Shanghai.EXE 0.503e4_4: Special DMCA Edition

[Anonymous No.]

>Latest Release (0.503e4_4):
https://gitgud.io/SHNecro/shanghaiexe/-/tags

>What this is:
Shanghai.EXE was a Touhou-themed Megaman Battle Network clone.
Then the original developer got a C&D from Capcom and shut everything down, just before it was completed.
Luckily, someone leaked a donor-wall demo build, and the whole thing was made in C#, which meant it could be decompiled.
This is a version based on the leaked demo, translated, maintained, and now with the main game completed.
The end goal is to finish the rest of the game, which off the top of my head the postgame areas/bosses, sidequests, and netplay.

>New stuff since last thread:
DMCA fun time.
Let's see how long the new location lasts, I suppose it's better to find out if it's reliable sooner rather than later.
Put in some bug fixes early since I had to make a new build, just fixing the Kikuri version stats which I swapped around and the DruidManX sorting.
Other than that, since I'm planning on adding the postgame and fixing existing content, anyone have a list of inaccessible or CrimsonNoise-only chips/addons to use as rewards?
I'm also aware of the duplicate CRecov and Minus AddOns, and those will need to be replaced as well.
This is a real quick list of , but I haven't actually gone through and checked them:
>Inaccessible
ChrgCan2 T
ElemAura

Hakurokn
Roukankn
Kikuri
Uthuho V2, V3

I liked the idea on the previous thread of Youmu trimming the souls of their memories and self-consciousness before sending them to archieve Revival. I feel it could tie very well with some visually metaphoric, thematic and characterization ideas that would fit naturally with Hakugyokurou, like these souls and their fragments being tied to the petals of cherry blossoms and a personality that though overtly serious in the surface, has tinges of being more melancholic and that of a facade, moreover if you consider she should have the mentality of a normal teenager with her actual half-ghost years, but she tries to act responsible instead because of that duty and how carefree Yuyuko seems in comparison. I feel this personality is the way many arrange songs interpret her already as well.

Just put something about 'Reincarnation' and '49 days' and bam, you've got Mima's involvement in the bag.She could be making use of other souls to strengthen her self-consciousness or her own revival without losing her ego and actually being reincarnated into something else

[Anonymous No.]

>>22761502
Actually did that for like one release before making a github, thinking I was just being paranoid.
If this one goes down, which looks possible since gitgud is run by a company with a mailing address, nobody's used it for piracy, and all the other projects are at worst in a grey area, I'll go back to that, but with the source code will have to only come out with releases.
Mega does comply with legal takedowns, though, so if they really go that far I'll just go dark and release a link when a release is done for people to grab/rehost unless someone else wants to handle all that >>22761565 hosting shit and I'll contribute.

>>22761599
Eh, it's always been on thin ice with the initial C&D, being double illegal, and with the literal copy+pasting I did for the credits cameo, I never had any intention of making it "legit".
Threw it in there as a whim, edited it a bit once to not unnecessarily be a dick to Koki or the translators, never mentioned it once or made it anything you'd ever see unless you were curious.

Still, all said this is a really inconvenient time for this, I'd already committed to easing back on updates while I worked on the postgame and really only made this thread to put up the new link so people don't think it's dead.

Fair warning though, if they do go full hackerman and sniff out my personal info past what I scrubbed, I could disappear without warning. I love this game but I'm not giving up my life over it.
If anyone wants to pick up development/modding please do, I have zero ownership over this and it's why I made it open source in the first place.

Is Druidman supposed to not be able to attack at all?

[Anonymous No.]

>>22762467
That's actually a real interesting idea for someone to try, I'm not too bothered by it and can keep working on the postgame but if someone wants to make sure 99% of the game is "safe" then they can rehost a version wih even just censor-barred/blackscreened versions of all the BN/Zero sprites and text.
If that passes, which might be possible since the DMCA complaint mentioned Zero which is purely references rather than any sort of gameplay, main development could be continued on that fork with a "totally-not-affiliated" uncensoring patch hosted somewhere else.
Github even gave the option to appeal the DMCA, which I didn't do since there are legitimate ripped sprites, but a censored version might be able to win.

