Help! / Re: Replacing Orginal Sprites
February 01, 2012, 04:43:52 am
Are you using a psx Iso/bin? Are you using Shishi?
What exactly is the issue you are having replacing it?

You don't need to rename anything to use it in Shishi, you just need to make sure
that you have the SEQ and SHP Types correctly

I would say Worker 8 and Mustadio are the worst by far.

Well I finally took the time to go and complete the UNIT.BIN and WLDFACE.BIN to accomodate the changes to the old job system we were using.

I'm also working on the last few events for Chapter 1. I have 5 more to go (not many considering that I've done somewhere between 35-40 in
the time I've been working on this mod (tho not all have been Jot5 related.))
and several of which shouldn't take very long at all. Once I'm finished
with these events, Raven and I will come up with some more event conditions and optional dialogue to improve the already complete and soon to
be complete battles.

Sorry that this isn't much of an update. But Raven already said a whole lot of things and I can't top it  :mrgreen:

Wow. Yeah that looks like a ton of work. :?

I wasn't really planning on making a patch or anything, just playing around with sprites for personal use. I really hate that fugly purple spike default outfit he wears... Oh well, I guess I'll just live with the glitches in the cutscenes for now. Maybe once I'm a lot better at making sprites I'll give it a try. I have the free time but getting into FFT modding seems really overwhelming. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it eventually if I keep at it.

Anyways, I appreciate the help Elric , thanks man :mrgreen:


Not a problem, and yes it can be overwhelming at times, but if you only focus on learning 1 thing at a time you should do just fine. That's what the help section is for  :mrgreen:

Thanks for the fast response guys :D

I'm gonna try playing around with it later tonight. Will post results.

Is this pose the only instance where this happens for Ramza or is there a bunch I have to edit?


Well unfortunately this is not the only time this happens. Anytime he does something out of the norm
(such as turn his head, nod, pull his sword out) these are known as EVTCHR and they (in the simpliest terms)
are essentially drawings frame by frame of an action taking place that wouldn't normally take place in
battle. They are drawn with that Vanilla characters Frame.


In order to take care of all of these you would have to edit each EVTCHR using Ramza to look like the Ramza
that you are using. Or you can edit all of these out of events, which i can't see being alot of fun.

So unfortunatley either way it's not going to be an easy fix. But unless you are planning on this being a Huge
patch that you intend to spend a year or more making I think you should be able to look past it :P

Hope this helps

hoho other characters too.. you have to edit them if you want them to look smooth w/o glitches if they belong in events and you changed ttheir sprites. lol XD


example: (i have blacked out the glitched char. e because it's annoying and i haven't edited my evtchar yet XD



I have no words for this picture xD. It goes against everything I have learned on this site. But it still made me laugh, so nice job :P

Sounds like we've both been pretty occupied. :?

Yes indeedi, BUT the main point is we are still moving forward. And with how many projects used to die in the past,
I feel it appropriate to continuously try to get Hype about Jot5 and reassure people that, while it may be mostly
behind the scenes and spoiler stuff that we won't mention, (which reduced the amount of changelogs) We are still
all working very hard to make this project as great as it can possibly be :D

EVTCHR Viewer can be found here:

http://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=407.0;attach=9555

You would need to find that EVTCHR and edit it.

Alternatively you can edit the event to do a normal kneeling pose there which would be UnitAnim SEQ 24,
since that one EVTCHR (I think it;s the only one) is completely useless being that it is a standard Kneeling/Critical animation
used at many other points in the game and in fact requires no EVTCHR at all

I completely explained how to fix this in this a while back in this thread below:    (9th post down)

Open a sheet in Palette Editor, highlight the the option you want (example: Basic Monster Sheet) and click save once the image shows itself.

Yea, I must totally suck, cause I don't even get those options :P

And Jon very nice :D I'm loving all these variations of different colors,
EDIT: Nvm I lost my scripts folder, that was the cause XD
3713
Haha yea, sorry I did leave a few things out that I didn't even think of since the way I draw out the map route is
confusing and 2 lines that should be there aren't since I don't need them to be XD as confusing as that may sound

I've had some stuff going on the last 2 days which delayed me in finishing the goal I had set for myself, that and I have
been very sick the last few days, so I was being a bit lazy. But I'm feeling better now and I should have another update
tomorrow, tho I will have my youngest daughter this weekend so the update may not be posted til monday

Just download palette editor, and open the Chocobo in it, there will be option to make all kinda previews.


Maybe I'm a tard but I have never seen that in Palette Editor O.o 
I just checked and couldn't find an option to do so either, Kage, which version of Palette Editor do you have??
3715
Well, nothing new has been posted in a few days so I would just like to once again let people know that in the last couple days I have
finished 2 or 3 more events (can't remember what the last one I counted in my last update was) So once again we are all working very
hard to make chapter 1 as awesome as it can be for all of you.

Also, I don't consider this a spoiler since you have no way of telling which character is represented by which line or where in the story this will fall,
so for anyone interested I thought i would show part of my event making process, for any event (except extremely simple ones) I have one of these
pictures, I started making them a while back to help me keep track of where someone was moving and when during an event, tho I have taken out all
sidenotes that would tell you this since this isn't intended to give anything away :P

These are very nice Mando, tho the green is a bit to much Olive colored in my opinion. but the rest are great
3718
Is there any way to edit this as of now? I'm assuming not but i thought i would ask. I always wondered how someone was able to get this

You're right- the eyes lost the whites! XD

Eternal suggested that I make the eyes red and make some kinda demonic chocobo outta her...


You should also do the white one with Red Eyes  :mrgreen:
