Title: Need help 10-28-12 Vent <or> Skype possible Help understanding the FFTPatcher
Post by: Hero on October 27, 2012, 01:05:15 pm
I will currently be busy today with a birthday party and work soon after till around 9:30. I was wondering if anyone here wanted to help me tinker around or teach me the tabs I don't yet fully grasp. To me this wouldn't take too much time at all once explained correctly since this program seems so straight forward and easy to use.

Who knows maybe I could meet some of you and make some friends. Also I won't trouble anyone with real hacking such as Hex editing and things .. I can learn this real quick from a tut or book imho. I am really interested in this so if someone has any free time late tonight or preferably tomorrow, please let me know.

Thanks everyone! Been much help already I can see that the editor program can make a ppf file to patch alot in the game. After I learn this enough I will moved onto tactext which will also require tuts before I dabble with that.

LMK

our usual form of immediate conversation takes place on IRC. On the tabs at the top of the forums (home, help, search, wiki, etc.) there's a PJIRC button. Click that and it'll take you to our chat browser. Or, you could download MIRC and connect that way.. so that you don't get disconnected every 10 minutes. We can answer most of your questions on there. Seems like you've found alot of the information you need. The message I originally linked you (and Raven linked you as well i think) contained the "important links" page. At the top of that page there's a link to the Tutorial Index, where you'll find most of the relevant tutorials. I don't think there's an FFTPatcher tutorial, which is why i'm pointing you towards IRC. ASM/hex editing will be much easier to explain on IRC as well as the misnomer-type material like the animations tab of the Patcher.

Thanks alot, I will look into the IRC chats.

I would prefer some-sort of microphone conversation ... but for now IRC will do. Maybe someone there will join me in a convo since skype is free .. or I can just ask away..

Thanks again
