M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I cheaped out and got the regular special ed. What's on the wall scroll?
Also I got Hori's Octa pad since I was going to need it for fighting games on PS5 anyways. The dpad
has a better feel than that of the regular PS5 controller, but I can tell where people who complain about it being hard come from. This also explains the Amazon reviews claiming to have broken their pads. I know guys that absolutely violate their controllers and can see them breaking this one easily. Shouldn't be a problem for me thankfully.
Is noone going to post their arrange mode scores?

Just to put a bookend on this:Warp_Rattler wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 12:16 amI had this happen to me about a year ago, with a Retro-bit Saturn pad from one of their initial runs. The plastic used in the d-pad actuator was flimsy and this was a common problem with that run. I reached out to Retro-bit and was surprised that they sent me a replacement actuator, free of charge, some years after I bought it! They obviously may be less willing to ship one to you in Japan, but if you have any regular package exchanges with family/friends back home it may be worth looking into. I haven't had any issues with my controller since replacing the actuator; I also have another one from a later run where the issue was supposedly fixed, and there are no problems with that either.Steven wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 10:14 am This game just claimed a casualty: the d-pad on my Retro-Bit Saturn controller stopped registering down inputs immediately after I destroyed the stage 2 miniboss. Opened the controller to find the d-pad's down thingy cracked. Great. Looks like I'm not playing this game, or anything else on Switch, for a while.
The 3d-printed part Triple Lei mentioned above may also work, though that one looks a bit different from what's inside the Retro-bit controller--I'm not 100% sure but I recall there being a single screw securing the actuator to the d-pad itself. I took a quick skim through Thingiverse and this piece looks a lot more like the replacement. Is 3d-printed plastic generally tough/dense enough to use for high-stress applications like this?
Whatever it takes to stop the butchery of a poor, innocent OG Saturn controller!
My controller actuator broke too on 2/25. It's cool that retro-bit can send you a replacement, but I thought I'd try the 3D printing service anyway. I downloaded the .stl linked by Warp_Rattler, went to my preferred 3D printing service (Craftcloud), and chose the hardest material they offered, which was titanium. All in, $58.35 shipped, which is more than I originally paid for the controller, but whatever. I made the order on 2/25 and it arrived at my door, from China, on 3/7.
Warp_Rattler was also right about the screw; there really should be a hole for the screw in the 3D printed part, but you don't need it as it's now friction fit. Actually, the retro-bit d-pad wouldn't even fit all the way into the actuator; I had to trim all four sides of the little plug with an Xacto knife until it fit in some more. I think you want the plug shape to be more straight and less like the letter V. But even now I don't have it in all the way (I think the original actuator would click when fully set), so the d-pad is maybe 0.5 to 1 millimeter higher than it should be. Still, it's better than completely untrimmed, and the untrimmed height really did affect the performance with a slower return to neutral. If it wasn't so hard to remove, I'd keep trimming. Probably should've checked first with calipers, but I'm satisfied.

Maybe I shouldn't have cheaped out, that artwork is really nice.
Arrange L is weird af. Very easy all the way to the end and then Hibachi just destroys you unless you have practiced the battle.

Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
Did it fix the menu slow down? I have some mx switch arcade buttons coming today, but I won't be able to check until later.
Edit: It's kinda fixed? It now stutters for a few frames every other second, but after about 10 or 15 seconds if you move the selection around it's fine.

Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I've been playing a lot of DOJ on the PS5 these past few months.
Recently, maybe because of the patch, I don't know, I've been getting some random frame stutters while playing. So I switched to using my PS4 Pro. So far it's been fine.
Has anyone else noticed any slight frame stutters on the PS5 lately or in the past? And if so is there a fix?
Thanks!

I'm also on PS5 and haven't noticed any issues, curious about your monitor/resolution settings maybe..
Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I agree, kinda surprised this wasn't in the recent patch. I guess since the JP super players (SPS) mostly play WL maybe they don't care about BL mode? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I don’t see the point of a training mode when you have save states. Save state practice is so much more efficient in my eyes, as it lets me directly target problem areas. Training modes feel redundant when I can create all those bespoke practice points based on real run conditions.
Formerly known as 8 1/2. I return on my second credit!
Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I don't think I ever changed that setting. After about 110 hours played suddenly it just started hanging up. It appears though that I fixed it by doing a system reset on my PS5 thankfully. It was fine all weekend.digitron wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2024 4:07 pmInteresting, any difference with the display response setting enabled/disabled?

