how can i change text in image?

Quote from: maroon on June 13, 2025, 04:48:25 amhow can i change text in image?

From what i know, there currently is no way to do that in the Editor, in another older editor you can do so with the help of Crystaltile and such, but since this editor changes everything from the base vanilla game's code, i'm not sure if the image displays would be in the same places as in the crystaltile.

can anyone figure out the problem

Quote from: maroon on June 03, 2025, 06:46:56 amit is possible for hume race can learn ability for other race like nu mou for example seer learn esunaga
or nu mou learn goblin attack for beastmaster how can do that

For an ability to be learnable:

• The Ability must be assigned an AP slot for the unit's race (see 1st attached image)
• The Ability must be in the Job's Ability Set (see 2nd attached image)

Afaik there is no specific limit on abilities per Job. But races only have 200 AP slots each. This is mainly a problem for Hume which only has 1 unused slot in Vanilla. If you want to add more abilities to Hume you'll have to remove some as well.

The Mix routine is left over from an unfinished Job so I'm not sure if it works at all.

As Zeke mentioned the Editor can't help with that and the images might not be in the same places as in a vanilla ROM. You would have to find it on your own with Crystaltile. I will probably add a way to import/export most images at some point in the future, but not any time soon.

Send me the log file and I'll take a look

So I had a small holiday from work and played around whit making NuMou able to enter water, first tried to simply changing Black Mage "Movable places" value to 2 to allow the unit to enter water, this was something that I tried with the old editors bu because there are no in water sprite the game would lock up. Now whit the new edit I did a quick test by simply assigning the Hume Black Mage as a unit alternative sprite in the editor and.... it worked. Even the idle animation remained the NuMou but as son as they did an action it would change to Black Mage. Then I tried to edit the in water sprites to make them NuMou but ran into some problems, seen the work on another thread about making a Ezell in battle sprite I think I missed something in the pallet but it looks the it is possible, just a lot of work.

Small quality of life changes that could be done to the editor that I realized when trying this
- Make the Movable places into a drop down instead of a simple value
- Have the Import/Export buttons remember the last folder it was used

Again thank to Rurasachi for such an amazing tool

the first image show wrong abilities while second image show correct abilitie

what is animation fix

It's should definitely be possible yeah. The way the palettes work is a bit odd, especially for the in-water sprites. The color of the water is not part of the unit's palette. The game gets it from somewhere else during gameplay (I believe I mentioned this in the other thread as well).

I wasn't sure what values were valid for Movable Places at the time but that's a good idea.
Remembering folders for Import/Export is a good idea as well.

I'm not sure what's going on here.

It allows all playable races to use any weapon. Normally Hume can't use Spears and Rapiers for example. With the animation fix they can.

It looks like one of the units in Formation 9 has an invalid Secondary Ability. I'm not sure how that can happen but I'll look into it. Make sure it's set to an ability that is actually in the Secondary Sbility Set. You can probably fix it by setting it to something else and back again. If that doesn't work try doing it for all the secondary abilities on all units in that formation

doesn't wanna let me load a rom it gives me the error

"java.nio.BufferUnderflowException

If you send me the logs I can check what the problem is. The error indicates that some data is shorter than expected.
If it's a vanilla rom make sure it's the USA version. The editor is not compatible with other versions.
If it's a modded rom then there's something else wrong with it and the logs should say exactly what it is.

uh.. i dunno how to upload a file here.. also yea it is a modded rom it's the shrike 1.2 patch

Quote from: Divinehero on June 21, 2025, 02:21:45 pmuh.. i dunno how to upload a file here.. also yea it is a modded rom it's the shrike 1.2 patch

Iirc the Shrike patch used a broken Nightmare module to set Abilities on Equipment. The broken module sets the wrong id for Dancer, Bard, Heritor, and Agent. If you check the logs it should tell you exactly what it's failing to load (probably near the bottom). You'll have to edit that item with a Nightmare module to fix it. If you just set the job to something else you can set it back afterwards when you open it with my editor.

i assume it's.. this?

Oh right it's the ability descriptions, I guess the equipment thing was a different mod.
This is a bug in the ffta2 text editor when a description ends in a newline. It writes the newline bytes in the wrong order iirc. You'll need to open it with the text editor and find the descriptions that have an extra blank line at the end.

oof.. guess i gotta comb through every ability that's..gonna take a bit especially if what i'm looking for isn't terribly obvious at a glance

can anyone figure out it seem like when a play seem normal after that it stuck can't play

Seems like you deleted the .properties files or something. Did you extract the file from the zip? because if you try to run in from inside it could cause problems.
