Dante definitely needs rework.

One again, I agree, but i am not a spriter lol

ooooh ok that makes more sense now still i was thinking it reminded me of something from secret of mana. my mind must be going lol

^ this is awesome Kage where have i seen this before?

yea i know what ya mean, it would definitely be the sprites since I'm using the same standing animation for everyone lol

New video posted, this will likely be one of the last videos displaying events from chapter 1 for a little while, I don't want to give everything away before you all can play it.

Now since I just started, I pretty much have no idea how to even make my own version of the game. I do however know how to edit sprites into the game and somewhat into formation and portraits. I have experimented with making custom patches and adding characters into the game accordingly. (i.e. adding Cloud to the first fight in Gariland lol.) But I would like to know more as to how to add more/different job classes to the game w/o having to rewrite a current one. I would also like to know how to make cut scenes and even learn how to make my own story. I feel in time I will learn these things.

Best of luck to you, and once again welcome to FFH!

I like what you've done with the jobs DarkShade, looking forward to seeing some gameplay or videos of what you have in mind here. Best of luck!

Everything about this project sounds amazing, can't wait to see it. 

Damn Jon that is pretty freakin' sweet, love your work

looking forward to giving this a shot

I understand why you would say that Wiz, but after reading the whole "Why your patch won't be completed" The decision to get the most time consuming and hardest stuff out of the way first seemed most logical, sure it may take longer to produce a demo, but that's what the videos are for.

I myself will work on this patch until it is complete. As I hope Durbs and Joseph Strife will as well, but in getting the events done first while they work on the story we are getting the biggest things out of the way first. Which will make it much harder to not finish. Abilities, items those aren't quite as hard to do or not IMO anyway, and the ENTD's are already done to the point I'm working on hence why my Events work  , tho you might have meant the ones associated with the battles, never the less i want to be able to actually "Play" it more then anyone, and as soon as we get to that point best believe everyone will know about it

Once the events for chapter 1 are done is when we will really start picking up, this is when the items and abilities that haven't already been modified will be done so that we can have a demo released, which in turn will make doing things like items and abilities for the chapters that follow much easier since a lot of the work will already be done.

I know its hard to see past the Lol'ness of it all and hey there is suppose to be some funny parts like with Dante and Snake, but the story itself as its been written is actually quite deeply involved, but i would hate to give anything away You'll just have to try an trust us and keeping looking forward

That would be great Dome most of our videos don't have very many views and I think only 1 or 2 have ratings

Its not his fault Durbs lol, I didn't include that in the ppf simply because im not yet completely pleased with that one yet. And i still have it linked to the fight which is messed up so the next release of that cutscene will actually show the fight that goes along with it, (once some awesome person shows me how to accomplish this without there being a formation screen) so that i can show atleast the custom job titles and what not which will hopefully encourage some kind soul to help decide which abilities and abilities names the custom units should have.

Thanks again Wiz  i went ahead and added it to the main post as well 

Thank you Dome! I will most likely take you up on that sometime. The more support the better