>>22763827
>>22764620
Will check, but do you mean DruidMan doesn't attack at all, or that it's too easy to stunlock him?
Planning on rebalancing him a bit, and maybe even nerfing bubbleblast stunlock (with an option in keyconfig extras to un-nerf if you really want).

It might be worth censoring the BN/Zero references or making alternatives to them. I know that the credits sequence directly rips content from bn6, and the PAs also rip sprites from bn6. The zero chips could be renamed and re-sprited, if you're willing to go that far.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22764990
How about censoring them until the project is finished? Like use some dummy placeholder sprites, then change them back when the game is close to completion.

I'd also recommend renaming the project to add a degree of separation, as far as that's possible. Makes it less recognizable but that's kind of the point.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22765033
I'm personally not too bothered by it, if they do take down gitgud then I just work on it and release when it's done.
This is an idea for someone else to try if they want the source publicly available, I'd contribute and appreciate having a "backup" but ultimately wouldn't be doing this myself.
I'd rather be working on the postgame than trying to keep on top of infringing/noninfringing content, dmca appeals, whatever sort of distribution/patching scheme that would be needed.
Wouldn't be too hard though, could just copy/paste a rectangle of "COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL" on black and go to town on the graphics files, maybe some sounds and text too, all of which can be overwritten with uncensored versions just by drag and drop.

>>22765055
Must have been fixed since 0.430, haven't played much since. EvilEye used to have no counter frames, and the version for ChrgCan2 only spawned alone, so S rank was impossible.

I think they just keep DMCAing because they are assuming that this is still same person on project.
Maybe if we just rename the game entirely, swap out the title screen, it might fall off the radar.

[Anonymous No.]

Another option would be to go fully parody. Alter the art for the Zero chips such that still resembles Zero, but isn't. Change the color to green or something. Add, remove, or change a few details so he looks like a chinese knockoff. Rename the Z-Saber and Z-Knuckle chips to R-Sword and R-Fist, since all three Zero chips share the R code.
The PAs could be could be altered in similar fashions, as can the posters in the Game Center.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22765974
I was thinking H-Saber and H-Knuckle, since H is short for Hero.

Just max out a BlitzBuster and don't fuck up your dodges, you don't even need a Fighter style for it to work. Otherwise you can set up your folder for more damage and sacrifice some flow, make sure to tap her with your buster to knock out her barrier before vomiting whatever you can at her, but just using BlitzBuster is way easier, you just sniff that glue and she's gone.

[Anonymous No.]

So it turns out that dropping an object in the middle of Kikuri's path with ScissorMan or something makes her start going fucking berserk and vomiting every attack she has at you until she can move again.

You think I've just been firing up incognito mode and giggling about how they'll never find me?
Obviously I've been taking precautions, unless we're in a dystopian corpostate for real where Capcom is the secret puppetteer of the entire networking pipeline they'll have to request (then pay someone to dig through) records from a bunch of companies. At the point they'd find me they'd be going through records that aren't supposed to exist or have access to literal corporate secrets, which I don't think some megaman fangame is worth, C&D or not.
Despite what some threads turn into, this isnt anything that would get the FBI digging through network traffic.

What I've been doing anyways is only releasing/making threads on major milestones or as followups for fixing bugs, otherwise it'd be 2-3 years before you heard anything.
I was planning on going dark for at least a few months for the first half of the postgame, until github got dmcad literally an hour or two before the last thread got archived.
Could have let it be and popped up out of nowhere in a year for a double-cancellation anniversary, but what's done is done.
If gitgud goes down too then I'll drop the public repos and go for release only, which I'll trust other anons to grab and rehost on whatever places they've been suggesting.

That said, if someone does go through with >>22765974, puts it up, and it survives, it'd be a real weight off my shoulders and I could use that as an actual repository, etc. without having to rely on any of these workarounds.

This is probably a retarded question, but has anyone tried contacting Koki to ask what he had planned aside from what can be gleaned? I honestly don't know if just sharing ideas like that while not actually developing violates a C&D. Feel free to call me a retard if it's already been tried.

