I found some stuff that should most likely interest you a LOT.

Special Job & Sprite sheet link (by sectors)

What does that mean?

When I find an easy way to increase the ROM size, the limit of usable sprites will basically be the number of jobs.

It would also allow to use up to 512 effects files. (I found the sector offsets for those as well)

Love what you're seeing? https://supportus.ffhacktics.com/ 💜 it's really appreciated

Anything is possible as long as it is within the hardware's limits. (ie. disc space, RAM, Video RAM, processor, etc.)

I'm slightly confused but excited.

So you must mean that we would have more available sprites to use and we wouldn't have to overwrite existing ones correct?

Have you ever looked at the PSP version of this game for some of the answers to these questions?

the number of jobs, wow there are quite a few jobs with repeat sprites as well.. blank jobs,

but imagine it.... for every job (even dupes of characters you could have a different sprite? that would kick ass)

First step would be to relink all dupes to their original sprite sheet, then we can relink any job we want with the old dupe edited sprite sheet.

like KANBA & AGURI are both agrias
We can just take both agrias' jobs and set both to AGURI

KANBA is now completely free to use.

By the way, we will be able to change sprite types too. :D
Don't know how I forgot to mention that.

I had noticed about the sprite type thing, though I am uncertain if it's related... I took a quick look in the Hex Editor and each Type 1 started with certain hex, each tye 2, different hex, so on and so forth, odds are we could do this right now if the information becomes that much more fleshed out (or if it's "really" that simple.

sadness can be turned to delight.

does this also mean we are a step closer to changing what menu sprite and world portrait is linked to each battle sprite?

New user, just curious, did anything ever come of this? Still a work in progress? I love FFT, and somehow I failed to discover this place until now. I'd love to play the game with a party of customs, but there doesn't seem to be enough room to get more than a few in without overwriting something the game actually uses.
