Title: FFTPatcher question
Post by: DERIDEX120 on March 27, 2013, 06:29:18 pm
I'm not even sure how to use this program. I'm assuming I start with "decrypt ISO?"
when I try to do that, no ISO's show up on PSP. On further investigation, the filetype of the game is CSO.  same with the text editor.  anyone have any suggestions?

You have a compressed ISO, uncompress it first with PSP ISO Compressor

Okay.  also, is there a way to add new sprites to the game, OR edit scenes in the story?  like the scene with delita and valmafra, for example?

One of the programs you obtained in your FFTPatcher Suite should be the ShiShi Sprite Editor.  Assuming your FFTPatcher Suite is correctly compatible with War of the Lions (anything .457 and below should be I think), that will let you change the in-game sprites via restructuring the ISO.

Sweet. I've been up for like a day and a half now modding things by trial and error.
one last question though. I see under "patches" people have made modified versions of the game, how is it they've modified the storyline? as far as changing up characters and battle speech and so forth?

I had a pretty good idea for a story. It entails a completely different storyline, new characters, different bosses, and new consequences for losing a battle other than "game over."
It would take me a really long time to redo all the sprites though. :/
