Hey, would it be possible to rip the textures from the maps, I ask because I would enjoy making a (large) FFT style map.  :wink:

Oh pitiful shadow lost in the darkness, bringing torment and pain to others. Oh damned soul wallowing in your sin, perhaps...it is time to die

Quote from: "Cheetah"Here is a description of all the files unique sized files in the Unknown folder of War of the Lions. I just have a quick description of each, maybe someone else can say how they match up to the PSX names.

fftpack31 = Mission Objectives, plus some random weird pointers at the top and font samples before each mission objective.

fftpack889 = Looks like preview shots of all the maps. I couldn't get a good look at them, but they seemed to just be small black and white pics of each of the areas battle maps. Not sure how they are used.

fftpack19 = Location Names, I believe for all the battle maps.

fftpack938 = Appears to just be data

fftpack936 = opening logo pic?, maybe specific to the PSP version

fftpack770 = Something interesting, has some sprites, maybe portraits but I think it is compressed or something because I could get any of it to look right. This is probably what needs to be looked into more.

fftpack881 = data

Files that are 128KB = Map textures

That is it for now. Everything else is just map textures, spell effects, or I think data. I'm thinking this is where a lot of the new content is stored.
As seen in: This Topic

Well, he says you can learn more about the programs used to get the textures from some site, but that site is dead/down.  :(

Map textures are found in the MAP folder of the ISO. Using some sprite viewing programs you can take a look at them, but I have had trouble figuring out the palettes for them. Definitely read Gomtuu's Maps thread, you can a learn a lot from that.

Sounds good, I doubt they have large palettes, and if I can't find their palette I can always make one. :)
