[FF9 PC][for modders] Some layering fixes in p0data7 that every mod should have

Final Fantasy 9 > FF9 Graphical Releases

(1/2) > >>

snouz:
This is for mod creators.
With Hades Workshop, open your mod. In "Environment" > "Fields", for each field > "edit script", and each field has its functions, the first one is always Main_init, and second one is often Main_reinit (for when you get out of battle)
Some field names appear several times, so I indicated the number if that's the case.

BUGS OF THE PC version
The two chests appearing in front of objects is due to the Steam version having slightly shifted chests compared to PSX

Spoiler: Fixed in the latest version • show

Gulug/Well 1
In Main_Init and Main_Reinit, at the start of the function:
SetTilePositionEx( 23, 0, 0, 4000 )

In Gargan Roo/Passage 1
Main_Init and Main_Reinit
Change:
SetTilePositionEx( 2, 0, 0, 150 )
To:
SetTilePositionEx( 2, 0, 0, 70 )

In Dali/Production Area 2
In Main_Init and Main_Reinit, at the start of the function:
SetTilePositionEx( 27, 0, 0, -100 )
SetTilePositionEx( 23, 0, 0, 100 )

BUGS OF THE PSX version
These two bugs were present in the PSX version and were likely an oversight from the developers

Crystal World 1
In Main_Init and Main_Reinit, at the start of the function:
SetTilePositionEx( 8, 0, 0, 3000 )
SetTilePositionEx( 10, 0, 0, -600 )
SetTilePositionEx( 11, 0, 0, -600 )
SetTilePositionEx( 12, 0, 0, 2000 )

This fix will need a bit shortening of the top bit of the path, because it makes the path appear in front of the giant boulder. It also makes the magic glow on the right appear on top of the boulder as well.

in field Palace/Dungeon 2
in Main_init (beginning of the function):
SetTilePositionEx( 13, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 18, 0, 0, 500 )

after " case 9530:" and after " case 9815:"
SetTilePositionEx( 2, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 3, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 4, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 5, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 6, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 7, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 8, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 9, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 13, 0, 0, -500 )

In Function Zidane_13
replace:
ShowTile( 2, 0 )
SetObjectLogicalSize( 14, 20, 30 )
InitWalk( )
Walk( -1983, 2306 )
InitWalk( )

with:
ShowTile( 2, 0 )
SetTilePositionEx( 3, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 4, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 5, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 6, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 7, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 8, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 9, 0, 0, -500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 13, 0, 0, -500 )
SetObjectLogicalSize( 14, 20, 30 )
InitWalk( )
Walk( -1983, 2306 )
SetTilePositionEx( 3, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 4, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 5, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 6, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 7, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 8, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 9, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 13, 0, 0, 500 )
InitWalk( )

In each main character _16:
add before " WaitTurn( )"
SetTilePositionEx( 2, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 3, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 4, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 5, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 6, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 7, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 8, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 9, 0, 0, 200 )
SetTilePositionEx( 13, 0, 0, 200 )

In Main_Loop near the end, after "ShowTile( 9, 1 )", i added:
SetTilePositionEx( 2, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 3, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 4, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 5, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 6, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 7, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 8, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 9, 0, 0, 500 )
SetTilePositionEx( 13, 0, 0, 500 )

This will re-arrange depth of doors so that no bit gets in front of characters and that they don't appear in front of the texture, while putting the closed doors layers in front of the open one.

It just removes the bad effects, but the smoke could still be reinforced with photoshop.
My project is also to remove the 3d objects of the shovels in the dali windmill (second floor), but capturing the images and adding them to the background to integrate them better.

Also, I removed the floating glass in Alex pub, but there are in fact 2 glasses, and I first managed to put them in the hands of each patron, but the glass is bottom up, and I cannot turn it up once it's attached to a hand, even using SetPitchAngle.
I could, however, angle some chests to integrate them better to backgrounds (Clayra Trunk...)

I need to put screens and formatting. Thanks for this one.

Btw Caledor, do you have any news from Lykon? He disappeared after release, and got no answer/connexion on steam from him. Is he ok?

Caledor:
I just thought it was worth to showcase what was the result after that change, i'm going through them one by one. As for Lykon I just sent him a msg with a link here.

PS: i couldn't spot the difference in Dali Windmill and Iifa Tree/Roots 1, even though for the second i think i got what should happen: It's about the background below the elevator platform during the zoom in?
