Limit Break Editing, PSX (not a repost) / "LiBrE"

[Bosola]

Firstly, information on Limit Break editing for PSOne:

The data for all limit breaks is stored in the LIMITMENU.MNU file, which lives in the MENU subdirectory of the PSOne disk. Below is a table of the data, the limit, and the position / offset of this data in the file (in hex, obviously):

(Attack Data from Kudistos Megistos' post.)

Information on the attack data can be found here.

Secondly: I've been wanting to get back into programming for a while, and a little project that would help ease me back into things might be an editor for just this kind of thing, a Limit Break Editor (LiBrE). Question is, should I bother? Would anyone here want to use it? It would edit both PC and PSOne data. I plan to write in Python then compile for Windows and Linux - using it would require no VB powerpacks or necessitate a chunky .NET framework download, so it would be pretty trivial to use. Thoughts?

[ff7rules]

this sounds like a great idea! but what would it alow us to do? swap out limits for attacks? or just change the name of them?

[Bosola]

I'm pretty sure names can already be altered in Wallmarket, as can the attacks associated with each limit level.

No, this would probably allow full editing: power, element, targetting data, number of hits in multi-hit attacks, associated status effects (cause/cure/toggle), infliction rates, power algorithm, special flags, additional effects... you get the idea.

[ff7rules]

Yeah sounds like a great idea then! Would make each character having an element alot more realstic if it was to be i dunno a fire spell or ice etc.

[Timu Sumisu]

if you can control multi hits that could be really kool, moreso if you controlled the timing, for example, each swing of cross slash doing damage, or climhazzard doing damage on the stab, then more when cloud jumps. dunno if this actually applies though.

That's applied in the animation. At least, if you have it doing multi hits, the animation will dictate when to display damage. I did some tests early on with WM and you can set any attack to do multiple hits and the target will take damage accordingly, but it won't show damage from each hit unless you get the attack animation to do so.

These, along with Tifa's actual attacks, are stored in the KERNEL.BIN and I believe that they trump the data in the lmitmenu file. At least, Tifa's did in the PC version. I believe Vincent's do too since all his limits seem to do is transform him and make him perform one of two attacks depending on his level. The data for those attacks are editable in the KERNEL.BIN, but you should allow them to be edited in your prog as well.

I suspected so, but just wanted to include the data for the sake of completion.

I did some tests early on with WM and you can set any attack to do multiple hits and the target will take damage accordingly, but it won't show damage from each hit unless you get the attack animation to do so.

How would one do that?

[Bosola]

Getting there!



I've never really programmed before, except for a bit of BASIC a looong time ago (and FF7's pseudo-assembler), so this has been a learning curve for me. I still have to do some more code, but I'm confident that I'll be able to complete this. I've chosen Python to do this project; I have to say, I like the language - it's easy, but powerful.

As you can see from the above, I consciously chose to emulate the layout NFITC1 uses for WallMarket / Proud Clod. I expect most people using this app to be using NFITC's software too, so it'll be far easier for them if I don't diverge too radically from the interface they're accustomed to.

Beats me. Akari's farther along on animation scripts. He might have found this info by now.

Feel free to improve on the design. I have no problem with you imitating it, but it's by no means flawless. I do like the name of yours BTW. Few comments though:

#1. 0002h and Blade Beam statuses do NOTHING. If you're leaving out the unused ones, best leave those out too.

#2. In WM and PrC, the only boxes that are yellow are ones that have values displayed in hex. That's for the sake of ease of knowing which one to use where.

#3. That interface (and I'll admit this with WM and PrC too) is cluttered with controls. The number you're using can't be avoided, but the ones you have are VERY close (too close) together. You may not think so, but look at it with a different DPI (96 vs 120) and you'll see what I mean.

#4. Thanks for spelling my name correctly.

#5. Your attack drop-down is suitable, but consider going the extra mile and getting the names out of the KERNEL.BIN/kernel2.bin. I'm helping titeguy7 with getting names out of it already and the code for getting attack names is identical. I can show you how to do it if you would like. You could even allow them to change the name even though WM already does that (I can show you how to do that too).

Question: With this, would one be able to edit the transformations Vincent uses, and make them something else? Like could I, for instance, change Hell Masker into Sephiroth? I know it would be a pain in the ass to probably change the attacks it would use afterward, but it would be rather cool no? Make your own Vincent limit break.

