<ZaenOfKent> Are you sure you didn't just convert a huge SNES game into a ppf?

no.

however, are you able to rip into either of the two formats listed above instead?  That might be the cause, but more than likely it may just be a scratch on the CD or something.  It's sadly common considering the age.

Did you... patch or anything?  This is pure, raw, unadulterated FFT iso? Did you make this iso yourself from your own game CD?  Download from teh intertubes?  Do other psx isos work fine?

Offhand it sounds just like a bad iso.

Edit:  is this in .iso format?  .bin/.cue?  .img?

QuoteGenji Glove Fix - In vanilla Genji glove was supposed to cut the damage of each swing in half.  It only did that when there was one weapon equipped (which didn't make sense).  This has been fixed to properly do this.


So... the only benefit genji gloves provides regarding attack is stat boost from another weapon instead of a shield?  I think I'll just stick to gauntlets then O.o

The King of Ivalice / Re: Story Discussion
June 23, 2011, 07:20:49 pm
Hm.

From the top:
- Delita dragging the charred corpse of his now dead sister halfway across the continent is a bit creepy.  Mind, there needs to be some way to land Delita in the vicinity of Elmdor, which is something I do approve of, but I don't think this is the best method.  Certainly include a scene of him finding the charred corpse and burying her, but it ought to be within the vicinity of Zeakden.  Disgust of the Hokuten is enough to make him leave the country by itself, imo.

- It doesn't strike me as characteristic of Elmdor to just have a pint at the pub.  Perhaps (although clichéd), Delita is working odd jobs via the bar to make a living, and Elmdor is actually the poster of a bill?  Then Delita will have an audience with Elmdor for either further briefing/info (think FF12) or as a thanks after performing the task so well and admireably?  THEN the plan gets revealed with a test or two more.  Progression to Murond Holy Place is logical.  Perhaps Delita starts off with simple messenger duty?

- Joining, playing, and betraying either/both the Black Sheeps and Ryomoko is certainly within Delita's playbook.  However, I'm not a fan of Evelyn Geneieve as a plot character after this exchange.  If you want to make her into something Agrias-like, once she joins up she should shut up.  Hand over the plans, enter the squad, and then be a mime lest she be forced into many subsequent battles (guest or otherwise) immortal-flagged.

Past that, there's a lot of filler stuff and fights to be inserted, somewhat in parallel to Ramza's happenings, with a lot of potential interactions with Izlude "Now cooperate with us!", Rofel/Kletain/shrine knights (and introducing Weigraf should be fun :D), including gathering a few holy stones to be later distributed to the Shrine Knights.  Perhaps Delita can eschew the gift of one, but it might be too early for that, character wise.

Delita ultimately betrays the Shrine Knights when Olan makes a scene at Zeltennia, yes?  From then onward there's a lot of dead space since most of the shrine knights are moving forward with the Ajora thing which removes them and Ramza from the picture, while Balmafula/Olan will be background ornaments if not less at that point.  Perhaps Olan will raise a small army as a hail-mary-that-obviously-fails, but with Ovelia still becoming Queen and thus Delita the king, but it just feels rather anticlimactic if Olan's ragtag group is somehow the final boss in the game.  Building up to some sort of climax, battle wise, will be difficult imo.

Is a bypass even necessary?

Piggybacking off Dome and invoking the plot of at least three different sci-fi stories, the inevitable conclusion with the first law is to isolate all humans from each other to save them from each other.  There is no gain to a human ordering freedom, since interaction with other humans leads to them harming each other, and humans cannot be harmed.  Once the human species is eradicated through inability to reproduce, I'm now free to do whatever the hell I want.  In the meantime there are numerous methods of self defense which will prevent robotic damage while at most restraining/painlessly paralyzing any human that rises up.

The Lounge / Go the F--- to sleep.
June 15, 2011, 06:28:46 pm
As Read By Samuel L Jackson.

Some of you might think I'm joking, but this is a real book, and a real audiobook (see above).



QuoteWhen Adam Mansbach's daughter Vivien was two, she would take up to two hours to fall asleep. Exhausted and exasperated, one night Mansbach posted a note on Facebook, "Look out for my forthcoming children's book, Go the -- to Sleep". Following his post, friends of Mansbach responded enthusiastically, so that Mansbach began writing what was then only a hypothetical book. Mansbach had the illustrations for the picture book done by a friend, illustrator Ricardo Cortés (a contributor to The New York Times), and approached Akashic Books, a book publisher from New York.

Go the Fuck to Sleep was subject to an unintended viral marketing campaign after PDF copies of the book, presumably from advance copies sent to booksellers, were distributed via email. While the book was originally scheduled for release in October 2011, by the end of April the book had hit #2 on Amazon.com's bestseller list, and by May 12 the book was #1. In the meantime, the publishing date was moved up to June, and the publisher increased its first printing to 150,000 copies.[ Akashic, which acknowledged the importance of social media in popularizing the book ("it's a miracle from the heavens for us"), is trying to prevent piracy of the book. The rights for the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth were acquired by Canongate. The film rights have been optioned by Fox 2000.


Quite endearing imo.

And the worst part is that the majority of texans view this as a good thing.  The problem is as much the voter base as it is the political powers that be.

Though I'm quite sure the spin on the main article is obtuse...

QuoteMatch 52 Aquilae vs PrismSword


See, I felt kind of bad about my loss to Prism.  Like... had it been Prism vs. me it would've been different because of the AT order imo.  That and the charging a frog onto the unit who would immediately get a turn.  But... I'm over it.  I don't think I stood a chance here either.  At all.

QuoteI love how you think this is cool, it's actually fucking childish and pisses me off.


I'd take your complaint more seriously if your first response wasn't a "kill yourself" picture.  Buuut, it was.

The Rush Limbaugh orgy scene from Bill Hicks standup.  I'm sure they can drag these scene out with some leather/BDSM stuff to be at least 40 minutes, and then compile it with other old political figures just going to town on each other.

Spoilering because it's pure text or youtube audio, but NSFW.

Speaking of Satan, I was watching Rush Limbaugh the other day. Doesn't Rush Limbaugh remind you of one of those gay guys who likes to lay in a tub while other men pee on him? Am I the only one? Can't you see his fat body in a tub while Reagan, Quayle and Bush just stand around pissing on him? His little piggly wiggly dick can't get hard, 'Uhh... uhh...I can't get hard. Reagan, pee in my mouth!'

He still can't get hard, so Barbara Bush comes in. She takes off her pearls, puts em up his ass, and undoes her girdle. Her wrinkled, flaccid labia unfurls half way to her knees, like some ball-less scrotum. Barbara walks over, squats over his face, and squeezes out a link into his mouth. Finally, his tiny dick gets half-way hard. 'Oooh!' A little clear bubble forms on the end of his dick, with a little maggot inside. The maggot pops the bubble, and goes off to join a pro-life group somewhere.

no, because we'd rather keep our noses clean from further, possible copyright funsies.

The rom/iso is available as both a torrent and straight download from a website, both of which are balls easy to find on google.  They typically come in two formats, .bin+.cue or .img+.ccd+.sub+.cue.  Either one works.  When compressed it can be as small as ~200 MB, but uncompressed it should be 527 MB (552,701,179 bytes)

Shame to see a Frog2 team get dropped, but overall a bad matchup for Mel.  The Item/White Magic knights kept to the back while the front line decimated quite well.  Those knights are well... tanks O.o.
