@Dizzy9

I found a problem with both patches I wanted to know if you could fix.

For the LV UP heal patch

The character's HP isn't restored when leveling up, but the character's HP stat doesn't increase when they level up.

So the only thing that needs to be changed is to allow the characters HP stat to increase when they level up while keeping the HP from being restored.

And for the Phoenix Down patch

Phoenix downs restore HP by 25% when used in battle, but restore HP by 100% when used in the menu.

For some reason the items are programmed twice in the game. At around 0x020000 for when they're used in battle, and around 0x070000 for when they're used in the menu.

Uh, I'm sorry.

I'll reupload fixed patches for you.(Check your rivate messages)

Not only that-they programmed phoenix down in diferent ways.
Programming it twice is logical for a game with 32kb PRG swapping.

Okay, that makes sense.

Gongaga is finished:

Wasn't gongaga already edited?

Look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtnR7tMDPJw

Not all of it just the first 2 minutes. Jump to like 2:20. Also, notice how jacked up the water looks.

Also, notice in this game scarlet and palmer are one. Making it just Palmer.. They just couldn't fit another character in it..

No, it looks like it's using the original map but with glitched up graphics.

Lugia2009 · « **Reply #845 on:** September 19, 2012, 05:03:07 pm »

It was edited a while ago, but at the time, I didn't know how to completely alter the maps, I only knew how to edit the graphics in the tile editor. But not the placement of any of the graphics.
So for my comparison picture, I used the completely unedited map rather than my slightly edited map and compared it to the completely redone map.

could you make the houses more round looking?

Lugia2009 · « **Reply #847 on:** September 19, 2012, 06:27:33 pm »

Unfortunately, no due to color limitations.

BTW, I think you should change earlier maps to make them more accurate to original game's ones. For example, the entrance in the mako reactor during the bombing mission. You can do it a bit later, after you make other maps. You coluldn't change them because you wasn't skilled enough, but now you are.

I would have to agree. It didn't look too bad not as bad as the undedited version. But the maps resemble to the first game pretty well. However, I was kinda creeped out by the first reno encounter. You didn't get in some fight with reno in the original.. You had to fight him later.

I will, the opening area I'm saving for last. But I will go back and redo some graphics. A couple of NPCs need some new sprites. Plus I'm going to go through the events and fix any that need to be enhanced so nothing looks awkward. (Like President Shinra appearing out of nowhere on the bridge in the mako reactor.) And I'll see if I can add in some of the dialogue that's missing from the game.

But then again, in this remake, the scene where Aeris and Cloud escape out of the roof of the Church is cut out. So since they just go out the front door that Reno and the Shinra soldiers are blocking, it seems appropriate. But if that part were included in the game, I would cut Reno out of that fight.

I do not understand why Scarlet is called Palmer in each of the scenes where either of them appear. Even Palmer has Scarlet's sprite in the scenes where it is him.
Don't know if that was mentioned before in the thread.

Also, Lugia, did you know that Square Enix released Final Fantasy Chips? It's a musical album where are official 8-bit remixes of music of Final Fantasy VII-XI. I liked Turk's theme, it's quite original. You could draw your inspiration for music from there.

An 8-bit musical album? I'll have to check that out.

They're pretty good; I'm a fan of the battle themes from it myself. :3

That's pretty cool, If I can redo the music for this game, I'll use these as inspiration.

It was, I'm not sure why they did this either.

Nice floor patterns! Could you work on the enemies now?

Zoinkity · « **Reply #857 on:** September 24, 2012, 11:02:39 am »

Impatient, impatient, impatient ;*)
What's the harm of letting 'em work at their own pace?

InfamousKnight · « **Reply #858 on:** September 24, 2012, 05:42:00 pm »

He said he will work on the enemies when he gets around 50 maps left. Idk how many he has left.

justin3009 · « **Reply #859 on:** September 24, 2012, 10:27:46 pm »

Yeah, don't think spamming is going to help the pace either. He'll work on them when he does. In the mean time, just relax and enjoy what's going on right now.
