Help replacing sprites

[Cottage Cheese]

Okay, I'm ready (finally) to replace two sprites in the BATTLE folder with the Cloud and Aeris sprites. Which sprites do I replace, and what will the effects of it be?

[CidIII]

Replace Guest version of Rafa(H79), and the Guest version of Mustadio (MUSU).

Sorry to go MIA on you I spazzed out and cleaned my entire house.

[Cottage Cheese]

Ah! You're back! *glomp* I was so lost! ^_^

Once I do this, what next?

[CidIII]

Open FFTPatcher. Go into the ENTD editor and assign what sprites Guest Mustadio and Rafa use, to their regular ones.

And assign the Guest Version Mustadio as Cloud's new sprite set.

[Cottage Cheese]

It's not letting me select ENTD. It seems to be stuck on Abilities.

[CidIII]

Did you select File > new PSP patch?

[Cottage Cheese]

Oh. XP Sorry about that.

[Cottage Cheese]

Okay, so I'm in FFTPatcher, and I've got ENTD up. What do I do now?

[CidIII]

Find the battles where Mustadio and Rafa join as guest.

Castled City of Zaland through Goug Lowtown for Mustadio, change sprite set 22 to 16.
Walled City of Yardow through Riovanes Castle Gate for Rafa, change sprite set from 19 to 29.

[Cottage Cheese]

So then, when I play through, when Mustadio and Rafa join I'll have Cloud and Aeris? Or will they just replace the two in my party? If so, no biggie, I don't use either of them anyway.

[CidIII]

No the guest version is being replaced with the Sprite they use when you get Mustadio and Rafa, this way they DON'T look like Cloud or Aeris.

[Cottage Cheese]

I'm not sure I understand... But anyway, what then?

[CidIII]

Basically two sprite sets exist for Rafa and Mustadio. One is used for the Guest only which makes it basically completely unnecessary, by assigning new sprite sets to the Guest version you are freeing up an extra Battle Sprite to be used for your Cloud and Aeris.

However, you could just try replacing the Advent Children Cloud with the normal one and see if it works I think they are the same size.

[Cottage Cheese]

I could, but I've heard from a lot of people that replacing the normal Cloud with anyone will freeze your game at the start screen... Never actually tried it though, myself.

[CidIII]

I'd try, I think it's the same size. If it freezes, who cares.

[Cottage Cheese]

Okay, now I have two questions, one not pertaining to the issue at hand. When I turn on my PSP and hold down the R Trigger, it's supposed to go into recovery mode, isn't it? Well, it's not working, for some reason. The other question is, once I replace the guest Mustadio and the guest Rafa, do I then rebuild the FFTpack.bin? Or is there another step?

:EDIT: Nevermind about the recovery mode thing, I got it working again XP.

[CidIII]

You have to Turn it off, pull out the battery, put it back in, and Turn it back on while holding R Trigger some times.

No, you need to do the ENTD editing, unless you want to just replace the normal version of Rafa and Mustadio since you don't use them.

[Cottage Cheese]

That would work. I don't use them at all. If I replaced the normal version of Rapha and Mustadio, would they still look like themselves in the party menu?

[CidIII]

Yeah, you'd have to edit Unit.bin too.

[Cottage Cheese]

And SentinalBlade's got a tutorial on that, so I think I can figure that one out. When I replace Rapha and Mustadio, now that we don't have to go through their guest versions, what do I do?
