Pull the strings, and let the puppets dance across the battlefield. It's a serene performance.
>What is PDP?
A Pokémon/Touhou fangame, the style can looks like the old touhoumon hacks, but this one is quite different, it has many new features (animated battle sprites, customization of puppets, easy system to distribute EVs and relearn skills anytime, Reincarnation, unique map, HMs are key items, etc...). You can also make online matches.

Even though the game is translated to english, you will need the Locale Emulator too, or the numbers will be messed up (it's more pratical than change the native locale of your PC): https://mega.nz/#!q0lixKqI!n07oANzavBNSgGwWtm5Ezyuf9B0ifT36yi6Vmyi3kjoDon't use Moody your loser.Oh, you didn't used it?

It doesnt mess up for me at all...I've been playing without that the whole time
>>24828558
Setting your computer to japanese locale works as well, but jackoffs prefer using emulators for such things.
>>24828600
oh...well then.
Do you use up those gems when reincarnating? I don't mean magic frag ones.
>>24828787
The only things destroyed in reincarnation is magical fragments. Puppets, stones, and emblems are all kept.
>>24828804
Nice thanks for the info. Guess I didn't need to restart my save.tfw deleted save already

not knocking this game, but ever since you slow shitters got a hold of the translation you've been shilling it nonstop even though it'd been out for a good while already
>>24829459
Oh, another guy like that.
This game is totally based around Pokémon, has pokémon style of overworld, battle, items, many references to pokémon. It's not just a Touhou fangame, it certainly is also a POKÉMON fangame too.
Hide the thread, sir.
>>24829459
The game will get a great update at the end of the year, and just because the game is out for a while we shouldn't talk about it? Jesus.
>>24829459
I don't really see how this is shilling. I mean I'm fine with this leaving /vp/, I'm actually quite appalled its in this shitty fucking board and not somewhere else.

The Day we clear all Hackmon games, favorite girl, meme goes to s4s so this doesn't need to be her.
While we are at it, since Pokemon are animals, we too have to remove that from here since it is litterally animals.
This is how stupid this argument is going to be in a second. I am gonna make you safe from the embarrassment you are going to do.
While we are at it, do you like playing games, Gg is the place for you. So why is Pokemon a board? Ohh right, it was made because we needed a containment board. Until the day /th/ appears this is gonna stay here.
>>24829872
I thought /jp/ was /th/.
>Nitori S has blah defenses, 3 weaknesses, base 100 speed, and only base 105 special attack
How the fuck is she so high in the usage charts? Water Cannon can't be it; Water Spout generally only sees use on Kyogre in Pokemon, and that's because Kyogre is broken as fuck.
What does she have going for her? Is it just being cute?
Is there a way to play this in full screen? Manual says that f11 does it but it doesn't seem to be working. Also, any way to rebind keyboard keys instead of just controller buttons?
>>24830000
Of course. What other reasons are there?
>>24830000
She has Double Team
>>24830000
She gets Minimize (Camouflage), and she's cute.
>>24830000
Bulky offense with amazing type coverage that hits effective against a lot of common netplay puppets while still being decently fast.
Also, evasion boost. Mainly the evasion boost.
>>24830009
that is one of the things that was broken in the translation, japs code things weirdly
A reminder that the "metagame" for this is really better referred to as the "cutegame".
>>24830109
also the noonlineplayersgame
>>24830109
why so?
>>24830126
Everything is cute. Everything
>>24830126
There is a correlation between how cute something is and how useful it is in battle.
Pic related. Pic so very related.
>>24830171
futo isn't that cute.
>>24830206
Futo is lower in the usage charts than Kogasa.
>>24830000
I wouldn't say Water Spout is bad on her; she's built a lot like Typhlosion is. She also looks good at switching into and punishing the ubiquitous Power Iku due to Volt Absorb.
>>24830214
still too high.
is there trick room in this game
>>24830251
there is a terrain effect that switch fast and slow.
there is also one that turns healing into damage, one that ignores weakneses and ressitances (but not immunities) and one that remove crits and make all moves 100% hit
>>24830206
Don't say that anon.
>>24830251
Manifest Genbu is Trick Room
>>24830206
mfw special gyarados is S rank here
>>24830251
I'm building one right now. It looks a bit difficult (this is the one strat actually slightly harmed by lack of penalties on nature). At least Rika S gets to blow shit up (Steel type outrage with +30% boost, 30 base speed).
How long do terrains actually last and how common is that dark terrain breaker online?
Speed Futo is such horseshit. Why does she learn inferno.My team sucks ass against wind.
>>24830267

