Final Fantasy Tactics: Kind Of PSP (Current Version: 2.6)

[3lric]

Altho PSP is region free, there is still a difference between the PAL and NTSC versions

[Eternal]

FDC and I found the issue, I think. We're playing around with it now.

[Eternal]

Okay, so, I'm going to try and make a fix for this tomorrow. Currently, it looks like the problem is that the base ISO I'm using was mislabelled as US when it's really EUR... which is why EUR ISOs were working. I'll try and get my hands on a US ISO tomorrow to release a fix/update.

[Eternal]

Was hoping to have an update up today, but my internet is being screwy. Doesn't help that these elections are distracting. >_>

Everything will be hopefully put together tomorrow. Sorry about the wait!

As I'm testing a playthrough, might as well critique what I found. I'm done with chapter one, and it went pretty well. I like that I can buy items everywhere, so I don't have to backtrack as much. As for the battles, I found magic pretty awesome, but I thought Vanilla was the same in that regard. Quite a lot storybattles are killing one dude, and they die quickly with 3 black mages. This is especially nice since you don't have to grind much, which I loathe quite a bit. I guess the party will end up with monks, a summoner and another mage, and Ramza can switch as needed. Then the side-quests, which should be harder, and that is where the testing really begins. Oh well, I might just use lioneditor to quickly gain some jp. Time to see the world as it is, and become the Beoulve Ramza does not care to be, in chapter 2.

Magic is really good in Chapter I and most of Chapter II, yeah. Chapter II and III tend to be easier with debuffing magic than direct damage magic. Summoners are kind of meh right now, and that's something I'm looking at changing in the near future. Thanks for the feedback so far!

[Tatzelveln]

No rush man, my internet just got installed today making it easier for me to post, so once again let me know if there's anything I can do.

[Eternal]

Okay, so, in the meantime (and until otherwise stated) USE AN EUR ISO! That should fix most peoples' crashing problems.

After multiple attempts, I can't get this to work. I have a EUR ISO, patched it with PPFomatic, and tried to convert to an eboot with popstation. But all I get is a black screen.

[Eternal]

Hmm, what firmware are you using?

[bignickm27]

6.60 pro-B10.

It may not be converting to an eboot correctly. I've never had so much trouble doing it before.

[Eternal]

WotL is a pain to work with in general, quite honestly. I've been playing for months with it, trying to get it to work for everyone, but it's a total mess. I'd try reconverting the ISO again, and if that fails, acquire a new EUR ISO from a different source.

[bignickm27]

Just to clarify, here's what I'm supposed to do?

-Obtain a EUR ISO for WotL
-Patch it with PPFomatic
-Use popstation to convert the patched ISO to an eboot file

Is this correct? I think my problem may lie with popstation. When using this program, do I need to click on "Change Game Save and Game ID?" If I don't, then I get an error message recommending I use a BIN+CUE or IMG+CCD. Then it says the game ID is invalid. To prevent that message, I just have to assign it a game ID by clicking the aforementioned button, but there is no corresponding ID for WotL to choose from. It only gives me PSX game IDs. I tried using the PSX FFT game ID, and this allows the conversion to actually complete, but then the game doesn't work.

[Eternal]

Nope, you just patch the EUR ISO and put it on your PSP and you're good to go.

[bignickm27]

How do you get an ISO to run on your PSP? It always says "corrupted data."

EDIT: It looks like I got it. Just had to make a separate folder called "ISO."

[Eternal]

Hopefully it works for you now!

[Eternal]

My PSP is up and running again, which means I can continue testing the next version out. Thanks for your patience!

[Derextreme]

posted this in the psx thread by accident earlier, lol.

i started playing 2.4 last night. i'm up to dorter trade with no problem so far. fantastic work, keep it up!

Idiotic Bug Report ('cause yeah, I saw something screwy just now):

I noticed you can commit seppuku with Armor Break.

When I Charmed a red-capped Goblin, the guy damn-near killed himself using Armor Break on himself.  I guess it's flagged so you can target yourself, as the original parameters must be set to a formula wherein you can target yourself.

But that doesn't make sense and makes my brain hurt like fuck.

That... just isn't supposed to happen.  I guess it's different when no-one's around, you can Armor Break yourself to death?

Lost the Charm; figured he'd go after that damned Chocobo....