It's a real dirty rush job so they're all messes of blackout censors, but I've got all the zero stuff and the stuff I added, only stuff that might be a problem might be some effects which I just checked that are pretty close but slightly different.
Mostly it's a test, if they take it down anyways then there's likely nothing we can do to make it okay.
Brute force is probably not the best way to approach legal matters, but might as well try.
I'm still just writing a first draft of the postgame stuff, so I'm not even pushing anything to either of the repos.

C&Ds are generally not something you want to try to find loopholes around, corporate lawyers can make your life hell whether or not you're technically in the right.
Would really not want to tempt fate or cause problems, especially with what's going on right now.
I think I've got something passable anyways, designed around what materials we do have, since sharing any sprites, etc. would definitely by in violation of a C&D.

Isn't it a bit too late to be worrying about a C&D given the reason this project started was because the original was hammered in that same way? Just do what you want and never, ever, try to share it to "a wider audience". The less eyes you have on the project, the less likely they'll find you.

And make no mistake - they will hammer you, guaranteed. So just hide away. This >>22761765 is one way to go about it, but either way, it'll be necessary to maintain whatever you release, so I think it's more important to limit the number of people who even know about this.

Not really something on my list of priorities, but it someone wants to take a shot at it here's what I know:
Last crash log I saw pointed to SlimDX as the issue.
I can't remember if it was used for anything other than graphics and input, but I've overhauled both of those to use OpenTK so stripping it out entirely might just be a matter of swapping out the vector helper classes and removing references to SlimDX.
Something else might break wine right after, but it'd be a good first step.

[Anonymous No.]

Could you elaborate? Source code is out there.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22783913

I meant by that guide with all those info about this game. It's still incomplete, but I'd like to help filling in. Like, something like this.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1El2iMp5Onv22YAjj4_pI7e6jQP9Y1SCuCvWYYHd354o/edit#gid=1819756953

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YBY8qQl9q-VyHKASsrnaIMdaEPlZCKUeF1ZQJpJRF_g/edit?copiedFromTrash#gid=0

Thing is, though, there's no integrated one which everyone can help bit by bit.
Also even if I just DL the guide and customize that via Excel, for some reason(maybe cause Google spreadsheet and Microsoft Excel work differently) it doesn't load properly and everything's corrupted which would take more time to restore those, including external image functions which I can't do anything about the function itself.
Of course reposting it in Google Docs would make things even more confusing, which I'd hate to see.

So there is that. I'm just looking for a guide I can feel free to modify and contribute for this game. Nothing too much, but just that.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22784433
There was someone else working on the guide, no idea if he was using a shared document or just posting sections into the thread though.
The people who made the old guide have moved on, so your best bet is probably just to make one of your own, post the link, and if it has content that nobody else has then it'll get picked up and shared around as the "official" one.
Sorry if that's not the answer you're looking for, but there's not really anybody coordinating things.
I do remember someone posting an offline version of the guide with scraped images though, let me go digging around and I'll see if I've got it.

Also, check out the map editor so you don't make the same mistake as the last guy, who savescummed in every area to get the list of GMDs while the editor already listed them all out.

So does anyone have a list of all current PAs? The guide i've been using only went up to the version ending with Pyroman, where the last navi chip based PA was Murasa's.

BeastBreath (EarthWave, DigDrill2, DarkBreath G)

[Anonymous No.]

>>22788708
Haven't gotten far enough to see everything that already exists yet, but here's an idea, maybe?
Utsuho + BlkNplm + MFlarGun U = NuclearFlare
Utsuho fires a flare forward 3 spaces, then uses her cannon attack. If the flare didn't hit any enemy or object initially, it explodes when the cannon fires, effectively doubling the damage of the attack. For added effect, maybe it could crack the enemy field when the flare manages to explode. I feel like that would be easy enough to implement, since it just reuses existing attacks?

[Anonymous No.]

>>22788957
That sounds good, but there's one issue and it's that UtsuhoV2 (since all PAs use V2 navi chips) is illegal data. Then again, we could just make it part of the navi chip library if that's possible.
Makes me wonder why koki made it and V3 illegal in the first place though. Maybe because, in the latest official demo, UtsuhoV2+ weren't fightable outside of turning the global level up right before fighting her in the sidequest?

