/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I need some help from everyone with testing the new v2.00 version of the Touhou98 Experience pack.

The current version (v1.01) runs some of the sections (like the MS Final Boss and MS Extra) way too slowly with the default settings, so I've tweaked them a bit, but it's not as simple as just cranking up the emulated cpu speed to the maximum. If it's too high the emulator won't run at full speed on weaker computers, so there's a sweet spot to find.
Please grab it from here and run MS Extra from th05 jp (which, on this particular "release candidate" version, has been unlocked from the start), and focus on the section shortly before the midboss. It features lots of enemies shooting lots of graphically-intensive bullets, so it's the perfect stress test.

(If you want a challenge, try to survive as long as possible without killing the enemies, to fill the screen with as many bullets as possible.)

You can check the huge list of changes in this version on the changelog included, but here are the most important ones:
- Replaced NP21/W with NP21fmgen, which fixes the issue of the menu bar being invisible in fullscreen mode and the crashes when going fullscreen on some computers.
- Removed the per-game config files.
- Modified the config swapping script, to make it edit the emulator's settings file directly instead. (This means that the emulator's settings can now be modified without them getting overwritten the next time you start a game.)
- Updated the th01 (jp) HDI image with the Anniversary Edition update made by nmlgc. (This fixes all the glitches and makes the game run more smoothly.)
- Moved the exe files to a new individual folder for each game, similarly to the windows games included in the "all-in-one" pack.

I've been collaborating with the maintainer of the all-in-one pack to create this revamped version, which will be included in the all-in-one pack once a few people have tested it and if no issues have been found by then.
