The Lounge / Out of curiosity..

Know a place where I can buy more?  :mrgreen:

Kekeke.
In all seriousness though, I'm new to the modding/hacking scene in general so I was just curious, when you aren't modding/hacking or browsing the forums, how do you generally spend your time?

Me myself? I find new ways to inadvertently add viruses to my friend and I's PC. Due to my social-anxiety paired with agoraphobia, I'm often spending my time online, I -had- a long, dark, history with MMO's but at some point I decided to take some extreme measures to kick my habit to the curve, ended up without a computer for almost..5 years? And then I ended up getting into console gaming, although in moderation. If I'm not busy gaming, I'm often browsing a forum or reading some light novels, or sending out a gopher to fetch me a book from the local library. I'm always looking for some good recommendations when it comes to literature! I will generally read any type of genre, though I favour the more young-adults labeled stories. Charlie Bones, Artemis Fowl, Ender's Game, Percy Jackson, etc. I'm horrible at remembering author names so I apologize if you ask, "Did you read anything from such-and-such" and I give an unfavourable answer.

And I'm unsure if this belongs in the Lounge or in Spam, sorry if I posted it in the wrong place.

They...Removed incantations? That is blasphemy! I remember loving the incantations, at the same time I was like "Why are you stopping for thiiisss!?!". When I would set all my units to automatic for my amusement. Ahh, that's another thing I would like to do, is there a way to change the AI behaviour? To favour certain actions and the like. I only know a bit of the early game translations for WotL, it seemed more modern? I guess? I didn't get far enough to see what changed really.

Adding on about what I want to do with the archers, I was fumbling around in FFTPatcher and was trying to change the Archer skillset to be more of a debuffer, Like how the FFTA one is, and couldn't figure out how to add status effects to their abilities, granted I only messed around long enough to get a bit familiar with the program. The caffeine ended up dying down and i went to bed, eheheh. I may just try out the WotL to see all of the changes, and check out a few of the FFT community overhauls/games. Thanks for the assistance!

EDIT: As of posting I opened up FFTPatcher, and saw the glory that is the default menu. I can now do what I've always wanted to do, make charge so powerful that it "Crashes Game". Ahahahaha, and so my reign of terror begins! First rule, no peasant revolts.

Thank you kindly!

I believe I picked up a few of them from random locations, likely less then reputable locations, so I'll be sure to use the wiki next time. I remember playing the WotL edition at the very start, and I was quoting from my noggin, and it got to one of my favourite Ramza quotes, "Silence! Surrender or die in obscurity!" I believe it was, and in the WotL Ramza said something completely different. Along with the whole Sir/Ser thing as well. But I never played deeply into the WotL edition so I can't tell ya' which percent I am.

And as for doing a community mod, I don't see myself producing one in the near future, unless I somehow end up being gifted with this. I think I'll just do some light modification to fit personal preference. Like making my favourite class, the archer, not be what it currently is. I'll start with a leaf boat in a puddle and work my way up to a leaf boat in a storm gutter.. Hehe.. Lemme know if you get it? Otherwise I'll feel bad for thinking I'm witty.

Once again, thank you for the welcoming! I look forward to what is in store in the future!

Thank you kindly!

The problem I'm currently facing is, I don't know which tools apply to what game, I noticed a fair majority of them lean towards FFT/WotL, and I'm unsure if the same tools can be used for the GBA/DS ones as well. Although if I take the time to re-read a lot of them I'm sure I'll pick it up if I glanced over that bit the first time. I think poking around in FFT should help wet my feet, and I'll try to take it from there.

I'm not sure where to start with the community versions, do I start with PS/P or GBA/DS?! So many begginings! Though I think I can figure out where to start off there with some browsing.

And you're right, it is a bit overwhelming, but my heart is beating in excitement of all the possibilities! Or maybe it's the caffeine? Hrmm.

Oh god, a forum...I never know where it's okay to touch these things...

Ehehehe.~ Whatchanogood? Come here often?

I decided to say hello after I made an account to bother someone on this forum. I'm a long time FFT fan. If I had to pick a favourite it would have to be FFT. I never got the chance to play the WotL edition even though I own it (PSP mishap at the time deprived me of it's use). I've played most of the other Final Fantasy games, except the 13 series. Currently a level 5x Scholar/Warrior on FFXIV, sub expired and haven't felt the need to go anywhere in the Heavensward expansion.

I had a finger in every pie, that my small nubby hands could reach in, actually? How long ago was that? Was I even little? I don't remember at all, I have a horrible sense of time, and a pretty unreliable memory of things past. Currently posting after an all nighter, so pardon the..random nature? Of this post. I don't often post in forums. I think the only other forum I frequently posted in was the Minecraft one a long while back.

I'm currently having aspirations of greatness after discovering the modding/hacking community. It's likely one of those moments you get at 4 a.m. while listening to music and saying to yourself, "I've done a lot of stupid in my life, but from this moment on...!". So for the time being I'll be browsing the forum. Please take care of me.

-With slow blinking eyes, Madd.



P.s. If someone could point me in the direction of the nearest "how2noob" guide that would be great, while in a caffeine filled stupor I downloaded tons of..Things, that I have no clue what they do and I would like to know how to open them. Much obliged. <3