[Anonymous No.]

>>22788976
That's what I was thinking. Not sure how one would go about adding to the library. In the worst case, if there is no way to add the V2/V3 chip to the library, I feel like it'd be fine to just use the V1, since it would be the only "official" chip of the 3?
Actually, what code does the UtsuhoDS chip come in? Perhaps that could be the material if it can drop in U code

[Anonymous No.]

>>22789006
UtsuhoDS comes in U just like the rest of the series, I'm pretty sure. Though considering it'd be a dark chip PA and those are modeled after BN final bosses, maybe it'd be best to just use UtsuhoV1.
Alternatively, UtsuhoDS could be used for some kind of really special PA since it's both a dark and navi chip, but I don't know what that could be.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22789010
If they're all based on BN final bosses, maybe an UtsuhoDS PA could reference Bass, who's consistently the superboss of the series? It could involve utsuho flapping her wings and sending out numerous Hell's Rolling attacks. Not sure what it would be comprised of, though.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22789087
Yeah, there's a disappointing lack of eligible chips for a PA that come in U code. Though maybe whenever Laevatein gets added it could be used for a Bass PA? It's a dark chip you would get from Flandre iirc, and she's heavily inspired by Bass so it would work well.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22789010
Utsuho DS U+ Black Napalm U + Headwind *
Flaps her wings and drops meteors, except instead of being targeted like what she does it's like the Meteors battle chip where it drops 30 meteors total.
Damage would be 150 per hit, 3 meteors on each panel + 3 on back row. Increased hits with areagrab so max would be 450-600 with no areagrabs or power+, 1900 with 2 area grabs and a power+10 and 30.

Beetleman I feel should have something like his Bughole to block enemy attacks for a decent amount of time, or his charging tackle attack. The big issue is that I don't know all the Chips in the codes for those navi's.

Honestly, the only Touhou theme I've heard in this game is a sample of Maiden's Capriccio in the final Kikuri fight. I really liked that actually. Speaking of Kikuri, you COULD do the BlitzBuster strategy, or use WingStyle instead. For the majority of the game, WingStyle is OP as fuck. I have LeafWing myself and I have to say I use it for almost every battle. I've upgraded my attack power to 5 now so my leaf tornado charge shot does 160 damage now.

This is how I did it --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1YB4dnMdYc

Honestly not sure on the best way to fix it, it's something else fucking up and "holding down" the button.
Only solutions I can think of would be to make some "press any button but turbo to enable the controller" but that just seems hacky and holding down turbo from the start is something someone might actually do.
Might be a small price to pay for a large benefit to the people who do have the problem, though.

Something I want to discuss out of nowhere - extra folder.

So far I've seen 2 bonus folders.

Just normal bonus folder - the one you get at AddOn event
Seiren Folder(SrnFldr) - the one you can get from museum in 2nd floor of Seiren cruise

Is there any other place I can change my extra folders? Or even before that, is there any more extra folders available other than those two? And even then I don't think I can get that extra folder I got back then AddOn event happened, now that I've changed it into SrnFldr.

No plans so far besides some extremely nebulous ideas for netplay and shared/restricted folders.

I always saw it as a bit of a lost cause, that ship sailed with the original C&D.
They're free to leave a C&D on my doorstep and I'll comply, but until then all they can do is DMCA any of the hosting sites which they would do in any case.
I know that given enough money and time there's no doubt they could find me no matter what I do to hide, but I'm pretty sure this random megaman fangame won't justify enough resources, especially now that they've done their due diligence and DMCA'd the main repo.
There's always the possibility of these updates hurting the ego of someone who has control over the budget (on top of the chances of slipping up or leaving a trail), but I still feel it's worth the feedback so I can release less of a buggy piece of shit as I would without any bugtesting.

Still, if gitgud or the pruned github go down I'm not putting them back up, and will go back to dropping at releases.
I am curious about what will happen with the github though, with a bit more effort and mspaint/a kazoo it would just be "Shanghai Engine (sample game included)".

[Anonymous No.]

