Touhou is harder :V Derp thread III

>FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
(I feel bad about saying I did well before, though. most of the flandre battle only gets 30 fps on my netbook so I feel like I am taking the easy way out, no matter how much I try to speed my comp up. Stahp, EoSD. All the other touhous run fine ;-;. The run I'm talking about jhad over 50% slowdown ;_;)

[Seppo Hovi]

EoSD custom.exe should have an option for forcing 60fps. You could try it.

[Sakurei]

it should also be possible to force it to 60 fps via vpatch. It also causes input lagg to disappear/get better, so there's that.

after playing for 2.5 years or so without it, I felt like god when I installed that thing.

[Kenta Kurodani]

The problem is that I can't get it to work, even though I'm in a japanese locale

How can I die to Demarcation a billion times and Icicle Fall Normal.  :colonveeplusalpha:

[Chalros22]

(who dodges a bullet, then retreats only to bump into the very same bullet?),

I do, at least 30 times a day

[Lepetit89]

I do, at least 30 times a day

That sounds frustrating, speaking of which:

My first PCB Normal run went a little better, no Misses or derps until Stage 5 where I got the rhythm wrong and took a bullet from point blank range. Two Misses against Youmu due to wrong strategies during the second NS-Pattern and the third Spellcard, though I doubt I'll ever forgot how to do those now.

Yuyuko, however. five Misses or six, I don't know, but I do know that I was seriously worried about Game Overing. Did the second Spellcard the wrong way, forgot about Bombs when I got a little too close to Yuyuko during the third NS-Pattern, then I lost another Extra Live to the fourth Spellcard because I've become somewhat bad at reading the spreading bullets at the beginning of each wave, then I lost two or three Extra Lives to her fifth one because apparently, bombing and actually watching the bullets around me are foreign concepts to me. Though I have to admit, the second Miss was a result me being somewhat irritated, at least I managed to regain my composure when that caused me to lose an Extra Live.

Man, I was totally slaughtered there.

Edit: Okay, the other runs also had a few derps, but I managed to warm up by the time I went through the game with Sakuya B. The last time, I had the most problems with her and really disliked the shottype, but I this time I thought it was the most interesting run and also had the best run, clearing the game with full Extra Lives and a Bomb, the Bomb being an Extra Life that turned into a Bomb.

If I screenshot the error vpatch gives me, can someone help me? I really want to do this legit...

Somebody PLEASE answer this! I'm having the same problem. My EoSD Folder:


and the error when I try to open vpatch.exe:

[Cor]

Rename th06e.exe to 東方紅魔郷.exe.

[Raikaria]

> Reinstalls TD at last after PC wipe

"Well I'll just 1CC this again..."

> Dies twice on Stage 6 stage portion

 :colonveeplusalpha:

*On the upside I actually beat Seiga's 3rd nonspell, the one with all the knives, without dying or bombing, which I've never done before because I panic*

[Kenta Kurodani]

Corevan, tried that, it no worky.

[Goldom]

I forget if you said earlier, are you in Japanese locale? EoSD vpatch needs both the locale and the file name changed. Applocale works fine for me too.

[Kenta Kurodani]

[Zork787]

well I had one of the derpiest Sanae TD runs ever. First I completely fail on Stage 2 and use my first continue against Yoshika, then I go on to do pretty good in Stage 4 and actually have a pretty funny panic bomb moment during Seiga, unfortunately I wasn't able to save the replay since I had continued, then I go to have a pretty bad Stage 5 run and even use a Second Continue against Futo WHEN SHE CLIPS ME WITH AN ARROW DURING HER FIRST SPELL CARD!!!!! After witch I go on to having a near perfect Stage 6 run, only bombing once during Miko's last Spell Card when I get surrounded by bullets just as the last phase started.

