I found a very good Koishi video. Seems to be able to do the vine move... I was able to do it as well, but I didn't try after the patch

Press left or right during the stage select screen.

Odd that it doesn't reconize it. To be honest, I doubt you NEED a fight stick for this game... I do just fine with a 360 controller. Sadly I can't help you, but maybe Xpadder as issues with that game?

I certainly don't need it, but it would be nice to be able to use. This seems to be one of those rare fighting games playable on a keyboard (although unfortunately Shift doesn't seem to be a usable key in the controls settings, and my hand keeps drifting toward it thinking I'm playing regular Touhou), and I have a few other controllers I'll try tomorrow. No motions means I don't really need a good control stick and not that many buttons means I don't need that many buttons, although I do find flying a little difficult to control with arrow keys.

But anyway, love the game so far. Just cleared it with Reimu. Everybody looks great, and aside from the controls and the one crash that I should have seen coming (and Koishi) I'm not having any trouble with any of it. Would be nice to get the menus translated, but it's set up to be mostly usable without text. I notice that the newspapers on the win screens are all dated for yesterday. Is that the first time we've ever seen completely direct reference to the date something happens in the timeline of the games?

Am I the only here who didn't encounter any glitches at all when before I patched the game? Nothing when fighting the final boss, and nothing when playing as Koishi... Granted, I'm not sure if I used all of Koishi's moves yet, but I did use one involve roses growing out of a vine...

I hear many people talk about "port forwarding" when discussing netplay with this game, but I have no idea what it is and nobody seems to be willing to tell me what it is.

Port forwarding only matters if you have ports blocked. This is a setting you do when configuring your Wireless network. You may also need to open ports for your windows firewall to allow the game to play, but usually the game asks you if you want to give it permissions or something like that.

those are all off a counterhit starter though...

These all work off non counterhit starter, sorry I forgot to turn it off lol.
Also replace the first Y in corner with 8X for more reliability (Nitori, Marisa, other tiny tiny people)
In fact these combos work when Nitori is OUT of ammo, though you can only do two rifle loops (and in general the third loop is really weird hit wise anyway, sometimes the pushback is too great)
Her damage off any combo that uses grenade is pretty amazing, even with tons of scaling, just nade eats a crapload of ammo.
However with X and Y taking very little it evens out (also being usable when she's empty.)

Same here. The patch seems to fix some unknown bug and change some of the characters moves and properties and crash the game with Koishi's vine.
Changes that I see:
Futo's heavy shot sets up the plates
Some of Byakuren's charges got different stock and some changes in properties(haven't test it, still playing un-patched), she now also can charge her heavy attacks in Buddhist.

Can we unlock Kokoro's story mode without patching the game?

How do you use Last Words? I know you have to achieve max popularity first, but what's the button combination for using them?

Thanks in advance!

Also, does anyone think Nitori's "not allowed" sign attack is a reference to Mitori?

Thing is, I was able to set up plates with Futo's heavy shots before the patch...

I never bothered to patch the game - the bug description was way too vague ("nuclear landmine?" Sounds bad, but what does it actually affect?) so I figured I'll give it a shot and patch it if anything blows up in my face. (And, yeah, I kinda wanted to witness this supposedly epic problem for myself. Was a lil' curious.) I then read about "everyone" getting random crashes with Koishi and during the last boss, and at times completely out of nowhere, all problems I'd never run into. For the heck of it I patched a clean install of the game and started getting the reported crashes then.

While patches are generally a good thing, I'd advise against installing this one just yet and keeping an unpatched version handy until the game has had a chance to "settle" a little more. Whatever the major bug of apocalyptic brain-melting horror was, the problems introduced by the patch seem to be far worse.

(Unless I wake up to the game finishing off its formatting of my HD tomorrow morning, that is... >_>)

Yeah, I am kinda regreating patching my game. I only did it because Mamizou's Last word crash when I tried it in practice... but it sounds like I will not be able to use Koishi now with this patch...

Has Tasofro announced any info about a new patch? On their blog? From what I can tell on their main site, they haven't.

I can't open it though.

You need 7zip to open them.

WInzip sometimes has a hard time opening 7z files. I don't know if changing the extention will work

7zip is free though

Dunno about that though. Some of the complains are about Byakuren's boobs and Futo's skirt. No way a patch is gonna change that.

I don't think it would bother people half as much if the sprite artist (not Alphes, the new guy) did not have very extreme lolicon art in his Pixiv gallery.

It leads the mind to all sorts of unpleasant conclusions.

Ah. I heard of the artist being very into Lolicon. Still, I think we should try to seperate what an artist does in different works. I mean, Zone is working on SKullgirls now, and people shouldn't think SKullgirls is now a porno.

Last time I checked it was said that there were *several* spriters at work here, and that one guy was only responsible for one chara and partially for Futo. At least this was what I got out of the previous threads.

Fair enough. I do find it less likable from a purely artistic standpoint, though, because I found the previous Tasofro Touhou fighters charmingly cute. They felt different from the main Touhou games but still had their same mixture of goofiness and spectacle.

I am ambivalent.

Yeah, mainly Futo and then the other character.
I really think people are overreacting to this. Byakuren has juggle physics? Oh no! I hate her sprite now for one minor detail that no one would notice unless you're specifically focusing on her chest. Futo's skirt is short, but you still can't see anything? Obviously influenced by lolicon tastes!
