G'morning/afternoon/evening everybody.
I've been poking in this forum for a while to get less bad at tinkering with FFT, but I've run into some issues that my Search-Fu has not been able to help me with.
Using the PSX version of the game, I've been working on learning how to create custom jobs/skillsets. The first issue I'm running into is the Job Name not appearing in all the fields in the Formation Screen. Right now, I'm playing around with Rad/Alicia/Lavian to see what
- (Alicia/Lavian) Open Roster screen, go to unit that has a new custom job. Job Name appears on the banner. Go to Ability Tab, and Skillset Name appears (in the area where you can set the reaction/support/movement abilities). I go to Learn, and the window that appears, there's no Job Name. I've been digging around in TacText, but I can't seem to find what I need to edit to get the Job Name to appear. I've tried placing these units with different 'unused' jobs (and linking the skill set I made to it), but the Job Name doesn't show up. The Skillset IDs I'm using for these are 4E and 4F in FFTPatcher - using the FFT Mod Helper spreadsheet, these are listed as Unused Skillsets.
- For Rad, I used Simon's job and the Skillset 4D. This job shows up in the Ability --> Learn menu.
- For all three of these custom jobs, they show as "Mastered" in the Ability --> Learn screen. In a battle, I have access to all of the abilities. I'm not sure what to do here, because in Abilities, I've given them a JP cost (higher than any amount of JP a unit can start with), so I'm not sure why they're all Mastered.
In TacText, I'm sure I always modified all three when I did anything, but I must have missed something. I've looked in Jon's Character Creation Tutorial to use the specific fields in TacText to edit, and from what I can see, I've modified everything he says to do in his guide.
I'm sure this is User Error, but I've been bumbling around for a couple days with no success. If there's a relevant link/post that I missed, a link to it would be appreciated.
All the tools and info here has been great, and I'm having lots of fun tinkering with the game. Thanks in advance for any help, and apologies in advance if I didn't explain something well enough.
