Feb. 3rd, 2024 04:36 amFound two blocks of cheese right after starting yesterday's shift, small enough to fit into my coat pockets.
Mom had to pick up a pair of wiper blades, and called me to meet her at checkout after my shift ended. I mentioned my find to her, and even though no one would have noticed before we'd leave the store, she still told me to return them to customer service because I'd still be stealing from the actual buyer in case they were to come back and ask about it, for which I could lose my job if someone looks up any footage or I get caught in the first place.

Those two people I mentioned yesterday are currently working on a mod each of Marenian Tavern Story and The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. The former game's modder, Affonso, confirmed a bug I had long suspected to be even more egregious therethan, pertaining to sales in relation to popularity vs tedium, and sent me a standalone fix to apply to the Windows version that I have gone on to purchase.
Suffice to say, I'm gonna need to put Earthbound on hold just briefly to test his work. It only helps that Skyrum Expert, the person who edited both of my recent videos, is now in charge of that game and has given me some files to look over.
This patch I've received to test led me to figure out how to play the game from scratch, more smoothly than three and a half years ago. That in turn led me to look for ways to reset my jewel counter in all three versions I have, to varying degrees of success:
-I did manage to find some steps on how to clear the data on an Android app. Not everything played out for me to the letter, but the final step requires you to clear all your data. Loading the game anew reveals a count of 0, but the game does offer you 80 for re-purchasing the full version.
-No luck at all with Steam. I went on to ask about that on Reddit, and also asked Affonso if he could find the relevant code. (That, of course, says nothing about Epic Games or any other stores that might have it either now or later.)
-Complete success on the other hand with the Switch, for which I had already cleared the data out for all games a little while ago (mainly to test in advance, but I usually start over anyway on something I haven't played in a while). Redownloading the game had indeed set my jewel count back to an exact 100 (removing the few extras I had obtained before writing it off and then downloading from Google Play).
For what's only gonna be a test run for each iteration of the mod, I guess I should leave my jewels alone altogether while playing the PC version, especially while I figure more stuff out for the walkthrough. However, I have asked Affonso if a mobile mod would require rooting my phone (especially since I also plan to re-enact something specifically on Android for background purposes in my next video).
