NOCD.SI

Ephemeralic:

[[NOCD.SI]] is an [[SI Files|SI file]]. It's the only SI file that gets transferred to LEGO Island's install directory, the rest remain on disc. It contains a {{Wikipedia|Smacker video}} stream.

== Details ==
Officially, NOCD.SI is played whenever the LEGO Island disc is not inserted. Specifically, it plays when it cannot find <code>Lego\Scripts\Isle\ISLE.SI</code> in either the "diskpath" or "cdpath" (having <code>ISLE.SI</code> without the other SI files will cause LEGO Island to softlock on startup, but will not display NOCD.SI).

The three second video features the Infomaniac who charmingly tells you that there is no CD inserted:

The dialogue in NOCD.SI was originally intended for the CD being ''ejected'' during gameplay, but has been edited and repurposed in NOCD.SI. The original unused voice clip still exists in the game files, revealing the full line to be: '''"Whoops! You have to put the CD back in your computer."''' The version of this line in NOCD.SI crudely edits out the word "back" to change its meaning. Instead, in the final game, ejecting the disc during gameplay causes the game to crash. Perhaps the developers were unable to implement this functionality and the original line would have been used if they could.

It seems this line was finalized to only be played if the game starts up without a CD before the game was localized, as the dub versions do not have this cut.

== Unused Variants ==
As previously mentioned, NOCD.SI's English dialogue was taken from an unused variant of it, still present in the game's files. This unused variant lies in INFOMAIN.SI. Also present in INFOMAIN.SI is dialogue of the Infomaniac who also tells you to put the CD back into the computer, but in a completely different tone and manner. It's likely this dialogue was also scrapped for the same reasons as the former.

'''NOCD.SI''' is an SI file that contains a Smacker video file. This is the only .SI file that gets transferred to LEGO Island's install directory.

== Details ==

NOCD.SI is played when LEGO Island cannot find the full disc contents of "LEGO\Scripts" anywhere on the computer. The three second video features the Infomaniac who charmingly tells you that there is no CD inserted.

NOCD.SI was actually meant to play if the CD was ejected during gameplay. In the game exists an unedited version of the Infomaniac's dialog which says "Whoops! You have to put the CD back in your computer.". The final version of this line crudely edits out the word "back". It seems this line was finalized to only be played if the game starts up without a CD before the game was localized, as the dub versions do not have this cut.

== Language Differences ==
In the English release of LEGO Island, the Infomaniac says "Whoops! You have to put the CD in your computer.".

In the German release of LEGO Island ("Abenteuer auf der LEGO Insel"), the Infomaniac says "Hoppla! Leg' die CD wieder in deinen Computer ein.".

LEGO Island Versions

Ephemeralic: /* Differences */

There are at least two retail versions of Lego Island known to exist. The most common is the September 8th 1997 build, and the other is a much rarer earlier build dated August 8th 1997.

A beta version dating to July 25th 1997 is claimed to exist, according to [https://www.rockraidersunited.com/topic/8354-lego-island-beta/ a post on Rock Raiders United].

== Differences ==

* '''Key files have been modified and recompiled:''' This is relevant for any hex editing as the locations of most variables will be different between them. Any specific byte changes will need to accommodate both versions to work correctly for all people.

* '''Different dialogue:''' After entering a name in the August build, the Infomaniac says "Good job! Welcome to Lego Island!" before saying "Okay, let's get started!". In the September build, this line is cut and the Infomaniac starts at "Okay, let's get started!".

* '''Changes in functionality:''' During a building sequence, Bill Ding instructs you to hit the triangle when you are finished. In the August build, this is correct as the sequence does not end until you hit the triangle. In the September build, the sequence will auto-complete when you place the last necessary brick. This makes Bill Ding's dialog inaccurate in the September build.

== Identifying Versions ==

To identify which version you have, you can check the "last modified date" of the files for whether the files were last modified in August or in September. Additionally, below are MD5 hashes of all relevant files to determine which version you have:
