[Old] A new b(eta)eginning [Latest update 1st October]
« on: September 14, 2015, 02:58:32 PM »

I need you guys to play the patch and post about anything you feel it's worth mentioning (Bugs, balance issues, glitches, etc etc...)

P.s: Ramza has an unnamed skill in his skillset that pretty much kills any non ??? enemy.
Use it if you wish to advance faster in the story

    I'll have fun playing this again. I unfortunately didn't finish my my first playthrough since I lost my save file and never got past Altima because of me being derp. Going to hope I've improved since then.

    Just tried it out...and wow. Just going to stay away from that and hope Ramza doesn't get charmed.

    Really love the new sprites for Rad, Lavian, and Alicia. Might finally use them for once  :)

    I think the AI shouldn't be able to use the skill...but you can easily change a flag in FFTPatcher to make sure it's not usable if he's charmed
    Yeah, the sprites are cool as hell

    i noticed looking through fftpatcher that Performer (5c) has horrific growths for pa and ma. was that intentional or accidental?

    every job has 50/50 for pa/ma so i changed it to 50/50 as i assume it was a mistake

    also, time mage has 109 mp growth. changed it to 10 as the standard.

    How to create a proper PPF for your mod by Xifanie
    ?
    Before uploading the ppf I tried using it on a vanilla iso, and it worked

    Both are bugs. Every class has the same growths. Gj

    Now try opening that vanilla iso you patched, in Shishi. You can't. You'd have to extend the vanilla iso first and then patch with your PPF which also is not okay since it'll derp out the sprites.

    If you don't want people to have access to Shishi, I get that. Many tools will no longer function on a Jot5 iso upon re-release. However, being that this is a vanilla mod, I assume you'd be open to the idea of people using it as a base for their own project, which they currently cannot.

    I have no interest in blocking people who try to edit the patch...how do I fix this issue?

    I used the video tutorial to make the ppf...(You can see that I posted in the topic you linked, I was already aware of the tutorial)
    Calculate the difference in bites between the 2 iso (original and modified), add 00 to match the size and create the ppf.

    This is the relevant post?

    You should also replace the last byte of your clean ISO to something else than 00.

    Yes, this is the relevant part. Open the Vanilla ISO you added the zero bytes to in winhex or whatever, go to that last zero byte and change it to FF or 01 or something. Then remake the PPF. Patch it to a completely clean ISO and try to open it in Shishi once the patching is done.

    This is not a FFT+ problem... This is because you are using a emulator that requires a .cue file and you don't have one.

    well, just passing by to inform about some bugs that I found
    first, boco description class ( I hope that he wasn't sent from hell :O )
    second, boco skillset is named yin yang magic ( I suppose he is not an oracle but anyway who knows)
    and the last one is : when the monster squidlarkin (just happened to him already tested with wiz, and others) when he casts "water" the shoutbox he says he will use bolt 4 instead of water... untill now that's everything I can see that sounds weird xD keep the good work :)

    Is there suppose to be any Ice absorbing item in the beginning? Because some of my units can absorb Ice while others can't.
