How to edit the tex file in FF7?
« on: 2004-11-23 08:28:15 »
We know some background graphics in FF7 are in tex format, and I've heard of some software that can change the tex files into bmp, but I don't know how can I get such a software, we need this to complete our "Chinese Version" of FF7.

Thanks in advance!

Goto: http://ficedula.cjb.net
Under "FF7 Programs" there's a tool called "TexTool"

Good Luck

But I've encoutered some problems while using the tool, when I try to export tex into bmp, the program will stop with a warning "Access violation at address 00000009, write of address 700456d2"

SOS!!!

Try downloading FiceLib from ficedula's homepage, then place it into same directory as the TexTool.

If it won't work you can use mine program Biturn, it can convert TEX textures into BMP too. Its at http://mirex.mypage.sk/index.php?selected=1

------
also, Ficedula, your homepage asks me for installing of some weird components ! Like Gain publishing and Dialer ... looks kinda like viruses or smthing.

Possibly because of the cjb.net redirect - if you go via www.ficedula.co.uk there shouldn't be any popups or similar...

Yeah, the FFSF cjb.net redirect is doing the same thing.

Ficedula: Nice to see you posting again!

As I see the link to your new page and check the news, I have to say that I haven't been up-to-date with your activites, since I thought you have been too busy all the time to post anything here...

However, there seems to be a new kind of "activity" and a new of news entries on your page... that doesn't really remind me of the Remake-Coding-Days...

I hope you'll keep on posting more frequently here, so we can continue "commmunicating"...

It's great to see you here, we must thank you! Your tools have done us a great help, and our programmers have all learned a lot from you!

And thanks to mirex, your tool is helpful, too, now we can edit the graphics in the game.
