Someone has the Hex table of FFTA?

My Relative searcher doesn't work for some reason (https://gyazo.com/23494ff4664b4cdb42620dba981e5cc4?token=2c14c203926a76b87dd1336a17b21714) so i can't get them by myself.
Someone mind sharing?

I don't have the time or inclination right now to parse search results for you, but you could try searching the FFTA & FFTA2 board for the search term "text"

https://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?board=47.0

The search bar should be at the top right. The newest version of the forum software doesn't let one search by URL apparently, so I can't post a search for you. Bit of a bummer.

I did a search real quick. It looks like there are a couple threads about editing text in FFTA (or FFTA2, since you didn't specify which one), and there's definitely a table file in there for at least one of them.

Other than that you could try Data Crystal, which is the wiki for Romhacking Dot Net.
https://datacrystal.romhacking.net/wiki/Final_Fantasy_Tactics_Advance

Here are the relevant string entries.

Other than that it's not optimal to:
1. Post a reply on a multi-game board without specifying which game you're asking about.
2. Make another thread on another board that's basically a reply to your original thread, instead of just editing your original thread with more info.

Making a new thread for every little thing makes it harder for people to track what you're doing, and generally makes the forums (which are as much a reference as a discussion area) harder to search in the future. For the same reason, please make your thread title more descriptive, and go more in-depth on what game you're working on and what exactly you're trying to do in your post.

To be honest you could just make a thread called "Editing text in FFTA" or whatever and update it periodically with your struggles, lots of people (including me) want to do the same thing you do and it will generate a lot more interest than hiding what you're trying to do and just posting arcane technical questions.

It looks like you got a reply on one of your RHDN threads already:
https://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php?topic=35592.0

Usually when I get a reply on a post that answers the question I had, and I cross-posted a question to multiple forums, I edit all the posts I made to include the solution to my problem. I do this so people in the future can find the solution.

Good luck and I look forward to your contributions to FFTA/2 hacking!

Nice idea, i am going to post a thread which covers everything i learnt until now about editing text on FFTA.
Moreover i think the quest is almost finished so it won't be needed a lot of edit.
Didn't know about that datacrystal site is awesome! thanks for sharing!
