PTB 2.2 in works

(And how to avoid/fix a specific softlock)


Hey.

Will be working on Version 2.2 of the PTB, but it'll be a bit until it'll be ready. These issues are popping up while I'm in the middle of setting up changes to the powerups, so I'll need to get the basics for that set up before then.

This fix will mainly address the Geist Lair's autosaving of vital location data, so it shouldn't affect anyone who isn't that far in the game yet.

If you are planing to head there before the autosave fix, or have gotten stuck because you already went in, then continue reading.

If you are about to enter the area:

Save immediately upon entering the area.

It will save us both a lot of trouble if you do that, and you can continue on this do-or-die trip without any issue.

(Also, dying will put you back in Fazbear Hills, so the punishment for losing really isn't that bad.)

If you entered the area and left the game before saving:

Well, congrats. In trying to back out prematurely, you are now out of bounds and are softlocked.

In order to get back, you'll need to edit your save file. Go to AppData/Roaming/MMFApplications and open up the corresponding save file.

You'll need to adjust these values to get back in bounds. If you use the numbers exactly, it'll drop you right back into Fazbear Hills.

So, yeah. Fixes on the way.

'Till next time.

I might be having too much fun with this process...

I think I know what needs to be done to shake up XL's next public appearance...

This whole "making a new battle frame" situation does give me an excuse to add some things I had been putting off for far too long.

Suppose it's rude to come back doing polls without showing some sort of progress for it.

Yeah, we're doing this.

While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.

Got a (mostly stable) demo ready for the occasion!

Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.

Can it be done?

(Also, Happy New Year)

Mini Progress Update:

Motivation came back for a bit, so I figured I'd use it to bring Minibosses back into the fray

(Also working on a demo-specific sidequest that hands out powerups.)
