hello, i am a newbie.. i have many question about Edit Sprites..
1. Can i edit sprites w/o using Photoshop?
2. Can i edit Lavian , Ladd, Alicia Sprites into like Beatrix or anything in http://ffhacktics.com/sprites.php
3. What is TYPE1 / TYPE2 ?
4. Where i can find full tools for editing Sprites (like Shishi, and the other material) ?
Sorry `bout my english so bad.. i from Indon..
Please Answer this Question >_<
Thanks for helping..
1. Yeah, you can use any image editing program. For example; Microsoft Paint, GIMP, Graphics Gale...
2. Also yeah, but there's a process to it. It's harder than some new people might think. I'll try and find a tutorial that someone wrote up for it.
3. Type 1 and Type 2 tell you what kind format a certain sprite is. When using a custom sprite from the custom sprites page, you have to make sure that you change the type to whatever it says there, otherwise you will get errors.
4. The downloads page of course! http://ffhacktics.com/downloads.php
can u tell me whats i must download from http://ffhacktics.com/downloads.php ?
i know Lavian and Alicia i must be in my group for Agrias Birthday.. and so i really want change 2 sprites to Uniqe sprites :)
hi there, my fellow countrymen.
if you want to edit WOTL,
from my experience, you will need :
Grapic gale for editing the sprite itself (surprisingly simple for newbies like us)
fft patcher suite ver 0.478 for fftpatcher itself (editing job, skill, item, inflict status, etc ingame)
fft patcher suite ver 0.457 for fftactext (to edit text like job name, ability without much error - search it on the help/ war of the lion hacking section)
fft patcher suite ver. 0.352 for shishi sprite editor (the one that can import different size sprite to WOTL)
fftevgrp for editing formation and pre-battle sprite
ppf o matic for applying slowdown removal patch (must be applied first)
also im using UMD gen 4.00 (search on google) instead of cd mage to extract fftpack.bin from my WOTL iso.
here's the tutorial for alicia and lavian :
http://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?topic=9303.msg181920#msg181920
and here's how to import formation sprite :
http://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?topic=6702.0
PS :
on WOTL replace type 1 ONLY with type 1 and type2 ONLY with type 2 otherwise it will be mess up in battle.
i hope that will help..

Both are located here on the downloads page which I already linked you too. You should look around the site more, because you might find what you're looking for before asking your questions.
Ok.. i was trying to Open ShiShi Sprite Editor to my FFT WOTL iso.. but error..
(http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/tt6/andri_glory99/IDGs/321_zpsa4d00fc2.jpg) (http://s592.photobucket.com/user/andri_glory99/media/IDGs/321_zpsa4d00fc2.jpg.html)
please help me..
that's why i told you to get FFTP ver. 0.352 (try searching on help/FFT/WOTL hacking board) for the old version shishi the only shishi that can import different size sprite to WOTL..
search and you shall find.. :o
Okay now i was try making Female Knight Sprites as Yuffie Srites Success..
but i was try to make sprites for Ramza.. i'm Confused.. I Need to replace all ch 1-4 Ramza to Ramza Cape Mercernery?
NO and YES, if you 're perfectionist like me, you will want all the event run flawless with your modified ramza sprite, or if you dont mind ramza sprite revert two or three frame on many events (looks kinda weird if i may say), you dont need to edit them..
verdict : its up to you ;)
happy modding :o
Oh IC thx SilverRegret & Jumza
Hey guys - just looking at several threads on editing sprites in WOTL.
Everything seems clear to me except one thing - the extraction of the the bin file. I am using the UMD Gen 4.00 - but when I try to open or extract the bin file - it just comes out as garbled text. I tried using notepad + and what not as well - but still just un-readable text.
How do I go about accessing the information - so that I can do the unit and wildface steps?
