Final Fantasy Hacktics

Okay, I was supposed to be asking this on Parted Ways' bug report thread, but I'm not doing it because it'd be a triple posting (given that no one replied to my double post there yet), and since it seems like I'm getting more feedback on this thread, so...

While playing Parted Ways, not only I saw a lot of sprites glitches, but also on the second battle (in Magick City of Gariland), the whole enemy's party started the battle with "poisoned" status. Is that really how it's supposed to be or is it a bug...? I'm asking that because I honestly have no idea. And I'm using version 361.

And I have another thing as well. I was looking for hacks with the WotL translation before, but after seeing it myself... well, I must say I had a terrible experience. Mostly because english is only my second language (the first being portuguese) and since everything is written on a sort of "ancient shakespearean english" to match the game's medieval atmosphere, I could not get half of what they were saying. Seriously, everything looked way too confusing for me. So, taking back what I said, now I'm going to sticky with the "goofy" original translation, because despite how goofy it is, at least it feels much more smooth and comfortable for me, and I can actually get what's going on. So... I'd be glad if you guys could point me to the download of PW with the original translation.

(I'm sorry for leaving my posts slightly unorganized here)

Oh my goodness... sorry for double posting, but I'm doing it because many people might have read my previous post already, so, editing it would not help anymore.

Anyway, I don't know why I posted that here, my brain must have gone afk when I did it. But that post was supposed to be on a thread related to 1.3, so, feel free to move it away to somewhere more appropriate.

Ok... I'm not sure if this bug was reported already, but...

During the first cutscene in the game, the sprite of the "priest" looks like a blond girl. But when it goes to help the injured female knight, it becomes an old man all of a sudden.

Well, I'm sure it was supposed to look like an old man since the beginning, because at least that's how it looks like on Vanilla.

I recorded it, here is the link

Version I'm using: PSX_13034ez_Complete

I also want to point out that I did patch a clean/vanilla ISO file as well.

Also, is there a way to use WotL translation on FFT: Parted ways ...?

Oooh, thank you for that! I'll be relying on you, and since it won't take that long according to your words, then I suppose I can wait for this quick fix before I actually start playing the hack for even better overall experience. Good luck on it!

Mmm... I won't deny it's completely out of place and made the sentence look a bit funny. but I think that japanese character is supposed to be a comma, right?

Because it looks it's trying to say "The enemy stands before us, attack!"

Well... if it's just stuff like that, then I suppose I should be good to go. Thanks for the encouragement, and I'm quite sure I'll enjoy it! 

Well... since you're telling me to ignore them, then I'm assuming those minor glitches won't prejudice my understanding of the story at all. Nor make me miss anything substantial or important neither. As long as the glitches are trivial, I suppose I can go through the game without problems, and get everything the story has to offer me cleary.

Thank you! That's what I was looking for. I have one question, tho.

FFT Complete stopped at beta 0.50, isn't it...? So, does that mean there are some parts of the game that were left untranslated, or is the whole game translated to PSP style already...?

Hello guys... I'm new here, and I didn't keep track of the community's works at all, so... I'm quite lost on what's going on. Anyway, I want to play FFT again, but not the vanilla version, though. I'd like to apply a patch that would improve things and make it overall a better game.

So, while browsing around I found three patches I found to be interesting, but I still don't know much about them:

Fantasy Tactics v1.3
Final Fantasy Tactics v1.3 - Easy Type
Final Fantasy Tactics Complete V.20

So, according to what I read... the first patch changes the game's difficulty, but it doesn't add FFTC's dialogue. The second one is just like the former, but it makes things a bit easier, while still being harder than vanilla. The third patch changes the game's dialogue entirely, but keeps the same difficulty of vanilla version. (At least I think it's that, so, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).

Since I've read that the first patch's difficulty is really quite tough, I think I'd feel more comfortable playing the easy version. However, I also want FFTC v20's dialogue included. So... I was wondering if I could get the easy version, and then apply the .ppf file on it afterwards to change the dialogue as well?

Please, I'd like some help.
