A question

[psp master]

With new sprites, text edits and jobs. And I have a question: is it a good idea to make Bard (warrior) and Dancer (mage) starting jobs for males/females so females are mages and males are fighters. That seems great. You need to have both males and females.

that does work, however, you can't change the starting job from squire without ASM, so your job tree would look like

Code Select Expand

         -->Dancer-->ect
Squire --
          -->Bard-->ect

otherwise that's a fine idea

That would make it just like in Tactics Ogre. (Not a bad thing.)
In tactics ogre the only job that males and females share is Soldier.
From there they have different job trees.
And since FFT was developed by the team that created TO... yadda yadda yadda...
FFT was probably originally going to be a TO game that was shuffled around early in development.
Just a theory. ^_^

At any rate, if you do it like this it'll give you an extra set of sprite files for enemy only jobs. Since something like half the male & half the female sprites would go unused.
