Thank you all for waiting so patiently! I do apologize for the Extremely long wait! But do I have some news for you!
Kokojo and I have been working feverishly on our patches and we've both met with degrees of success and failure, but we do have a product to finally show you! (Well... he does, Mercenaries *Thanks to a Last Second new glitch in the Text Editor!!!* is a bit un... readable in places, replaced by Inexplicable Kanji!) but if you reference the threads while you play that should help (except weapons, I apologize for not keeping you all up to date on the Sweeping changes to the weapon system!)
So without further ado, I present to you the first official TEST Demo of Mercenaries!!
(Please keep in mind this is a work in progress, most sprites are unchanged, a few events, even Along the way to Dorter are unfinished! As such though, I do highly encourage you try another ofy our files with an actual team to get a feel for the new classes and weapons, all of 1.3's Random's have been lifted for just this purpose! Enjoy!
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3KS584OY (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3KS584OY)
And to my partner in all of this Kokojo! Please check out his vastly different and wildly unique patch of his own, Call of Power!!

Sadly it's not playable on the PSP. I tried with every possible POPs and it didn't work. it freezes when you go to take the first action. I'll keep trying though.
Also, the Gariland battle is not only difficult, Rad appears with Ramza's sprite. But I noticed your using the red ramza!

When I try to attack with Lavian in Mandalia Plains, it glitches ePSXe. Also with certain skills, ex. Spin Fist, Dark Sword, ANY Invoker abilities.
Also the Rune Mages skill's are back to being called "Potion, Hi-Potion, etc."

Rad joins after Gariland? I don't think he's supposed to. Also, after Gariland, Ramza fucks up, and appears as a space of nothingness, with 0 stats.

As I said in CoP thread, I so wish I was done of exams... I will have to wait until Wednesday to give this a run, and I am REALLY looking forward to it. Congratulations on all your hard work leading to this patch and continued success in the future. I will definitely provide plenty of feedback when I can play through. I guess by then I will have the benefit of a slightly less buggy demo, which isn't such a bad thing

I don't have any intense expectations. You may notice I am an overly kindly gentleman, and I am just very appreciative of the work all you guys are doing on your patches. I'm still a little obsessed with this game after so many years, and finding this board and seeing work like this being done is just outstanding to me. I think you are all very ambitious and I personally couldn't be more thankful for anything released because it's a chance to play my favourite game ever in a totally new way. So regardless of how far along the patch is or how buggy it may be I will be very happy and very impressed I guarantee it. You seem like a very modest guy, which is not a bad thing, but know that many people (or at least myself) are just very appreciative and excited to see the progress that goes on here, and to even get a glimpse of what Mercenaries has to offer is a treat for me.
End rant, but yeah, I am certainly not going to be harsh on your work or be disappointed, I promise you that! Nothing but thanks from me and some feedback if you still need it by then.

Oh... poor LD... ><
I ran into this problem with Move Find Item. I believe the problem, LD, is that your "OVER_RUNNING" the text.
Basically, clearly it only affects Ability names. You've used too much extra text on Ability names. You might end up having to shorten the names of some of your skills. They might be tooo long, I find it's easier to always try to keep the Ability's names with generally the same amount of text.

I'm not sure how Mercenaries will be incorporating the whole 'chapter' aspect. Game starts at Zeakden for your first battle, then you go to Gariland and meet up with Gaf/Rad, then you go to Mandalia to save Lavian, then Sweegy to the 'competition/tournament' there and then to Dorter to get ambushed! That's all the demo patch story battles if I am correct.

I just downloaded the demo and played through a bit. The story and dialog are exquisite, the jobs are gonna take some getting used to, but the seem quite innovative. My only concern is that the emulator--or something--crashes randomly. For instance, after the second battle (first time you get to use Gafgarion and Rad) the game froze for quite a while after the battle ended: the emulator stopped running and my computer froze, after about a minute or two the emulator kicked back up (Vista is a bitch and won't let me close things as they start to crash) and I continued the game. Then I proceeded to the Lavian fight, a similar problem occurred: as I was about to attack with Lavian my entire computer crashed, I got a blue screen, and the computer restarted. Thankfully my computer's back up and running fine, but I decided to let you know about this problem right now before I cause some serious damage.
These seem pretty significant, and I'm not sure what the cause is. My computer is brand new and this is the first time I've played a patched game on ePSXe. This entire project looks quite promising, so I hope to hear what's up soon. Best of luck to all you.
EDIT: Well, after my computer crashed twice while I was trying to edit this post, I'm thinking it was actually an issue related to my power supply, triggered by the emulator. Anyhow, I'll let you know if anything else happens that might require your attention. Great work on this project; you've made a fan of me.

