Unit.bin

You mean they cut off access to the unused 100-112?

[FFaddic]

Not sure, haven't tested it much yet. Just changed Ramza to portrait 7C which was Larg. In Cheetah's chart Larg is labeled as 8C. So basically subtract 16h from the values after 70.

[LastingDawn]

That's very odd... since I know they can be accessed with the Attack.out portions of things. In any case this is fantastic work! Ah yes, a little thing we found yesterday (not really important but just a bit humorous)

[Vanya]

OK. That's just nuts! Can you imagine managing all those units! LOL ^_^

[LastingDawn]

Haha! Indeed! A 60 party roster is a bit much, I would imagine...

[Cheetah]

You are absolutely right FFaddict. I had it how you said when I originally tested but, then forgot when I got in the mode of just copying a pasting all those numbers. I will correct and repost it soon.

[FFaddic]

So I was retarded. Palette data was right at AA16A. While messing around, I also figured out that portraits do not require any palette data.

And 74B16 is portrait data for when you use select and press Circle on a character's name. Why this is different than the regular portrait I dunno, but that's what it changes, heh.

[Vanya]

Cool. And just to clarify, AA16A are the actual palettes, not the palette assignments?

[Xifanie]

if you want to modify the palettes, they are at the end of UNIT.BIN.

[Vanya]

OK. SO.. what? World.bin sets up the palette assignments for Unit.bin or something.
Bloody hell, I think I've confused myself. =P

[FFaddic]

Sorry, I worded my post badly.  It was like 3 in the morning.

I was referring to the formation screen portraits. You can use world.bin to change the portrait and sprite assignment for each character. However, sprite assignment also requires an additional value for palette assignment. Portrait assignment does not. It uses the palette that matches the assigned portrait.

Edit:  AA16A = Palette assignment

[Vanya]

Ah. Cool. Is that it then? Are these bastards finally fully editable? I'm about to begin a major overhaul of the sprites in my patch and I'd like to keep unsavory surprises to a minimum. ^_^

[Cheetah]

Okay I updated the WLDFACE sheet so that it is correct. I think I'm going to go through a bit more of this stuff and document it a bit more thoroughly.

PS: Okay it took me like 4 tries but now I actually have a fully accurate WLDFACE chart up there. Those "empty" spots can totally be used btw.

[FFaddic]

Is there available palette data for the empty spaces in WLDFACE.bin?

[Cheetah]

There is definitely room for palettes for all those blank spots, they are right where you would think they should be in order with the other palettes. Also note that there is generally a lot of room for more palettes besides that.

[Vanya]

Are the words in the circle used?

[Cheetah]

I feel like they likely aren't. Everything else here actually appears in the Battle Prep screen or in the Formation Screen, but I don't see how that text would be there. Worth testing.

[Zozma]

yes leaving temp is used for certain when units are on propositions

missing probably is too. infact, equipped is probably shown over all units eqipped with any item you search for when looking at your inventory in the menu.

[LastingDawn]

I know that Missing is used when you leave a character "behind" when you clear a chapter if they were on a proposition.

[Kuraudo Sutoraifu]

Wow, this game is over 11 years old, and I just learned that "Missing" thing.
