Title: FFT: Arena Text Edits
Post by: PX_Timefordeath on September 10, 2010, 12:56:19 am
As of now, we're thinking of cleaning up the text edits so you can see what everything does in game. For abilities, FFM needs help on the text edits, so we need others to do it in this format.
Formula of ability {New Page} Range, Area, Vertical, MP, CT, Reflectable {New Page} Effects, everything else, etc.

We are doing items first. I'll post the item format when I get home tonight.
EDIT: I also need ideas on what to write for job descriptions.
EDIT2: Here is the format for Helmets/Armors/Hats/Robes/Clothes/Ribbons
HP, MP, P-EV, M-EV, PA, MA, Speed, Move(in that order!) Status effects(Always, Initial, Immune) Elemental effects(Absorb, Null, Half, Weak, Strengthen) Can be Equipped by
If they don't appear, skip to the next bit
Here is an example
{Color 08}HP:{Color 00}70 {Color 08}MP:{Color 00}40 {Color 08}MA:{Color 00}1{Newline} {Color 08}Can be equipped by:{Color 00} Sq Sc Pa Pr Wi TM Su Or Ge Sm
Thanks to Eternal248 for the suggestion of changing Cancel: to Immune:
{Color 08}HP:{Color 00}70 {Color 08}MP:{Color 00}55{Newline} {Color 08}Immune:{Color 00}Dead{Newline} {Color 08}Absorb:{Color 00}Holy{Newline} {Color 08}Can be equipped by:{Color 00} Sq Sc Pa Pr Wi TM Su Or Ge Sm
If anyone can help out, it would be greatly appreciated. I am right now doing all the robes, so if you wish to help, any of the other armors are free for the taking. Don't post a .fftext here, just post the edit like I did above (you don't have to include the screenshots) and I can easily add them in.
EDIT4: Another example for those who want to start accessories.
{Color 08}PA:{Color 00}1 {Color 08}Move:{Color 00}1{Newline} {Color 08}Can be equipped by:{Color 00} All classes

Decided to do the Helmets real quick. I haven't tested these but from the format, there shouldn't be any errors unless I missed something.

All good, except for 1 thing. The class is Paladin now, not Knight. I've editted your post to fix it up so we have more good examples.
I should have mentioned it earlier.
The order is the order the job appears on the job wheel. The only changes would be Scholar (Sc) will be where Chemist used to be, Paladin (Pa) where Knight used to be, and Chemist (Ch) where Calculator/Sage used to be.

The Can be equipped by line is too long, so it'll either have to be cut with a {Newline} somewhere or do something like "All Classes but Pa Ln Sm" but I wanted to post them here so you can make a decision on how you would prefer them to be formatted so I can change them.
Edit: Fixed to new format

I need help to rename all Items. I plan to do it before 129 is released. I also need help for Item palettes. If you have suggestions, I would very much appreciate it.

Quote from: "FFMaster"I need help to rename all Items. I plan to do it before 129 is released.
Got no idea what you're talking about (aren't they already renamed?) but if you explain in a way suited to the meanest understanding I'll give it a try, sure.

Well, there are some Items which have names that don't suit them at all. Can't think of any right now, but I think that we should give the Items appropriate names and icons.
Title: Re: FFT: Arena Text Edits
Post by: pokeytax on December 16, 2010, 12:24:57 pm
This is all I would change. I don't really see the point in changing, say, Diamond Armor to Peacekeeper Mail just because it cancels Berserk, especially when these items are still subject to change, but I can see why anyone would prefer more descriptive names or no change at all. It's just what I came up with.
Short Edge Choji Edge Mythril Shield Gaea Shield Gold Shield Thunder Shield Platina Shield Storm Shield Barbuta Genji Helmet Genji Helmet Barbuta Carabini Mail Genji Armor Genji Armor Carabini Mail

I agree with pokeytax about the "knife" issue. It suggested names would also be consistent with wanting all the Ninjutsu (and Draw Out) skills to be Japanese; speaking of which, you should probably just change Bizen Boat and Heaven's Cloud to their PSP equivalents of Osafune and...whatever Heaven's Cloud is (Ame-no-something I can't recall right now).
In the same vein, Ninja Knife should probably get renamed "Neko-Te" or "Neko-ken", similar to pokeytax's suggestions.
That said, outside of his suggested changes to axes and shields, I can't say I really agree with wanting to switch the names around for things unless there's a good reason I'm not seeing. (Also, Masamune is already used for another sword, we can't use that for Kiyomori, unless he was suggesting switching that one as well.)
