The Lion War 2.031
Welcome back fellow Hackticians! The time has finally come to release The Lion War 2.0! This comes with all the benefits of the original TLW, but with some neat new additions listed below.

This has been a long time coming and we want to thank you all for your patience! We know you will love all the new additions as much as we did creating them. The modding resources and full changelog will be released soon.
Enjoy!
-The Lion War Team



WotL Event Ports
All events have been ported over from WotL and then re-written in PSX translation style dialogue.
Full list of added events below.

Rendezvous Introduction
Wiegraf speaks to Rofel
Delita Battle w/ Ovelia at Falls (Battle)
Delita Battle 2 (Battle)
Delita & Ovelia Chat
Undead Algus Battle (Battle)
Kletian vs. Meliadoul
Agrias & Ovelia Reunion
Reis Kidnapped
Aliste Battle (Battle)
Bremondt Battle (Battle)
Agrias Birthday
Reis Rescued
Hokuten Battle (Battle)

New Events
In addition to the events ported from WotL, we needed to create some new events in some cases. Such as the Ashley Riot battle and post battle, or re-creating the Balthier cutscene as a prebattle event.
You can see a full list of new events below.

Ashley / Luso Battle (Battle)
Ashley / Luso Post-Battle
Balthier Battle (Battle + Balthier and Ramza talk)
Balthier Post-Battle
Credits Event
New Game + Event*
Treasure Selector**

Rendezvous
If, like many, you never got to play the multiplayer content in WotL, now you have your chance! Newly included in TLW 2.0 are the Rendezvous missions in a single player format. Once unlocked these can be accessed from the Bonus Content menu in the Brave Story menu.
Due to sprite limitations, some enemies many not appear until a condition (usually killing another enemy) is met.
However this does help to combat the fact that you will never have 6 units or 2 Orlandus, 2 Reis, etc, as you would have had access to in WotL.

-No enemies can be invited in Rendezvous missions
-All stats and items are retained
-Losing results in Game Over
Chocobo DefenseChapter 1 - After Family Meeting
Chicken RaceChapter 2 - Start
Treasure HuntChapter 2 - Start
TeiohChapter 2 - After Zaland
Lost HeirloomChapter 2 - After Goug
The FeteChapter 3 - Start
Desert MinefieldChapter 3 - After Underground Book Strorage

Custom Rendezvous
Because we had so much 'fun' porting over the Rendezvous missions, we decided to try our hand at creating a few of our own. Upon completion of the game, you will also unlock the following Rendezvous.
Mirror MatchActivated in New Game +
Of VagrantsActivated in New Game +

Treasure Wheel
In WotL there was a 'treasure wheel' that you'd get rewards from at the end of every Rendezvous battle. Nyzer custom built a completely new type of treasure wheel for TLW 2.0. You can see a video of it in action HERE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5l9MvRLECmI)
Given the complexity of this event, he was kind enough to write an explanation below.

Treasure Wheel Mechanics
========================

1: Basics
--------------

The player will get to play the Treasure Wheel after every Rendezvous. Each Rendezvous has its own specific loot table (though Rendezvous that all unlock at the same time share the same loot tables). There are four categories of chests, each of which will have three chests: Weapons, Armor, Accessories, and Consumables.

Weapons, Armor, and Accessories will all award gear roughly near what the player's shop progression would have had at the time the Rendezvous unlocked.

Consumables, however, are really underwhelming - in testing, everyone wanted to avoid them. So the only Chemist Items in the Consumables chests are Elixirs, which are in every Rendezvous' loot table. However, you can also find other kinds of consumables - specifically, ninja throwing items such as shuriken, or katana for Samurai. Additionally, Consumables will almost always award multiple of an item, rather than just one.


2: Rare rewards
--------------------------

When the Treasure Wheel starts, there is a chance that one random chest will become a Rare Chest. There's also a small chance upon opening any Common Chest that it will spontaneously transform into a Rare Chest.

How a Rare Chest works changes depending on its color. A Silver Chest will offer treasure based on the next Rendezvous' loot table, whereas Gold Chests offer Rare treasure from the endgame that cannot be found in any common treasure sets.

Whether the player will find Gold or Silver chests depends on which Rendezvous they can do. Rare treasure will only be Silver until reaching Chapter 4, at which point it all becomes Gold. You can tell what kind of rares you'll get by the background and the music in the event - a silver background means you'll get Silver rares, and a golden background means you'll get Gold rares.

As well, once the player unlocks Gold Treasure Wheels, they will have the option to press Triangle to attempt to force a Common Chest to become a Gold Chest. Each attempt costs 25,000 gil. If an attempt fails, the odds of having the next attempt succeed are doubled.


3: Treasure scaling
-------------------------------

There are two ways that older Rendezvous' Treasure Wheels are set to scale up to be useful to the player. The first is how Common Consumables are altered, and the second is how Rare Treasures are.

Common Consumables from older Rendezvous will no longer have katanas or ninja items. Instead, they will give the player a random amount of 1-10 Elixirs.

Rare Treasures will also scale up until after the start of Chapter 4. Until that point, a Rare in an older Treasure Wheel will be the same as the Rares in your current newest Treasure Wheel. So if you're in Chapter 3, and have just unlocked Desert Minefield, getting a Rare Treasure from Chapter 2's Chicken Race will give you loot from Chapter 3's Littering, just as a Rare in Desert Minefield would.

However, Rare Treasures will no longer scale up beyond the rare loot found in Chapter 4's Shades of the Past. Sorry, but you won't be seeing any Excaliburs from Chocobo Defense!


4: Number of chests
----------------------------------

In most Treasure Wheels, the player will only be able to open three chests. However, doing a battle series, such as Shrine Knights or Bravestory, will allow the player to open more chests, as well as increasing the chances of getting a Rare Chest at the start of the Wheel, and the chances of finding a Rare Treasure from any Common Chest.


5: End
----------

And that's that! Hopefully that helps you understand how the Treasure Wheel works. I did my best to make it feel like an engaging experience that gives the player enough control to avoid feeling like they're totally at the mercy of the RNG, without any one treasure category feeling worthless, and that every go at the Treasure Wheel feels worth your time without being ridiculously overpowered.

Now get out there and enjoy The Lion War!

Sounds Novels
Propositions [Errands] in Final Fantasy Tactics sometimes gave you unique prizes, which have no battle effect. Four of these prizes could be opened and revealed small games, the sound novels. The sound novels were not translated in the original US PSX release, nor in any subsequent releases of the game. They have a lot of text to translate.
Three of the four novel are playable in English in TLW 2.0. We are still looking for a translator for the last novel (not google translate).
Soon

Misc
Of course the bulk of TLW couldn't all fit into the above categories.
You can find a list of other changes TLW 2.0 makes, down below.
-Add Ashley Riot instead of Luso
-Add Dark Knight as a Generic Class
-Facts re-named to Bonus Content

Amazing man!!!

So guys find a solution to increase the roster from 16 to 20 AND added Glain hack for bench units?? Awesome!
I'll wait a few more days to see more about documentation and New Game+.

In the meantime is it possible to give some advertising to this mod on my FB profile by adding a link to this page?

Awesome work as always

2.02 and 2.021 being up at the same time was not intentional. I've removed 2.02 from this post (as well as the resources, as they have their own thread.) No idea how that even happened tbh

This mod is awesome! Congratulations!

I just finished it 2 times ( NG+) and i got a bug going since the first playtrough... I only can get 46 Artifacts out of 47... Both cleared game i did everything twice and still couldn't get the 500CP Prize for all treasures.

But as a LOM player and Disgaea player too, the end game features are AMAZING!

Such a genius all of you are!

Id double check a list online. You are likely missing something, as this has been tested quite a bit. Remember some propositions are seasonal. And thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

If you send out people on a proposition, and then beat a chapter and then try to get them back they are set to missing. This is from vanilla, not TLW

Howdy. I just made this account to report some minor bugs I found so far on my playthrough.

They don't really affect the gameplay and it's probably due to the limitations in the game's memory so I can totally understand, but I'll post them anyway.

As I scrolled through the character entries in the Brave Story section, Kletian, Balk, and Rofel's entries are displayed like so:
PSDX6D3D768.bmpPSDX6D3D769.bmpPSDX6D3D770.bmp

Also, while I was buying items from the Fur Shop, the Master's portrait from the Soldier's Office is shown instead of the Clerk's when the inventory is full.
PSDX6D3D772.bmp


The description for Bremondt's Holy Priest job class is blank.
PSDX6D3D796.bmp

Last but not least, at the beginning, I chose to save Algus in Mandalia so that the party's Brave won't go down when I get to Zeakden, yet the game treats it as if I chose to defeat all enemies instead, so the party's Brave went down anyway. Other than that, no issues so far.

Anyway, thank you so much for this mod! It exceeded far beyond my expectations and I am LOVING it. A huge kudos to the team that made this possible.

You can use many existing FFT cheats on the TLW mod, but maybe not all of them. There have been some changes to IDs, though I don't believe cheats use them, so maybe all cheats work.

