So... Anyone waiting?
OS: Windows Vista or later
CPU: 2.4GHz quad-core CPU
Memory: 2 GB RAM
GPU: NVIDIA Geforce GTX 450 / AMD Radeon HD 5750 with 512MB
HDD: 40 GB
What do you think? Is it again Unity port and we will be able to snatch whole source code?
Is it UnrealEngine based? Is it rewritten to PC?
Any FFX fans out there? Personally I have retail version for PS3 and I really like the HD remaster. :3 Recently made 100% trophies.
Is someone here who is going to mod the PC release?
EDIT: FFIX unity port was prepared by Silicon Studio with probably Square Enix source support. It's hard to find any info, but is is possible the same studio prepared FFX-X2-HD-PC2016?
-
The PS4 version introduced some new bugs, namely an awful broken RNG and completely missing resume support for music. Both bugs were fixed in a patch later on, but I would not at all be surprised to see them (or other bugs) creep back in.
I have become quite wary of Square Enix's PC ports. Some of them turn out good, but I refuse to get excited for them until I see for certain they have not messed things up.
-
I'm definitely interested. Getting them High Quality models swapped might be a nice experience to.
-
I heard FFX runs on the PhyreEngine

Meh.. after having completed the game on PS2 multiple times, once on the ps2 emulator and twice on the Ps3... I think I'll pass on this one since it won't bring anything new :(
-
ı will bought for steam. Just waiting because no price.
-
I think I'll pass on this one since it won't bring anything new :(
Well... assuming it's based on the PS4 version, it will have some newer, better textures than the PS3 version. Not enough to merit another playthrough, but not nothing either.
-

ditto
-
It's live. Probably not gonna buy it, I already have them on the PS3 port and I doubt I'd gain anything playing them on PC (especially since their PC ports are subpar).
-
Available NOW. They say Japanese audio with English subtitles isn't possible because of technical issues. Yeah, right. Again modders need to fix their games. Writing something like this make me think that they just recompiled the game for PC and it's indeed phyreEngine. Someone who bought it. How does the files look like? I know there's again some launcher (SquareEnix loves launchers)
-
They say Japanese audio with English subtitles isn't possible because of technical issues. Yeah, right.
This smells to me like licensing problems. The Japanese voice acting industry is yakuza-controlled, and they tend to ruin dual audio for everyone unless it's licensed for such in the first place. That's why it's so much easier to get it for modern games than for modern ports of old games.
-
This smells to me like licensing problems.
Pretty much this, it's also why the Kingdom Hearts games and even Crisis Core aren't available digitally, some KH music was only licensed for physical distribution and Gackt's likeness can't be used anymore preventing digital sales of CC.
-
Still too early to get the info how does the files look like (to prove it's phyre indeed or not). Does anyone have info about file structure?
-
Downloading the game will take a few hours, will post here when it finishes. Kinda stupid that you can speed up normal gameplay but not cutscenes or blitzball...
-

Not that I know anything about this, but I decided to take a few pictures in hope you're able to identify it.

Really all I'm hoping for is the ability to swap models back to their PS2 original, maybe modify a few textures, and restore the font back to the way it was.
-
The new models were reworked, they have more polygons compared to the ps2 ones, the only problem are the face textures they look so lifeless
-
Thanks!
Not good. It's clearly some custom engine/modified phyre. MSVCR files says it's for sure Visual C++.
One giant binary file is also very bad. If all the addresses are hardcoded in exe, then modifying anything could be fatal.
However, the magic files look interesting.
Eww... Square...
EDIT: Okay. I'm going to inspect the files soon. It's 30GB, so tomorrow.
EDIT2: Yes, it's phyre. The same file structure as PS3: http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=11107
EDIT3: The PS3/PS4 release used PSARC file. PC uses some "VBF" files. Are they the same?
EDIT4: FinalFantasyModding community on Steam already released JAP voiceover mod

Ugh, one have to buy X-2 too? No thanks, I lived through that horror once before.
-
Do you think that we will be able to mod the game like FF7 ?
-
If you want to extract files from the VBF you can decompile the launcher and get the VirtuosBigFileReader class which can extract the files BUT it uses a hash table so you need to know the file names to extract data. I have a simple tool that will attempt to extract files based on a dictionary, will release in the next day or so
-
We could use that Lord Ramza. :3
Okay. I have the files:
FFX&X-2_LAUNCHER.exe is:

EDIT:
As Lord Ramza mentioned, there is whole code for VBF called "VBFtool".
Voids are:
VBFTool/VirtuosBigFileReader/
*byte[] GetFileContents(string path)
*void LoadBigFileFile(string path)
Example:
Program.LoadVBFData("MetaMenu/PS3Data/MenuMetaMenu/metamenu.ogg
Paths are MD5 hashed!
Though fear not. All files has to be written somewhere or at least their locations.
Now I'll take a look at those magic files.
Update:
PDB path:
R:\hg_code\ffx_magic_w32\source\ps3\ffx\magic\magic_0003\Release\magic_0003.pdbThe PS3 version of this file has .sprx extension.
Okay. I put the EXEs onto IDA, and .... we're home.
Full paths to files and whole game code is in some custom phyre format. I'm not sure yet, I have no info about phyre, but there are A LOT of debug strings for Phyre:Scripting language and extreme amount of debug strings, I mean EXTREME (Imagine FFVIII debug info and multiply it by 10).
Example:

Debug outputter subroutine:
.text:006B4CC0 (Unfortunately IDA claims it's unused. Also this sub-routine has no frame info)
The game has no OutputDebugString import... :/
Okay. Looks like we would have to create our own text display. Example listening:
sub_BF4270:
Taking uint_32 Size of *Src is:
../../../FFX_Data/GameData/PS3Data/chr/wep/w041/w041.ahwin32
The entry is dynamic. Therefore memory hotpatching at startup is impossible without pointer use.
Okay. I got this:
FF8.exe:
.text:00C255F0
Is:
.text:00C255F0 sub_C255F0 proc near ; DATA XREF: .rdata:012FE164o

Okay. I already called AllocConsole, but still the game's printf doesn't show me what it has inside... :/
stdout has to be redirected to console. I found a solution:
freopen("CONOUT$", "w", stdout)
Might try, still a lot of code injection.
-
Already spotted one bug. after the first sinspawn fight when you are swimming around it says B: go down.
I actually needed to press A to swim down no configuration was changed.
do like the "orignal soundtrack" option, though it seems the volume is lower relative to everything else compared to the original game.
-
Pretty pleased overall with the port. All I'd like to do is swap the lower poly battle and field models with the higher poly cutscene models-- but I'm sure it's too soon to say if that's even within the realm of possibility.
-
hey
why did square enix have to put final fantasy X and x2 all in 1 steam package for
it takes forever to install that way
-
Because it's FFX/X2 HD Remaster. :)
Square simply does not sell remasters stand alone. they always bundle it.
Personally i'm pissed at Kingdom Hearts 2.8 remix, since i already bought 2.5 on ps3...
-
how come square enix could of not released the games in a standalone package
like final fantasy x in 1 price and final fantasy x 2 in another price
that would of made the install alot quicker for everyone
-
Zara9: They make more money this way. They know a lot of people only want FFX and not FFX-2, but by packaging them together they force people to pay for both of them.
-
Personally i'm pissed at Kingdom Hearts 2.8 remix, since i already bought 2.5 on ps3...
KH2.5 and 2.8 don't feature any of the same games. 2.8 has Dream Drop Distance (the 3DS game), a small Birth by Sleep related game, and something Kingdom Hearts X related.
-
Oh. that seems a little more reasonable. Crazy confusing numbering system....
still it's quite the money grab since i'd just be paying for the birth by sleep part. And 3d without the touchscreen really isn't anything close o the same game.
-

Yeah and the Birth by sleep section is actually an extended chapter untold in the door to darkness with Aqua from what i seen in the video. And the PS4 has a touchpad. :-)