Feel free to improve on the design. I have no problem with you imitating it, but it's by no means flawless. I do like the name of yours BTW.

Cheers. 'Libre' felt suitable not only because it's a sorta acronym, but it 'frees' modders a little more.

Few comments though:

#1. 0002h and Blade Beam statuses do NOTHING. If you're leaving out the unused ones, best leave those out too.

May do so. I was going to say something along the lines of 'but then my interface will be uneven', but it's pretty unwieldy as is.

#2. In WM and PrC, the only boxes that are yellow are ones that have values displayed in hex. That's for the sake of ease of knowing which one to use where.

Ah. I see.

#3. That interface (and I'll admit this with WM and PrC too) is cluttered with controls. The number you're using can't be avoided, but the ones you have are VERY close (too close) together. You may not think so, but look at it with a different DPI (96 vs 120) and you'll see what I mean.

Good point. I'm fortunate to have a high-res display. Others aren't. I'll space them out somewhat more. How about like this?




Comboboxes -



I think even this is a real improvement.

#5. Your attack drop-down is suitable, but consider going the extra mile and getting the names out of the KERNEL.BIN/kernel2.bin. I'm helping titeguy7 with getting names out of it already and the code for getting attack names is identical. I can show you how to do it if you would like. You could even allow them to change the name even though WM already does that (I can show you how to do that too).

I suppose I could, but I can't imagine many users of Libre not having a copy of WM on hand, so it would likely be a bit redundant.

I know it would be a pain in the ass to probably change the attacks it would use afterward, but it would be rather cool no? Make your own Vincent limit break.

Not really. You could change which limit changes to which limit monster (i.e. make the 'Gallian Beast' limit transform Vincent into Chaos, make 'Chaos' turn the ex-Turk into a Death Gigas), but that's it. No turning into Emerald WEAPON.

I'm not sure how Vincent's stat modifiers would change by doing this, however. Normally, Vincent's stats are boosted or reduced by a certain amount when he transforms. F'rinstance, Hellmasker doubles Vincent's HP. If I made the Hellmasker limit turn Vincent into a Gallian Beast, would he still receive the HP bonus? I'm not sure. I don't know that much about how his limit breaks "work", so to speak.

As for attacks, you can alter which ones he uses by modifying Vincent's Main script in Wallmarket. It's something really simple like,

 let x = vin's limit level
 randomize, half chance:
  y = x times somenumber
 else
  y = x times someothernumber
 perform y as 0020

By changing 'somenumber' and 'someothernumber', you can change which attacks he uses. You can even take the random factor out, and make him only use certain attacks if the target doesn't resist them, etc.

Damn, I was thinking it would be kinda cool to have him turn into like some random badass monster.... However, say someone were to model and texture something to replace say his death gigas with something else, could you technically then make it whatever  you want? Cause if you could do that could you replace his attack anim's with other ones from the game and make your own vincent monster?

[Timu Sumisu]

couldnt you (in the case you suggested of having him morph into sephi) replace the limit break model id's with sephiroth? like rename a copy of sephi's models to wtv galian beasts are? The issue being which animations end up being used?

It's definitely possible.  As long as it points to loading a different model, that models animations should be used.   Of course, which animation the game chooses to load for berserk and beast flare could cause problems.

[Timu Sumisu]

well, you can choose what animations are used for what no? just choose one more appropriate from sephis list, such as an attack anim for berserk, and cast animation for beastflare

You can choose attack animations, but that has no bearing on animation the character does when they perform said attack. That's just which overlay from magic.lgp to display while the attack is performing.

Beats me. Akari's farther along on animation scripts. He might have found this info by now.

Yeah, I know how to do this. But to edit this script you need someone like NFITC1 to write editor. =)
It's not that hard, really =)

Getting better!



As you can see, Libre now works... partially. And by that, I mean it views, but can't yet save data in the PSX LIMITMENU.MNU file. I'm really excited about getting my very first program up and running fully.

[titeguy3]

Awesome job, Bosola! I look forward to the first working release of LiBrE!

I have info about PSX file. Do you need it? Though opcodes itself are crossplatform.

Can't hurt. It'd give me something to go on and how to make an editor cross-platform too.