You know why.
>>24830494
>>24830495
I know the reasoning behind it. I just think it's stupid since Power Futo is already fire type and most other touhous are completely screwed when it comes to coverage moves.
Someone host so I can deal with those S Futos
>>24830530

>>24830654

>>24830667
Highest in the usage charts is MurasaD at 4th place (behind only UtsuhoS, MamizouD, and AyaP, and beating out SukunaD). Why that's the case I don't know.
>>24830643
There doesn't seem to be a problem. I hear Youmu is good. I kinda want to try Seiga, but at the same time she only barely misses out on a favorite 6 list.
>>24830643
I have three nethers in my team. They are pretty good.

But lolno, Rika's attack is beyond ridiculous. It's the only puppet obviously made for TR.
>>24830692
Trick Room is garbage in Pokemon and it'll be garbage here for one reason: 5 turn duration and no way to raise it.
>>24830728
>what is 3 vs 3
>>24830728
There's one way to raise the duration.. I don't think you're going to like the answer.
>>24830737
Use it again?
>>24830737
is the answeruse it again?
>>24830761
>>24830759
tere is stone that raises turns of all terrains dorks
>>24830759
>>24830761
No, even worse. There's a puppet in the game with an ability that increases the duration of terrain moves like Trick Room and that terrain that turns healing into damage.
>>24830728
You can extend the duration to 8 turns by using A. Renko, but she has pretty shit stats. All she can do is set up her terrain, maybe get a screen off, and die.
So, are you guys still trying to make stalling work?
>>24830881
Every time I see it get brought up it goes from someone complaining about how shit it is, then suddenly having an epiphany of how to make it work until someone else chimes in how there are a dozen different counters to it and then the original guy stops existing for a while until he comes back with even more reasons why it's shit.
So yeah it seems to be going pretty well, keep the dream going.

I have her in my in-game team, she gets Nether-type Acrobatics pretty early which was my strongest attack by Base Power for a good while.
>>24830927
She gets TWO moves with a 30% Confuse rate, another one with a 30% Flinch rate and Flame Charge to take advantage of them, and one with 10% chance to raise all your stats. That's hilarious.
When the expansion comes out, I'll be replaying with a Speed Sanae.

>>24831017
oh cool i play on nip verson so i dont have to
B^)
>>24831017
I don't know where you got 3 months but I can assure you it'll probably take longer, given that we're going to need to retranslate everything, and we aren't starting work -right- away.
>>24831050
I was trying to be positive...
so it will take a year again?
>>24831054
I plan to have the team whipped into better shape this time, not to mention the fact that we've acquired someone who's fluent enough in Japanese and won't disappear after 2 weeks, stalling translation every goddamn time. So we should be quicker, but I don't know if we'll be -3 months- quicker, considering the person who works on the exe will be busy with school again.
>>24831074
>stalling translation every goddamn time
This line is so fucking hilarious and irony in this thread.

