Sorry for bugging you guys again. Is there an existing version for the public to use yet by any chance? If not, there's no rush!

Hey, your enthusiasm is appreciated, and you are definitely NOT bugging us! There's a beta release in the main post that includes all of the Amano sprites for the main characters and NPCs! Ill keep you posted! :)

Hi all,

I come seeking aid for a complete music overhaul project I'm working on. This is for the PC\Steam version of the game, but I hear that the game files are identical so it could be useful for other ff6 formats.

I cannot get the songs that I've included in the game (I've done them all) to loop properly.

~What I did:
I took all the music .akb files using FFVIExplore, found orchestral music online, converted those to .obb, looped them by samples (LoopStart= and LoopEnd=) in Audacity, created an .obb that has the same type of content in the file (looked at an .akb file and noticed it only had LoopStart= and LoopEnd= , no authors or comments, etc), took the akb header info for all the files and put them in the new.obb files, renamed file.obb to file.akb, and put them in the game. I did this for all the music except for the opera scene and the final battle (was going to do that later).

~The Result:
The result is that everything plays in the game, but the looping doesn't! It loops flawlessly in audacity, but the game doesn't seem to care where I put my LoopEnd=.


~Discoveries:
1): The game will only recognize new music up to the length of the original song. So if the original song goes for X samples, and my new song goes for Y>X samples, It won't recognize any loops or content after X samples.

2): All the loop information that the game uses is in the akb file. I tried making a song where all the loop information is within the original length of the song next. This resulted in the exact same looping behaviour in all previous attempts! It seems that the akb file contains not just the length of the song, but the entire loop content (despite the original ogg files containing loop data too).

If somebody can help me out with generating akb files from ogg files, that would be great!

Hey, I was just wondering if this was still in development :)

Question regarding the SNES Nostalgia Mode: Would there be a way to toggle on/off large character portraits like how it's shown in the first half of the trailer, vs. the literal SNES sprites starting at 1:30? It's a nice touch what you did, but just wondering how much customization there will be between defilter, color preferences, reshade, etc...

It'll be super customizable. When it's done, you'll be able to fully install the Nostalgia Pack, lightly install it (sprites only) or manually install, which will let you mix and match the skins from both sets as well as choose which UI changes you'd like to install such as snes battle portraits!

So just a heads up, After multiple attempts of creating concept art for the game that wouldn't look creepy/ out of place, I've decided to repaint the sprites while changing certain aspects giving it a more darker feel. I am however completely changing as of now zero's sprite sheet I will be changing a few sprite sheets in the future, and If i decide to again change the sprites completely I will upload both the new sprites + the "reskin" characters for your preference. As of now though I will be focusing on the reskins.

Awesome. Let me know if you need help along the way :)

Hey, I've been trying to edit palettes using the guide but I'm having no luck getting it to display properly in the game.

I was using Gimp, but even when I rearranged the palette for the background and the outline it displayed wrong in game.

I got Photoshop CC to see if could duplicate your method, but I can't seem to reorder the color table in CC to place bg color and outline into the first two slots.

I opened the extracted sheet, the edited sprite sheet and made a new sheet. Background color is the same.

I copied my sprites into New sheet, cut them out and generated the palette. Saved palette. Pasted my sprites back.

Went to original sprite sheet and cut them out. Loaded my palette file, pasted the originals back.

Pasted my edits on top of the sprite sheet. Exported as a bmp. Inserted it into the corresponding GZ folder.

Load game, still looks like a zombie. Do I have to edit all of the entries in the color index one by one just to get the bg and outline to the top of the list?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time!

I think most people honestly don't care one way or another. Just look at Dissidia and Opera Omnia. They seem to not mind that she is made blondish instead of green. They're probably just curious.

Still, pretty darn cool 12k+ people now know about your work cvg! Now they can all see your awesome talent! :)

43.4k as of now :P

There's a program that allows users to edit files, but I believe the actual game is the FF6A rom being emulated into a program that displays the modern port graphics. I know somebody used the GBA patch to restore the Celes torture scene to the PC version. I'm not sure how advanced GBA rom hacking is, but something like this for GBA could potentially lead to a mod with the Ted Woosley script being put into the game amongst other things.

Thanks so much for changing the mod! I didn't know if you'd want to, but I so much appreciate that you did. Looks great.

Thank you for helping me see my errors, it really helped me to improve the mod :) I'm glad you like it and I hope that you enjoy!

That's amazing! Thank you for the hard work man! <3

You're very welcome! If you downloaded it before getting this message, I actually uploaded it again this morning. The sevens were incorrect, which has since been fixed. Final final release. I promise lol

This isn't Chicago... This is the DOS system font. What site did you get the font from? Standard Chicago doesn't have serifed i's and l's, and its g is a standard 9-shaped g.

Thank you so much for telling me! I've updated the file, now with 100% MORE Chicago Font! :P