Also I just have it plugged into a UHD television, nothing out of the ordinary.
Ya know, since I don't read Japanese it's very possible I did something weird with the game settings when I set it up, but it's weird that it took about 110 hours before it manifested. If nobody else has experienced it, and it's fixed after a reset, it must have been some setting somewhere. I'm just stoked it works, it's kind of my favorite game right now.
Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
Yeah I know what you mean I usually use save states as well but I guess it's more less "one of the perks" of buying a M2 port and the ability to jump right into certain stages/bosses, change your rank, difficulty, etc. without having to manually create all the saves is nice too. I like the way they have all the stages and bosses mapped out in the Arcade Challenge menu.Jonpachi wrote: ↑Mon Apr 15, 2024 1:38 pm I don’t see the point of a training mode when you have save states.

Thanks for reporting your findings, good to know and glad you fixed it.

Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
So true. With out google translate I'd be totally screwed cause right now the M2 efforts into this genre to me are like the most amazing thing ever. Mister FPGA is great...but M2 Shottriggers....man it's so much fun.
Also not to get off topic but I'm finally at the point where in Black Label 2 Round I can consistently make it to the final boss 1 credit, but every time I got a good run going Stage 5 shows me the true meaning of fear and sadness, and I end up at the final boss with like no extends, one bomb, riddled with bullets. Like one engine on fire hah.
I'm sticking with it and I take breaks to play Progear or Helldivers with my buddies who refuse to play STGs but man....Stage 5 is a damn beast. That shit is nasty.

What's the likelihood of there being an English localisation?
Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
Unlikely. I don’t think they are selling very well even in Japan. The Black Label score table I checked this week only had about 200 entries and many of them are in english. There is no minimum score to get on the score table.

Not very good as noted. We've been losing out on most of the recent M2 ShotTriggers lineup here in the west.AGermanArtist wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2024 10:06 am What's the likelihood of there being an English localisation?
I think we're likely just to get the Toaplan collections only due to Toaplan and Limited Run Games both being owned by Embracer. Nothing else I'm afraid.

Yeah, I'm sort of asking for someone else in the hope someone can produce the Tweet or article that I'm convinced exists where Nori says to get a JPN PSN account because they aren't doing Western localisations again.
Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I’m confused. Based on v1.0.3 change log, english, it translated, it seems now possible to set no rewind in arcade challenge :
When setting "NO REWIND" in ARCADE CHALLENGE, the number of rewinds displayed in the challenge start window has been displayed as "NO REWIND"
When challenging with the "NO REWIND" setting in ARCADE CHALLENGE, the number of retries is not displayed in SCORE GADGET.
I cannot see this setting in resource settings window of any area. Did I miss something ?

Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
Hello,
Quick question. Is bomb activation supposed to be instant in Dai Ou Jou? It feels like there is a gap from when the button is hit to when the bomb activates. I always figured this was by design but now I'm starting to second guess that because I believe in DDP it's pretty much instant?

Another piece of good M2 news today: the Rinne Tensei OST and the Remix CD are available now on KHInsider.
https://downloads.khinsider.com/game-so ... iroku-2023
https://downloads.khinsider.com/game-so ... -disc-2023
Off the top, I'd recommend the 'extend' remixes of Nhato's 'Yellow Stream' (goes HAM in the latter half) and of Watanabe's East Asia (like a completely different song from the one in the game).
Incidentally, I saw that the OST arrange for Rinne Tensei wasn't super well-received in certain corners of the internet. Lame. Get a subwoofer.

Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I don't dislike the arranges, but overall I don't especially love them and kinda hoped for more out of this particular release. That being said, I love Yebisu303's Stage 3 (Strange Dance) arrange. I wish you could mix and match original/arrange music in the game by stage, that one would go in my playlist.
I am a little disappointed they had just one in-game arrange, generally giving each guest composer a stage+boss theme. The other Cave ShotTriggers games (Ketsui, Esp.ra.de, Dangun) all had multiple arranges by different composers. How is DOJ the one that got left out of that? Feels less cohesive when each stage is a different composer and they have their own unique styles, I would have liked to have been able to hear each one's take on the whole damn thing. I did think thought it was kinda cool when Batsugun S-Tribute did the multiple composer arrange thing (which was a little unexpected to me for a port of a Saturn port), but this DOJ release feels like it deserved more.
The SuperSweep extra disc though, that one I really love! I preordered the CD direct from SuperSweep to get that and used a proxy service to ship to US (wasn't going to miss out again like I did with SuperSweep's similar bonus disc with Esp.ra.de Psi). Wasn't disappointed.

This! Much of the action is in the bass. It fills up lots of space in the mix and at low volumes it doesn't have an impact.

Re: M2 ShotTriggers DDP Daioujou Rinne Tensei
I also must thank you for calling out that Yellow Stream remix. I had slept on that one a bit due to it not really catching my attention in the early bits, but gave it another listen with your comments in mind and you're right that it builds up to some great stuff in the latter half! One of the better ones for sure, even if I still prefer Yebisu303's take on Strange Dance.
