Hello! I was just wondering how I would be able to use Lennarts Editors. It seems very interesting and I would like to change some things in my file. Thanks!

Forgot to include that I am playing on FFTA2. Sorry

I assume you mean these:

First you need to download the rom for the game somewhere. After that you just run job editor.jar or ability editor.jar(these require Java) and open the rom file. You can edit and then save things after that. As far as I know you need to start the game normally for the changes to apply(no save state loading). So make sure to do a regular save and a regular load if you want to apply changes. Save states are ok otherwise. Also, you have to close the rom and re-open it, reset doesn't count.

What do you mean by "After that you just run job editor.jar or ability editor.jar(these require Java) and open the rom file." Will I be able to find that in the .Rar files that I download from http://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?topic=9486.0 or do I have to find it online?

Sorry, wrong file name FFTA2JE is the job editor and FFTA2AE is the ability editor. They should have the Java logo on them.

Final Fantasy Tactics A2 - Grimoire of the Rift.nds

Awesome! All I had to do was install Java like you said and I got to see the Jar files! Thanks man!