So yeah, pretty derpy run if you ask me :V

[Tsym]

For the two people having trouble with vpatch for EoSD, backup your folder or the files you'll be replacing and try adding these files into your EoSD folder. These are my vpatch files including the renamed .exe. If it still doesn't work, then we at least know where the problem isn't.

[Chalros22]

This is completely un-Touhou related, but it might be one of the biggest derps ever on this thread. Just cooked a pizza, took it out of the oven ,then realized the cardboard was still underneath it.

1. How the fuck did I not notice that?
2. How did it not catch on fire or start smoking or something?

HURR DURR

[Bang Jan]

Where should a thread about derps that happened in real life go?

[Chalros22]

I don't know but I thought people would laugh at that more than just feel bad as with the normal Touhou derps. Pizza still tasted fine oddly enough

[I have no name]

>touhou derp thread
>posts somethign about pizza
>does know about the Shrinemaiden Cafe
Chalros wins at derps.

Also, I had 3 stragith PoFV runs where I fell apart Komachi round 2 AND Shikieiki round 3.

[Chalros22]

>does know about the Shrinemaiden Cafe

I haven't gone on MoTK directly in 6 months, I have Help Me Eirin on my links bar

I once set the oven for the correct temperature for cooking frozen pizza but forgot to actually turn the dial to "bake," so yeah, it sat in a cold oven for fifteen minutes.

And once I finally did cook it it was charred on the bottom.  :V

Still better than that one time I turned on the stove instead of the oven, with a plastic toolbox standing on top. A few minutes later, one of the corners of the box had molten off, and the whole kitchen was veiled in smoke. To top it off, my mother shattered a lamp while trying to open the window.

Back on-topic, I managed to lose 4 lives and get a continue in Normal MoF Stage 2 today. Haven't played the main game in god knows how long.

[Chalros22]

I'm glad I could start an awesome conversation like this

[Kenta Kurodani]

IT WORKS! Apparently the last japanese name I copied it to was just incorrect. Well, that was a simple fix >_>

[fsvgm777]

SA Normal run with ReimuA:
Yuugi rams me while initiating her first spell, thus losing two life pieces, since I let the life piece from her first non-spell drop.
Clipped a laser during Flying Insect's Nest.
Somehow died during Blazing Wheel (seriously, that spell is one of the easiest, in my opinion).

At least I got to Hell's Artificial Sun, so... I can totally do this. Good thing I can somewhat consistently capture BoWaP on Normal without using the safespot (I fail at properly getting to it anyway).

[Makedounia]

Seems like I'll never beat Byakuren. Made it to her last spellcard with 2 lives and no bombs. Lost my last life when she had about 1cm of health left -> ragequit

[RNG]

LNBNT progress!

On the plus side, finally made it past Seiga, but then I game overed to ghost circles.   :wat:

[Lepetit89]

So I went through the IN Extra Stage with Sakuya&Remilia since the replay of my first clear went missing somehow. I gave every Spellcard a try or two in Spell Practice, then started the first attempt and just went through with it. Despite forgetting roughly half of the stage, failing lots and lots of Mokou's easy Spellcards, I somehow still wound up seeing Imperishable Shooting with 0 Extra Lives and 0 Bombs left by capturing many of her hard ones. Probably could have cleared 1/0, but unnecessary movement at the beginning of the last Spellcard for the sake of placing my familiars seemed to have doomed me irrevocably.

I don't know what's worse, the run itself or the fact that it still beat my old High Score for Sakuya&Remilia.

[Zengeku]

Tried a LNBNT run of Ten Desires and I only made it to Seiga. This run was pretty gross. I died on Kyouko, after midboss Kogasa and lost the rest of my lives on Stage 4. That is pretty pathetic.

Maybe i should try to clear under these restrictions. Maybe.

EDIT: Hahaha, oh boy... so following the above mentioned run, i enter practice mode to play around with Seiga for a bit and I manage to fail her final non-spell three times, her final spell three times in a row and her other non-spells eventually too. I don't think i'm cut out for playing today  :V
