Re: Unknowns in the PoP2 level format

unknown III : offset = 0x2B39, size=32*30=960. For each tile of each room, tells which set of background musics should be used. (0 or 1) Set 1 seems to indicate danger. I found a reference to the game using different music for dangerous places: https://macintoshgarden.org/games/prince-of-persia-2 (...

Re: Forum spam

Done. I sent _Zaphod_ an e-mail and reset their account password to a new randomly generated one. Good, I see he posted again: https://forum.princed.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=4930&p=35517#p35517 Could you do the same with the other hacked accounts? https://forum.princed.org/search.php?author...

Re: Autosplitter for PoP1 SNES 100%

(Posting for test message) Hello David, I was wondering if in-game timer could be added to the regular any% autosplitter just like the 100% autosplitter has it. I'm attaching the any% autosplitter here. Hope it is possible. It seems I made a silly mistake with the in-game timer in my previous post....

Re: Forum spam

Spam is coming from a user who made legitimate posts back in 2017: https://forum.princed.org/search.php?author_id=2597&sr=posts (Note: Only admins and mods will see the trashed spam posts.) This happened again, now to _Zaphod_: https://forum.princed.org/search.php?author_id=341&sr=posts Eve...

Re: Forum spam

There is a Spamhaus link in the block message. I wonder if maybe the block is not even coming from the built-in IP-blocking of the forum, but from the Stop Forum Spam extension? Err, or maybe it's built-in after all, but it's not from the "Ban IPs" section of the Moderator Control Panel: ...

Re: Forum spam

This happened again, so now I un-banned all banned IP addresses. This did not help. This PM gives a further clue: Tried to log out and log in again, same thing. Oddly, the spamhaus link says the IP has no issues...gonna try disconnecting and reconnecting my modem here. There is a Spamhaus link in t...

Re: Forum spam

I wonder if it's a good idea to block/ban IP addresses of spammers, especially for an indefinite length? I am asking this because a few days ago Shauing PMed me because he was blocked by IP address. This happened again, so now I un-banned all banned IP addresses. Let's hope we won't get too much sp...

Re: Are POP2's controls supposed to be this bad, or is something wrong with my setup?

The game soft-locked after the epilogue when entering my name into the hall of fame. Tapping buttons on my controller just resulted in random characters being written and there was no way to press "enter" By the way, how is the player supposed to enter their name on a real Xbox? Did the d...

Re: List and meaning of debug commands

There's a list of debug commands and cheats you can see listed on these pages: https://popuw.com/cheats2.html https://popuw.com/parameters.html This isn't a complete list, though. I thought there was a full list of PoP2 cheats somewhere, but can't find any... G = Something to do with shadow and cha...

Re: Shapeshifting symbols

is it completely random or are there triggers to get a certain symbol? I think both the symbol and its position are random. According to when_are_overlays_loaded.txt in the disassembly, functions specific to level 2 ("desert") are in overlay 0005. (You can find the overlays in the 2014-06...
