I guess my issue is that I wanted to add another character and have them appear in formation without messing with any other characters regularly in the game.
Having them appear in the formation screen is the restricting part, unless i'm not understanding what is linked to the sprites in unit.bin and wldface.bin. Basically my goal is to have two unique characters with sprites join at the beginning of the game, have them both appear in the formation, and not have any issues with them leaving my pt or disappearing.
From looking through the sprite lists/unit bin list, it seemed that one of the gaffgarion sprites could be used and one of the alma sprites, and it would work because I could replace their corresponding battle.bin sprites as well.
So maybe I'm missing something, or not understanding who I should go about fixing it.

I like the -ra,-ga,-ja better than the numbers. Numbers were only in other FF games to differentiate which type of magic was more powerful because they didn't have enough space for the text. They ended up running with it until someone decided that they could do a better job.
Besides if someone was really able to cast magic, saying "Fire 4" would sound bad. At least I think so.

I replaced the sprite (17), name (17), job (17) and skillset (20) of guest Gaffgarion to the the new custom character. The character also joins as unit ID 80, and had left him with everything that Gaffgarion because he is also using his unit sprite as well.
I used Gaffgarion's guest sprite because it was the only one that I could replace as a Type 1 sprite and keep the unit sprite space. Would I be able to change it to a different job and name and have it still keep the same unit sprite?

I guess I'll try that, my tester tried the battle without that character that was replacing gaffy and that character still ended up leaving the party after the battle.
Edit: well gaffy's unit ID is 17 and it still kicks my created character out of the party and has that created character do all of the talking. The only solution I can think of now is having the character join after Gaffy leaves.

New issue. I've replaced Gafgarrion Guest version with a character of my creation and changed every instance in the FFT Patcher where Gafgarrion appears as his guest version to his enemy version. I also made it so that Gafgarrion doesn't appear as a guest in the formation screen and just appears as a guest in the story battles.
Now my issue is that whenever he's supposed to speak in the first few Chapter 2 battles, my new made up character is the one that speaks as opposed to him. The other big issue is that during the fight where he betrays you, my made up character speaks, disappears when you defeat Gaffgarion and leaves my party as well.
Now I don't think that can be fixed through the patcher, unless the "Unit ID" should just be changed to 11 for the enemy version of Gaffgarion. I'm guessing I have to hex edit that battle/event so that the enemy version of Gaffgarion is the one who's supposed to do all those actions is the one prompted to do them. I'm guessing I should be changing this in battle.bin at offset 0x080 but if anyone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.

Just remember that some of the sprites aren't fully done so they may not have all of their animations. Other than that what you want to do is fairly easy and simple to do with the FFTPatcher.

Hmm that's wierd and yeah I know about the Head Shot thing with cura effect ... turns out quick bloody strike = cura effect. Don't know why the dead status isn't showing. Is it showing any status? If it is showing just one status then it is working fine.

Bugs and Suggestions /
April 28, 2009, 11:46:38 pm
I think the issue is that there are some topics in spam that should be in general, which seems to seamlessly make the two sections look alike.
- less cpu time
- Xboxlive gamertags
- Calling out Mr. BloodyBlade
- My hard drive died
All should probably be in general, instead of spam because of the content and I'm sure there are more topics in spam that should be in general. Where as in general,
- I know everyone can do it, but I did it to laugh a bit
- everything now makes sense
- I now have... (turns into a "spam" topic because of replies)
should probably be in spam.
I can see the confusion and why this topic should be made but there are obvious topics that definitely don't deserve to be in spam i.e. Our friend Rain4h and some that definitely do like i.e. Important announcement concerning spam.
Regardless it doesn't make that much of a difference to me as I don't post nearly as much as most active members here, but I felt this topic needed an extra perspective. The best solution, I think, would be more active moderation of the General Forum and more responsibility with posts/replies in that section which the topic "I now have..." clearly shows.

Water shot with the deadly sniper shows 2 times the damage (using a bow gun)
Yeah that, the Ranger abilities and the other elemental shots that deadly sniper have do that too so I'm going to have to find away around that.
By the way thank you LD and Goomba. I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds Zalge's issue odd.
Now Zalge, if you want to play my path without First Aid I would be more than happy to give you the fftpatcher file I have so you can use it on your own patch. If you want to help, which is what your comments on First Aid were an attempt to, then if you knew what hex editing or offsets I need to look at in battle.bin to fix the bugs that Dome posted would be great.

