Final Fantasy Hacktics

i want to bump this thread. AI behavior is so crucial to any developers tool kit... Has there been any more progress on controlling how the AI behaves ? Or is there anyone working on a project like this whom I can help ? If so please point me in the right direction. If not, is there anyone else out there interested in how the AI works?

I am currently working on a little project with FFTPatcher to recreate the game with a few new mods, one of them being how all the characters are only allowed to move 1 or 2 squares at a time... might sound restrictive at first but it actually opens up the depth of the game in a few ways. It plays a little more like an interesting chess game rather than a bunch of shananigans running around all over the place:

1st, enemy and ally artificial intelligence (AI controlled) warriors cannot hit and then run 4 squeare away, leaving your back-line vulnerable. The battles make more sense, warriors in the front line, softies in the back.

There's a lot more that I'm adding and I won't go too far into detail about it now... I will post a ISO link sometime soon hopefully.... but also please keep me updated on anything involving the AI.

Cheers,
Savant

Hey all ! Trying to make all my Lancer sprites look like thieves instead. Is there an easy way to do this?

Hey all, looking to make everyone on the battle-field immortal. Any way to do this? I can make the enemies immortal but not my teammates... I used the ENTD screen in the FFTPatcher and selected 'immortal' for my teammates that join up after the 188 Military Acadamy screen but no luck, my teammates still turn to crystals. I'm doing this because I have made changes that make the battles much longer and more complex so the 3-turn death system is not choice. Thanks in advance!

Hey all, took me awhile to figure out what was causing this glitch and I'm pretty sure its the Skillset X innate all FFTOrgasm. When this is selected its causing a glitch that freezes the game whenver a spell is cast. Anyone else getting this too? It says to make sure X equals Y which I did. And I set the number to 05 Basic Skill so they would all have innate basic skills. Fix for this? Cheers

Hey Hacktics community!! Is there an easy way to change how the AI behaves?? How to set their priorities for which actions they choose?? If there's a ton of hex work or anything like that, I'm not interested... looking for something relatively easy like an orgASM hack or FFTPatcher adjustment... Cheers!

Hello, can someone show me the thread discussing how to change unit Skill Sets so that all the skills will work? I'm changing unit Skill Sets using FFTPatcher but when selecting the skill in game they either not show up or not work properly. For example, I combined the Archer and Monk skillsets so that Archer's who have the Charge skill-set will also have the punch art abilities. However, when selecting the punch art abilities in-game they don't work properly, such as the Earth Slash only being selectable for the adjacent enemy rather than 8 squares away. Appreciate your help.

Hey everyone!! This is a loud and proud thank you from me to everyone in the FFT community here! I am having so much fun with my new FFT game using the Patcher and editing everything and creating new battles etc etc... so much fun!! 

Hey everyone! Are you all using controllers for you FFT ePSX emulator? Or the keyboard? I"m trying to get my Madcats Xbox 360 controller to function with the ePSX emulator while playing FFT... I've tried downloading a few different plug-ins and extracting them into the plugins folder for FFT and it shows a game pad configurator but when I launch the emulator the the game pad selection button is grey and is un-selectable. Any help? Thanks
