Text patchs, custom words.tok for GBAGI!!!

[GrimlocK]

For my fellow GBAGI fans,

   I have reworked the "words.tok" file on a number of games so that game play can be much more enjoyable on the Game Boy Advanced.   As all GBAGI players know, the word selection availability has been one of the largest complaints.   Some words for one reason or another such as "gold nut" (kq1) and "bank statement" (Goldrush) failed to work properly at all.

What I have done is sort through the "words.tok" files for each game, remove all spaces (such as in "gold nut" and "bank statement") and select the most appropriate word in each group.   In addition some of the word groups contain two or more words needed to complete the game, what I did in that event is simply combine the required words to one word (examples: "enter" and "exit" becomes "enterexit" in gbagi or "pour" and "remove" becomes "pourremove" or "pourorremove" in gbagi.   Spacing is removed also: "look into" becomes "lookinto", this avoids errors such as the above mentioned "gold nut" and "bank statement".)

The following is a list of all the commercial and custom AGI games that I have created custom "words.tok" files for.   At the moment I have no way of putting them up on a site for download but if anyone is interested in one email me and I will send it to you along with instructions on how to use it (just backup old "words.tok" and replace with new)

If anyone knows how to add a menu to an AGI game (so I can create a patch that will add function keys, esc, tab in the menu for certian games) let me know and I'll make something for PQ1 (for the siren)

As I said, if anyone would like a specific words.tok please request it via email. (put the game title in the email title)

Also if anyone knows of any more fan created AGI games that I should look into please let me know.

Please give him any feedback on them that you possibly can. Such as bugs and improvments.

Naturette 1 is already ported on Gameboy Advance under the name Naturette Advance.

Not only word.tok was modified but some rooms was modified as well to fit better on GBA's screen.

You'll find it at:

Enjoy

Are there any updates to this? Or does someone have a compatibility list for gbagi?

With the words.tok in the link I can't grab the astral body cartridge.

With the original one I can't close the door to the shuttle.

Very frustrating, these games are so close to being perfect on the gameboy.

This is a very old thread, but does anyone have a Words.TOK file for SQ0 for use with GBAGI?