I know there was an old gameshark code that put Seymour in your party permanently. He's already coded with a sphere grid spot and an overdrive and all that, so would such a code be possible on PC through cheatengine or something like that?
EDIT: Anyone know where the game stores the save data? I'd like to try fiddling with it in a hex editor.
-
See at C:/Users/<your username>/Documents/SquareEnix/Final Fantasy X&X2/Final Fantasy X folder
About your question - yes, it's possible. :)
Just have some time with CheatEngine.
Also, there's LUA command like "AddParty" or something, so you can actually do this via Phyre scripting, but it needs VBF repacking and location of the LUA script that is missing at the moment.
-
Made a quick n dirty command line tool to extract files from the VBF using a text file containing possible file names.
Download it here (https://github.com/topher-au/VBFExtract/releases/latest) (source code also available)
Have included a filelist.txt with a bunch of filenames grepped from the log file, it is nowhere near complete so please feel free to add to it as you find any new filenames =)
-
+1 Lord Ramza! :3
Log file?
FFX logs by default something?
-
I had a file called OUTPUT.txt in the FFX folder, just seemed to be a log file of everything happening. That's where I got the filenames from. Still got a ways to go yet though ;)
-
Really... I was searching for this for hours. I knew there is printf and even was going to redirect stdout to console because I though it's outputting to unaccesible handle... ehh.
Thanks Topher! No need to lose time anymore! :P
-
Wasn´t there a phyreengine sdk floating around in the internet somewhere ?
The meshes are in the collada format (.dae) and texture are .dds, but they all have .phyre at the end of it. Has anyone found how the header looks like ?
The new menu files(ESC menu), the chocobo that appears on the corner, the pause screen and the SQEX logo are in the .swf format, so they should be easy to mod right ?
Audio files are using the .fev format, i tried opening them with fmod studio but no luck

Wow, very cool!
Again, I have no idea what I'm doing, but I found out you can get something out of the dds.phyre files by using a tool called TextureFinder found here: http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=9358
I put together a collection of very small findings here: https://imgur.com/a/b9HAy
Oh, and it looks like there's a list of all videos inside FFX_Data\GameData\PS3Data\Video\JP\FFX_VideoList.txt and they're all in .webm format to boot!
Anyways,
I also ripped the button textures from the PS2 original, if anyone wanted to do anything with them. Here: https://mega.nz/#!IsVHUZiA!CUwTAI-KROYrcB56PW_1L1Kn8wycvKO7vzOEjuWLqds

I noticed the video file list and I was able to successfully extract some of the videos, but I haven't updated the file list. If you add any files to the file list, pastebin it and link me to it and i'll add them as I update the tool.

Topher, this is all I can get directly from EXE:

Everything else is... harder, because the path is already splitted like:

Exactly!
Audio files are using the .fev format, i tried opening them with fmod studio but no luck

Theres 1 big file with the music files (ffx_music_bank00.fsb) , then theres 2 other files (ffx_music.fev and ffx_music_PS2.fev), one for the arranged another one for the original.
The ffx_music_ps2.fev has strings that suggest that at least the original music is using the wav format (music_bank/2_12_auron_s_theme.wav)

Thanks, I'll give it a go with CheatEngine while you guys with a bit more knowledge on these file formats slave away lol.
It would be interesting to see if one could use their "AddParty" command (or whatever it is) towards other characters as well, if possible.
-
Just posted an updated version which includes an internal dictionary that contains the filenames of every file inside the archives. Yes, that's right. Every. File.
Download VBFExtract 0.0.2 Here (https://github.com/topher-au/VBFExtract/releases/tag/0.0.2)

I'm sorry Tetraspore. There is no LUA scripting in FFX I see... Still I don't know how does the event scripting is parsed on maps.
Also I inspected the dds.phyre format. It's easy:
The DDS texture IS ALWAYS at 0xA4E, and the real filename (.dds) is at: 0x99B.
The DDS texture should be read as normal DDS DXT1 or DXT3. Still can't really find the texture width x height bytes.
However user can using TextureFinder open any texture, see which DXT compression to use at 0xA4A.
At 0xA52 there is uint16 that so far I see is fixed at 2816. Add 4 to it and just display the texture using either 512x512, 1024x1024 or 2048x2048 and shift bytes by 2820.
Example:(http://s32.postimg.org/qhpwssr5f/AAAAA.jpg)
If I could find the the texture width and height then I could code the soft to convert Phyre to DDS and DDS to phyre converter. :3
Topher, create new topic in TOOLS section, so everyone will see it. :)
UPDATE:
You can extract FSB files with:
http://aezay.dk/aezay/fsbextractor/
Working, just tested.
@Back to DDS:
Width: 0x9E7 (DXT1?) / 0x9F0 (DXT5?)
Height: 0x9EB
I'm very close to prepare the DDS. You just need to edit the header, modify it and everything will work as normal DDS.
-
Oh shit, we're just about opened up.
-
Awesome work! Can't wait to see what happens after textures.
-
This could be pretty neat. I succumbed to SE's addicted cycle of repurchasing the same games over and over, and was pleasantly surprised by how damn good this PC port looks. It is by far and away the definitive version of this game. My only complaint is that the game is locked at 30 FPS.

