Final Fantasy Hacktics

Dome,
Good job on the mod homie, I am enjoying it so far. It was really giving me a hard time at the beginning but that forced me to up my strategy and actually get better at the game. So of course I wanted to make my Ramza a Heretic/Draw out (or Punch Art) since it seemed the best combo besides white magic. I did all the work to unlock samurai without exp leveling (mind numbing) and I saw that the samurai lost his status effects, mainly Don't Move (my favorite). My fault of course for not doing the proper research but I can still admit that I shed a man tear for one of my favorite classes. At this point I am committed and hopefully with the nerfs, draw out still makes a good secondary ability. Still, moment of silence for the Samurai *pours out some 40oz Old English on the ground*.

Word, I look forward to the update. Oh I also forgot to mention that the guests (Delita/Algus) in just about all the different FFT mods make me want to fall on a sword.

Cool, thanks for the reply and yes it was the Chocobos' long range heal and revives.

Honestly this has been the most frustrating weekend of gaming for me in a while. I started with 1.3 easytype and got beat down and then went to FFT Plus and not much luck there. So I tried KO and was getting curb stomped by monsters. Even with all this I still actually benefited. I took a step back, did more research and started 'strategerizing' better and now I am comfortably playing FFT Plus. This experience made me realize how much about this game I didn't know. Either way, great job by you and Dome.

Hey Eternal, so far I have liked the changes in the mod, although they are taking me a bit to get used to. I started out with 2.41 but switched to 1.21 because the monsters made me want to smash my head into a wall. The weird thing is I liked the other changes in 2.41 and noticed some slight differences when I dropped back down to 1.21. Is there a future plan to merge 1.21+2.41 minus the roided monster abilities? Also last question since I am new to this psx modding scene. If I have a save file in 1.21 and you put out an update for it, would I have to start the game all over again?

I have been playing this mod and so far I like all the aspects of it. The summoners at the beginning can be a little powerful since their charge times are down but it is still good so far. My only thing is the Lunar Knight, I thought there would be more... I typically don't look a gift horse in the mouth but after all the work I did to get the Lunar Knight, I find out he only has three moves. Also his class abilities are not that hot either. Am I missing something here? Are his intangibles what make him shine? Has anyone messed around with the Lunar Knight yet? How did you build your Ramza LK?

Since I have you on here, I have a quick question. I would like to have dark knight a class I can unlock instead of waiting til chapter 4. From the forums it seems I need to hack with fftpatcher but I am such a newbie and I have no idea how to do that. Do you know if someone has already done that, so I can just add it to my game? Hopefully this question makes sense, I am used to Skyrim's download and play system, hopefully it is that easy here.

Welcome to FFH, and thanks for trying FFT: KO! I worked hard on it!

Be sure you're not patching an already patched ISO. Doing so will cause lots of errors.

What's up man? Cool to see you are active. I play a modded skyrim and I usually never hear from mod authors so this is cool. I was able to fix the problem, I just d/l psxfin instead and so far it is working with 1.3 easy. I am not sure which mod I want though, I think I will try your KO mod since I like the changes. I just need to patch that into a clean FFT correct?

So weird thing is happening, my game freezes at the beginning. So I am using epsxe and with the vanilla ISO I get to the black Orbonne Monastery screen and then the game freezes right after the words "God, pl" display. Even when I patched in FFT Plus, I still got the same freeze. After some initial research it seems that people agree that using epsxe should eliminate this problem but that hasn't been the case for me. Anyone know of any solutions?

I would prefer play 1.3. Which version of it you play do you have to decide for yourself and if you want a whole new FFT, I would prefer JOT5(this includes only 1 chapter but the others are in progress), or CCD this is a mod where many things are changed and it is one of my favorite mods.

Thanks for the reply, right now I will check out vanilla FFT and then patch in the FFT: Kind of patch to see if I like it. If not, then I will go for 1.3 easy type as I hear regular 1.3 is super hard.

So after some work I think I am setup. What would you suggest for someone that has played FFT: WotL to play on psx?

The consensus seems to be 1.3, should I start with that or is there some better all around mod to start with? I guess I am looking for a game experience close to the original but with all the community-agreed improvements. Once again, sorry for the noobish questions, I am really new to this.

Thanks.

Hello I just wanted to introduce myself, my name is CHL or Luke. I am really new to this whole thing so I may have a lot of what will seem to be ignorant questions. I played WotL on PSP a few years ago and I loved it. Recently I have been looking to get back into it and from research I found that the original Tactics was a much better game.

So now I am looking to get into the original FFT. Research brought me to this site which I heard has done a lot for improving the original game. I guess first step is to find a way of playing it and incorporating the mods into my gameplay.

I guess I need some help getting started, hopefully someone can nudge me in the right direction. It seems I would have to get the PSX first so I can incorporate the mods (if I am breaking forum rules, please let me know or pm me). What would be a safe and certain option to get it on my laptop? Once I have that I guess I just add the patches from this site.