Is there a site to keep track of your progress other than random 4chan threads once you start working on it?
>>24831106
I guess they could useTumblr
>>24831107
We have the forums and irc chat, and sometimes members of the team post updates to their respective tumblrs about the progress. You're likely to get more information about the patch updates from the forums or chat though.
>>24831131
"The forums" being the Touhou Puppet Play Forums that's linked on the wiki, yeah?
Haven't really gone anywhere other than 4chan for discussion about the game but I can live with checking in on there every once in a while for progress updates.
>>24831074
I thought that you guys just had to copy paste everything in the of the already done translation, and just work in the new added stuff.
Damn.
>>24831152
If seems the expansion will also revamp the main story, hell, on the last stream vid, you can see some vid changes
>Maribel and Renko are gone, replaced by a sleeping Sumireko
>Reimu Oak now appears as soon you arrive to Gensokyo to insult you
also, pretty sure hemo and his team will act more patches after this.
>>24831144
Yeah, the Touhou Puppet Play forums are where we're stationed. There's an entire subforum within the main forums dedicated to the game.
>>24831152
Some of it we can, but considering the story has been massively overhauled, all of that will need to be done from scratch. Very few things can actually be "copy/pasted" over. We can use the old translation as reference, but we can't just copy the files themselves, or in some cases the translation, without caution.
>>24831008
Power is the better option for Sanae since that form gets Lucky, not Speed. Speaking of that, I kinda wanna try Orange. She seems like a fun gimmick with Contrary.
>>24831180
>Reimu Oak
So how much of an asshole/smug prick is she going to be compared to regular Pokemon rivals
>>24831196
Considering she is already very asshole and smug in her canon...
>>24831196
Much, she doesn't even see you as a rival, she sees you as trash on her way.

>>24831273

>>24831275
It's just a gimmick move to guarantee stall for a single turn.
Only having a single use makes it almost entirely useless, I haven't heard of anyone doing anything noticeable with it.
>>24831275
I guess they made that move to make fun of thunder ghost.

Alright, I don't know what the hell is going on.
First, I tried the version that you gave to download. It just shut down itself with "Game data invalid. Please re-install and try again".
>Install, ok, I'll look for the installation pack
Then when I got the ISO and installed it, I updated every patch up to 1.34; but the numbers still looks wrong. I have Japanese as one of the languages in the PC and also AppLocale just in case.
I uninstalled the game and reinstalled but still nothing, then I unistalled this thing for good, trying to play it again from the option here but nope. Nothing works, any ideas?
>>24831626
i literally downloaded game clicked left mouse buton launch in japaneese but whatever you say anon
>>24831626
Applocale won't work for this game, and it's deprecated garbage anyways. Try the OP version with Locale Emulator instead.

You really shouldn't have to dl again but let's just cover everything.

Is SDM the only place with the Patchy doll? Going there every time I want to reincarnated is a hassle.
>>24831773

Yup, doesn't exist anywhere else.
>>24831787
I think they mean the Reincarnation Patchouli Doll, like the PC Akyuu Doll. But as far as we're aware, yes all the same.
Is there a list of all postgame rematches somewhere?
>>24831773
>going through three doors
>a hassle
what
>>24831871
It's certainly less convenient than having one besides every Akyuu doll. I'm too lazy to hag map to SDM every time and from what she said, I thought there were more dolls.
>>24831728
>>24831733
I uninstalled the game that was with the ISO (Yep, with setup and all). Clean any residual data. Then, I changed the language back to the original (Non Jap); restarted, changed it again to Japanese, restarted.
And it just don't works. I guess I just give up, thi
>>24831885
Yeah well it's not like you're reincarnating all the time. Just reincarnate as much as you can every time if it's such a bother for you.

Well shit. "This" just won't work. I can blame my PC either, it should be dead.

