BOWSERS INSIDE STORY - Dr Toadley Microphone Issue

So i used multiple wav files with different results during my playthrough of Bowsers Inside Story with different results but could get through the game alright, Giant Bowser fights were easy enough using the mic to breathe fire.

The problem is after one of the Giant boss fights you meet with Dr Toadley for the last Star Cure and he asks to gently exhale into a meter for sky travel. I used all different mic wav samples but none seemed to work.
Is it an issue with the game or has other people had this issue?

I've never heard this problem before. I can't find a mention of blowing or sky travel at this point in the game in a walkthrough or a longplay.

Re: BOWSERS INSIDE STORY - Dr Toadley Microphone Issue

I didn't think i'd have an issue considering everything worked up to now. I used samples that gave Good!s and Excellent!s so I assumed this would be like long gentle and strong blows.

I had to check again for the order of events in the story but the link should show the part i'm on about.

Re: BOWSERS INSIDE STORY - Dr Toadley Microphone Issue

I searched for a BUNCH of different wav files and Youtube and other places didnt seem to have an answer but i think i finally have an audio sample that works for me.

Its weird considering why this was the only mic prompt not working

If anyone else has the same issue i put a link to download the wav file. (Its like a loud-ish beep that seemed to work)

http://www0.cs.ucl.ac.uk/teaching/GZ05/ … ant256.wav  <- this is for the small Dr Toadley mic prompt section, but unsure if this could work well in the Giant Bowser boss fights.

Re: BOWSERS INSIDE STORY - Dr Toadley Microphone Issue

Thanks for your deep research. I'll add that to the mic samples pack. If you want to provide any other notes about which samples work for which purpose, I'll put that in the pack too. Perhaps we'll promote the sample pack to a more featured placement; perhaps even incorporate it in the desmume distributions. What do you think?

Re: BOWSERS INSIDE STORY - Dr Toadley Microphone Issue

It would be good to help with similar issues that i had with the microphone!

I have a couple of samples here, >>>>don't know if these links work for downloading though, ill see if i can find a way if this method doesn't work.<<<<

These two work for me and both should be good for mic prompts in games in general.

>>> file:///C:/Users/charl/Downloads/DS%20MIC%20BLOW%201.wav

>>> file:///C:/Users/charl/Downloads/DS%20MIC%20BLOW%202.wav

This one's was used in my play-through of Bowser's Inside Story because the other two only give off Good!s and Great!s but are just good samples overall.
I jokingly thought this wouldn't work considering the audio of the sample is just some guy doing a long cheesy evil laugh. But i could get Excellent!s perfectly everytime so its actually very good for the Giant Bowser boss fights.

>>> file:///C:/Users/charl/Downloads/pcm0822m.wav

But the trick to getting it perfect is to press your microphone hotkey and HOLDING it in as soon as Bowser just finishes "building up" firepower

Those links don't work. Try some other file upload / locker site.

Re: BOWSERS INSIDE STORY - Dr Toadley Microphone Issue

I think its ok if i just used Google Drive for this.

Audio is quite loud too so volume warning!

SAMPLE 1>>>  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QGJYM3 … sp=sharing

SAMPLE 2>>>  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YJNTNI … sp=sharing

SAMPLE 3 >>>  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SEXJvy … sp=sharing

Hopefully this works!
