Title: Crimson Echoes Demo 2.0!
Post by: ZeaLitY on May 19, 2006, 04:38:32 pm
Bet you weren't expecting this one! The Chrono Trigger: Crimson Echoes project is releasing its second demo! Three chapters of the game are now playable (versus the simple prologue of the last game), featuring new areas, scenes, events, characters and story as the rich world of Crimson Echoes unfolds. Nearly every era is accessible, and a host of other surprises await. I'm really reluctant to reveal much more, as you must experience it for yourself! At a minimum, the demo will last 30-40 minutes; at maximum, if you talk to all the NPCs and immerse yourself in the world of the game, it can last up to 3 hours or more. This is truly a new Chrono Trigger adventure; if you'd like to follow the team on another mission through time, jack in and download the patch! The instructions for playing are in the Readme. Below are screenshots (click to view) and the link to the patch and feedback thread. Stay tuned for an interview in a couple weeks.

SO YAH! I LUVIN IT!

Ah, but where is the Magus statue? Some museum, no doubt?

Post by: Legend of the Past on May 28, 2006, 01:21:11 pm
Seeing as Magus has a black spot in Guardia, it would make sense that a statue praising him woulden't be found in GUARDIA's Square.

Sup Niggas! Ummm how do  I say this ummm My mom puts parental controls

"WEB RESTRICTED" If someone could E-mail it to me or do some magic tricks and make
it not restricted i would be so happy ok cos i really liked the first demo! Thanks in advance

I don't know if someone who can't even speak proper english, can be able to uphold the responsibillity of playing a game with such magnitude like CE. So if your mother says you cant i'm am with the mom. Here Here!

Oh ok. Thanks alot "buddy". It's not so much as my mom says
I can't play this game it's the fact that parental controls are going a little
too far these days. And well really I do sort of understand why you
wouldn't want me to play this game. Chrono Trigger is my life. I loved this game ever
since I was 6 and well if you don't think I am worthy enough to play
the second version of Crimson Echoes well I am sorry I wasted your
time. When I typed that first message I was a little mad because I hate
parental controls. And well I am only 15 and I act a little stupid sometimes
but hey that's just me.

hey, I liked the first demo, and just downloaded this second one... but there's trouble brewing. See, if I try to enter the Elder's house or Inn of Medina or Melchior's Hut, the screen blacks out for some reason, and I can't give the card to the person. why is this?
Title: Re: Crimson Echoes Demo 2.0!
Post by: Agent 12 on July 01, 2006, 12:24:59 pm
Make sure that you are using the right patch on a completely unaltered CT Rom.  I don't think it's  a problem with coding cause noone else reported and and lots of people gave them the card.

I patched mine to a fresh CT rom and in the part where you play as magus and you're in the place behind the mountain I get to the color on the walls part and when i got it right I saw what the room looked like as I was going in it and then it sent me down the hole to start  over again and I can't do anything past that part

ClayMake I'm not sure what riddle your on but if you go the the hole room it means your not going through the right door.  There' two tricky riddles.....one where you have to walk through the north wall, the other where you activate the statue in the room.

If none of those are the ones your stuck on feel free to post being more specific about what the page in the room says.

I'm on the last riddle but when I get it right I get a glimpse of the room I go in next and all of a sudden it shows up as the room you fall in that hole. I think mine is messed up.

No, you patch the game(.src) not the saves(.srm for the "normal" ones, or zs0-9).
Rename the .srm and start ng+.

Hi guys I loved the first demo just got the second one and found a glitch, its after the first beast fight with magus in the beast forest, Ive used TF before and it looks to me like you forgot to set the scroll.

At the end of this demo, if you leave the area and fight your way down to the end, you can trigger an event to take yourself more into what was left in the demo, just head all the way back up and have fun ^^. If this is no secret just slap me. XD

You must return to Belthasar's place. Retrieve the Epoch in the Cathedral back room (Lucca will tell you how).

 :shock:
Title: Re: Crimson Echoes Demo 2.0!
Post by: nightmare975 on February 27, 2007, 12:20:16 am
It's non accessible. Becuase of what takes place there(Kino's death), we are unable to allow you to enter the area. I think that's right.
Title: Re: Crimson Echoes Demo 2.0!

Title: Re: Crimson Echoes Demo 2.0!
Post by: Chrono'99 on February 27, 2007, 01:27:19 pm
You're supposed to search for Ayla. A villager in the prehistoric village tells you she went to Singing Mountain, which is east of the Dactyl's Nest accross the ocean (you can go there with the Epoch or by foot).

 :? :? :? :?I'm at the part where you go into the Singing Mountain to find Ayla, but whenever I get sent back to her hut, the epoch is all the way over at the singing mountain!  How do I get to the Epoch?  I tried climbing the Dactyl nest, but when I got to the top, the game froze, and likewise with the Mystic Mountain (where Crono first came into 65 mil. BC).    :? :? :? :?

Thanks for the help!

A little thing I noticed in Glenn's speech through the game that has been shown so far...  It's not really in his character to talk regularly... what happened to all the 'thine's and 'shall' and other fancy lingo?  Just a little tip for the full version....

Actually, it's not in his character to talk like he did in the American version of CT. That was a poor Woosley edit.

Moreover, only Frog spoke like that. Human Glenn spoke perfectly normally, whether in the flashbacks or in the no-Magus endings.

I don't know if it was a "poor" choice on Woosley's part, I mean, a lot of people like Frog's stupid accent...though if it somehow spawned the butchery in CC, then I'll gladly say that I DO hate him...But, anyways, Frog talking like that is basically just another cliché topping on the cake.

Frog's accent wouldn't be such a problem if everyone from 600 AD spoke like him, which would have been a nice touch actually.
Title: Re: Crimson Echoes Demo 2.0!
Post by: Boo the Gentleman Caller on February 14, 2008, 12:12:30 pm
please understand that this isn't a knock against frog-speak, but...

it would've been nice had he not gone back and forth between shakespearean-speak and modern-speak.

please note, that wasn't a complaint.  i never even noticed it until seeing it here on the forums.  but once i was informed of it... i def. noticed it.

It would've been nice and probably more consistent...    :|

But then again, who said Chrono Trigger was a consistent game. (at *very* least in the NA version.) It tends to leave a lot of things unexplained and, as such, things such as realism, consistency, and purpose are usually up for a *lot* of interpretation (explanations such as entities, dumb luck, and lack of oversight usually arise.).
But, hey everything works out in the end and thats all that really matters, right?  :wink:
