SHENMUE II NOTEBOOK v1.2 by Julian McKenzie http://www.hostultra.com/~shenmuelegend shenmuelegend@btopenworld.com ____________ Introduction ____________ This is a version of the Ryo's notebook as it appears in ShenmueII. The aim of this is to present a complete document of the notebook that appears in the English version of Shenmue II. This is also available in Word format, in which it is much easier to read, and can be downloaded from my site at http://www.hostultra.com/~shenmuelegend/notebook2.zip Every page in the notebook can hold five lines of text, differing from the previous games eight as there are larger gaps between lines. ==== denotes a page break, where you turn over the page. ---- denotes a page break, where you are moving to the other side of the page. You can still get clues from fortune tellers but as there are a number of them in the game, they appear as "*name of teller" in the notebook. The Shenmue II notebook has 275 pages cover to cover (note: you can't view the back cover) and is divided into five sections: page 4: Yokosuka page 12: Hong Kong page 132: Kowloon page 216: Guilin page 236: Money Information Note that the money conversation on page 11 is for the default game if you do not load in a cleared file and also that an @ sign is used to show when a Chinese symbol appears. If you have got any more notes from Shenmue II, please let me know. My email address is shenmuelegend@btopenworld.com If you do so, can you please copy the notes exactly as they are in the game so that the notebook is an exact copy. My website also holds a version of the notebook from Shenmue I.