I had heard that... but that is a glitch I fixed some time ago, it isn't in the final version, also the glitch was a lot less... damaging... it caused the game to freeze yes, but that was the extent to what the damage was, I find it strange that it would occur in such a way... though I hope it hasn't been too large of a deterrent for you. I am glad to see you like the project so far!
EDIT: Yes, Melonhead released his fix, but I'd like to do a lot of other things before I release another version of the TEST demo.

No, it's no big deal--like I said, it was actually an issue with my power supply, but perhaps something within those scenes required a little more power? I have no idea. Anyway, it's a phenomenal project; I'll be lurking around keeping an eye out for some more goodies you guys have to release.

Well, first you have to get PPF O Matic, which you can download from the main section of the site under Miscellaneous, from there patch the... patch with a Clean ISO (unmodified ISO) of FFT, then that should be all you need. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

LastingDawn I'm trying out mercenaries and I found this glitch. I don't know if you know about it or not but the White Mage (I don't remember what you guys renamed it to, sorry) had something called "Tumulteous" something or other that when I checked it it said it gave the effect "Reraise" but when it was used gave "Berserk" so far that's all I've found wrong.

Wish is a debug tool, to skip the battle quickly to test out events. Use it if you wish, it is not advised though.
Also, if you get pissed off, you can always wish Algus dead.

A series of battles with the new addition of Squolar the Mindflayer Scholar, to explain in full about the new classes, weaponry, etc. The next demo will just be another release of this (with a few things fixed) with the equipment finished.

Actually the TEST Demo has been scrapped, as it's little more then a rehash of what I had done earlier, it's really not worth the effort, what is being worked on currently is a Training Demo which will be an introduction the the way Mercenaries works, displaying most of the new classes, showing the new battle formation dealings, as well as a humorous parody ofChapter 1, in Mercenaries.

That is a fantastic idea. I'm extremely eager to see it. You have no idea how hard it is to contain my excitement every time I look through the information of your patch. (Though... the threads could use a bit more updating and organization for ease of navigation, but hey, it's the patch that matters.)

The most current? Playability is the important part, with Rad and Ramza being the prime focus, I can't just throw in a Vanilla scenario and tell the player to "have at it". I need to calculate everything, so that it's not only playable, but enjoyable to the player, it's a difficult balancing act.

Well... there is the monster battle savestate, but you need to jump through a few hoops to get that working (PSXfin and Extended ISO)

Sorry disturbing again , but I can't make the demos works.

But it not works and I don't know how make a extended iso.

For This I'm using the PSXFIN emulator and the LD savestate(PSV file).

Yes, I download the extended iso (program) in the site, but it is in .PPF too. :(
To play the PPF's you have posted I'm trying this:
>Use the PPF O-Matic 3.0 to associate the PPF with an ISO file.
The PPFs file are posted in this topic, they are posted by you.
But I don't known what ISO I will use to associate with the PPFs files I already have. :?:
>I will continue to try by myself, if i'm sucessed I tell you.
Tanks sr.LD

Quote from: "LastingDawn"It is the Sprite Editor, yes. Once you load your iso into the Sprite Editor it asks to restructure the ISO which in turn expands the ISO.
I think this is the stuff i need to make the extended iso, so where i find it?
post it tom me please.

Just Open Shishi and Load the ISO.
It will tell you that you need to reconstruct the ISO. = extend ISO.
ISO? Use a clean original FFT ISO.

Sir LD doesn't show us all progress in one demo.
He'll just show how the battle works for the next demo.

Okay then, tanks Mike Mitchi and LD.
Now i gonna test it.
Use the ppf o-matic 3.0 and associate a ppf file with an iso of the original fft, then open this with the Sishi and extend the iso.
Is right this order?

Alright, for spriting programs, MSPaint is the BEST!
Mostly of us here use MSPaint for spriting. However, you still need programs like GraphicGale or GIMP for palettes editing.
For tutorial on using them (eg GraphicGale), check out tutorial post, where there's a tutorial by mav on GraphicGale.
That's all, I think ^^

Well, you look at existing sprites, you'll get it ^^
How to sprite? Well, pencil, mostly. And how to transform? Well, basically, those spritesheets are basically already sprites.

Yes in part, but if I say I want do the spirites from real people?
>You think it's possible?
>When you say they are already spirites, you say to load an spirite from FFT riginal and only edit it?
Maybe by this way I can make the spirites.
Tanks for the help, I will try this one.

Hey Delano. IDK much about spriting but I advice you to continue this discussion in the "Spriting" Thread. There's a lot of info there, and you have a higher chance of getting the answers you need there.
Besides, you're changing the topic here. Teh mods are gonna get you.
