Greetings and hello to everyone! I am new to the site and new to the Hacking and I have to say I FREAKING LOVE IT!!!
You guys are geniuses on this. Awesome.
Well at any rate, I am not new to FFT. I've played it since it came out and have always wanted to do more with it. And now I fully can. I did experiment with CEP and FFTGS to edit files ingame but now I can make them permanent and it's so much easier. Plus I've seen some awesome patches people have.. Truely makes this game as HUGE as you want it.
Now since I just started, I pretty much have no idea how to even make my own version of the game. I do however know how to edit sprites into the game and somewhat into formation and portraits. I have experimented with making custom patches and adding characters into the game accordingly. (i.e. adding Cloud to the first fight in Gariland lol.) But I would like to know more as to how to add more/different job classes to the game w/o having to rewrite a current one. I would also like to know how to make cut scenes and even learn how to make my own story. I feel in time I will learn these things.
And again, thank you guys so much for having such an awesome thing going on here! I love it!!