>Then, I changed the language back to the original (Non Jap); restarted, changed it again to Japanese, restarted.
This doesn't really involve language packs per say. When you click the circled, a prompt should pop up saying that you need to restart. Going through that process gets your system locale in Japanese.
If you did in fact do all of that, then sorry mate I've no idea. What's your OS?
>>24832225
I did that, I mentioned that just for make clear that I made every step possible, since I already had Japanese as local language the first time I tried.
Its Win10, tried with and without compatibility enabled for W8, W7 and even XP. Nothing worked.
>>24832250

>he uses windows 10

To be clear, this PC is almost dead, W7 was falling appart almost every 10 minutes since even with everything about updates and options disabled, still showed up the thingy to update to Win10.
I had two options
>Keep going and crashing with Win7
>Update and free this poor machine of its mysery.
And somehow it worked, it still crash itself but it can be worked around, since its just every now and then. Well, I guess that's it. Thanks for the help anyway.
>>24832341
>still showed up the thingy to update to Win10
oh, you really were retarded this whole time, if not you got us good.
Oh my.
>>24832395
Man that Yuuka fight was underwhelming as fuck. The inbuilt exp share really makes battles a waste of time if you have a semi regular team.
>>24833148
All it really does is get rid of the bullshit grinding.
>>24833148
It's definitely designed with swapping your team to higher cost puppets throughout the game and is really easy to end up overleveled if you don't.
It was mildly disappointing being overleveled for some key fights on my first playthrough but I still like the mechanic in general, hopefully it gets polished a bit better in the expansion.
Although it does also sound kind of fun to try and actively go out of my way to minimize XP gain without straight up skipping fights.
How does this door work even.
>>24833323expansion
>>24833297
the difficulty absolutely needs some tweaks. I'm near the garden of the sun, and everything after Remi has been a joke.
It's apparent that the game was rushed in my view, so hopefully this will be addressed.
>>24832395
sexy were-teacher. Neat
>>24832457
fucking great costume
This game has some very pretty vistas.
Lastly, I chose Byakuren as my starter, but she's... kinda mediocre. Light is a lousy attacking type. She does get swords dance, 120BP light + 20% dmg with her ability, and 130BP fighting, so she's above average I'd say. But compared to many comparable offensive puppets she's really nothing special. Her stat spread is a bit too middling as well.
>>24833374
Yeah, it feels like there are a lot of things in this that they just didn't quite have the time to do what they really wanted with it and thus that's what the expansion is for.
>koishi sleeps with you

Her move pool is surprisingly shallow.

fug
>>24833576
Ha, that's the same set I'm running. Seems to do the job, though.
And yes, it is. Generally higher cost/BST puppets have more limited movepools it seems.
And neat, first fight to make me think in ages. I've been playing sub-optimally though. Pictured: Ran about to get wrecked. Shouldn't have assumed nature.
This reminds me of Sakuya A dialog with Kagerou in DDC.
and here i thought youkai mountain was long.
Seems like it could be fun.
>>24833740
I tried continue + anatman combo before. Maybe it was just me but my luck is just fucking rotten.
I can finally net battle now but I want to ask; if I enter a battle with normal rules, will dolls under level 50 be brought up to Level 50? I need to know whether or not I can reincarnate without missing out on the fun due to an underleveled team.
>>24833889
I don't believe they are.
But since you do need to earn PP in order to ramp your stats and learn moves, chances are you're not going to be lower than 50 anyway. More so since the majority of puppets absolutely need their level 70 move.
Where can i get best girl?

Final battle
>>24834288
About to go to Eientei
Is Flandre any good? I need fire but Rika isn't really cutting it with her abysmal speed.
>>24834342
She is as good as that abomination of a wallpaper is on my eyes.i.e. okay, since the wallpaper isn't making me vomit my organs out
>>24834342
>that picture
Who thought the world needed this?
>>24834288
Just cleared Bamboo Forest, had to grind a bit for Marisa.
>>24830881
I think focus on assist mons rather than defense mons might do the trick. d mons have good bulk, but to really control the field you need a mons arsenal, and stall is all about controlling the field.

POWER OF MIRACLES
>>24830584
if you like puppets in militery costumes and want to have your own army, try gyokuto as well.
along with rika, youll get yourself militery thamed team.
>>24833754
try that combo on a yoshika- she gets desperate defend, which raises her def on status condition.
>>24834532
Its still RNG bullshit with a 10 sp move. Its gimmicky as hell but I don't think it will really cut it most of the time.
>>24834500
artist did it on purpouse
>>24834117
i once tried to use pretense to change my puppet into dream type.
it failed.