Are you perhaps looking for cheats in Final Fantasy Tactics? That is not the hacking that we do here. However, you can post a topic in The Lounge (https://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?board=6.0) to see if anyone can help.

Beat Altima, & just dropping by to say: thank you very much for the hard work. This version of Tactics is absolutely amazing. Experiencing Rendezvous, the treasure wheel, & the added WotL events in PSX fashion really make this something special. I especially appreciated seeing the WotL cutscenes completely re-done with the in-game sprite-work (the Balthier pre-fight was really cool to see). I'm looking forward to experiencing some of NG+ as well. Thanks again & great job.

No, it isn't. The Dark Knight job was hard enough to add on its own, and besides, the WotL functionality of the Onion Knight was so awful, there really isn't any interest in including it even if it was feasible to work on it.

this patch is amazing!  could you just give a suggestion?  In case you have thought about it... could you make a version that is difficult in history mode?  I mean that the level of the enemies is equal to or higher than Ramza's?  Since training units to have more abilities, they get too strong in story battles.  thank you very much and again, wonderful patch.  total thanks!!

Hey guys I just joined up- I had wondered for a while if there was a way to play the PSP version with the original text.
After a few moments of searching I found this place!
Gotta say, i'm surprised FFT had a place like this online.  Wish I knew long ago!

Anyways though, got the game going and just started it out.  Seems to be exactly what I was hoping for!

Thanks a lot to the work put in!

Hey, I just discovered this website and I'm really excited to try your mod but I cannot figure out how to patch the iso. I opened the readme and it simply says "patch to a clean iso". I've never done anything like this and I've searched google and youtube with no helpful results.

Would someone be willing to simply tell me step by step what I need to do? It would be awesome if there was a thread covering this for absolute beginners like me.

What I have: FFT PSX .iso file.
Your mod file.

What now?

Thanks!

EDIT: I may have just found the tutorial video I needed. If not I"ll re-edit.

RE-EDIT: Sadly that video was old and did not help me. I'm still at a loss. I found some useful links on the forum but even after downloading the FFT Patcher, I still have no idea what to do. Would really appreciate some help. I'm stuck.

Notes: So, just to be clear, what I downloaded was a disc image file. When I try to use this, it just mounts it to DVD drive and I can view the files inside it. There's no PPF, no Application, I can't open your patch if FFT Patcher, I can't open it in ePSXe, so I'm really confused as to what I'm supposed to do with this disc image. Do I need a special program to apply this particular kind of patch? Or do I need to somehow extract info from the disc image? I'm completely lost.

Quote from: Silverbags on August 25, 2022, 02:22:49 amHey, I just discovered this website and I'm really excited to try your mod but I cannot figure out how to patch the iso. I opened the readme and it simply says "patch to a clean iso". I've never done anything like this and I've searched google and youtube with no helpful results.

Would someone be willing to simply tell me step by step what I need to do? It would be awesome if there was a thread covering this for absolute beginners like me.

What I have: FFT PSX .iso file.
Your mod file.

What now?

Thanks!

If your issue is you don't know how to patch a rom with a PPF file:

If that's not the issue, tell us what you tried and where exactly in the process you are.

Also pure white bolded text is somewhat jarring, please don't use such things for emphasis. This forum isn't busy enough that your reply will be lost and while everyone appreciates your enthusiasm we appreciate not being exposed to bright light on our dark themed monitors in a dark room even more.

I didn't use the bold white font to get attention. I used it because that was pleasing to my eyes. I'm sorry it offended yours. For your sake, I'll leave it out this time.

I figured out what the problem was. When I extracted the original download file, the PPF was lost on my desktop and I didn't see it till just now. It works perfectly!

Thanks a million to the ones who made this mod! You guys rock! Maybe one day we'll be able to Rendevous online with each other. Either way, so glad to see I'm not the only one who appreciates this amazing game.

Thanks again,

Silver

Correct, but not because of TLW. Because you have QoL. QoL is not currently compatible with 2.03 it seems. 2.021 saves work fine with 2.03

What about this being a vanilla extension patch/base patch eludes you? All the gameplay here is vanilla sans Ashley Riot. It's not my job to create the patch for you. Either play it as is, or mod it yourself. That is what this mod is quite literally for...

How far along or how "final" is this patch already? I used to work on a personal patch where I edited Ramza to have a new job class, plus new custom sprites for some characters, while everything else is retained. But it happened with an earlier release and thus my work is already "outdated". I would rather try to do it again with finished version of TLW.

Are there still a lot of bugs/things to fix/stuff to add in the latest version? Or is it safe to say that the latest version is already far along enough that I don't need to worry about reupdating my patch on an even newer version  of TLW.

