• Hey everyone happy Christmas Eve we're aware of what's happened with the source code so to keep this simple absolutely don't post it on the site or use it to make mods with (it's not particularly preferable toward this end anyway) and tread lightly in general until we see how this settles, thanks to all and have a great holiday season -DT

As far as I know, distributing the source files is a big no-no, but mods and builds on their own should be less of a legal problem? It's still entirely up in the air as to what happens, but my mod hasn't been taken down yet, and at this point I think builds and mods should be fine.
I'll keep that mind, then.
Thanks

I fucking hate how it's taking so long for NICALIS to respond to the developers of CSE2.

I already know the trick behind their sleeves, they're just gonna fuck the devs over.

It is really easy to get something taken down as a big company but putting it back up is so slow.

Apologies for the necropost, but has there been any new news as of late concerning CSE2?
It seems like Nicalis just pulled a Nicalis and nothing more has come out of it.
By changing one value in CommonDefines.h, you can make the screen not just wider, but taller

Also, short question: what value does that happen to be?

To put it simply: don't get your hopes up. I can't say much more than that.

It's a real shame that Pixel chose to license the game's source to such a greedy company. I hope Nicalis changes, but knowing from experience, I'm not counting on it.

Nicalis: Pixel we would like to put your game on Wii
Pixel: O K
Nicalis: sign this not suspicious contract the takes a games source code.
*Pixel Signs the contract*
Nicalis: makes 5 ports and a PC remaster.
*NXengine exists*
Nicalis: L E G A L
*CSE2 Exists*
Nicalis: time to screw some devs over.
I don't understand why a company would ruin such a cool thing like CSE2 (I think I never got to try it).