Who do I go to for reincarnations
>>24834573
after you finish the game, reincarnate with patchouli. you should get the reincarnation items before doing so tough.
So just asking, does this game have a decent amount/a lot ofPC-98 characters?
>>24834601
yes. You can even have some characters put on alternate costumes to make them look like they were on PC-98.
>>24834342
anon, WTF is this shit?
I wish /v/ thread is as good as this thread.
I wonder if it's getting better or getting worse.
>>24834712
/v/ is full of touhou elitisms (MUH SECONDARY BOOGIEMAN!) and the boatfag.

See this and dare to tell me is not like pokemon

It also doesn't work with protean.
someone host
>>24834744
It was a pokemon rom hack. They had to make an exe out of it because they wouldn't be able to sell it at comiket if they used pokemon original game files.
This thread is related to /vp/, /v/ and could even be on /jp/. But this is where it got the best reception.
>>24834830
i don't think calling it "pokemon hack" is longer correct because it was built from scratch, is now a game on its own, a touhou fangame with gameplay inspired by pokemon.
>>24834858
It's less "inspired by" and more "lifted entirely from" with a few improvements.
>>24834963
Maybe he was talking about the engine? But then, I dunno how many changes were made to the basic Pokemon one.
>>24834974
They don't use the actual files but I'm pretty sure the calculations are the same. Hell even most of the moves are direct parallels to Pokemon moves.

Wiki is down, don't expect it to be back up for a good long while. In a nutshell, the wiki was still getting hammered with activity to the point where the actual webhost was like "You've used 300 gigs of bandwith in one week, shit's about to explode". We tried to fix it last night but in between the fixes and now we got another 750000 hits to the wiki which completely killed it. We are looking into alternatives to hosting, but if we can't find any, expect the wiki to go on a wikia.
>>24834994
The fuck, was the game that popular online?
>>24834994
Holy shit, I had no idea that many people were playing this.
For those in need of information now, just use this in the interim: http://www.mediafire.com/download/qmffs6x1429z7cu/tpdp+PuppetDex+1.8.xlsx

The statistics we were given show that, on average, the wiki was procesing more connections from similar IPs than unique IPs. The wiki got about 300k visitors a day, but only 5k were unique. This would mean that each user is looking at aproximately 30~60 pages per visit.
We also identified that a good 18% of these numbers were from bots that do absolutely nothing, so we worked on banning those. Ultimately the damage was far too great and this was the equivalent of putting a bandage over a gunshot wound.
It also doesn't help that, apparently, the wiki was getting ddosed somehow while we were looking at statistics - who knows, maybe it was always getting ddosed, I wasn't the one overlooking statistics. The wiki maintainer tried to install hotlink protection or something, but again, it was all too late.
The level curve in this game is terrible. The first few bosses are strong as fuck, then your team is ten lvls higher than everything midgame.
Exp groups seem a lot more noticeable compared to normal pokemon. Hope there's a difficulty option in the expansion.
>>24835031
Guess the people who didn't like the game were more than just very dedicated shitposters. How silly.
>>24835041
Everything you said is true, and will hopefully be fixed in the expansion. If it's any consolation the difficulty apparently returns endgame, though I've yet to see that for myself.
MugetsuP looks fun. Calm mind, good stab, fire blast. Nothing earth-shattering but looks solid.

Your move jerk
>>24834994
Fug. I was just starting to research counters to my waifus, too. Would have gone a long way in lining up a solid team.
>>24834994
>expect the wiki to go on a wikia.
No, God, anything but the shitty theme Wikia forced on the web to pander to smartphone faggots. Wikia died to me in 2010.
>>24835349
Trust me, wikia is the last possible option we want to resort to. We've found some possibilities that could work, but they all require either advertisements or paying for a vpn/dedicated server.
