stated at some point that their ad network is a good one; can't judge this. Neither the GBAtemp admins nor the ad network have interest in scams showing up. This harms reputation. Nothing we can do but report bad ads and wait for human interaction stopping fraudulent stuff.

    Unfortunately advertising is THE most common method to fund things online. Most people aren't willing to pay for […] if they can get it for "free" (paying with bandwidth, compute power, own time, personal data and nerves… or even buying some products isn't free).

    Just look at the number of active members here compared to those with patron status. The admins can’t pay the bills without relying on ads.

    In my opinion the only thing we can do to get rid of this once and for all is accepting that services have a price in a money-centric world – and start paying for things we like directly instead of indirectly (ads).

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    good night
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    as to you
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How do you know if the night will be good when you're asleep
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    because i didn't say i was asleep
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    i said i was sleeping...
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    sleeping with uremum
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Even my mum slept on that uremum
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
