    For neatness reasons I would say either "no" or "in another link/dropdown/whatever".

    On mobile and I don't think one should have more than the 3 stacked on top of each other, takes a lil to scroll down.

    But hey, thanks for doing this! This type of reference doesn't exist online as far as I'm aware so it's real neat.

    Pixel hosts the pxtone code online so it might be worth rehosting or linking to on either the Music Tools page or the pxtone Collage page under Pixels' Works. I'm not sure if it's the full pxtone Collage suite or just a basic pxtone library though.

    I think it is the source code for the pxtone dll.
    Thanks for letting me know btw.

    I'm back guys.

    @ColdCallerLoopy: I actually stayed in Hakuba in the Nagano prefecture. Pixel on the other hand lives in the Kyoto prefecture. I had pretty much zero chance of meeting him. Even when I went to Tokyo two years ago the chances were nearly as remote because he doesn't actually live there or anywhere near there.

    Plus you have no idea how fucking huge Tokyo really is. I couldn't see an end to the city from my plane at altitude.

    @Xemous: I have been to Tokyo once and Hakuba twice and I have never observed this.

    @andwhyisit Ah, makes sense, still gotta be cool to be in Japan even for a little bit, and how was Hakuba.

    The current system doesn't allow for specified message notifications, you either have to PM someone or they get the default/nothing

    I rarely even bother because it would just fill up my message box

    Sorry guys. I upgraded php on the server, since we were four major versions behind, and everything went to hell. Hopefully everything is fixed by this point. I thought it was fixed earlier, but it was 2am at the time and I needed to sleep.

    Oh I thought it was only broken at my end because my internet connection messes up all the time. I guess I didn't notice all the profile posts about it.

    It's good to hear that you aren't pushing yourself.
    And don't worry, it can happen, and it at least means something happens every once in a while.

    HACKS ARE AT PLAY! HAAAACKS!
    andwhyisit
    Tfw you discover major game breaking bugs early on in a mod you ported and no-one else noticed them because they never played the port. *sigh*

    Would you mind changing my username to "TheCyberSleuth"? I am completely aware my login username will also be changed. I am a bit sick of "TheVirtualBoy" and want it changed. Thanks.

    Thanks for the name change! ^_^
    andwhyisit
    andwhyisit
    Done. Although I must question the longevity of your choice in name when it is based on a current fad. Please remember that a username needs to be treated as a long term thing.
    FortniteLover2
    FortniteLover2
    I know. I went into a lot of thought about this. I've been thinking about changing my username since 2015. After some thought, I've decided I'd probably still like this name several years from now. I mean, I stuck with "TheVirtualBoy" for 3 years, so even if I don't like this name, I'll keep it anyways because I know (by "know" I mean think) it's better than that. Thanks again for changing it.
    FDeityLink
    Can you change my name to "FDeityLink" (so no underscores)?
    I use my email to login anyway so I'm not worried about the username change.
    Thanks :)

    I'm fishing out my PSP and have remembered just how awesome it was and still is. I might start porting mods again. Anyone interested?

    I heard that if you empty it completely (more so than the psp will allow) using an led (and I mean one of those old school leds they use for battery indicators) and then charge it for 48 hours straight (without taking it off charge during that period) and it should come good. I have no experience with this of course since my battery is fine, I'm just parroting what I've heard.

    I don't have a PSP, but I think you should port Rave Story, it's a classic!

    CaveCon when?

    Sorry man, I hope you don't take this too hard, but a 2 person convention isn't worth 4 to 4.5 hours of driving in a single day.

    Hello - I just stumbled upon this forum today because I was looking for a physical release of the Cave Story sound track. I LOVE this game. I was then directed to you bc you put out the vinyl edition, and I am curious if that is still available at all? Was there ever a cassette release? That would be very cool. Thank you! Ely
    andwhyisit
    andwhyisit
    It is still available. Hold on, I'll send you a PM.

    I have two leftover copies of the CS soundtrack vinyl because Kaze377 hasn't replied to any of my messages for the last month or so. Anyone want one?

    how many copies total did you order?
    andwhyisit
    andwhyisit
    @BLink: Eight.

    I ordered 6 for everyone involved (including myself) and 2 as a buffer in case someone wanted one at the last minute. That did actually happen with rixis19 wanting to get one after the order was made, so only 1 was leftover by that point.

    But Kaze377 stopped coming to the forums two weeks before the vinyls arrived. I tried by PM, VM, email, even by messaging him on his soundcloud. For a month I got nothing. Then I noticed activity on his soundcloud account since I sent the message, and still no reply. I don't think I've done anything to offend him so I'm not sure why he would do this. Then again maybe its not deliberate and my messages simply got lost in the mail multiple times? To be honest I don't understand the circumstances behind it and I've stopped trying to. The last message I sent pretty much stated that his vinyl would go to the next guy. I have yet to receive a reply to that one either.

    And then there were 2 again.

    I just wasted a day-and-a-half trying (and succeeding) to make the tribute site work properly with an ancient browser called Amaya just for the stupid reason that happens to share the same name as Pixel. I've been experimenting with making this work for years and finally figured out how to do it. #lifegoals

    What part of Australia are you from?

    thats a very broad question and i dont see why it's relevant to anything
    i know im not andwhy and the question wasn't directed towards me but you cant just ask people where they're from
    plus it's kinda creepy no offense

    @zxin: Queensland.

    @Spirit: I asked for his full address for the vinyl mailout, so it seems fair. Plus he's just after something general such as what state I live in. Australia is a federation after all. Given that Queensland houses 4.7 million people I'm not all that concerned. Plus I have made the state I live in public knowledge before.

    We should arrange some kind of Cave Story convention. Of course, we'd have to ask Pixel about it.

    Anyone know know the exact conditions for Behemoth (elephant in egg corridor) to go into enraged mode? I thought it was just shooting him twice in a row, but that only seems to be working half of the time.
    Noxid
    Noxid
    specifically, Behemoth has 3 states - walk, flinch, and enraged. In state 0, on each frame it checks for the damageNumberTimer, and if it's non-zero it enters state 1. It then waits for 40 frames and checks again if its damageNumberTimer is non-zero, and if so it enters enraged mode.

    When you shoot an NPC this timer is set to 16 and decreases once per frame. When it hits zero, a damage number is created from the sum of all damage dealt in that time period. Shooting the enemy again resets this timer, i'm *pretty* sure.
    So, in order to enrage it, you need to hit it once, then hit it once again within the last 16 frames of its flinch state. Or if you prefer, anywhere from 25 to 40 frames after the first hit.