April 28, 2009, 08:10:03 pmQuote from: "Zalge"Quote from: "Kourama"Well play the game and let me know.Well, does it take any MP to use? If so, then it couldn't be abused that much.
Otherwise, all you would have to do is reduce an enemy's HP to critical, kill all the others, and then either surround it or chicken it then have your characters keep using first aid until they level up. And they could do it even again after that. Its how I normally train my characters, except using first aid only heals 1 HP and can therefore be abused to hell, as 2 characters need to get hit a couple times to deal a fair amount of damage then they and the other characters just have to keep using first aid to heal each other. However, this is only if it doesn't take any MP. W/ MP usage, it would still be abused, but not as much.
If you are looking to abuse the game in my patch its not going to be overtly difficult. I didn't make the patch to be ultra balanced. I made it to have some differences than than the original but with changes that my brother and I liked. If you can't help to abuse job/ability systems in the game, then that's on you.
Move-MP Up + MP Switch is still in the game, Brave/Faith modification is still in the game, if you don't want to play the patch because there are things that still can be abused then don't. I understand the basis of your criticism but I don't understand why you are making it if you haven't played the patch and since the patch wasn't made to take out all abuse able combinations. Basically I'm confused as to what you are really trying to point out or prove.

Yeah I know about that already, not sure what's causing it but looking into it. Zozma thought it was the first color being black in the palette, but it isn't so still trying to figure it out.
Quote from: "Zalge"IMO First aid sounds like it could be abused to hell as an easy way to train your characters.
However, I'll play it anyway.

Well here is my patch. The patch is pretty simple. No event edits, just some new abilities and changes, some new jobs with changes to current skillsets, item/equip changes, random battle changes and crapload of text edits. I have no name for it because it didn't really have set vision just things I wanted to change with input from my brother and it is what it is now.
Spoilers for most of the changes are below.
Changes
I would like to thank melonhead for a great set of programs, zodiac for a site with a community dedicated to hacking one of the greatest games ever made.
Special thanks goes to Razele for his great asm hacks, as well as everyone who helped me figure out the issues I was having with animations and inserting my new sprites. I'd also like to thank the community as a whole because some of your sprites and ideas inspired changes to this patch.
I hope whomever plays it enjoys it and please provide feedback.
One last thing, the Sephiroth and Vincent sprites from FF7 are both Type 2 sprites so if you want to change that on the custom sprites page Zodiac this is just a heads up as they are mislabled at the moment.
Edit: Updated attachment with new .ppf file. Anyone who started this patch earlier will need to start over because of the changes I've made to the shops as well as one of the characters you get in the 1st chapter.
Extra Changes:
- Added Defend Innate All
- Undead randomly reraise after dying but never change to crystals or treasure
Known Bugs:
- "Zack" sprite character does enemy gaffy's actions in the two fights you fight him in after he turns on you so don't use that character in those fights.
- Ranger, Deadly Sniper, both have moves that show damage or status 2x instead of once.
- Deadly Sniper portrait doesn't show the black colors in formation or battle formation.
Bug Fixes:
- "Zack" sprite works fine while gaffy is on your team.
- Head Shot works properly now.

I would like to thank melonhead for a great set of programs, zodiac for a site with a community dedicated to hacking one of the greatest games ever made.
Special thanks goes to Razele for his great asm hacks, as well as everyone who helped me figure out the issues I was having with animations and inserting my new sprites. I'd also like to thank the community as a whole because some of your sprites and ideas inspired changes to this patch.
I hope whomever plays it enjoys it and please provide feedback.
One last thing, the Sephiroth and Vincent sprites from FF7 are both Type 2 sprites so if you want to change that on the custom sprites page Zodiac this is just a heads up as they are mislabled at the moment.
Edit: Updated attachment with new .ppf file. Anyone who started this patch earlier will need to start over because of the changes I've made to the shops as well as one of the characters you get in the 1st chapter.
Extra Changes:
- Added Defend Innate All
- Undead randomly reraise after dying but never change to crystals or treasure
Known Bugs:
- "Zack" sprite character does enemy gaffy's actions in the two fights you fight him in after he turns on you so don't use that character in those fights.
- Ranger, Deadly Sniper, both have moves that show damage or status 2x instead of once.
- Deadly Sniper portrait doesn't show the black colors in formation or battle formation.
Bug Fixes:
- "Zack" sprite works fine while gaffy is on your team.
- Head Shot works properly now.
