Does anybody here realize that an ecosystem with ALL predators ends in a broken ecosystem? Seriously, "dragons, hydras, minotaurs" would collapse on itself :\

They eat themself
Sometimes Dragons wins, sometimes minotaurs, etc...

[MysticKnightFF5]

...nature doesn't work like that... XD!

[Dome]

Too bad this isn't nature, this is 1.4 xD
If you don't have any suggestion/idea/feedback, please don't post in this topic anymore

[GeneralStrife]

Ever thought about doing a few more monsters in story battles since some don't do random battles dome?

[MysticKnightFF5]

I do, actually...make the fauna realistic >:\

Ever thought about doing a few more monsters in story battles since some don't do random battles dome?

There is already.

[Dome]

EVERY monster can be found in randoms
Anyway, some monster is already present in story fights :-)

I do, actually...make the fauna realistic >:\

It's impossible to make a realistic ecosystem, because there is no natural "Prey" in 1.4
Every monster can defend himself quite well
Also. the battlefield doesn't represent the full place, things to eat might be elsewhere
Monsters could live eating berries, and they fight each time for some of them
Who knows?
It's that SO important? I just want each location to be "Coherent" , not "Realistic"
Now, again, if you want to post do it with proper suggestions (Remove X and add Y here because of ... ) otherwise, post elsewhere

BUG report ( chapter 1 )
- knife not +1 Speed
- monk melee atk very weak
- 4 lancer,4 geomancer not unlock dancer

[Dome]

@Hornet
Thanks for the bug reports :-) (But, next time, be sure to post them here http://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?topic=6769.0)

@Aaron Thanks! I'm playtesting now, and I'm at the beginning of chapter 2
Full release will happen on August (University crap), but some beta may come out even before :-)

[Shade]

You know this wasn't really hard to find.

[Dome]

Yeah, I know...and still don't know how to fix it, TBH

[Eternal]

Have you tried reimporting the sprite? Did you change anything about it in Shishi?

[Dome]

Have you tried reimporting the sprite? Did you change anything about it in Shishi?

Yes, I re-imported the sprite as you suggested some time ago, but I havent tested if it works yet xD
(I'm in the middle of chapter 2 now)

[Samuraiblackbelt]

Arch had the same issue in 1.3, but he fixed it. Not sure how. (real helpful, aren't I?)

[Dome]

I know, but last time I asked him something he said he didn't know even if he knew
(I wanted to replace the 1.3 logo, he said to ask to Melonhead even if he changes it every time he releases a new 1.3 version)

[Eternal]

For the record, if you want to test a specific story battle (non sidequest), www.fantasyanime.com has a save file for each story battle in the game.

[Dome]

Thanks for the info, Eternal!

[Shade]

It's seems it's my time to give you my final thoughts.(finished, but not DD(everything else))

spoiler

Yeah haven't posted much, but here is everything.

Doguola pass was intresting, since I happened to notice peformers range had been lowered, and I noticed that AI doesn't realize this. I also noticed how badass sages were(so big AOEs!!!!), this was actually good start for chapter 4.

Meliadol was intresting(hydras), but I could kill her easily anyway.

Love how chocobos were least of your worries in finath river(porkies are evil), unlike 1.3 where you were scared by the fight.

Zeltennia Castle, it was... boring.

I was suprised by new range of the elemental pistols in Balky fight, but nothing hard.

Bethla Garrison is fun considering that you get literally cheapest thing in the game(faith rod) from there.

And now Nelveska Temple, the hydras are evil, unless you disable or kill al of them in first turn(of your units), you are fucked, worker was actually the easy part.

Germinas Peak, THANK GOD YOU DID NOT GIVE THOSE NINJAS MAITENCE(1.3 used to give us koga and iga ninja swords, not anymore).

Poeskas lake was just boring.

Ahh Elmedor everytime I meet you, I also hate you.

Good god Dycegard is so piss off, I mean he is so lucky, he hitting stop procs on ramza 3 time in row, is pretty much BS luck.
Adramelk was meh...

Cloud's battle was cool(I GOT TO STEAL STUFF AND MELT SOME FACES).

Murond holy place fights.
first one kinda lame, the badass priest didn't really do anything.
The badass trio was easy(my two handed dragon rod using onion knight made sure of it(got chaos blade))
Zalbag was actually really hard, hardest fight so far.

Orbone monastery first of the series of fights was easy, way too easy(knight blade sucked).

Rofel was kinda odd(he went in corner while other attacked me)

Kletian got into rezloop right off the bat.

Balk surrendered right off the bad(went to the corner while I killed rest before him)

Vormav spamming poison and death spells???? kay
Hashmalun was so far the hardest battle, until I used vormav battle accumalate 60 PA resulting in 999 damage(and I got lucky with damage split so ramza did not die). So he dropped from 3 hits(lol).

I got some weird bug, after I saved the game, it went straight to the battle formation screen. So I had only 3 guys with equips. I reseted and loaded the save file and tadaahh it worked now.

So altima was really good fight, just like perfect boss fight, nothing was really cheap, or broken in this fight. This goes for Altima 2.
(pro tip: deathspell 2 heals blood suck and zombie)

Not going to DD.

Did not get to try cloud or byblos( I got cloud ,but with braver only skill, just no.)

I used rafa far more little then I expected?
Malak was great.
Orlandu was actually better then a knight(well every special job that could equip swords and armors were just better with more speed)
Like I stated agrias, meliadoul, orlandu, onion knights were great.
Beowulf was a fucking beast man, I had all half of mp, move mp up stuff and 2 abilites(sleep, don't act), and he fucking kicked ass!
Worker was really good(I was suprised at his speed), I mostly spammed his long range attack.
Rad needs moar stats(compared to ramza), should he have fire 2, ice 2, bolt 2, cure 2 instead of the first ones, cause they get weak fast.
Ramza's new skills sucked, I hardly found any use for these at all, at all! Also do not have ramzas RSM change(dear god), I don't want lose my dragon spirit for some random ability.

Open your FFT ISO in CDMage export the file "SCEAP", i'm pretty sure thats the logo picture, once your done editing it, open up CDMAGE again and import it.

[RandMuadDib]

Very Nice. That is gorgeous
