I've opened a ko-fi page for those who want to support my work. I will keep providing free updates, nothing I do for Dark Souls II is ever going to be locked behind a paywall. It's just for those who want to support me :3

That sounds like fun. Tomorrow I will do it. If it comes out too hard I will also tell what the colors mean

Dark Souls 2 mentally illness test: this is Forest of Fallen Giant, name which part of the map is which by only looking at the navigation mesh. If you can do it, I will come with you to the psychologist (I need it too)

No, it’s identical. As far as I can tell at least.

Radai @lordradai.bsky.social · 23d

Very fun and useless fact:
There are two types of poison spitting statues. They have different IDs and different collisions, but they both do the same thing.

Progress on my DS2 mod is looking pretty good, don't want to think about dates, but hopefully by October it should be ready.

Manged to load both debug fonts from the JP NT

Radai @lordradai.bsky.social · 25d

The DS2 JP NT build has the debug font in it. I just endian swapped it and ported it over to Scholar

Radai @lordradai.bsky.social · 25d

Dark Souls 2 with GeDoSaTo truly was something else. I miss the old days

I have uploaded a gameplay footage of the early PC build of DS2 on YouTube. Here it is, in case you're curious to see it.

No, it’s not a debug build. It’s stripped of debug features like the scholar release version. The main thing here is it being able to load engine settings with the launch argument —DLsysprop and it not having Arxan

Radai @lordradai.bsky.social · 28d

Yesterday SteamDB exposed an early release version of PC Dark Souls 2, internally called Stable_10_0_FRPG2_Title.
This release is dated March 8th 2014, which is one week before the PS3 title release and one month and a half before the PC.
It does not have arxan, and can load engine config files.

And another piece of my soul goes away after playing Life is Strange. Highly recommend anybody who hasn’t played it to do so, one of the best games I’ve ever seen.

Kinda. I figure it out, it’s UXM changing paths to fixed lenght padding. @tkgp.bsky.social told me on Discord about it

It’s easy to make a throwing weapon. The problem is the animation for it, somebody needs to make it and I need to actually finish the animation program for this game

Radai @lordradai.bsky.social · Sep 8

It would actually be sick to have a throw animation that’s basically this but without the player flying

I hope it wasn’t intentional. I accidentally deadnamed a non binary friend once but it never happened again, and I apologised immediately
