FFT originally uses its own font for MAPTITLE.BIN, so it's not really possible to edit individual Map titles so easily. Because Koko asked me about this for CoP I proposed to make the new MAPTITLE.BIN for his patch. I came up with a very close font to the original's, and make it very easily editable as it's simply text.

Anyway you should take a look for yourself...

You will need:

  • A .psd (Photoshop file format) editor

  • GraphicsGale

  • TIMUTIL.EXE

  • Hex Editor



The tutorial is included inside
  • Modding version: PSX
Love what you're seeing? https://supportus.ffhacktics.com/ 💜 it's really appreciated

Anything is possible as long as it is within the hardware's limits. (ie. disc space, RAM, Video RAM, processor, etc.)

Tile mutilator?  I think I remember that from romhackingdotnet.  And I think GIMP can edit photoshop files.
