Final Fantasy Hacktics

Hi,

Thanks for answering.

This month i've started an attempt to "map" formulas routines in a spreadsheet.
What a mess ! I make nightmares with jal - jal again - "uber jal" - counter jal - hamedo jal routines   
But it gives a clear view of which formula can proc status or not and how status is inflicted.
I know this will require ASM hacking, but i was persuaded that i've seen this hack somewhere on the forum.

I guess i was wrong 

Hey, I'm relatively new to modding PSP games and FFT but I have a lot of experience messing around with tons of other games. I've been playing WotL on PPSSPP and I wanted to give LionEditor a try, but I keep running into the same issue. Every time I try to load the Lioneditor.bin file in Lioneditor, it just never loads. I've followed all the steps to a T: I set encrpytsave to false, I boot the game up and create a few manual saves to be safe, I make a backup of my FFTA.SYS file, change the name on that to Lioneditor.bin, but every time I try to load it, it never loads. Is there something I'm missing? Am I maybe using an old version of WotL that's incompatible with LionEditor or something? I'm running LionEditor 0.147 if that helps.

Don't know how I missed this, but no.

The kills are per unit, not party wide. As is the job Mastery.

Neither of those will be achieved from setting Cid to DK requirements in the Patcher, either.

Still enjoying, but stuck on the Luso mission. Sometimes he dies before my first turn. Sometimes on my second. My party dies quickly after-- I can't seem to get Shell on them quick enough. Also reflect rings and the White Robe don't seem to help...thanks!

To explain Nyzer, (despite being severely underknowledged and I really should not be stepping in),
Several formulas do indeed have a no Status or "NS" condition that completely prevents the skill from inflicting any status ailments or buffs. Using the FFTPatcher, you can scroll through and find out which ones they are.
if you're thinking of changing this, consider delving into their Routines to see what's similar about them, that would cause NS.
consider reading This too

Nope.

I'm in the middle of working on my own tactical RPG as well in hopes to create more fun FFT-like games too. Really awesome to see more people trying to keep this genre alive. :3

I stand by PSX 1.13. It is so simple and reliable. ePSXe is a lot of manual work, I used to spend hours tweaking all of the visual settings and it never looked right. PSX just seems to work by default, I've not had any problems with Tactics running on it. Most other games too for that matter.

I did a search and although there are some ASM patches floating around not in FFTorgASM by default (like the AI uses Protect/Shell proactively), I can't find any hack that changes that.

Might try asking on the FFHacktics Discord channel if one of the hackers there can help you.

I'm pretty sure all formulas can inflict status. Do you mean inflict 100% on hit?

On any damaging skill, change the value of the Inflict Status to cause it to apply a status. It's 20% by default. For weapons, the on hit effect is changeable in a similar way.
