Problem with FFTactext

[Alexalibur]

Hi Everybody!!
I'm still working on my patch and had a serious problem in my patching using the FFTacText
I'm testing the patch using a very minor change on one ability (#219 ability, the one under the "Quake" Spell) but it says:

"DTE for WLDHELP.LZW failed. The ISO has not been modified."
I'm using the latest patcher and using Quick edit and patching the whole ISO.
Any Ideas please?
THanks in Advance

OK, there are two reasons why this could have happened.

1. You added too much information.  Try replacing "no messages" with "..."
2. WLDHELP.LZW is corrupt in your TacText file.  Fix this by reimporting the version from a clean ISO and re-add all your changes.

I have had problems like this before. I would suggest patching with tactext before patching with the patcher.

I have this same problem except its OPEN.lzw, I even used a brand new iso to try. Anyone figured out how to fix this yet.

Try saving what you've done as a .ffttext file, close Tactext, reopen Tactext, open the .ffttext file, and THEN patching. Seems to work for me.

Cool beans, it worked. Thank ye kindly sir.

No problem! It's a very common little bug.

me too, but my error says 'DTE for BOOT.BIN 5 failed.
I only edited a simple job Squire from quickedit, and it still wont edit.
no matter wat i do, that error keeps appearing, even after saving the .ffttext, quitting the program and restarting over n over.
still wont patch up.
help anyone?

It happens when you have too much text, shorten something.

[Enosioph]

nah, ive figured it out now.
right now, im trying to edit 7 things:

Item Name (Works)
Item Description (works)
Job Description (works)
Job Requirements (works)
Skillset Name (works)
Skillset Description (works)
Unit Quotes (works)
Job Name (no)

i can edit now all, one by one, except job name.
no matter wat i do, i do.... i can never even edit even a single jobname.
if i do, i will get that boot.bin 5 error.

unless one of you guys happen to figure it out on how to do it on psp US version.

What you've already seen, and try to shorten some stuff. FFtactext is a pain in the rear. remember use a text file saved etc.