Not sure how many people already found this out, byt funnily enough, the program advances are implemented as chips in the code. Not sure how many of them are like ShellHockey where they have their own dedicated chip, but you can actually set the PAs to be chips you get from mystery data. They have no image, and instead show the lines of text with their chip components as their image. They also have no code. Despite this, they have descriptions and you can put them in your folder and select them in battle.

Those are the PAs. The Shell Hockey chip is mostly just a copy of the PA code I made to see if it would function fine as just a standard chip. I included it in the code set that had flan and yuyuko and it seems even devanon forgot that.
>>22801316
If you want to you could copy the code, give it the PA art that was made by honekaryudo, adjust a bit for balance and add it to ChipFolder.cs.
>>22788976
>>22789006
All devanon needs to do is move some lines of code in ChipFolder.cs to put them back in the correct location, but if I remember correctly that can erase the chips from people's folders.
>>22788957

Two more ideas for PAs.
AtomicWave: Utsuho V2 + BurnStage + MFlarGun U. Utsuho appears and summons 3 flares, one for every row, and sends them 3 spaces forward. They have the same effect as MFlarGun where they deal half damage if they hit an enemy, or explode in a 3x3 pattern if they dont hit anything, but also inflict Melt if the flare directly hits an enemy.
BorderShield: Ran V2 + Resist + Barrier R. Ran appears and summons 3 of her shields on each row in front of you. If hit, they block one attack each, and send three of ran's rayball attacks down the row when hit.

Just a couple more PAs for some remaining V2 navichips i havent given ideas for.
BlazingWave: Pyroman V2 + BioSpray2 + Burnroad: Pyroman appears and summon a burner support cannon (the things he summons in his fight) above and below him. he then uses his fire wave attack 3 times, while his supports use a 3 panel flamethrower. This one is a pain to make a PA for just cuz there's so few fitting stage 2 chips in P code.
ReaperScythe: Scissorman V2 + Webtrap + DethWpr2 S: Scissorman's finishing move. You throw out a cobweb ball. if it connects, Scissorman appears and uses his finishing move for very high damage on whatever you hit.

Still working on ideas for Druidman, Chen, and Beetleman. Haven't fought two of them, and barely remember the beetleman fight.

>>22806631
MFlarGun is P coded, would make more sense than BioSpray.
Too bad there's no B coded chips that would make sense for a BeetleMan PA.
WhiteCard + any darkchip + Druidman V1 *
Or
Whitecard + dark desert or dark anchor + druidman v2(D or A code)
Chen's only attack is a spin that goes around like a boomerang or an airhockey. She also has two elemental towers like ColorMan.

>I'll try to fit a playthrough in or write a script to get a full list, but mind sharing the list of chips you had to grind for?
I don't remember all of them, but going through my chip folder and PA library:
Danmagun P
Roukanken Y
Hakurouken Y
Earthpower E
Sandstage S (I actually still don't have a copy of this one)


Many of the other chips I could find through raising the virus level and getting the appropriate buster rank, but I guess these were the main ones I was grinding for through crimson noise. Though I notice after hundreds of runs of crimson noise, I only have 1-3 copies of each X level chip, like ShotgunX X and StormX X, but I have a shitton of copies of Shotgun X S and StormX S.

DruidMagic: Druidman V2 + Whitecard + Normstage: Functions similarly to his X chip, where inputting a direction changes his attack. Depending on the input, he will change the current field (pressing up changes top and bottom rows to elec field, pressing right changes entire field to grass, etc etc). Pressing nothing acts as a Normstage. He then uses an elemental attack corresponding to the field he just set (Sends multiple leafstorms out for grass, strikes lightning down for elec, etc. NOT the same random targetting as his navi chip.). He uses roughly the same base attack as his navi chip if no input pressed.

>>22807250
A nice idea, but the major issue isn't so much what the PA will do. It's moreso what comprises the PA. While there's a number of options for what to pick, there's far fewer "appropriate" ones. I'm trying to come up with PAs that follow the V2 chip rule that most of the other PAs follow, while also trying not to overuse certain chips. For example, ChargeCannon2 comes in B code, so it could potentially be fitting if the PA looks like it's charging. However, two other normal PAs already use that chip. So basically, i'm wrackig my brain for the most fitting ideas before I move to breaking the mold.
My only current idea to use Beetleman + Panelshot2 + Sandstage. Maybe it could involve Beetleman using his rush attack 3 times like you suggested, then ending with beetleman falling right in the center of the enemy field, changing the 3x3 area to sand. Or cracking the area. I dunno.

