UnitAnim(x01x01x06x00x00){font:08}Gafgarion{br}
{font:00}Is this going to be alright,{br}

This is an urgent issue for us.{end}
Also, how the hell do people always manage to find that old-ass version of the CONFIG.INI? =___=
lunar, where did you download the event editor from?

Help! / Re: Disabling Eggs for only one monster type?
« on: July 05, 2018, 01:46:53 PM »
IIRC The code includes a range of job IDs from Chocobo to Tiamat. Unless you want to only eliminate eggs for chocobos or hydras, this would involve creating an exception in the code or somesuch, which would require more space than the routine normally provides (i.e. extend to Kanji space).
If you were looking for a non-ASM solution, then other than what you've mentioned, no, not possible.

Event Editing / Re: Editing Existing Event Text?
« on: June 30, 2018, 08:52:27 PM »
Event text is completely separate from everything else in the game. In fact, event text is part of the event data (event code + text), which is limited to 8192 bytes. If you need more than that, you're going to need to learn a lot more because it involves dynamically loading a new event slot (and only one can be loaded at any time).
So, I'm not quite sure what you were asking, but I hope I answered your question?

PSX FFT Hacking / Re: ASM Requests
« on: May 31, 2018, 03:50:33 AM »
A jal opcode jumps to a certain address and overwrites r31 with the return address, and usually returns to that address with jr r31. That means, inside that routine, any other jal calls will overwrite r31... thus it needs to be temporarily stored somewhere, and reloaded before the routine ends, so it can return where it was meant to. That's where the stack (r29) comes into play. You push it by several bytes to have some space to store variables temporarily, so the routine can feel free to use those registers (as you can just reload them before the routine ends), since there are only 31 regular usable registers. So no, you absolutely can't get rid of them.

I'm guessing you were missing the Agrias HP requirement.

I think the most likely culprit is that you use a FFT Image different from what everyone else uses. Unfortunately, no tool is flexible when it comes to that, so I just recommend creating your own image.

Help! / Re: Event 029 (Family Meeting) Dialog Issues...
« on: May 05, 2018, 08:15:30 PM »
Did you test it again? Because dialog box sizes are based on future ChangeDialogs as well; the game scans for those to determine the max width needed, so if x0022 is too wide, x0022 being a ChangeDialog of x0020, then yeah, when x0020 tries to draw it won't work and just freeze the game.

CONMAN is correct, you're missing text strings.
ChangeDialog goes all the way to x000E, but your last message is x0008... you're missing 6 messages.

Hacking/Patching Tools / Re: FFT Patcher .478 Source Code
« on: April 25, 2018, 09:49:59 AM »
I mean, you're not wrong, but you're also not right...
In PSX games and thus FFT, floating points do not exist. So 99/100 (or 0.99) is 0.
I know that the faith formula is wrong in that regard, but from a mathematical perspective, your "correct" formula is the same thing as mine... Maybe you forgot about the priority of operations that you learned in school? Exponents come before nearly much anything else.
The issue is that I never based the formulas off actual code. Someone would really need to go through all the documented code and properly document all the ability/weapon formulas, but no one has ever done it in the 10 years FFH has existed, so I doubt it will ever happen.

Test without some hacks, especially if they are strongly related to the bug in question.
We don't know every bug of every hack, because our community is so small and many hacks get used by a single digit amount of people... so basically, you just have to figure it out yourself.

Help! / Re: Issues with getting abilities to work on Ninja.
« on: April 22, 2018, 12:33:17 AM »You could just use one of the empty skill sets. You can change which skillset Ninja uses in the jobs tab. Then you can name it in FFTactext.That only works for WotL. On the PSX version, learnt abilities are based on skillset ID, so if you pick another skillset, in battle it's going to try to read Total Chemist JP as that's skillset's learnt abilities or something.
As to how to solve this problem, change Throw's action menu to normal, use my Skillset Behaviours spreadsheet to change Throw to Basic Skill behaviour or something, and as for the ability names that pop up well, I don't know if a hack was ever made for it or gone public.

PSX FFT Hacking / Re: Soldier Office Upgrade
« on: April 13, 2018, 06:27:54 PM »
I made this thing so long ago, and tested it myself on console, plus there are others who have confirmed it worked... so, there has to be a reason why it's freezing, and I'm not sure why. I do know that you really should make the text edits.
As far as the DTE issue is concerned, this confuses me because I never had this issue. Try to trim some text in that section a bit?
And FFTOrgASM saying there's a problem with my hack is just a false alert. It would be parsing the data you generated with the spreadsheet as opcodes, and it shouldn't do that since those bytes were never meant to be opcodes.
