Yeah, I know there's a byte multiplied by level that determines EXP, but I don't recall whether it's the rarity byte. You can get an idea of how that works though by looking at the existing data. Lugia has a mere 3 while Magikarp has some huge value (maybe 0xFF). I think zero makes them impossible to catch, at least, I had no success catching a level zero sleeping Magikarp at 1 HP with Ultra Balls when it was set to zero.

Lol, so the majority of PS3 customers were just Chinese guys buying them to sell later? The article at first makes it sound like Sony hired them to create hype, but further on it clarifies.

That's the problem (at least, one of them) with DRM, not with Zune. The problem people thought there would be with Zune was adding DRM to every file it gets.

drwtsn32 shouldn't be causing errors since it should only be opening when a program has crashed. However I have had cases while writing a program where it'd crash and drwstn32 would just open up and hang, forcing me to kill the entire process tree.

Posted on 11-16-06 02:31 AM, in Pokémon G/S question about wild Pokémon Link
I just did a quick test with the old VB Hack-O-Matic (the last version that a Pokémon stat editor is implemented in). It's labelled Base EXP there. I poked at Pidgey's value (default 55) and beat some up on Route 29 with my level 5 Cyndaquil.

LevelValueEXP
210
210028
45028
25014
220057


Obviously, 2 x 100 != 28, so there must be some other factor here. Possibly something like level x (base EXP / some number) = EXP. Note that 28 x 2 = 56, but doubling the value gave 57, so there must be some decimals at work here. Notice 200 / 7 = ~28.6. Possible that the low 3 bits of this value do something else. Also, 200 / 28 is an interesting number.

[edit] B0rked table.

[edit 2] The others add up. EXP = (Level * BaseEXP) / 7. Obviously the game drops decimals since the Game Boy has no FPU and runs at 4mhz.

Posted on 11-16-06 10:12 AM, in What use for a computer with a broken disk controller? Link
I wish it were that easy. Memtest86 ran 17 hours without reporting any errors. Changing cables and drives didn't help. The sound card isn't PCI, just some audio/joystick connectors that plug into the mainboard.

Shoot, scratch that. It was the other computer whose RAM tested OK. I started Memtest86 on this one shortly before submitting this post and it spat out a load of errors right away. I'm in a hurry though so I'm just gonna shut it off, submit the post as-is and go to work.

The specific problem is read/write errors. If I try to copy a CD to any hard drive (using a DVD drive I know works great) it copies very, very slowly. Copying the I386 directory on a WinXP SP2 setup disc had taken nearly 11 hours before I stopped it! (This was with both HD and DVD-ROM on the same cable though, which supposedly degrades performance.) Windows XP setup will get to where I choose a drive, and prompt me to format the partition. If I choose to do so, about half the time it quits at 20% (NTFS quick format) stating the disk is damaged. Either way, shortly after formatting (or choosing a partition if I don't format) I get random BSODs - BAD_POOL_CALLER, REGISTRY_ERROR, etc. No apparent pattern to them.

I also have a second computer which I managed to squeeze XP into, and it's working nice except for one bug. I put in a PCI Ethernet controller (tried 3 of them) and it won't connect. Usually it says a cable is unplugged, while the LEDs on the card and router disagree. Sometimes it tries to connect, fails to get an IP address, and then says it's unplugged. The same cable worked great on my laptop. Of the three NICs I tried, one was from my main computer which works, and one was already in that computer and used to work great with Win98. Any ideas with this one? I suspect a dead PCI controller. I only have a sound card and TV tuner card to test it with. XP doesn't see the sound card at all (possibly because it's an old one, like PCI but bigger) and claims it has no drivers for the TV tuner which I'd believe.



[edit] Yep, it was RAM alright. I yoinked one of the two RAM sticks to test the other. Shoulda seen the pretty colours and funny characters Memtest86 spat out just trying to boot up. Switched it for the other and it tested and installed just fine. I even found two more bringing it back up to 192MB, compared to the 256MB it would have if the second stick worked, pretty good I'd say. XP runs nicely on it, the video card is SSSSSLLLLOOOOOWWWW but hopefully I can get the PCI one working which is a bit newer.

The built-in sound card isn't working well though. (I gave up on the ISA card which Windows still won't see, given that the latest drivers are for Windows 3.1 and require signing up for 489657436587435 mailing lists to get, though I got it to make some interesting and very loud noises. ) It's a C-Media CM8330 or something along those lines. No mention of it in the BIOS but it's there. It plays sound, but there's major distortion. It crackles as if the buffer weren't big enough. Playing with settings I got it to be a bit less noticeable but that just added a weird mechanical echo effect and disabled the volume control. It's as if the system's just not fast enough to keep up, but CPU usage only gets to ~60%, and this happens even with the WAV files Windows plays when message boxes pop up and such. The biggest tihing I noticed was when I have Task Manager open, it crackles quite loud every time the window updates, in addition to the constant crackling in the background. Also, for some reason it can't be muted.
I couldn't find any WinXP drivers so I had to use Win2K ones instead. Win98 ones also exist but it won't install them.

Another minor problem I noted is it can't find my laptop by name on the LAN, but DNS works and it can find it by IP.

Also, yay Zoltrix for having such a nice website offering drivers, hints and related programs even for ancient hardware. And boo C-Media for making people sign up for spam lists (enjoy your spam, admin@127.0.0.1) just to see if drivers are available.
