General Discussion / Re: Keeping records of all our lost time...

You could use a github account to host plain text files as such:
https://pastebin.com/GBWJ7yen

Should be perfectly adequate for data, disassemblies (one hopes with comments), file format descriptions, and of course source code.

It's definitely a half-assed solution, but for some use-cases (getting tons of data in one easily downloaded and edited location) it has a big advantage over a wiki. Concatenating a bunch of text files together is easy; grabbing tens of thousands of commented disassembly snippets from wiki and putting them in a single text file is not.

Anyone can edit it, there are unlikely to be spammers on Github, you don't have to pay to host it, you can seed compressed archives of various versions of it. The only disadvantage is being forced to use Git instead of Mercurial.

Making it easier to find and understand the data/code/assets/whatever these tools modify is a good first step.

FF9 Gameplay Releases / Re: [PSX/PC] Alternate Fantasy (v3.2 & v5.1)

Is the RHDN entry for the PSX version the most up-to-date PSX version (I know that the PSX version is inactive)?
http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/2530/

Also what are the ISO/BIN hashes for the unmodified roms to which the patches should be applied?

edit

After fiddling around, it appears that the correct SHA256 hash for disc 1 is:

Has anyone done any research into this? Seems like it would be cool.

Ditto for shallow water and river fords for the "boat" and buggy.

Have you made any unpushed progress on your disassemblies and tools for FF6, FFT-WOTL, and other games?

Maybe it's a sort of morale deflation that you need to face reality, or that you wasted time. I know that lying around all day and eating terrible food makes me feel awful, and any time I go to sleep after waking up around get-out-of-bed time I have nightmares.

As I get older and I have less to show for my life I care less about partying and more about building a family and having kids. I'm not smarter than the thousands of generations that came before me, and I realize that the lifestyles ancient peoples evolved were optimal for human happiness. Any evolved system will on a long enough time frame become vastly superior to the best planned systems.

I don't know what works for you, but listening to my body works for me.

I'm not really equipped to do much reverse-engineering, especially if this is the PC version, but someone is probably interested. If it doesn't cost you much go ahead and do it.

While gawping at a thread where a certain user who shall remain unnamed did as such , I noticed that quantumpencil mentioned that there's a disassembly of the game.

FFXII is a perfect example of death by committee. Kinda mystifying how they took all the talent from Final Fantasy Tactics and produced that mess.
They fired the guy from FFT/VS because he had a nervous breakdown and let the Sa-Ga goofball finish it.

IMO Vayne is the hero.

Troubleshooting / Lost on editing FF7 and FF8
« on: 2020-04-20 13:38:42 »
Is there a single location where comprehensive, up-to-date information on what every tool for FF7/8 edits, including the versions it edits and the data found in the files it edits? I'm confused as to which editors to use for FF7/8, there are multiple editors for the same files in some cases.

It's a bad idea to choose moderators who self-nominate. Better to ask other users to nominate a moderator and let them have a say in some manner; though probably not a direct vote.

Never ever mod someone who asks for the position.

We're well into best girl territory at this point, someone should make a poll.

If FF7R is released on PC you can always mod it to remove the retcons and restore original outfits. It's not a big deal, though it is funny that SE can't tell a decent story to save their lives.

The bottom patch is a port of the retranslation to PSX, found here.

https://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php?topic=19709.0

Still no clue what the other patch is, other than probably something for FF8 or FF9.

General Discussion / PSX FF8 Mods?
« on: 2020-03-21 23:24:01 »
Do any mods exist for FF8 PSX which do these things:
1. Change the maximum draw limit (both battle and field) to 100?
2. Rebalance the game in some way?

edit

I downloaded these patches a while ago but I've since forgotten from where. No idea what they are and they have no documentation. Does anyone recognize them?

http://www.mediafire.com/file/qlsphm2a53zts7f/TSFix.zip/file

^This is from either FF8 or FF9, it's for a 4 disc game. It's very small, probably some sort of bugfix.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/vr3gj60gtzpfxma/Final_Fantasy_7_%25281_April_2016%2529.zip/file

^This is a pretty large patch for PSX FF7 but I can't for the life of me find it.

Except that's not what I did, is it?  I deleted abusive posts that were clearly trolling. Hence why most posts there are still there (including your abusive one I should have deleted) despite disagreeing with me.  And you;re no different, telling people they're on the spectrum.  What a lovely guy you are. 

It's also amusing that my thread is locked for me deleting abusive posts but this clearly trolling thread is still open.  ;D

Since you deleted it all we have is your word, so great job undermining your own argument. Also a bit of advice from my close personal friend Tyler the Creator:

If DLPB can get away with abusing moderator privileges to delete posts that disagree with him then he shouldn't be surprised when people mock him. That behavior has been the end of thousands of online communities.

Teasing abusive primadonnas is absolutely merited. If you don't like the reaction your behavior produces, change your behavior or maybe step away from the computer for a bit.

Archive everything, if DLPB continues to escalate his sperg-outs it will be hilarious.

Really looking forward to this, and especially modding it. A more... nostalgic Tifa mod will be the first thing I download.
