Must just be me...using an N-card btw. I think R4 has no probs at all. Encountered same bug on the quest that gives you the fighter job.

are you sure you are using the latest patch ?

 

[Mieki]

I sure I am. 0.2.4 right? I got the dragoon job, but cant seem to get the fighter.

Gonna try to redump.

Hope i helped your great work

Your file after the expanding process should be 116 111 148 octets (or bytes) big (I tried twice the expansion, got twice that byte count, which is too much of a coincidence to be a coincidence...).
Unless I'm mistaken, of course.

Suggestion to the team: could you post the bytecount of your expanded files after the patch releases?
That could help with differenciating real patching issues from simple manipulation errors.

Merci pour le boulot effectué.

Thats because these names are too lenghty.
I think it would be mush less worse too have abbreviated names for weapons and quests, than full names with these glitches, IMO...
Its not like we can see/read the full name anyway. When browsing quests at pub or itens in shop, you can only read the name up to the point where it begins to overlap anyway, so its still an incomplete name after all.

Got this:

Size: 110 MB (116,116,268 bytes)

Size on Disk: 110 MB (116,129,792 bytes)

I don't know what's wrong. Perhaps my N-card? used ppf-o-matic for patching 0.2.4. Gonna put up my save file in a while. In the save file, on the second save slot, I've seem to have one of those random events. Game freezes when you get an item.

EDIT: Here's the save file http://www.gigasize.com/get.php?d=kg9w9q8jlzb

 

[nicklessguy]

Did you apply the patch over a rom that was already previously patched?
You need to do it from a clean rom, aways, or you screw up your rom.

 

[Deleted User]

I'll add md5 check in the next patcher to enforce a clean rom was used.

EDIT : oups double post....

 

[RedIce]

Is there any size restrictions while editing table47 (Skill descriptions)?
I was going to try and edit them so they looked like FFTA's ones

example

Inflict damage and ?Oil? on target

to

Inflicts damage and ?Oil? status ailment.

etc, that kind of nitpicking

it has to fit one line.




How many chars is one line?

Btw, i think the [Don't Act] status effect is actually [Disable]

I took the string template from FFTA (there It's Don't Act / Move, too)
http://www.ffcompendium.com/h/jobs/ffta.shtml
eg: Blind - Inflict Blind on enemy
or: Fire Whip - Inflict Fire-elemental damage and "Don't Act" on target

From that page, on ffta page at least, it's Disable and Immobilize too:

# Aim: Legs - Immobilize target for three turns
# Aim: Arm - Disable target for three turns

(thats on the Archer link)

Got this:

Size: 110 MB (116,116,268 bytes)

That's the size after the previous patch. I would say you applied the parch on an already-patched file. Which would account for the problems you have.

 

[Mieki]

Ok. So do I have to patch everything in order?

 

[reilina]

no get a new clean rom put it on the enlarger.exe then patch it with pff

 

[Deleted User]

for the next release I've made my own patcher, so it will be only program to run, and the program will check that you are using a clean rom. Hope this helps.

Ok, just did a repatch then redump. Everything seems to be fine now. Thanks for your help.

Also, does summoner require only 1 elementalist skill? Even though I already have 2 I can't seem to get it. Does it need a quest?

It's a mistranslation. It was fixed on the wiki. When you have questions like this, it would be best to check the wiki. And even better, you are allowed to correct mistakes.
