Title: Can you change portraits with ENTD?
Post by: busterff7 on January 01, 2013, 04:25:00 pm
As the title says, I'm wondering if you can change the unit's portrait using ENTD. I know how to change the sprite and job of a unit in a specific battle but the portrait doesnt change. I replaced one of the generic male squires in the first battle at Gariland Magic City to Zalbag, and everything worked fine except the portrait was still that of the male squire. If its possible to fix this, I would be very thankful to find out how. Thanks!

I think you may have replaced the squire with the unique portrait in that battle, which if you want to change you would have to go into the event and remove an instruction etc...

This problem should be solved simply by making zalbag a different squire in that battle, because you copied over the unique one.

You actually change this in the attack.out GUI its really quite simple :P

Oh, right. It's the Attack.out editor that edits the in-battle portrait, and the event instruction that edits the text boxes portrait, right?

Where can I find the Attack.out editor?

Attack.out GUI is on the FFH home page.

And not quite Jumza, the attack.out gui can change 1 port per event to one from WLDFACE based on the unit ID used.

In events you can call portraits from EVTFACE by using a ChangePort command.