[Anonymous No.]

DoctorStyle needs lots of chips selected at once, or PAs.
FighterStyle needs buster spam.
WitchStyle needs weakness abuse.

Elements are random but you can rig it with some AddOns at the Chip Store.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22809227
The elements are randomly chosen when you get the style, unless you have an [element]peace addon equipped.

I don’t remember all the style requirements, but the base requirements are:
>Doc: choose a lot of chips in the custom screen
>Gaia: take damage frequently
>Fighter: use the buster a lot
>Wing: move on a lot of non-normal panels
>Witch: use a lot of elemental chips
>Ninja: move around the field a lot

Pretty much, it's what I did between 0.502 and 0.503 anyways.
On a completely unrelated note, I just committed a change to the gitgud and github repos that did absolutely nothing of note, since I see no reason why anybody would think this game has anything to do with some game called "megaman battle network".
The repos will probably be able to be used for the base game, source code, and issue tracking/notetaking (I'll give it a month or so to make sure it doesn't go down for whatever reason), but any modifications to make it resemble some other game will have to be hosted somewhere else (probably mega).

[Anonymous No.]

There a guide for battlechips or anything?

[Anonymous No.]

Still missing some chips, and I'm kinda sure some aren't available in average way.

Like, from what I can tell, MedusEye, Hakurokn, Roukankn are possibly unavailable from normal way, let alone quite some of navi chips and dark chips.

I'm not sure when they'll be available, and some other chips you can only get from frag trader(like DrgnFlm3 which is supposedly pop out from Juragon3, which isn't available from normal way).

[Anonymous No.]

>>22813432
Hkuroken and Roukaken require Crimson Noise for now. Dark Chips are all in afaik.DragonFlam3 absolutely drop from Juragon3 and EX. MedusEye requires EX EvilEye.
Dunno which Navi Chips you are not finding.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22813432
Juragon3 should be a rare encounter in Hospital comp 2. It comes in a battle with two of them. Maybe I'm wrong and it's the V2 or EX form.
MedusaEye is from 10-S ranking EvilEyeEX, which if I remember is a rare encounter in the final ROM comp. Or you could increase difficulty by 3 levels and go to the Detective Statue in Engelles.
All currently obtainable navi and dark chips are in the game. The missing spots are for chips and bosses that haven't been added yet.
Roukanken and Hakuroken are crimson noise/chip trader only at the moment.

[Anonymous No.]

That reminds me! I think there's a glitch involving Wriggle. Iirc, you're supposed to be able to fight Wriggle optionally later in the game, but I think some flag got messed up? Cuz you can fight Wriggle as soon as you first arrive in Engelles. This wouldn't be a problem by itself, but I think it's a matter of their endgame instance showing up earlier than it should, cuz you can have them change their outfit which is quite a spoiler, and caught me by surprise.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22813528
>>22813591

Hakurokn & Roukankn: Yeah, figured.
MedusEye, DrgnFlm3: Are you sure about those random encounter ones? From what I saw via MapEditor there weren't any data about EvilEyeEX or Juragon3 appearing in random encounter on those maps. Or maybe they're not written in there and they appear as a hidden code in the game file, like it requires certain AddOns to attract'em... Not sure. Also as for that Hospital Comp 2 issue, that 2 Juragons are V2. Sometimes one Juragon2 would pop out in the same area, but it kinda feels like that single Juragon2 should be advanced into Juragon3. Heck, it's not that much difficult enemy if you know how Juragon's hitbox works, anyway.
Dark Chips: 266~270 one. Are they still in the game? I know I can get everything from 255~265, some of'em being bloody hard to get(like DrkStorm which costs 300 ErrorFrags) but still available anyway, but beyond that I'm not sure about the other 5s. Plus, iIrc Koki did show WIP dark chip 'Laevateinn' via his Twitter back then he was working on this game, so I can only guess those 5s, including that Laevateinn, were yet to be implemented in game by now.

