I am a happy happy panda tonight. I just realized you can use snespal to set the colors for all 8 palettes on the sprite sheet even if they are normaly black without changing the file size any. so now i can have 6 dragon types and 6 chocobo types if i get rid of say the cockatrice and uribos. and overwrite their m.graphic/palette/skillset/job data with the appropriate stuff.

yellow, blue, green, red, black, and white chocos all in the same game at the cost of the silly gulls.... hell yes!

What program are you using that changes the file size when editing the palette? Mine doesn't do that at all. And, miss happy happy panda, you can actually have a total of 8 palettes on each sprite. =)

True i could have 8 on one sprite file but id only be able to fully use 6 as invitable unless i wanted non dragon monsters hatching dragons or the oposite.

About the file size thing, i just figured changing the extra palettes to something other then black would screw with the file size id never tried it before ;p

It's very appropriate that you have Reis's portrait.  Very nice dragons.

What kinds of abilities do ya think they'd get?

At the least a apropriate elemental attack for each one, and a generic long range attack thats on par with choco meteor so you cant just bow/spell them to death without getting hurt.

Wow these dragons look awesome!  I really like the silver colored one.  Would you mind if I decide to use them in the patch I am working on?

Love what you're seeing? https://supportus.ffhacktics.com/ 💜 it's really appreciated

Anything is possible as long as it is within the hardware's limits. (ie. disc space, RAM, Video RAM, processor, etc.)
