Sorry, I'll stick to my opinion. MMORPGs are pointless.
Any game is pointless, whatever it's SP MP MMO or whatever you prefer to play, there is no 'point' in doing it.

The reason why most play however is because they enjoy it, having fun and so on, and thats pretty much the point behind ALL type of games.
Ok...ha ha...can we stop bashing Radioactive's balls in?

And I guess nobody like Mario [Mario & Luigi RPG 3] anymore right?

Obviously I've touched a raw nerve with some MMORPGers.
Anyone here an expert in configuring Doujin games for example Touhou and Siter Skain? Because I need some help. Something went wrong.

The sounds for the Touhou fighting games and Siter Skain RefleX no longer work. Music, Gameplay and everything else is fine but no sound effects.

It's weird because Touhou 7.5 / 10.5 and 12.3 was working with sound and everything before...but at the time I got RefleX, sound no longer works. I don't know what went wrong.

The things I can remember at the time of RefleX was:
*Downloading RefleX
*Downloading DirectX 2008 Redistrub. - RefleX ReadMe file said to install that for RefleX

*Microsoft update in progress

There must be something that makes Doujin games to have sound and music and such. Maybe something got removed that was required for the sound to work. Every other game that isn't a doujin game like Unreal Tournament works fine with sound and everything so there must be some Japanese related issue.

I either need to reinstall or remove something for the Doujin games to work fully. I tried removing RefleX and DirectX to see if that was the issue...but it wasn't. I don't know what is required.

I did try playing the games on my Laptop and everything is fine...sounds works too. So if the Laptop has no problems, then there must be something in my desktop that is missing or not working properly.

Anyone have any ideas?
Update to W7 or check your audio drivers. Tohou games uses wav for audio, so basically any card made around 2002+ should decode it and this goes for windows own embedded support for this old frequently used lossless codec.

There is really no point in using external audio cards anymore. Decoding audio takes like 1-2% of your CPU if my memory serves right, (or about 10-200mhz depending on the codec used) However you might need one if your like recording stuff and lack a line-in for your guitar, keyboard or whatever your using.

To me it sounds more like you've used nLite or something and removed the embedded driver(s) from Windows which adds support for <insert basic supported audio driver here used by tohou>. Most games usually have their own audio playback supported by the games "whatever it now uses".

TLDR: Some games are using Windows's own audio driver/playback software, and some have their own built-in.
Okedoke Feito.

When you say W7, I assume you mean Windows 7?...I had to search that. Windows 7 isn't here just yet...I going to purchase that.

Not sure what nLite is...but what your saying means something WAS removed.

Okay as of now I had some drivers that need to be updated...so for now I'm doing that as of now.

If all don't work out, my last resort would be a factory default...but I'm REALLY hoping it never comes to that.

I've had Windows 7 since last year, just as I had Vista before it become world known around the globe. I got help with XP the first time, and I've learned on my own since then.

Even so, factory whatever won't help much if whatever lol shop you bought your Computer (jupp that's right not "PC") had modified your OS beforehand, I know most do that, like install crap and stuff that makes you need to go to em for "support" like once a month or so?
Evil tsundere spirits also play? :o

Currently letting Blazblue rest a bit. Playing Valkyria Chronicles, and I like it.

Hay Radio, do you know if you can re-play past battles and gather free exp? I want to improve my tank.

IIRC only certain battles can be replayed.
Thank you sweet lady~ thank you Feito!

The sound driver [Creative SB X-Fi - CSBX-Fi] was DEFINITELY the issue.

Thank you VERY much Feito.

I already found out.

Storyline battles can't be replayed :(

The ones from that strange tab can, though, and you can adjust the difficult level :D

Yesterday was your birthday? My sister's birthday is today [10-24]. She's a sweet 16...whatever the HELL that means...hmph...girls.........

Well Happy (late) Birthday manly-shiro~. How old are you...you don't have to answer that of course.
Old enough to get a graduate title in engineering.

And I fell a bit disturbed coz the evil tsundere spirit congratted me in a very... unusual (yet cute) way.

...I'm going to pretend I didn't read that lol... Do t take this offensively but I thought you were a woman AZD-A9S... Seems I was wrong srry!
... I should really finish all my pending PSP games.

Specially CRUSH, I liked that game a lot but I always forget to pick it up.

And Ultimate Ghosts n Goblins.

None taken...Heh heh heh...you know.....you're aren't the first person that said that to me in cyber-space. Is it the way I type or how I express my words?

But man...most of my family are females. Even so...I just can't comprehend some things...they don't tell me some things...good reasons I'm sure.

As for kyoushiro:

What do you mean ULTIMATE Ghost n Goblins? That for the PSP?
Yes, the latest GnG game.

That shit's broken, difficult wise. Still stuck on level 4.
Well AZD every person usually has a secret. Although the intensity of it varies from person to person. It's not just that women keeps tons of secrets not that we don't of course. ; ) I really don't know I guess though it's how you speak. Plus that avatar. Glad to know I'm not first yey!
Beat Dracula X PSP for the first time. Thing's too damned easy once you get used to controls and understand the bosses' patterns.

Also unlocked FUCKING MOST OVERRATED CASTLEVANIA TITLE EVER. I miss the old english VAs.

REALLY?
Yup. New VAs try too hard too, but they lack the charm.

Well, IMO 90% of english dubs are absolute crap anyway.

Maybe I'll try getting Prinny for X-mas.
Is anyone in here have tried clannad game? I want to ask some question and opinion :
1. Is there really an complete english patch?
2. Is the story more satisfying from the anime? As I don't satisfied with season 2 story... like It is better i don't even know season 2...

thx...

I meant the original SOTN english voices :P

Dracula X for PSP's SOTN has new english voices, which aren't as hilarious (they're boring).

I had to switch to wapanese to make my experience more tolerable.

1.Yes there is. I believe I saw a DL for it at kawaiiheavenforums. Or you can just google Clannad Calendar 2007 and some site on first 10 resuts comes up with every Clannad thing ever made and the download links.

2.The story is more satisfyig than the anime. But IMO not a whole ton.
Wakamoto voices dracula so gogo!
Norio Wakamoto is far from being one of my favorites.

His Dracula is respectable, I must admit. But you hear him once, you heard him in ALL his roles.

So yeah, old english VA please.

"IT WAS NOT BY MY HAND THAT I WAS AGAIN GIVEN FLESSSSHHHHHH"

Oh, and it's so satisfying to have such a good Blazblue time. I really needed to get some matches on it.
Come join us on our DDR championship then ^^
