Re-Pac 2 Pac-Family Restoration has been updated for the Sonic DLC update. this took less time to do than expected Download from either Gamebanana or my Google Drive here: gamebanana.com/mods/627599 drive.google.com/file/d/1Oxk7...

The Sonic DLC for Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac finally dropped, which breaks the current Pac-Family Restoration 2 mod. I will get to work on updating it to be compatible with the Sonic update immediately after my crappy internet actually manages to download the update to my PC.

I would like to present a very special mod for Re-Pac 1. It's a playable character replacement where you can play through all of Pac-Man World (1) Re-Pac as Ms. Pac-Man. You can get this mod from either Gamebanana or direct from my Google Drive. gamebanana.com/mods/630539

An update has just been pushed to Pac-Man World Re-Pac 1. Yes, 1. Not Re-Pac 2. However, the only changes made are to UnityPlayer.dll and the uninstallation files. data.unity3d was left untouched, which means none of the packages it contains were changed. As a result, mods should be unaffected.

vanilla gift cards suck so fucking bad holy shit you can't do ANYTHING with them bro I just want to order some fried chicken on doordash don't buy vanilla gift cards for someone's birthday get them literally any other gift card

Re-Pac 2 Pac-Family restoration is also now on Gamebanana. gamebanana.com/mods/627599

By popular demand, I have slowly begun uploading my Re-Pac 1/2 mods to Gamebanana, starting with Re-Pac 1's Pac-Family restoration mod. More to come soon. gamebanana.com/mods/627593

I finally decided to explain to the best of my ability the horrifying process of how to edit audio in Re-Pac 2 to someone asking in my Discord DMs. I now pass the knowledge onto you. Once reading this in full, you shall understand why I've been reluctant to explain this. SIX. DIFFERENT. PROGRAMS.

Here's another Re-Pac 2 audio mod. It restores the voice filter for Spooky (and another character) from their original game. Please note that this mod assumes you have the Pac-Family Restoration mod installed. This new mod also integrates the hotfix for that mod. drive.google.com/file/d/1q7l-...

BREAKING NEWS A problem affecting a single line of dialogue that wasn't there during an earlier test somehow found its way into the public release of the Pac-Family Restoration mod for Re-Pac 2. Please install this fix to patch the issue after installing the mod. drive.google.com/file/d/1w_IP...

It's finally here: Pac-Family Restoration Mod 2. After two weeks in development, hopefully it will have been worth the wait. Please let me know what you think. Thanks, and have fun. drive.google.com/file/d/1RUeF...

currently in the process of re-pacing the missus to be updated to Re-Pac 2 standards

now before anyone starts expecting me to rapid-fire mods I just want to point out it's still REALLY annoying to replace audio in this game and it requires juggling a whole new slew of programs it also requires a hex editor Re-Pac 2 audio replacement is not for the faint of heart, even with the key

Now that Re-Pac 2's audio can finally be modified, let's start with the simplest mod that everyone probably wants. this replacement file makes Pac-Man stop saying "TASTY" and "YUMMY" constantly while leaving all his other voice lines intact have fun drive.google.com/file/d/1mYon...

THE CRIWARE KEY HAS BEEN FOUND THIS IS NOT A DRILL THE DOOR TO MODDING RE-PAC 2 IS NOW FULLY OPEN

i'm so god damn sick of bluesky's character limit so fuck it i'm putting what I want to say in image form

I can't keep doing this alone. I've once again hit a brick wall in the form of a CRIWARE audio decryption key that I cannot find. Despite all my searching online, I can't find this cursed key, which is required just to LISTEN to Re-Pac 2's audio out-of-game, let alone replace any audio.

WHERE IS THE FUCKING AUDIO DECRYPTION KEY? WHERE IS IT? WHY IS GOOGLE USELESS? WHY ARE ALL THE CRIWARE UNITY DECRYPTION KEY DETECTORS MADE FOR ANDROID ONLY? WHY AM I ALWAYS ALONE IN THESE TASKS? I CANT EVEN FUCKING PLAY THE AUDIO, LET ALONE REPLACE IT I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO PLAY THE FUCKING GAME YET

The audio of Re-Pac 2 is not contained within the packages like Re-Pac 1's audio. They appear to all be in the StreamingAssets folder. Probing the files suggests these files are unmarked ACB / AWB archive pairs. Unfortunately, I don't know what pairs with what, because the filenames are just hashes.

Good news: Re-Pac 2's files are NOT compressed! All the packages come separated, unlike Re-Pac 1! ...and although not all of the files are downloaded on my end yet, UABEA managed to open one of fully downloaded packages without issue. The moddability of Re-Pac 2 is looking good.

Notices to those anyone waiting on me to fix the stand-in characters in Re-Pac 2: 1. My internet is currently very slow, and there is no guarantee that my download of it will even complete today. 2. There is no guarantee that the game is even moddable like Re-Pac 1 (I will refund if it's not.)

There are known ways to mimic the Playstation 1's affine texture warping in Blender but I wish there was a way to mimic the Sega Saturn's quad-based texture warping as well. They're two different effects. I want to be able to simulate the way the PS1, N64, and Saturn all handle textures.

I am NOT calling her "Clie". But I can't call her "Sue" either, because that name's taken. Someone suggested that her name is SUPPOSED to be translated to "Claire", so changing her name to that is another thing on the list of "Things to immediately do when Re-Pac 2 finally releases".

