Title: FFT Arena 1.42 Memory Card Generator ~ 2017-09-23
Post by: Andrew on October 22, 2015, 09:22:34 pm
This tool, created by Xifanie, allows for you to make teams and setup matches between different teams already saved in the tool itself, or teams you choose to import.  It also gives you guidelines to follow, such as for staying below the JP cap, not using more than two types of items / skills, etc.

- Female Mystic Knights must be put as "F Mystic Knight", and their skillset as "F Spellblade".

- IMPORTED UNITS THAT ARE FEMALE MYSTIC KNIGHT / FEMALE UNIT WITH SPELLBLADE MUST HAVE THEIR SKILLS REINPUT!

- Microsoft Excel is required in order to use this tool.  I use an unregistered version of Microsoft Excel 2010, and everything in the MCG works fine.

- Make sure to enable usage, content, and macros, which usually pops-up near the top of the window if they are for whichever reason disabled.

- If you're experiencing a "run-time 1004" error, unprotect your sheet by right-clicking its tab at the bottom, and then select the appropriate option.

- When importing teams, make sure that you're copying the team from a universal text tool, like Notepad, before you paste it into the "Import" field.

- The MCG will not calculate JP totals for units that haven't been assigned a gender.

- A setting in the MCG has been enabled to allow any RSM to be put in any slot (example: PA Save as a Support).  This is so Maintenance can be set as a Movement, since we have not yet developed an ASM hack that changes its hardcoding.  Regardless, please put RSM in their intended slots.  Thanks!

- Some equipment information (such as bonus PA, MA, etc) does not display.  This is due to a conflict that happens between the MCG and an ASM hack we use that lets us have access to many more item attributes to use for equipment.


Amount of imported teams: 63

where is the settings tab on your mem card generator? I'm not finding it for some reason. The settings tab allows you to save mem cards in .gme

Sorry about that.  The most recent attached version is fixed.

Nothing wrong with a bump if you do it when you update, I don't think.

Is it just me or is it still bugged? Whenever you equip a helmet, armor or accessory that gives PA/MA/Speed the mem card generator doesn't display it. It still shows in game, just thought I throw it out there. Plus it doesn't show on the mem card generator if you absorb, halve or nullify any elements. Or if you're immune to status as a matter of a fact

Bump.  I have it listed in the original post that non-weapons equipment doesn't display special attributes like PA, MA, etc, for whichever reason.  My best guess for the reason why this is happening is because of the EIA (extended item attributes), an ASM hack that's necessary for Arena equipment to function the way that they do; but, then again, I don't ASM nor know how to do anything fancy with spreadsheets like Xifanie does.

master guide says that MP restore is 200 JP however the Memcard generator is registering it as 450

Bump.  Thanks for letting me know, Corosar, since that meant that the JP value in-game was incorrect, as well.  The value in the memory card generator has been updated, and the new PPF will probably be posted sometime tomorrow.

Hey on the memory card generator it still reads that jump +1 is on squires instead of lancers and jump +2 is still available. Even though the master guide says otherwise

The version that's available for download in this thread does not contain that issue, so please use it instead.  Apologies for the confusion.

Is there a reason why it sometimes displays a run-time error 1004 whenever you try to save your team?

Post by: Andrew on August 02, 2016, 01:37:00 pm
I haven't experienced that issue myself.  What version of Excel are you using?  I'm using 2010.  Gatebuster202 just said in Discord that it's an error that has to do with your version of Excel not properly handling the macros that are required for the MCG to run.

Make sure to click on the two buttons that appear at the top when you first use it: "enable content" and "enable macros".

2010. And yeah, I did enable macros and content. It only seems to happen when I have all four units created and try to save.

Try unproecting your excel sheet Otabo. You do that by right clicking onto a tab and select unprotected sheet. At least that was the issue for me when I was trying to import a team.

bug with Two Swords skill makes the JP cost total N/a If you use two swords in your team build. your gonna have to calculate that unit manually

Edit 2: went down the list with wizard as the primary skill... it happens with almost every single skill... am i doing something wrong?

This only happens if you haven't assigned a gender yet.

EDIT: Do not use this right now, as it hasn't been updated for 142.

Unfortunately, due to a game hack we use, most information for most items will not display in the memory card generator.  However, Gaignun's team builder tool in this thread (http://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?topic=8202.0) works for this purpose!
