Whoops. I made some changes to how the config (.properties) file is read in v1.3.4 which causes it to crash if the file doesn't exist. It's fixed now in v1.3.5

can anyone figure out how to fix it

Thank you for making this editor -- thus far, it's been super fun to mess around in it! I wanted to ask quickly if there's any way to reduce the number of strings in a cutscene event? Simply removing strings at the end willy nilly freezes the game, unfortunately.

I also wanted to ask if it's possible to get rid of the speech bubble for strings whose text I've erased. For instance, when I take a string wherein Luso says something and remove the text, his little speech bubble/portrait still pops up -- just without any dialogue.

Thank you for your time!

Did you by chance use the unused abilities to make the new ones, it may be that the name locations where never assigned in the ROM itself so it pull them wrongly since they were never meant to be used.

On other things managed to get the NuMou black mage working in the water, for anyone that want to try their hand with this here is what I did:
In preparation I would recommend to apply the "animation fix" from the patch tab before starting so that no matter wich unit you choose to copy as base will have the full set of animations. Edit: If you want to try this be sure to read about a possible bug that I edit at the end of the post.

• Copy a in water sprite (in my case I picked the Hume Black Mage).
• Export all the different sprites of the copied set
• Export also all sprite from the grounded version of the Numou Black Mage
• With the in water sprites as base, delete the hume version leaving only the black and white pixels, now copy the Numou sprite in and delete anything bellow the black shape so it looks the same as the Hume version.
• Now that you have all edited sprites is time to import them back over the copied ones (make sure that you replace each action with the same one). Just one thing that there are some specific sprites probably for cut scenes and other stuff that I did not change, like the Veil casting animation that is exclusive to Humes I replaced by the NuMou reading a book.
• Finally just in case I used the in editor option to replace the pallet to make sure every sprite had the same one (just press "replace pallet" and then pick one of the sprite with your desired pallet)
• No go to the Job Data tab, look for the NuMou version of the Black Mage, in the "Main" sub-tab change "Movable Places" to CAN_STAND_IN_WATER and in the "Sprite" sub-tab (not to be confused with the main "Sprites" tab on top) make sure to change both the "Unit alternate Sprite" and the "Enemy alternate Sprite" to your new in water sprite.
• Save rom and load the game it should allow you to have the black mage enter water and attack and cast from it like normal

Note: for the edition of the sprite I would recommend to use a dedicated sprite editor like AseSprite or LibreSprite, as an example I uploaded a rar with my edited sprites as an example, if anyone want to use them they are free to do so

Possible bug for Rurusachi: The first extra unit slot seems bugged, I copied the Black Mage Hume, replaced it with my edited sprites and if that was assigned in the alternate sprite it still crashes the game upon trying to do an action, but if I then copied the already edited sprite and use that copy it works as intended

why is like this how can fix it

why hasteja ability point become 0 it should be 250

anyone know the problem and how to fix

why hasteja have effect for nu mou but no effect for luso can anyone know how to fix it

Instead of images of the game con you show how the edited ability looks in the editor, is probable that you missed assigning it correctly of something, also you can edit your post so as not to multipost
