Ys II Special - The Forgotten Ys Game!

[FM-77AV]

You'll need to push the ALT button after the Mantra/Falcom logo. That will take you to the title screen.

Weird.

It looks as if Adol was modeled off of the main character from Soul Blazer, just by looking at him.

But I'll try to play this, if I can get it.

AHHHH no the site has been hacked!!!! i wanted to find out about this game!!!

[FM-77AV]

Hehehe, I changed the directory when I uploaded the new Ancient Land of Ys website.

I've fixed the link, it works now.

[phoremat1]

THANKS

[DoubleD64]

Well, I think my patience has paid off!

I finally managed to get my password so now I'm gonna give this baby a good workout!

[DoubleD64]

OK, I'm now getting an error :"Memory Allocate Error!"

Does anyone know how to fix that?

[FM-77AV]

Hmm, I used to get that error too. But I don't remember how I solved it. Hmm, hmm.... Are you using DOSbox/D-Fend?

[DoubleD64]

I'm using Windows 98 Second Edition for this game, for the time being.

[ALUCARD_LIWE]

It looks interesting! But I want to know if it was made by Falcom or Ys players or other companies in Korean?

I liked the fifth picture with the girl in the bed *wink wink*

It was made by a Korean company that goes by the name of MANTRA. They were also responsible for localizing and releasing couple of Japanese titles in Korea. Nowdays the company doesn't exist anymore. They went bankrupt shortly after the release of Ys ETERNAL.

You know, if you were happening to pay a little bit more attention you would've known this already (this thread, the link in the first page). Anyway, you're welcome.

Thank you! I just don't believe Falcom would let a Korean company make a SPECIAL version.

Hey can anyone get me a dump on all the text in the game. If there isnt that much to sift through im sure i can ask this korean guy at my work to translate the game. He is learning english right now and he is really good at it. Im sure he will say yes...when he is done ill type the whole thing out and you computer gurus can add the english text in...what do you think?

[FM-77AV]

I know a couple of Korean people as well, but I don't know of anybody who would be willing to attempt to dump the script, etc.

Also, nobody knows about this game, so I don't think a possible translation would be "worth it." It also seems that most people can't even get the game running!

Another thing -- the game's extremely buggy. Playing through it is not possible (it crashes at several points in the game) (at least, not unless you're running the game on a REAL DOS-system). And I'm not sure if it's possible to finish it then either. But it has to be possible to get through it somehow, hehe.

[DoubleD64]

Thankfully, I do have a Windows 3.1 Laptop lying around.

I'll try it out on that for it to work.

[DoubleD64]

Right now, I just need to get it to work thoroughly as well.
Other than that, I finally got it run on my PC.

[superlocke]

wow... I come back after a while and find THIS?
nice one, Seldane!

damn... too bad I don't have access to the downloads section... and also - ... COUNTinue? >_>;

[FM-77AV]

Yep. "Countinue"

It's pretty amusing.

[superlocke]

heh..makes me wonder if there's a Ys 1 special.... >.>
