Ring Shop. Share rings and that fortune thing with your friend. You need to link with a friend to do it.

Elmo, as a side note, the correct names for Lufia and Lufia 2 are Lufia and the Fortress of Doom and Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals, respectively, but I'll give ya credit... and you got all the others besides Donut Plains, and since I already said Donut Plains, I'll give ya that one too. 16BT was right about which one had the most levels.

#12 HINT:
The scrambled character:

RYGA MLECAON

Now, unscramble that, and you have a major character in the game. Remember, this game is much newer than you might expect.

...With music being ignored, I would want to live in Narshe. Neutral town, lots of tech, and its nice and chilly... and I live in the mountains, and near Moogles galore! But of course... would I want to live there after the Floating Continent event in the game? Probably not.

I WOULDN'T want to live in Zozo at any time. Too much.... killing.

Oh, and I take it the Tiamat fight rumor is false, right?

Final Fantasy Epica. Pre-FFHackster days, and yet so much was done to it... it almost felt like a new game! For what was available at the time it was made, this game was amazing. Of course, when Disch releases his hack with all those nice menu changes and the day/night hack... I MIGHT have to change my mind on this...

Finally, Nick got it. The hint could be unscrambled to say "Gary Coleman," who is featured in Postal 2. And, Neko, I would have liked a NAME for the character, but since you seemed to know her well enough, I'll let it slide this time... her name is Erim. Uncle Elmo got #24. No one's gotten #26. Make sure you know that it is CURRENTLY advertising this way... meaning the game is either brand new or not even out yet.

Easy solution: make sure the coordinates match up. It only warps to where it's designated to warp. Thus, you must... make the coordinates match

Weird... I actually had this problem too, once... but it worked on all other comps...

Checked for viruses recently?

EDIT: can you go more in depth on your comp specifications, including the amount of space you started with?

Well, here's the reason I'm making this topic: I have actually been PMed a bunch (not as much here, but at the old board... A LOT) with questions about hacking Final Fantasy. Well, from some newbies, anyway. It's as if they thought I knew something about hacking the game. I usually had to refer them to Disch or Dark Lord Steak, but being newbies, they didn't listen to me, and usually left their problems unsolved. Well, that, combined with the fact that paradox is making a new FF-hacking related topic every week, has pushed me to the point of making this topic. Oh yeah, that and boredom, too.

If you have questions about hacking Final Fantasy that aren't answered in this topic thus far, then you should probably ask your question in this topic. That way, we don't clutter up the forum with a bunch of questions that have been answered 9 million times before (and believe me, it's happened. I believe paradox just last week asked 3 questions that I asked when I first came). So, ask away!

...But first, here are the most frequently asked questions that I have witnessed in recent history:

---------------------------------

QUESTION: How do I edit the intro screen?
ANSWER: The text for the intro screen starts at $37F30. So, using a hex editor and a DTE table, jump to that address, and then start editing the text. It should be noted that when you type \n into the text, it becomes a line break. It should also be noted that changing the 00 byte at the end of the text probably wouldn't be wise... I don't know why. But this is what I have been told. I haven't really looked into it. Also, if you want to change the color of the background on the intro screen, go to $3A12C. The value is currently set at $01, which is blue. (I think you can change it to black, gray, or white. The values for those are $0F, $30, and $00, respectively) And the fade-in text color is at $3A2E3... I think that's all there is to say here.

QUESTION: How do I change the speed of the fade-in on the intro screen?
ANSWER: Go to $3A2C8. The speed is currently set at $0F. By changing the value to something closer to 00, you make it faster, and by making it closer to FF, you make it slower.

QUESTION: Will someone please give me character names/town names/story ideas/etc.?
ANSWER: Well, I believe I asked one question of this sort when I was new. Most of the time, it is best to come up with these things yourself instead of relying on others.By doing so, you also get to make your credits shorter.

QUESTION [from paradox]: for final fantasy 1 (for the hack i made) i made the first town all desert (cause thats were you start out)....whenever i enter the town i start some where else instead of where the area is located...alittle help please
ANSWER[from Disch]: If you moved where the character is supposed to enter the town, you also have to change the game so it actually puts the character there when you enter it.

You can do this in Hackster by the following:

- On the overworld map, right click on the tile that teleports your player to the town
- Click the "View Coords" button
- Adjust the X and Y coordinates so that they point to the new entry position. (You can also change which map you teleport to, as well).

QUESTION:NASIR IS GIVING ME PROBLEMS!!! MY ROM SCREWS UP WHEN I CHANGE HIS NAME!
ANSWER[by Vagla]: That's because there's a checksum on NASIR. NASIR apparently didn't like people getting his name out of the game... yet this game was made way before rom hacking started, so...

In Vagla's words, how to bypass the NASIR checksum:

Do either one of these:

3CFEF- A900
-or-
3CFEF- 2900

There's really no difference. Both feed it 00, which is what the hack requires (one does it by loading the current value as 00, and the other ANDing the current value to 00).

QUESTION: How do I change the color of the menus?
ANSWER: Look through these documents. Those are where most of these answers are coming from anyway

QUESTION: How do I make default names for my party and change the party selection screen?
ANSWER: Read this.

QUESTION: How do I change enemy palettes, enemy names, standard maps, overworld maps, and almost every other bit of data in FF?
ANSWER: Yes, I made that question up right now. But, anyway, the answer is FFHackster. Get FFHackster. It is incredibly user-friendly, and it lets you edit a LOT of stuff, like classes, maps, enemies, text, items, battles, weapons/armor, etc.

QUESTION: How do I edit the game selection screen?
ANSWER: This is actually quit simple. Firstly, to edit the New Game/Continue/Respond Rate text, go to $3A263 with a DTE table and edit away! To change the Copyright (for Square and Nintendo) text, go to $384B8 with the table and edit that. I forget exactly where the palette for the background here is, but I'm sure it's in one of the big docs.

QUESTION: How do I edit the bridge text?
ANSWER: Go to $36843 with a DTE table, and it's all there. Immediately after that, the ending text is there, at $368F3. The NINTENDO on the bridge screen is at $2FF72.

QUESTION: How the hell do you know all this stuff?
ANSWER: I don't really KNOW it... I borrowed most of this info from these documents. If you are ever in doubt and have a legitimate question about hacking Final Fantasy, first read those documents. If the question is not answered there, and you can't seem to fix the problem in FFHackster, THEN you should come and post in this topic. Someone is bound to help ya out. (I'll try, and I am willing to bet that Dark Lord Steak and Disch will probably be better at answering stuff than me. )

Well, if you want to put your OWN music in there, Sliver-X has written a nice little doc on that,

And... the music data is in that doc that Imajin gave ya. Combine the knowledge you get from the two and I am pretty sure that you will be able to fully edit the music in the game.

Um, but if you just want to rip music from somewhere else, then... I don't exactly have a doc on me for that, but at least you have the doc with the music bytes... so... learn how to rip and insert music, and then use that data.

Originally posted by Imajin
And he even links to all those documents


That's because I'm not always on the same computer when I'm working on this. So, instead of having to redownload the docs every time, I just have them right there.

EDIT: whoa, this got stickied!