NOTE ABOUT AUDIO REPLACEMENT VIA MELONLOADER: I have found a minor flaw with the mods I currently recommend for audio replacement in Pac-Man World Re-Pac: They do not appear to work with sounds played during cutscenes. This includes pre-boss cutscenes and mid-fight cutscenes... (1/4)

Here is a new update for the Re-Pac Pac-Family Restoration mod. This version uses UABE's .emip packages instead of .xdelta patches. It also relies on MelonLoader. While the download includes instructions, I will also provide brief instructions here, with visual aids. drive.google.com/file/d/1kDC_...

With MelonLoader Audio Replacement, I no longer have to worry about audio files interfering with other mods. Now, I can release this to the public. This plays every remix in Re-Pac at the pitch the PS1 version INTENDED to play the songs at but didn't due to an error. drive.google.com/file/d/1p46V...

Here is the state of my efforts to try and make Pac-Man World Re-Pac modding a little more accessible: The bad news is that for the foreseeable future, you're still required to decompress data.unity3d and extract packages. The good news is that I've found small ways to make mixing mods easier.(1/11)

HELP WANTED: Someone who can get either BePinEx or MelonLoader to replace assets in Pac-Man World (1) Re-Pac on the fly, so that future Re-Pac mods don't have to rely on .xdelta patches. Bonus points if it can replace assets without end users having to decompress "data.unity3d" help pls

None of the MelonLoader-based texture replacers work. Most of them are purpose built for a single game. The only one that isn't refuses to do anything. I've been screwing around in Visual Studio, with no idea what I'm doing, hacking the latter mod's source code to no avail. I'm losing my damn mind.

In Re-Pac 1's mazes, specifically 6-4 and 6-6, where there was once Funky in the PS1 version, there's now duplicates of Inky and Clyde. This is fixable, but since Sue was also scrubbed from Re-Pac (she appeared in the background of PS1's intro), I decided to add her as well. No more dupes!

I never did vibe with the logo for Re-Pac 1. Putting "Pac-Man World" all on one line always looked awkward to me. Meanwhile, I think the logo for Re-Pac 2 looks great. So I decided to combine color choices and design elements from Re-Pac 2's logo with the original PMW1 logo to make something better.

I once stated that due to Bamco's horrific handling of Ms. Pac-Man behind the scenes (as WELL as publicly), that I wouldn't give them money again. Re-Pac 2 is an opportunity for them to be an exception. If I can mod Ms. Pac into it, they can keep my money. If I can't, then I REFUND THE GAME. (1/5)

Here is the first public version of the Pac-Family Restoration mod. It's being distributed in the form of .xdelta patches that need to be applied to the packages extracted via the video tutorial I posted. Further instructions are contained in the zip file. Good luck. drive.google.com/file/d/1BAue...

I have made a tutorial for decompressing Re-Pac's main data file. Before installing the patches that I am about to upload and share, you must follow the instructions here. I apologize for the poor quality of the footage; I didn't realize the screen recording was low-resolution until it was too late.

I am no longer certain how to distribute the mod. Patching the uncompressed individual files within the main data file results in three individual patches maxing out at a couple of megabytes each, but is complicated to explain how to get working for non tech-minded people... (1/4)

The Re-Pac Family Restoration mod is nearing a first release. However, for those of you who remember the mods I made for Pac-Man Museum+, this will NOT be as trivial to install as those. You will need to decompress Re-Pac's data.unity3d file. More details will be shared in the upcoming README file.

This took me three years to do. Three whole years. I finally have the power to right some past wrongs. It's finally time to fix Pac-Man World Re-Pac 1 for REAL this time.

I hate Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. I hate it because it doubles down on several things I hated about its predecessor, Smash 4 (Wii U/3DS), while introducing unique problems of its own...

I don't think I'll ever truly be happy again until I get the fuck out of this physical location I don't feel like I'm living rn just existing

I didn't have a job before because of fear of the world and an inability to drive. Now, it's because the moment I get a normal income stream is the moment I have to pay taxes. I REFUSE to give President Shitpenis money to spend on some more bullshit that embarrasses everyone stuck in this country.

I often wonder if it's possible to immigrate from the US to Canada because honestly this shithole country I'm living in now is a lost cause.

The presence of Galaxians in the arcade game Gorf implies that Gorf lies somewhere hidden on the UGSF timeline. The presence of Space Invaders in Gorf would, in turn, imply that the entirety of Taito's Space Invaders franchise is also on there. epic prank on namco by midway

I don't have an April Fool's joke this year. Lack of motivation, lack of ideas. Sorry.

Sometime near the end of 2023, a thought popped into my head. There existed Sega CD / Mega Drive combo units like the CDX, and the combo 32X / Mega Drive combo unit, the Sega Neptune, was considered at one point. I thought, "what if Sega compressed the entire Tower of Power into a single console?"

I wish I knew if anyone's using this for anything. Improving the way it's written, using it to make a ROM hack that isn't Man-Pac, porting to another platform like the Master System or something, etc. I don't know what to do with this myself. I already did the one main thing I wanted to do with it.

Deadnaming is a form of transphobia that involves calling a trans person a name they no longer use. In retaliation, I will now exclusively assign incorrect names to certain unsavory individuals. For example, the name of the current president of the United States is now "Mr. Shitpenis"