If you wanted to know about active bugs, the bug thread woulda been the right place

I have no intention of making any more updates to this patch outside of 1 event update

Dear Elric, first off, supremely grateful for the work put in! I'm enjoying it thoroughly!

Would like to check if you know how to get codeshark codes to work on ePSXe.

For the base game, this works by a txt (SCUS_942.21.txt) where I can add in codeshark codes e.g. no random encounters.

However, this text file does not seem to be picked up when running FFT TLW - the codes menu in ePSXe is blank.

Perhaps there is a behind the scenes different game ID for FFT TLW and as such a different text file name is required?

Would be glad if you would know how this functions!

Thank you in advance!

I actually have a really odd but maybe its a good question. Is it possible to the ISO I ripped from the disk I own and add this patch to the image, then copy the patched file to a new CD-R and play the patched file on original equipment (assuming I can already play this kind of media on original hardware)?

(And I ABSOLUTELY own this game, in sooooo many different ways)

Man, I never got into FFT. I did play FF7 and 8, but Never finished the others ( completed 7 in 38 hours when I was young now I don't know  :mrgreen:  ) This may be my time to play FFT as usually, hacks have a lot of bug fixes, and hopefully more difficult. I mainly play ARGs like Torchlight and Diablo 2 with difficulty mods. I did try Final Fantasy - 0 but personally, I found it boring. I will give this a try (when I have time ) I work a lot and I some days have liks 30 min and sometimes I work till 11 pm ( I work for myself ) I am not going to lie. This hack really looks good. Will give my input once I have time as I am good at tactical games but They do tend to take long

Edit: uhm I overestimated myself... Imagine being good in TRPG and then you die like a nab. On a planet full of Nabs, I'm their king :D. I only had 30 min to play early morning and I do say, I enjoyed it more than I thought except for me ramboing like an idiot instead luring...

Title: Re: The Lion War 2.031 - DOWNLOAD HERE!!
Post by: Nyzer on October 06, 2023, 09:41:48 pm
No. WotL's equipment extension was done in a way that would have been extremely crude and tedious to replicate, and AFAIK, no one has ever cared to take a stab at it.

One of the most limiting features of it is that the base game uses almost every value in an entire byte for equipment and item slots, and the data for unit stats was planned accordingly. Basically, it's like every value from 00-99 has already been used, and going any higher would require changing that to 0000-9999. There'd have to be some way to double the number of digits (or fake it) for every single equipment slot on every single unit stat data section, as well as make every single line of code in the game that looks at the equipment also look at the upper half of the ID number. Or there'd have to be some way to have different IDs mean different things depending on which equipment slot it was in, making it so that, say, the ID for Excalibur in the hand slots meant the Crystal Helmet in the head slot. Aaaaand then every line of code that looks at the equipment slots would need to be adjusted for that.

Hello there,

I am digging up some nostalgia and wanted to give this hack/build a run.  I was wondering if there were any changes to job stat growths or not.  I.E. Ninja still has the best speed stat growth, or if Ramza's squire job is now broken for stat growth.  I have seen that before.

Regardless, thank you for all your efforts.

TLW is all of the PSP content, added to the PSX version, modified to resemble the rest of the PSX content. Dialogue of WotL-specific content is redone to not be flowery and whatnot.

TLWotL takes TLW and makes all of it resemble the PSP version as much as possible. All the text/dialogue, the JP costs of abilities, the calendar, etc, all match WotL.

As for which to play, the biggest question is just which of the original versions did you like more? If you didnt play either, or dont have a preference between them, then the general consensus around here is to go with the PSX dialogue, and thus, TLW. Both have all the same content, so you wont miss out on anything regardless of which you choose.

Also, please dont double post the same thing across multiple threads. Thank you, and enjoy whichever version you end up playing!

Hi, I'm having a real problem with this mod. This is the first time I've modded a game before. I've gone through the process correctly - patched the mod to a clean rom and uploaded it to the steam deck. It loads fine but the problem is that all the characters are about 5 spaces off where they should be. The shadows are in the right place but the characters are not. I thought this might be a glitch in the opening sequence (with the princesss and gafarrion) but once the battle commences, the same problem persists- characters in the wrong place, some of them floating. I cant seem to find anyone else having this problem so is it something i did or is it a simple fix? Sorry if this is a little confusing to understand i can upload some pictures if you like.

1) Your antivirus might be derping it, for whatever reason (it's not a virus)
2) Your internet could be derping it
3) Third thing here

Try to download the patch on another device and tranfer it to the device you are wanting to patch it with, instead.
