Well unfortunately this is not the only time this happens. Anytime he does something out of the norm
(such as turn his head, nod, pull his sword out) these are known as EVTCHR and they (in the simpliest terms)
are essentially drawings frame by frame of an action taking place that wouldn't normally take place in
battle. They are drawn with that Vanilla characters Frame.


In order to take care of all of these you would have to edit each EVTCHR using Ramza to look like the Ramza
that you are using. Or you can edit all of these out of events, which i can't see being alot of fun.

So unfortunatley either way it's not going to be an easy fix. But unless you are planning on this being a Huge
patch that you intend to spend a year or more making I think you should be able to look past it

Hope this helps

Wow. Yeah that looks like a ton of work.

I wasn't really planning on making a patch or anything, just playing around with sprites for personal use. I really hate that fugly purple spike default outfit he wears... Oh well, I guess I'll just live with the glitches in the cutscenes for now. Maybe once I'm a lot better at making sprites I'll give it a try. I have the free time but getting into FFT modding seems really overwhelming. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it eventually if I keep at it.

Anyways, I appreciate the help Elric , thanks man

Thanks for the fast response guys

I'm gonna try playing around with it later tonight. Will post results.

Is this pose the only instance where this happens for Ramza or is there a bunch I have to edit?

Sorry if this has been answered before but I couldn't find any topics describing this problem

I'm trying to use a custom sprite for ch2-3 Ramza, I installed it with Shishi r04, it looks great until Ramza goes into certain positions in events. Like when he kneels in front of the princess in the opening orbonne monastery cutscene.

It reverts to his default sprite but still uses the updated palette (see attached screenshot). Nothing game breaking but it looks kinda weird.

How can I fix this?

Is there a separate sprite for events I need to update as well?
