Animation skill links

[Cheetah]

You can also just change the singing animation to giving the figure though, and just have the characters mouth move.

Though Zozma's idea is good for adding in new attack animations perhaps.

I've never heard this mentioned before, but the spell casting pose has an additional property unique to itself.

Any skill that uses the pose '012C' gathers energy over the caster's head. The color of that energy depends on the element setting of the skill it's linked to. That is why all 3 of the major spell groups use the same pose, but some have different colors. The only elements that I'm sure have this effect on the pose are fire, lightning, ice, wind, and earth. I haven't checked water, holy, or dark yet. If anyone cares to do so, please post a comment here.

EDIT: Oracle's / Mystic's spells use 0174. So it's only the first3 groups of magick. Incidentally, I have no clue what the difference is with this pose.

[Cheetah]

So cool.

[LastingDawn]

Your work is highly appreciated, just like effects you are making landfalls into  other subjects now as well!!

[Zozma]

dark will be purple it does work, but the only natural spell that uses it is dark holy

water will be a ligher blue than ice but there are no natural spells that use it.

also it seems to work for any spell that gathers energy, if you give it an element it will change color... of course holy will always be white.. and if you stack elements which ever value is lowest will be its color so if you put holy and dark it will look white.

Thanks! But don't forget that it was Zodiac who originally posted the address to begin with! =)

Awesome! Thanks for checking that out for me! =)

[Zozma]

yeah i never paid attention while playing untill i saw for the first time, the spell Dark Holy being cast by an ultima demon and saw that the energy was purple. from then on i noticed the elements.

[BeoulveBlack]

really important question regarding my next patch:

when you look at the Byblos' .SP2 file, i see what look like 2 sets of animations (or one, awkward animation) with their back versions. i'm assuming one of them go along with the byblos' [Energy] skill, and the second, i have no clue.

what skills do these go to? i need to know so that i can edit the sprite, and know what attack animation numbers to match for new skills.

[Zozma]

Sorry black im not sure, vanya might know tho.

Vanya i just thought of something, isn't it highly possible now to make a specific human have a special attack, like altima's twin spinning sword attack? provided that the swords and that specific attack animation are part of an sp2 file?

see i do eventually plan on making a human version of altima but i dont want to use a normal monster sprite, (cyoco might actually work, it has all 8 directions) (anyone ever thought of that?cyoco sprite type for a human unit? lol

[BeoulveBlack]

yeah Zoz, that would be cool; only thing is, there isn't a .SP2 ......

.....wait a minute. since we can change the sprite types now, i can replace byblos' sprite with a human sprite, change the type to type1/2, THEN edit the .SP2 (centering the sprite so it matches up with the original) so that a human has a secondary sprite file!!!!!!

now, i can make a human (or is it a human....mwahaha   )
it's gonna be an android (actually, a gynoid - think KOS-MOS from xenosaga). along with the Lost Artes (i.e. math skill), the Glabados is secretly investigating the use of these magi-tech robots, but need the holy stones to power them. the shrine knights, along with their 'mole' Draclau, want to undermine the church and destroy the one android they have online, and retrieve it's power core: the holy stone [insert unused zodiac sign]....

[Zozma]

actually i don't even need to use a monster sprite to access an existing .sp2 if im correct you can take a sprite say miluda's sprite for example, and assign it to be linked to a certain .sp2 file... at least according to what i saw in sentinal blade's tutorial on changing sprite types.

[BeoulveBlack]

the issue is, though, what .SP2 do you plan on using? you can't make a human unit "share" an .SP2 with a monster w/o glitches...unless you take away that monster's skills that use that animation.

what i plan on doing, is changing BIBUROS.SPR from MON to TYPE1/2, so that i can access its .SP2, w/o taking anything away from any other monsters (well, apandas aren't in my patch, so...). i'll place the human sprite over BIBUROS.SPR and edit it's .SP2 so that it's a human so there's no need to redirect any 'pointer' or any glitches; i'll just use what's already attached.

[Vanya]

@BB: Sorry for the delay. Spent the day preparing for Hurricane Ike.

Anyway the Byblos info:

2d03b : 032c : Shock       \
2d03e : 032c : Difference / These are generic poses.
2d239 : 0a5c : Energy      \
2d23c : 0a71 : Parasite    /  These should be the .sp2 poses.


@Zoz: That should be totally possible! =)

[Zozma]

sweet vanya

, well Black to answer back,

i would have to remove whatever skill the monster uses sp2 for in order to free up a sp2 file for a human

[BeoulveBlack]

@Vanya
thanks a bunch, and can't wait for an animations list

@Zoz
that will def. work; i guess i was just going that route because i don't really have anymore human sprites that i can comfortably spare... i'm fighting over giving up Agrias.... i know, i know, IT'S AGRIAS FOR GOD'S SAKE!! but i will replace her with someone fitting enough to protect the princess....


drum-roll...............lilith aileron. ZAN-DA SOOO-RUDO!!!! just jokin, well, maybe not....

Please don't do this... unless you like wasting your time.

[Xifanie]

I was sure your list related to the byte values and not the ability list itself.

Just take the default ability list, set the offset for the default value and add 3 at every skills, there you've got your complete offset list. This takes 1 min to do in excel; probably 5 for someone who's not used to it.
