Final Fantasy Hacktics

I'm slowly still working! Proper documentation is something I should really get on- largely notated in a notebook and swimming around in my head at the moment

I'm mostly focused on making about 3 more maps to actually have a real ending and then working backward from there to smooth out all the edges and make sure things are balanced.

Awesome! Thank you Porklin!

Really need to document better.  For me and everyone else!  It's been slow going, but I hope to keep adding little by little.

The battle against atma weapon on the floating continent is the last one for this release.  There are 4 more battles that I am working on but not yet ready to be included yet.

It's been an entire year, but I finally got around to updating this patch.  Along with actually being playable to the end of the floating continent, a few additions have been included.  Maps/battles from south figaro basement, cave to the sealed gate and the magitek facility have been included.  Added chakram type weapons for Locke.  Gave all characters innate move-find and added goodies to each map.

The old save files will not be compatible with this release.  Hope you enjoy!

Maps!

I feel like this is a bit of a tough judgement for me to make, but on the scale of vanilla to 1.3, probably around a 4 or 5.  There are definitely ups and downs in difficulty but I think that may be a fair average.

Sorry, neither of them are recruit-able.

Sorry about that! There was a bug right at the end of the event.  I will try to put out an updated fix here in a week or less.  You will have to replay that battle once I release it.

Merry Christmas!

I have had this thing on the back burner tinkering here and there and I wanted to have something to play with, so I decided to release a demo of the FF6:Tactics that has been shown off in videos.  This mod hasn't progressed as far as I would like, but there is still work happening!

Hi Hloy2Tack! I've done a bunch of cleaning up on events and finally managed to make a functional boomerang style weapon type for Locke. I believe I have hit most the early "beta" release plans for a WoB demo.  I need to sweep through a bit more and update my credits lists.

Hopefully I should have a World of Balance Beta out in a few weeks. I had been working on another map with my eyes on a couple more, but it might be better to just release what I have.   

I'm not familiar with Puddles Pity Party, but it's looking good!

This might require using another emulator?  I don't know about that particular emulator, but with duckstation, it normally loads the latest savestate related to an ISO when you just boot it up (which can cause issues with modded games).  It is possible that another save-state is causing an issue. 

Otherwise, I am not sure.

There shouldn't be any difference between this mod and pretty much any other on Hacktics.  I have modified anything that would alter save data.  I would assume that it has something to do with the vita itself.

I finally remembered to upload a couple of maps!  The airship image doesn't look great due to some clipping when I took the picture in ganesha, but doesn't seem to have that issue in game.  The second, "burning house" is the indoor slums/hospital map, but it's on fire!

edit: Re upload of burning house to fix some stuff

Cool stuff Bladegrasp!  I debated making a mod like based on BoF!  I believe that Valkirst has made several BoF sprites including Teepo and his dragon form. 

Good Luck!

That looks really cool! That map just begs for cool edits!

Final Fantasy 6: Tactics
-> Status updates/planning

- Short Term Goal:
   -Release a World of Balance Beta Release
      -Current Battles are: Narshe, Magi-Tek/escape Figaro,Vargas/Mt. Kolts, Ultros, Phantom Train, Narshe team battle, Zozo, Burning house, Floating Continent (would like to add Magi-tek Facility and maybe South Figaro for an exra Celes focused battle.  Might release a beta without these.)
      -Needs:
      -more item and ability description fixes.  Debating using the Pride's Attribute rewrite to make the genji gloves add 2 swords instead of being an equip-able ability.)
      -Sprites for Kefka and Atma weapon (also a human Shiva if a Magi-tek facility was added.) Sprites for the "magi-tek" and Ultros need to be worked on - especially Ultros.
      -Minor event work in a few battles and slighlty bigger work for the Floating Continent. The "FC" needs an event to trigger the path to the statues (still not a lot of work)
      -Need to add some event work to make characters unusable for various battles.  Using the "missing for proposition" flag will allow exclusions where it makes sense.  Shadow should come and go and Terra shouldn't be an option for the Zozo for obvious reasons.
      -Some ablitliy work needs to happen.  Strago still needs some abilities added in.  Haven't created a proper "Bum rush" ability for Sabin- might just hold off for a later release.
      -Update proper acknowldegements for sprites/asm/maps etc.      

      -Wants:
      -Would like to improve some of the current sprites
      -Some weapons could use a little adjustment to look more like they should from FF6
      -Would like to add a new weapon type: chakram.  Locke would really shine more if he was the one character with a ranged weapon type.  Tallcal has done some amazing work in this department and I would like to dig in long term.
      -Implement "Jump" as additional skillset. Currently Edgar has "equip" innately so that tools can be switched out more easily.  If jump was added to him, it would break the display and cause graphical glitches.  This might mean it has to be a choice between the 2.
      -Add a few more FF6 songs to the current selection
- Long Term Goal
   -Release a mod that ends with a God of Magic battle

      -Need to pick ~10 iconic battles.  Currently leaning towards:
         -Battle with Phunaba (however it's spelled)
         -Tower of Kefka
         -Battle/Recruit Umaro
         -Multiple Dragon Battles
         -Damn, It's tough to pick from so many!
      -Need to make about ~10 maps
      -Need to make at least another 5 or 6 sprites (thankfully Umaro is finished and ~90% of God Kekfa)

Updated 1.2 beta added: December 25th 2024 (Full year between updates)

Unfortunately I haven't set up new move-find for the new maps.  There are definitely some spots that would be great spots to put items (hello grand father clock!)
