Xbox One Controller Disconnected Screen#

When you disconnect your controller in the True Lab in the Xbox One version, this unsettling message is shown. Unfortunately, everything after the 7th sentence is cut off in-game. Curiously, "no heart is connected" is repeated twice.

True Lab Entry Number 17#

Alphys' entry number 17 is skipped in the True Lab, but is found in the code. Alphys instead explains this at the end of the area. This is coded to appear in the DT Extraction Machine room, but is overwritten by the text saying that the machine is inactive. W.D. Gaster has his own entry 17, which can be seen in room_gaster. Removed by version 1.001-4 (1.05 on PC).

 * ENTRY NUMBER 17

 * monsters' physical forms
  can't handle "determination"
  like humans' can.

 * with too much determination,
  our bodies begin to break
  down.

 * everyone's melted together...

Early Entry Turned Off Text#

An early version of the text shown when interacting with entries 8 and 18 before they get turned on that exists in every other entry dialogue. It's strangely set to be shown when the flag that allows entries 8 and 18 to be read is enabled.

English

Japanese

 * (It seems to be turned off.)

 * (でんげんが
  きれているようだ)

Battle#

Endogeny#

Unused flavor text from Endogeny's battle, set to appear when the mycommand variable is between 45 to 89; however, that variable is set to 90 if it is less than or equal to 50 and 0 if it is greater than 50, meaning this can never be seen. The text is an edited version of one of Greater Dog's flavor texts, that being "Greater Dog is waiting for your command."

English

Japanese

 * Amalgamate is waiting for
  your command.

 * アマルガムは ごしゅじんさまの
  めいれいを まっている。

English

Japanese

Snowdrake's Mother#

Flavor text that's intended to show when Snowdrake's mother is spareable; however, the fight automatically ends by that point, causing it to not be shown.

English

Japanese

 * Seems calmed down.

 * おちついたようだ。
