The dialog for the "lady" in the test map ? Check out TEST.c, the strings are in the middle of some other (yet heavily related) data

ah, okay. Thanks!

I'm pretty much wondering what you're doing with my game right now xD
Oh well, if you're trying to understand its mechanics, expect some fun :D

Side note : Torchicken's avatar has changed yet again. Its clipping seems a bit awkward, to me, though.

I've been out on guard for weeks straight, and haven't had much time to work on it. :P

I'm still attempting to get randomized AS to work, currently rebuilding the RomFS without the changed title screen, let's see if that works.
BTW: I thought that randomized cries were the problem, or randomized overworld models, they weren't.

Holy snap, I've just finished some code that allows my game to dynamically load sprites on a per-map basis.
It used to load all sprites for all maps at once, which wasn't a problem until the number of maps grew up.
So now, when a new map is loaded, the game replaces the old sprites by the new ones using a file that I build using a homebrew program.
That saves a bunch of RAM, actually, and will surely save more as the game is being built.

Cats are awesome. Except when they don't eat their goddamn food and expect me to put more in the bowl.

IT'S RIGHT THERE YOU ORANGE NIMROD.

I'VE SEEN YOU LOOK AT IT AND SNIFF IT AND EAT IT BEFORE.

YOU'RE NOT FOOLING ANYONE.

AND QUIT HOGGING THE BED GODDAMNIT WHY DO YOU NEED TO BE IN THE FUCKING MIDDLE OF IT.

Well, putting fresh CRO's didn't help, because the folder is goddamn partialy read-only! Yaaay! Now I can't put them back to normal!
Aby tips? And no, Windows doesn't allow me to change that.

What kind of place? A bank? A important residence?

Also, I will try deleting all CRO's and restorinh them from a "fresh" dump.
Let's see how that will work out.

I'm hired guard (someone needs extra security, I go for a few weeks, guard the place, and come back), but I can't talk about assignments. Sorry.

Good to know, thanks.
Currently, I'm still trying to get that randomized AS to work. Now it's the time for putting fresh CRO's.
Nope, still now working.

Last week Toughie, the only known remaining Rabbs' fringe-limbed treefrog, died at the Atlanta Botanical Garden.
