bailu village

hey fellow modders
just wanderin if bailu village is accesible with the dc version of shenmue 2 and if yes how?

[kakuzawa]

...was it accessible in Xbox at all?

[Panda_rapist]

i have no idea at all

[Panda_rapist]

while looking it up on google i got redirected to shenmue dojo and to my surprise i found out that lan dc discovered these with his modded xbox

maybe if we dig hard enougth we could find these locations who knows

[kakuzawa]

If i remember correctly -> only things they found are these loading screens...

[Panda_rapist]

how mutch of the disks did they explore? do you know if theres still things to be discovered?

[kakuzawa]

They explore dvd approx. 7 years ago.
I'm here less than a year... I was able to 'revisit' some of the modifications from that period, also was able to mod something on my own... there is always something to 'check-out', yet I don't think there are left any other maps to explore...

[Panda_rapist]

i see, i guess the only way of knowing if there really is anything hidden is succeeding in extracting directly from the disk

[kakuzawa]

While we discuss unused stuff, remember the picture:

Controls (taken from xbox, but I think dc version contains the same 'set')

^ I was just about to mention that picture, the area is there and explorable it's just a matter of finding it, and thanks Gboy I was also going to ask this question but you've done it for me, much respect

EDIT:
Check these

I think the 2 first pics are from ShenHua father's house and third was not from xbox or Dreamcast but some pics of Shenmue 3.

Oh shitttt so Shenmue 3 was actually in development? lol The way they talked about it I always got the impression that they were either getting the story down or "Thinking about" developing it, wow whoever owns that development copy of Shenmue 3 is a don.

as far as I know, originally shenmue 1 was supposed to be what we have as shenmue 1 + 2, just that they ended up expanding the first chapter, and saving the rest for chapter 2.

Since the whole series was planned out to span multiple games, they probably were working on a few chapters past 6 when guilin happens, but then they had to cut them out as they were finishing up shenmue 2 and save it for the sequel.

Though obviously what happened was that the Dreamcast failed and Shenmue 2 sold poorly, so most likely development never got very far on Shenmue 3.

Agreed, I believe the Shenmue Saturn version was meant to encompass both 1+2 which you are referring to. But the Saturn failed as did the Dreamcast as you have rightly stated. It would be crazy to get a hold of that incomplete number 3 and walk around Bailu village.

well if that did happen it would be a helluva leak, but we can only dream
