FF9 Gameplay Releases / Re: Final Fantasy IX: David Bowie Edition Version 2.0, now with Moguri support

Honestly though, in retrospect I don't like that it's only on the Skullcap, it's probably TOO limiting and I think I went too far. If I ever do another update I'll probably distribute the skill to something a bit earlier than the very end of the game. It's not as bad with Ability Up since AP costs were slashed for every skill already, but does present more of a limitation with Level Up.

Yes, I concur it's a bit late in the game and limiting for the player. It's a shame I found out about the language issue this late, having played most of the game with wrong text on items and spell, but I enjoyed it. Hope you will update the mod, I look forward to play the game again with it someday!

Switching to US English corrected the problem, now I have "Holy Water" and "Purify Drops" instead of annoyntment and eye drops. Wish I knew this before battling Meltigemini  Also the "None" spells have disappeared, I'm guessing everything was caused by UK-US.

A curiosity: I'm at Memoria and I could only find a "Level Up" ability equipment for Steiner, other characters have no "Level Up" equipment. Has it been removed in the mod or do I simply have to look around better?

Based on the first two points, I think something isn't working quite right with the text on the mod. Are you playing the game in US English? If so, are you running any other mods concurrently? Basically Echo Screens and Eye Drops were combined into a single item and in theory there should be text changes to reflect that.

As for Meltigemini, the whole virus thing has been replaced by it inflicting Zombie, so it'll require Holy Water (or Annoytment if the text isn't working) or Zidane's Heroes skill (sixth in his skill list) to cure it.

Also the game must be a wild experience if the text isn't properly displaying, things must seem really arbitrary at times.

Thanks! Yes, I'm Italian but I'm playing the game in English, UK English though. I'm running Beatrix Mod, Tweaked Portraits and Moguri Mod, in this order from top to bottom and all of them under DB Mod (which is on top of the list).

Hi! Tried the mod and I'm enjoying it, I've just completed Mount Gulug. I have a couple of questions though:

- The "none" spell is present in the equipment for several characters (Dagger, Vivi) even if I made a new install of the game and I'm using the last version both of Memoria and of the mod. Is this normal? May it depend on the fact that I installed the game in a folder I had it installed before?

- In the beginning of the game (Evil Forest) I could not heal the blind status with Eye Drops, I had to use Echo Screens instead

- In the battle with Meltigemini, when it gives you the "virus", characters cannot be neither healed not revived (with magic or phoenix down), is this intentional? It makes the battle kind of unfair

Thx!