Kaldaien just updated Untitled Project X (http://steamcommunity.com/app/359870/discussions/0/364041517007524857/) to include texture ripping & injection in .dds format.
I'll likely be messing around trying to port various PS2 assets back in.
Turns out most new textures (UI elements & Text in particular) are 4x larger than the original.
Speaking of, does anyone know the name of the font used for subtitles in the original? (https://imgur.com/PuIFoY0)
I believe I found it. Should be "Consolas".

Yeah, he posted an update (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2smLwSCpA68) the other day, it's looking great!

This might be a nitpick, but, is anyone else annoyed by the delay in the battle menu when switching characters,opening the skills ,special and magic menu and going to the overdrive tab ?
-
Looks like I don't need to create a soft for texture replacement then :). Oh, also remember you can use TexMod! It's unique, always-working texture replacement tool that works for any DirectX9. [I haven't tested it although]
EDIT: Oh, FFX is DirectX11 ?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it is DirectX11; TexMod wasn't working at least.
Did you make any success with converting those .phyre files?
Now that proper means of texture injection exist, I'm imagining the next "big thing" will be editting models and the like.
Particularly, I've noticed the demand to revert the party's character models back to the originals.

If you do manage to figure that out, there's a number of PS2 models already ripped being hosted on the Models Resource. (http://www.models-resource.com/playstation_2/finalfantasyx/)
Regardless, I'm very impressed how quickly things have been happening.
Thanks to all of you!

This is what Tidus and Yuna looked like a few months before FFX HD came out on PS3

They looked better but it´s still not as good as the ps2 version
-
Oh god that change from PS2 is AWFUL! Which retard was in charge of doing the models or overseeing the change? Update the models, but don't change the structure. That's like a totally different character on some of those pics!
-
They were probably shooting for a slightly more western look when adding more polys
-
Hmm, but they look more Japanese like, same as they have done it with Cloud. Nevertheless this time they had pretty detailed reference material. Be it the CG movies or be it the great concept art (well actually it's a bit over-detailed).
-
I would really like to modify the alpha layer on a lot of the hair in the game. They have a lot of blunt ends that don't transition nicely. I'd like to take some notes from how they did the hair in FFXIII and apply similar techniques to the hairstyles in X. Is this something we can do already with TexMod?
-
I can't wait to edit the models, they did an alright job remaking the textures but I'm disappointed in the model reworking they did.
-
The only thing that annoys me so far is the button prompts are for an xbox controller. Trying to imput Aurons overdrive with a PS3 pad is just annoying I can't seem to get used to it.
If anyone manages to restore the PS2 button prompts I would love you for ever.

Pretty sure this guy has included that in his mod already.

I very rarely check steam, thanks a lot for pointing that out to me!
-
Are you the real mariokart64n? Awesome! I remember downloading the ancient schoolgirl Kairi's model for GMOD and MANY other models.
Back to FFX - The newest steam release has also "freecam.swf" and it looks like it's disabled. Changing offsets should do the trick?
In the spare time:

Yeah I was doing porting for gmod, till I got banned from facepunch. Then I got into file I/O and have done a few program on xentax to take 3D models from games into 3DSmax and back.
I'm trying to get the courage to open a FFX model file in a hex editor. Because I remember yaz0r worked on the ps2 version and he said it had used heavy compression. :/
But it would soo incredible if FFX was fully customizable, sound, textures, models, etc just amazing!
-
Is it just me or, are the models of Yuna and Rikku from FFX-2 more faithful to the PS2 ones, than FFX ?
-
Hey guys, I have started working on adding rebuild support to vbftool. Currently it can rebuild metamenu successfully but there's still a few bytes here and there that need to be figured out before the game will read the files.
If anyone is interested in helping, grab the source code here and have a look (https://github.com/topher-au/VBFTool).
-
@Topher looks cool, do you mind if I ask what exactly that does? What is "metamenu" anyway?
-
Anyone manage to swap the cutscene models with the field/battle models?
-
Can someone make a guide, what is the easiest way to translate Final Fantasy X steam version?