Navi Chips: No.203~205, 242~244, 248~250, 251 are still missing even till I blast through all the storyline.
From what I read from database No.242~244 is supposedly Youmu, which isn't available unless you use Demo Bonus room, and I can assume No.248~250 being Yuyuko, while I kinda have a feeling that No.251 being either Mima or Flandre.
Absolutely no idea about No.203~205 though cause they're in familiar navi line and I haven't seen one who would fill that roster during the entire storyline.

Fixed that a while back, but unfortunately the most recent release has had to change locations a couple of times and a couple of updates were made so some other things might have changed.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22813726
There are 5 DS chips, and adding them to your inventory shows that they're 266-270. However, there is a small issue. There's a darkchip that the string editor mentions that isn't actually selectable as mystery data in the mapeditor; DrkFlare. I don't recall if that was added later? The final boss chip has the same issue where you can't add it as mystery data.
As for the navi chips, if the final boss chip is meant to take up one of the spots (Again, can't figure out how to add it to my folder to check), i'd assume final boss, yuyuko, mima, and flandre would be 248-251. No clue what 203-205 are. Maybe they were intended to be Orin, if she was fightable?

Just checked, there's an off-by-1 error in the editor, you can go to File->Settings->Advanced and up Chip Count to 450 or so, the final boss chip is #430 and the bug was making making the editor search 0-429.
DrkFlare is a chip id collision with FlandreDS, I'll add that to the other chip issues to fix.

It's quite a while off, you're good.
Only just got a rough draft of the actual story content, still need to make the new resources for the stuff I've got planned, implement it all, then put it all together.
Then comes filling out the new and some old areas, all the bugfixes, the PAs, and probably the music player.
This is going to be a big one since my plan is for everything before the new cutoff point to be "complete" so later releases can focus on just their own content.

[Anonymous No.]

If you need any more ideas for PAs, i can also try to come up with some non-navichip based ones. Though truthfully, figuring out how to make it so more PAs can be fit in seems more important than coming up with more. Otherwise, if what the readme said is true, there's basically only enough room for 6 more PAs. So Ran, Chen, Druidman, Beetleman, Scissorman, and Utsuho.

It's been a long time since I've played a battle network game but I feel like I remember when they added dark chips, using them gave your a worse ending.
I've not touched them at all so far in my playthrough because I'm afraid of it. I also want to test for PAs and to help in some fights though. Will I be missing stuff if I use them? Or maybe even missing content if I don't.

Quick question. Is the Unshuffle AddOn available naturally anywhere in the game? it seems like a really nice AddOn for S ranking. Also, is there enough hertzup available in the game atm to even USE the AddOn? Like, can you reach 20 hertz without any Dark addons yet?

[Anonymous No.]

>>22817596
Unshuffle isn’t available anywhere at the moment (for obvious reasons, it’s pretty busted). I’ve seen talk of it being put at the very end of the postgame or something, so it doesn’t trivialize the game entirely.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22817787
Ahh. I figured as much. Tbf, unless there's two hertzups i cant find, i'm not sure you can even use it in the first place without adding two hertzups for you to grab. Though I do like how using it basically forces you to use deadbody, since otherwise you cant get anywhere near enough cores or hertz to run Unshuffle.

>>22818874
The DMCA doesn't list anything specific, just that it's infringing on the Mega Man Battle Network and Mega Man Zero IPs. Best guess is because Koki was putting new builds behind Cien.

[Anonymous No.]

I'm perfectly fine being patient for Necro to release the next version, even if it IS just the first half of White Heaven. What I'm wondering is that due to this DMCA shit, will certain chips like the Z-Saber, O-Saber, TriplRod, Z-Knuckle, as well as the Battle Network PAs be completely removed from future releases? If so, that's fine, seeing as the only one of those I use is O-Saber, which is pretty powerful so if that gets omitted, I will be slightly disappointed, but no great loss. Also, Yuyuko is hard as balls now. In my opinion, possibly harder than Mima. I wonder if they'll all get their own battlechips eventually, and if Hecatia and CirnoBX get implemented as well

[Anonymous No.]

