Unable to Open .SPR on ShishiSpriteEditor

[Enosioph]

Sorry if I'm askin such a nooby question, but i recently got my hold on the latest ShishiSpriteEditor, and ive been getting sprites from http://www.ffhacktics.com/sprites.php?s ... 0&show=all
but for some odd reasons, those sprites that are 64kb, i cant seem to open em and i keep gettin those errors. some of em, like within 44-kb range, i can open though...

how do i open those that are 64kb?
late take "Cloud (Ver.2) " as an example...how??

also note:
this is for psp

Try an earlier version of Shi-shi's. Sorry I don't have time to search and link you. If thou seeketh thou shall find.

Actually, that's a problem because he doesn't have the latest version of ShiShi.  The latest version of ShiShi extends all sprites to 65536 KB precisely so this problem wouldn't happen.

the version i used is the 1.0.0.457
thats the latest one available on http://www.ffhacktics.com/downloads.php
w/c comes along with the FFTPatcher

the older ones that found of FFTPatcher that has older versions of ShishiSpriteEditor are:
FFTPatcher-v0.271
FFTPatcher-v0.352

these 3 versions that i have seems to be not workin well for me...i cant find any better version than .457

if some1 has a link to the latest version or wat number it is...let me know

It's probably a WOTL ISO, no extension available for WOTL.  I think the readme said because of "overlapping" sprites.

i dont get wat ur tryin to say...
you sayin a got bad ISO and its impossible to use the sprites avail?

[Mega_Tyrant]

No, I'm saying that the WOTL ISOs cant be extended like the PSX FFT ISO.  If you want to put those sprites into a WOTL ISO you'll have to download an earlier version of Shishi.  The .352 version should work seeing as that's the version I use to bypass the byte size limit (only problem I see there is that since the files aren't being extended you're probably gonna be writing over some other data, I have no idea what effect that would have on the game).  You can get it off the lioneditor project site, here's a link:

yea, i got that one, but strange though...
when i try to run the PSP iso on it by ISO --> PSP --> "Import sprites from ISO" the sprites wont load,
athough when i load it on the ISO --> PSX --> "Import sprites from ISO"
it loads, but the sprites are all messed up.
wonder why...

if what im using is correct, its not Shishi Sprite editor, but a Shishi sprite manager

It might be your ISO then.  Try ripping a new ISO from your UMD and import the sprites from the new one instead.

hmmm, u think so?
well, originally the ISO was CSO, coz i uncompressed it from CSO to ISO.
worked on 457 & 271 though...
maybe il try it with another ISO file.

[Mega_Tyrant]

Generally when going from CSO to ISO there are problems, because most if not everyone removes the dummy files prior to compression and that seems to cause problems.  A fresh ISO from the UMD is generally the best way to start.

yea, its tested. it works now. tnx for the tip
