King's Field Series / Re: Mista Fopa didn't give a Release Rock to me? Am I f**ed?

« Last post by knighTeen87 on April 12, 2024, 06:13:29 am »

Been a while since I’ve wrote here heh, surprised you’re not in the discord server.

Fopa doesn’t give you a key for the first door, he’s supposed to give you one for the door that’s past those two keys.

I opened that door with other Release Rock that I found in the game, so he didn't give a Release Rock to me.

Because of that I couldn't open the door that leads to Moonlight Sword transformation and got the bad ending.

I think this a very serious bug. It's really interesting that the developers couldn't detect it

King's Field Series / Mista Fopa didn't give a Release Rock to me? Am I f**ed?

« Last post by knighTeen87 on March 14, 2024, 01:20:09 pm »

Hello everyone!

I'm playing the PAL version of KF4 on my PS3 (using ISO). When I discovered the door that we open with a release rock and that has Healing Stattue behind it, I didn't go and talk with Mista Fopa. Much later in the game, I found another Release Rock and used on the door. Now whenever I try to talk with him he doesn't give me Release Rock. So I can not open that gate which needs two Release Rocks, which has Engineer's Key inside.

What should i do? Am I stuck?

SOM Guides, FAQ and Help / Unable to climb stairs made in the Map Editor

« Last post by Fennick on December 04, 2023, 01:57:02 am »

Hey all, new SoM user here.

I've been playing around in the map editor and hit a roadblock while playtesting with some stairs. I can't even get up the first step while trying to ascend them, regardless if I'm walking or running. I made a couple more using different tiles and widths, but I run into the same issue. The height difference between each step is .5, which should be climbable according to the tutorial linked in the forum.

I'm not sure if I'm missing an obvious setting essential for staircases, but I haven't had luck finding another topic (here or elsewhere) regarding this. Any help would be appreciated.

King's Field Series / Playstation "Top Secret" 1994 Promo VHS

« Last post by Guyra on October 05, 2023, 01:41:14 pm »

I saw someone had uploaded the content for the 1994 Japanese promo VHS for the PS1 to Youtube! It's an item I have in my KF collection, as it features footage of the first game from before release! The clip is only 30 seconds long, but a fun piece of KF history nevertheless! ;)

Another version of the same footage was found on a different VHS also published on the same Youtube channel, with a more serious tone to it.

Also, it shows what I assume to be the MSRP of the game at the end, which is ¥6,400.

Enjoy! :D

PS: The youtuber's got more KF content on his main channel.

Hello, long time no see! Figured I'd pop by and share this video that was published the other day by the Youtube channel Majuular. It's an over 3 hour long retrospective on the entire KF game series, and is really good! :D

Thought you guys might enjoy this video! Cheers!

SOM Guides, FAQ and Help / [Bug] NPCs won't give XP

« Last post by Conkern65 on December 15, 2022, 02:15:28 am »

I have been having a recurring bug where NPCs do not drop XP no matter what when they die. It seems to be a 1.2 patch exclusive bug, as it works properly on vanilla.

Is there a way around this that can be done manually with Events? Like changing player parameter? They don't let you affect player XP in changing parameter. Is there a combination of events that can cause the player to gain XP?

I tried asking about this on Discord before and was told there's no way to fix this bug. Not sure if that's true, it works correctly on 1.0, just not on 1.2

Game Chat / Gamespot article talking about indie "King's Field-likes"

« Last post by Guyra on September 28, 2022, 06:32:09 pm »

Came across this interesting article in my FB feed, and figured I'd share it here. (Hey guys! Long time, no see!)

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/move-over-dark-souls-the-from-software-title-inspiring-a-new-wave-of-games-is-kings-field/1100-6507649/

The article talks about how KF-like games are becoming more and more popular, and mentions several indie titles that looks quite promising. (Though most of them aren't finished.)

Sadly no mention of SoM or the games made by the people on here, though. ;)

General Discussion / Re: Modding Expeditions (KF)

Recently I worked on putting these kinds of textures animations inside the MDO files themselves. This way the speed can be controlled and move on more than one axis (still limited to constant "translation") and attached to multiple polygon groups (not textures, but arbitrary groups.)
