Digimon World | Glitch | How to bypass the PAL Bug

[@Geta92]

Sorry for the re-upload but these kind of glitches are very dangerous if anything goes wrong and I don't want anyone to destroy their save file because of me. It turns out that the price of glitch items can differ between different language versions, hence why I had to change the instructions from the previous upload. This adjusted setup only requires buying a single glitch item. You might have to buy Digipines in different combinations than me, but as long as you buy 255 in total it doesn't matter and the glitch should work without breaking any other events in the game. Make sure to write me in case you still have any issues. I want these instruction videos to be as safe as possible.

@Geta92 ok! That's why my comments disappeared! 😅

Man, this'd have been so useful to me 20 years ago... I spent countless hours roaming the island without a clue that the game was actually impossible to beat.

[@Hodyna]

It's really sad and puzzling that they messed up the non-English PAL versions with that bug (how did they MISSED IT?! ...and why it's not present in the the English PAL? Different builds?). I still remember when after getting a legit German copy I got screwed by not able to do the Ogremon's plotline. So much content is locked behind Ogremon's plotline and in those versions you just can't do anything with it... Luckily, someone put a video about that Back Dimension walkaround, which enables you to get to Ogremon without interacting with the (broken) Agumon guard. It's funny that game allows you to get to Back Dimension through the Ogremon's Fortress, even if you've never been there before.

[@Chris-re3lv]

Yeah, and the American release has the Ogremon content as intended, but we get a glitched Giromon Jukebox. No ability to actually use the thing without the game automatically freezing up. I think it's something to do with the text on the list of music that causes the lock, but I forget. So, I think basically every version of DW1 is glitched in different areas.

[@Hodyna]

@@Chris-re3lv You're right - Jukebox is glitched because text displaying issue (or something associated with song names? Don't remember exactly). In NTSC version there are also various text displaying issues (and some dialogues are messed up - like missing lines when Myotismon tells you about his research) and that "MP Reduction Bonus" freeze when your Digimon receives enough Brains as a result of fight that he crosses 700, 800 or 900 threshold. PAL UK seems to be the LEAST obviously glitchy (and has a working Jukebox!)... but that 20% slower gameplay will REALLY add up (just loadings are 1 second longer). ...also, there's a chance that the game will freeze when you finish a tournament so... I envy the American players. Jukebox is an acceptable sacrifice.

[@Geta92]

I assume the PAL versions are all based on the same build. Maybe the teams were given an early build of the english PAL version and this version already contained the bug, so it was just copy-pasted. I assume the english version team noticed the error and fixed it for their productive release but didn't tell the other translation teams. Just a theory though.

[@ZidaneTribal93]

@@Geta92 What jerks don't tell their colleagues about errors?

[@Geta92]

I doubt the different translations teams worked together at all.

[@Chris-re3lv]

Very good. I do wish that the developers of this game had just a little more time to spare on the game. We might have seen more stability. I play the NTSC version, and it sure would have been nice to play the Giromon Jukebox without locking the game up. Seems that there is at least one game breaking glitch per locale version of this game.

[@BlackLevant]

man i recently started to play digimon world 1 again and stumbled across your channel. awesome stuff. helped me a lot! keep it up! :)

[@LordGabrielG]

Love how there is always some contend of this game

[@garrykaspari2588]

Thank you Geta, you care and never dissapoint ❤

[@valentinriedel7301]

really impressive, great content!

[@GaidenDS10]

Also Ogremon: “NOW WAIT A MIN!?”

[@clebermuniz1904]

Fantastic, Geta92!

[@proyco0673]

It really worked, somehow I got MAX money out of it 😅 Thanks, so I can continue playing my German game.👍

[@AdrianoTortora_]

I always thought the PAL version's spelling was beautiful. I was upset when I discovered that it has so many glitches. Not that the NTSC version doesn't have them, but the ones in the PAL version prevent progress in the game.

[@Struanstream]

You are a wizard. How do you even find this? I didn’t even know digipine could be sold at recycled shop

[@Geta92]

It can't. The game saves memory by using specific sections for multiple purposes. The cards render their visual data in the same space that the shops load their items in. If you can open a shop that is empty, the shop will not update this data and read whatever is already written to it. In that case, it is the card visuals. If you can find a card which has data that corresponds to the same numerical value as the item you want, you can force the shop to sell any item you want, including glitch items that aren't normally obtainable.

[@Struanstream]

@@Geta92 nanimon corresponds with digipine? Do you know every card correspondence?

[@Geta92]

@@Struanstream Each card adds 254 items to the shop. A lot of them are invalid and cannot be bought, but you still usually have around 100 buyable items. Digipine is one of the items you get with Nanimon, yes. I don't have a full list, but I have a tool that shows me the content live so I can check if a cards contains the item I want or not.

[@sasorimop3485]

This is pretty cool! What about the Mt Infinity bug?

[@Geta92]

Nothing useful yet. The Agumon Bug can be bypassed by overwriting triggers, but the Mt. Infinity issue is caused by incorrect map data disabling the warp. You would have to find a wrong warp into one map further inside the dungeon to bypass the bug. The only alternative I know is to just set Machinedramon as defeated and Devimon, MetalGreymon, Megadramon and Digitamamon as recruited. You still wouldn't be able to go through the area normally though.

[@ImmortalDraylo]

After revisiting this game for the 500th time, I decided to try and speed it up to complete it faster. I'm finding it a lot harder to get digimon to Ultimate than normal because of it. They also seem to have much less time to get to the bathroom or their hapiness/discipline sharply decline as im running to rest etc. Is a speed up just making it too hard because of the clock or what happens I wonder?

[@PianoFortePresto]

Hey! How many bits do I need for this trick?

[@Morgan-vo7pp]

That trick seems so far-fetched ! Anyway I want to try it but I'm stuck at the first part : I managed to get an item stolen, but the guy tells me he has nothing to sell me back. Does it take some time for it to show up in the shop ?

[@Geta92]

The recycle item shop only offers rare items. If you get common items stolen, they just get deleted. A good item to use is restore, it's the cheapest "rare" item.

[@Morgan-vo7pp]

​@@Geta92Alright thanks for the quick response, I'll try this right now. Poor MetalGreymon took a useless death for the cause.

[@Morgan-vo7pp]

​@@Geta92Holy cow, I can't believe it worked ! I had to try several times to get the right item to show up in the "empty shop" though (probably because you must not engage any fight or pick mushrooms between Volume Villa and the shop, idk I'm no glitch wizard) but it worked ! Thanks mate ❤

[@Flacky1402]

Does it works on normal psx pal version Or only on emulator

[@Geta92]

It works on real hardware, otherwise this would be pointless. You can just patch the game on PC.

[@Flacky1402]

Why can i buy only 99 digipines not 255

[@N40AX]

It also makes you skip a lot of battles
