FF9 Tools / Re: [Help Request] Adding Flare Star and Ultima to Vivi via Hades Workshop

Hello. The problem with Ultima not being suitable because it's meant to end the fight is not a problem anymore in the Steam version, at least for "Ultima-Pandemonium". The workaround has been integrated inside Memoria itself.
So:
1. Yes.
2. You simply need to use the effect you want ("[Ultima-Pandemonium]" or "Flare Star") for a spell's special effect. The best is to create a new spell (tab "Party -> Spells") by right-clicking on a standard black magic and use "Add": it will create a new spell using your selection as a basis. And then simply change its name and visual effect (you need to enable "Show all effects" or something like that for Ultima) and possibly the spell's stats. Then, you need to add that spell to a command (tab "Party -> Commands") so it can be accessed in battle by a character (add it to "Blk Mgc" for example if you want Vivi to use it). Then you may want to add that spell to the list of spells that a character can learn (tab "Party -> Stats"), with a certain amount of AP. If you do that, you also need to add the spell to one or multiple equipments (tab "Inventory -> Items -> Regular Items"). And then you're good.
3. There is no real way to do that as enemy spells are kind of different from party spells. You'll notice for example that many spells used by enemies have different stats compared to the version the party uses.
