On that, I just finished up a Leon A Placement Randomizer and it somehow turned on the Annette flags in the lab way earlier than it should have. I believe it was because I used the MO Disk on the door before activating any of the Annette cutscenes in the Lab. Having William be in random spots really put me on edge! I also was NOT expecting there to be Mr. X in the run!

Where can I find mapping between item location in a log file and actual room?
For example "Placing key item (RedJewel x1) in 204:5". What room is it?

I was curious, can you make a program that allows people to easily change sound effects and bgm? Ive been playing around with your mod to add my own music and dialougue for characters just to mess around, but im curious if you can make one that allows you to swap out SPECIFIC lines and tracks and not have them be random

You can make your own mod very easily just by creating a folder and adding specific files you want to override. This is essential what biorand does. The sound files are .sap, so you will need a program to convert .wav to .sap. If you just want to swap .sap files, that is easy to do.

I really like your randomizer. He is quick to fix bugs, and above all, he has a passion for introducing new functions one after another.
It seems that some people have noticed this problem since it was first introduced, but there is a phenomenon that when you select an item while using English, the options are in Japanese.
Due to the bug fix for Alyssa and Regina in this update, only these two seem to be cured in English.
One last suggestion, I think it would be interesting if we could set the ratio of enemies that appear in more detail, just like items.

The text in the inventory screen is probably stored in the .TIM file that is overridden for each character. I will see if the creators can use the English version.

Thank you for making the shotgun available for claire!
But hey, the character you call "Regina" it's not really her. It's just Jill cosplaying Regina from RE3. :))))
I really love Regina, so it would be great if one day you can actually bring her model from Dino crisis into the mod. :D

Probably fixed in 2.1.7. I fixed an issue where it thought you did not need 003 key to enter plant 42 room.

For some reason its giving me a random "can not access file because its being used by another process" the strange thing is it seems to be a random .sap file that the app is claiming is being used by another process, but using a older version (v2.0.3) works just fine.

From the last 3 runs the files its having issues with are main23.sap / main11.sap / main34.sap

I have both RE1 and RE2 installed with the Rebirth patches. and have tried both running the app with and without admin permissions, also my RE2 folder isn't set to read only.

any suggestions?

Also is there any way to get the app to remember the directories you set? its a little annoying to have to dig in my file folder to reinput them every time i run the app.

nope, nothings running save for my internet browser on a seperate monitor which shouldn't effect anything. and the older 2.0.3 works fine, just the later versions just wont seem to behave.

You might need to remove your %APPDATA%/biorand folder to resolve the settings issue.

Thanks for the reply, i deleted the biorand folder in my app data and no dice, still getting the same issue. have tried doing a completely fresh install of biohazard 2 (with the REbirth patch as the only mod installed) and its giving me the same issue (cant access main23.sap but it changes the file its having issues with each new seed)

also dunno if its just me, but i downloaded the update that dropped a few hours ago and when i tried running it malwarebytes threw up a warning and tossed the EXE into quarantine.

claimed the file was suspect with machinelearning-anomalous-100% as the details. not sure if its just because its a recent release, a false positive, or the download from github is infected with something (unlikely i know) just wanted to give you a heads up (perhaps a overly aggressive antivirus might explain my issues. im going to set up a virtual machine over the weekend and see if it works on that with a totally clean install for everything)

Whenever I have asked for more information about the settings issue, people say that it magically fixes itself. I have never been able to reproduce it myself to find how why it happens.

There is not much I can do about the malware detection. You can try uploading it to virustotal to test it against other checkers.

On the virus detection front I know you can't do much about it. Just wanted to give you a heads up.

Honestly I think I'll go back to the other rando. Sure I did enjoy the features of yours. But when it only works under very specific circumstances, its not worth the headache.

Ill wait a few revisions then come back to it to see if anythings changed.

Thanks for the assistance regardless, just unfortunate that I didn't have any luck with fixing it.