Also, an Utsuho PA would be awesome. I was skimming through the previous anon posts and saw mentions of NuclearFlare and AtomicWave. If you're looking for a name, maybe call it after Utsuho's most powerful spell card in TH11, and if possible, it would be SO cool if the "CAUTION" alert noise could be integrated into that PA if it does get made

[Anonymous No.]

O Saber could be Yorihime's sword.
Alternatively, if someone was willing to do the sprite work muuuuuuuch later down the road, you could replace the zero chips, as well as modify their animations slightly, to be the imperial regalia. Replace Z saber with Kusanagi, Rod with the magatama (have it be thrown out to hit the same spaces Rod hits), and have Knuckle replaced by the Mirror (Thrust out the mirror in front of you). Again, just an idea for muuuuuch later that would remove any reference of zero and his weapons.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22819358
The only reason multiple PAs were suggested for Utsuho is due to the fact she's one of 5 navis with a DS chip. Someone made a PA for her DS chip involving BlkNapalm, which I suggested as material for NuclearFlare. I don't like the idea of overusing a chip too many times, so I made a different PA idea without it, AtomicWave. Only one of them would be in the game IF either were included at all.
The same situation would probably occur for Mima, Flan, Yorihime, and Ran, where each would have a normal PA involving their V2 chip, and IF there's room/time, a DS chip PA. Right now though, everything is basically just ideas.

I've got a pretty good idea, there were (some spots where there could be) cameos in the credits, and the chip art for the weapons and the auras.
They might even have a problem with the panels in the 9x3 red/blue area, but that seems like bs, they're very different rivet patterns and they probably used the mmbn1 one where it's just outlined rectangles.
Wouldn't want to get anybody in trouble though, I'm faceless so I can get away with stuff but I don't know the rules on sharing legal notices, etc.

Just to be sure though I went through and reworked the panels, at least half of the battle effects, and the charge shot, I wasn't happy with how derivative all the pixels were.
I'm a bit busy so I'll purge the previous files later, but until then you can see the change at https://gitgud.io/SHNecro/shanghaiexe/commit/811b280c05307df296ff81dfa42148e888a3d014

If anybody has a problem with it, they'll have to go and replace the graphics themselves and play it how they think it's meant to be played.

It's completely understandable, and quite amusing.

Makes me wish I was more than an ideas guy. A sprite artist I am not.

Unless I haven't heard, they didn't dmca chrono x.
It's most likely because Koki put it behind a paywall.

Oh no, I didn't mean have multiple PAs of Utsuho. Just one would suffice. Also, Yuyuko's battle patterns are basically the same, but she seems a lot faster now and loves to spam that silver flame barrage, and that's not even in her SP form. As for changing the Zero chips to Touhou-based things is a good idea. I'm down with that. If it's doable for Necro to change those, then by all means go through with it.

I'm gonna be completely honest here though. I think Capcom is only bitching about Shanghai because first of all, Koki decided to crowdfund it, which was a stupid idea in my opinion. That's usually what happens when you try to make money off of fangames without permission of the original company. You get slapped with a C&D. Second, I think they're just all salty and jealous that someone else made a much better modern Megaman game than they ever could (with the exception of MM11 that is) Like, I know corporations like Konami and Sega are completely braindead shitbirds, but Capcom is up there too

Is anyone working on a guide for battlechips? I want to collect the remaining ones I have.

>japan guy put Crapcoom gaem behind paywall
>Crapcoom shoot C&D
>game gone
>but game is not gone and keeps resurfacing back
>Crapcoom keeps shooting
as you can see, the only reason this keeps happening is that they think it's the same person who got a C&D and just ignored it.
I don't think they are even looking at concrete infrigement (and they really don't have to, they got lawyers out of the ass you can't fight them) and they just keep blanket shotting.
"Rebranding" the game as denying any connections to "the original" could probably make them leave us alone.

The guy running Gitgud received a spreadsheet with screenshots of supposedly infringing content.
If we can get a hold of that then we'd know exactly what has to be changed.

Does enemy difficulty matters? Or can I just farm kedama?

[Anonymous No.]

Difficulty does matter, yes. It's best to farm easier V3 navis like Medicine or HakutakuMan since all navis give the same types of rewards.
