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....

NASA Discovers Stars as Cool as the Human Body

While I don't usually post anything like this, as a fan of science fiction this article from NASA really caught my eye. Plus, I've always had a thing for stars :]

From the data gathered on NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), scientists have discovered the coldest class of stars. They are so cool in fact, that some of the them have about the same temperature as the human body (the coolest one is 25 degrees Celsius). They are members of the brown dwarf family, and are sometimes called 'failed stars' because they are too low in mass to fuse atoms at their cores and thus don't burn with the fires. They just remain cool and eventually fade with time, until what little light they do emit is at infrared wavelengths.

For more information about these brown dwarf stars, read the full article here on NASA's website.
