Beach Life Virtual Resort: Spring Break - Opening and Editing The .BLE Game Files

Image
images taken from the game and from the game manual I have an itch to play Beach Life every now and then. The last time it happened, I found a band-aid solution to guests complaining about high prices. I wanted to make more changes if I could but I couldn't find a way to open and read some of the script files. There are some files in the game that are readable on notepad ( GameParameters.pis and the other . pis files on each scenario and sandscenario folder) but when you try to open up the . ble files, you only see random symbols. I've tried tools that I've seen recommended online ( Game Extractor , Ghidra , Offzip to name a few). Admittedly, I did just glaze over them because I know nothing about reverse engineering a game and didn't know what to do. I have an inkling to play it again recently, and I decided to try an idea that has been looming over my head but have been avoiding.... The GameParameters.pis file had a header containing the file name, and I notice...

Neopets: My New Obsession

Image
my wocky neopet is dying of hunger Update: 11/29/2011 I decided to log in on Neopets so I can get a screenshot for this post when I decided to take a look around and see what's new. There are new maps, more games, and other new features such as Neopets Stock Market  where you can buy and trade stocks (duh?) to earn Neopoints (in game currency). For those people who are still playing Neopets , or are new to Neopets , check out this website . You can consider it a Neopet cheat guide since it has all Neopets Dailies and Neopets Freebies all in one place ( The Daily Neopets ). Very handy in getting free items or in earning neopoints. ________________________________________________________ Neopets is my latest obsession since furushiki and Sims! Oh, I forgot to tell that last week, I became a little bit obsessed with furushiki. Furushiki is a traditional way of wrapping items using a square piece of cloth in Japan. I already know how to do a double bottle wrap, water...

Cheer up with Chona

We went to a resort in Laguna yesterday. But I didn't get to swim. I originally planned on swimming, since we don't really go on vacations often (and we were only going to spend a few hours on the resort). On the way to Laguna, I was reading the book ' The Da Vinci Code ' and ended up spending the rest of the day finishing the book! It was that good! There's a lot of controversy surrounding the book, but I don't see why people have to take it seriously. It's a book. It's fun to read. Get over it. Anyway, my Yahoo Messenger ID got hacked. I was really annoyed so I was looking for funny sites to cheer me up, when I came across this blog ( http://chona.blogspot.com/ ). It's about Chona, a household helper blogging about her day to day experience. It's really funny!

First post!

I don't really know why I keep on making blogs when nobody even cares to visit it. This is my third blog! I'm not good in html or in writing posts but I'd really appreciate it if you guys would bear with me while I'm still finding my footing. I plan to shut down my other blogs and just focus my energy on one, but I'm still deciding on what blog service I'll stick with. Moving on. I'm really addicted to Sims right now, and I'm trying to find skins but one website that has such cute downloads seems to be down ( http://strategyplanet.com ) D:
