Having a little trouble =/... Let me describe the scenario... I have successfully put custom sprites in game as enemies. Which I wanted to do, and when you would defeat them you have the option to recruit them. Alright, as I enter the game nothing out of the ordinary. When I get into battle everything seems to be according to plan, but then the equiptment I gave them does not show up, so they are basiclly unarmed. Once I defeated them I recruited them no problem, Once I look at my party rouster I see a chapter 1 version Ramza sprite as the sprite I chose. For instance, in this case I recruited a Delita chapter 4, but in my party I see a chapter 1 Ramza instead, alright no problem thats no big deal. I look at his equiptment and he seems to have all of the weapons and armor I assigned him on FFTpatcher. I tried him out in battle and once I got on the battlefield he lost all of his equiptment. What happened? Once the battle was won I checked his equiptment yet again, and all of his equiptment was there. Is there anything that I have done wrong? I tried switching classes and trying on different armors and weapons, If I took off an armor there would be no hp decrease, and when I put it on there would be no increase. Can anyone try and help me understand how to fix this?
Thanks,
Creag4 =P
For one, certain sprites don't have formation sprites and will default to Ramza or other odd characters. That's normal.
Secondly, did you use ALMA at all? That would explain why certain gear may not show up if their job can't use it.
I didn't use Alma but I did use ajora once things didn't work out with her so I took her off? Is that why?
I mean the program ALMA. It's a hack- you'd know if you used it.
No, I dont recall using ALMA, let alone I do not even have it. Im trying to re-do a patch, maybe I did something wrong.
The only things im using are a combiation of FFTPatcher, ShiShi, and CDmage.
Random thought here, but could it be something weird like the game classifying the new units as monsters? The in-battle game logic might do something along the lines of "Monsters couldn't have equipment, so don't give them any in battle", but then on the formation screen, it's still there? I don't know. Keep in mind, if you used a job above 0x5D or so for the units, the game might just assume those are monsters.
You might be onto something there... I'm going to try and look into that, thanks Glain.
