Touhou Accomplishments Thread 20: Shut up and take my Graze!

[BT]

First jab at ReimuB Lunatic ends at midgetfinal's very end of the second spell with 2/3 life pieces and 2 unused bombs.

I was hoping to at least reach the end, you know. ;-;

[Zengeku]

After 5 hours, i haven't 1cc'd Easy mode. Seriously.

[Szayelaporro Granz]

Another accomplishment? Wow :O

Hourai Doll cleared

[cactu]

Blind clear of DDC extra. Might as well link the main game blind let's play while I'm at it. 

Blind Lunatic Let's Play
Blind Extra Clear

[Zengeku]

I cleared the Extra Stage blind too. I used ReimuB for it. This stage was quite badass.

[Sakurei]

I blind cleared the extra earlier today with reimuB, also tried some scoring but obviously I don't have any sort of consistency or proper route, so it didn't work out well

no route easy mode scoring left me with something over 700m, that was quite fun and I'm sure once I have a route I can improve it.

[Shadow]

DDC Blind Hard 1cc

Well, that was extremely fun. I have not cleared the Extra Stage yet, though...

[ふねん1]

Got a 1-miss PCB Extra on a whim, just to be the odd one out in here. :V

It remains to be seen how well I'll be able to avoid DDC spoilers until I can actually get the game and a computer capable of running it (I had to take extra measures for the demo so my computer wouldn't overheat, measures which I don't have anymore). I'll consider that a challenge for myself as well.

[ARF]

Captured all spells on lunatic in DDC except the ones which crashes the game when I try to unlock them (the stage 4 stuff) using MarisaB. Also timed out the last spell card in stage 5 on lunatic.

[Sage Ω (Ultima)]

1CC'd DDC on Normal.

[chum]

Lunatic 1cc of DDC with ReimuB. She's pretty bad.

Run was livestreamed and is now on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm2anyoMtL4

[Blue]

Normal 1cc of DDC with SakuyaA. Finished with 0 lives and 1 bomb, probably would have been more if:

1. I hadn't died fifteen billion times on Seija's final
2. I hadn't died twice during Sukuna's survival
3. I had known that the red bullets during Sukuna's penultimate spell don't disappear when canceling with the bomb...

[MTSranger]

DDC Normal 1cc with Reimu A. Finished with 0 lives
Stage 5 HURRRRRR

EDIT: why the heck is the music room interface not updated yet.
I've made the files and attached them here.
Just drop them in the bgminfo and you can now extract DDC music!

[Arcorann]

DDC music extraction was already possible. It seems the Japanese work faster than you do.

Sadly I don't have any other TH14 achievements to post, unless you count working out the bonus formula for Stage 6 (it's the same for all difficulties now!)

[Ghost]

1cc'd on Normal with Sakuya-A in my first run through
I think that's a decent accomplishment considering I only figured out how her bombs worked by stage 4 lol.
And I didn't have any bombs for the last spell card of the game >.> (I died like 3 times to her 3rd to last spell card....that's such an evil mechanic)

[Makedounia]

DDC hard 1CC. My third attempt today. Then I got destroyed by extra boss

They did for the trial version, but it doesn't loop properly. What's even more funny is that they updated the descriptions the day the game released and HM still isn't on there either.

[Zengeku]

Tried a credit more at Extra Stage and managed a no-bombs run. Captured the two final spells too and finished with a shitty 2 lives. I died stupidly on many attacks such as dying twice to the card with the three rotating drums firing yellow shotgun blasts at you and dying to the first lightning spell. Very stupid but to be expected for ones first attempt at the thing.

[Byronyello]

DDC Normal 1cc. Sakuya A is awfully good.

[nguyenlc1993]

DDC Extra 1cc with ReimuB. No extra lives left because of 3 stupid deaths on Spell no. 117 (although I've captured it 3 times) and a bad run of survival spell card

[BT]

I can say... with full certainty... that whoever captures the final boss's third spellcard as ReimuB in spell practice is a god among men.

I was starting to think it possible until it dawned upon me that the streams become way too long during the final quarter of the spell, so that you're FORCED (enforced claim) to stream to the side of the screen if you want to survive. Doing so wastes exactly enough time for you to only dream of finishing it off.

Raising the impossible flag. Three hours wasted.

AAAAAAAAAAH

Of course the Japanese are faster and also I knew about that page.
In fact I copied my hex values from there and did a little bit of editing (mainly cuz Music Room Interface uses slightly different hex values).
I like the GUI of music room interface better than the Japanese tool.
It saddens me that the tool maintainer takes on the project and just uh forgets about it.
English fandom needs more dedicated people than that!

[Zil]

Almost 167mil. Four hours of ripping vines off a fence maybe did me some good! I should start working out.

[Szayelaporro Granz]

I was redoing IN extra stage to unlock Imperishable Shooting. Man, I sure improved a lot in the last few months.

[Zengeku]

So far captured every Lunatic spell in Stages 1-5. Stage 5 ones extremely stupid.

So here's what I considered:

<zengeku> so basically, using IKJL for normal movement, directional keys for horizontally swapped and numpad for vertically swapped sounds like a good idea. still considering just doing that

Rationalization:

<zengeku> ZUN is just testing the players. He wants us to cheat. Don't you see? It's obvious
<zengeku>
<zengeku> its the gimmick. the gimmick is that players must realize that sometimes cheating is alright if it's in order to workaround bad design

[Byronyello]

snippety

This *has* to be it, clearly, ZUN wouldn't be *that* silly to release the game with such a stupid gimmick.

>.>

Huh. Well, maybe IN isn't the only time ZUN's been drunk while developing?

[BT]

I raised the possibility of doing both flip spells with mirrors - have a mirror to the left or right so that you see the screen through the mirror (first spell), have a mirror above you or below you so that you see the screen through the mirror (second spell). I really need to try this!

[Lord Scalgon]

All DDC stage 6 lunatic cards captured.

I fucking hate her 3rd card.

[Serela]

I fucking hate her 3rd card.

Worth keeping in mind that outside of practice mode she has a bowl in the third card, making her hitbox ridiculously larger.

...it's still a hard card, but that makes it go down much faster, at least.

I guess that means spell practice version of that card is much harder compared to the original......*sigh

But I'll edit the description.
