I was just at that part actually,
And it's "Bushido in the Bedroom"

 :|

It's true form is a porno magazine right?

Skyrender's translation is very literal, so it's as close to the japanese game as you're going to get.  So yeah, the GBA version is VERY censored.  The actual Japanese game has a lot of cursing and adult situations.
If you're asking yourself "Why don't I play Skyrender's version?"
Well, like I said, it's very, very, literal.  I don't know how else to describe it.  Also he changed all the names, like Kefka is Cefca, Gestahl is Ghastoria or something, espers are "phantom beasts", I don't know, I tried and I really didn't like it so I wanted to make the best of both worlds.

I'm almost done so it should be released by tomorrow, or the next day.

There's one problem though, I don't know how to create an IPS patch.

And I think if I link to a rom the admins or whatever are going to either delete the topic or ban me.

So I can either figure out how to do that or you can just message me and I'll give it to you.

We'll see.
 
Will you change the font?

You could exchange the in-game font with the one from the
GBA version, it could be useful for space problems solving... maybe.

Oh, and for making IPS' files you should search for 'Lunar IPS' in google.
 
I could do that.

But for the space problem, I usually just add an extra page to the script.  Hopefully that doesn't cause any problems, I tried it out at the beginning of the game and it didn't seem to mess up anything.

We'll see.  I'll probably end up making an IPS patch.  But just in case, everyone who wants it post in this page.  Or send me a message, whichever.
 
will it edit the character sprites? Because i do want to try your patch, but i wish to keep the sprites i've chosen.
and it is possible to change the battle text, although the only editors able to do that are DOS based i believe. (i was thwarted in my attempts to change 'magic' to 'symbol', 'item' to 'pouch' etc. if you find one that can edit battle cutscene text or commands, please tell the rest of the class.  :mrgreen: )
 
For people asking about the censoring, Celes' torture scene was deleted entirely from the game due to events in Japan. This was a move done by Square themselves this time, not Nintendo. Still plenty of other parts of dialog put "nicer" as well.
 
Man, this is so cool.  It's amazing how much impact it really makes.  I played it for about 20 minutes and with these modifications I'm starting to agree with people, it is better than 7.

Kefka and the empire feel so much more evil than before, their acts seem a lot more terrible.  So you actually begin to root for the protagonist.

I don't know, the original seems so much more childish.  I kept thinking this is a pain in the ass, but yeah it was worth it.  I think it's tied with Resident Evil 2 as my favorite.

I don't like new games so much for some reason.  I can never get into them.  I guess because I grew up with the Nintendos, and the Playstation.  And I like retro things.

It's almost like when they remaster your old favorite movies.

Here's an example of the modifications to the GBA script.
Cid:    Ever since that day, the world's been sliding deeper and deeper into
     ruin. Plants wither, and animals waste away.
          There were others on this island when I came to, but they're all dead
          now.  One died quickly, another went mad and killed himself, another
          died of sorrow, one drowned himself, and the last jumped off the northern cliffs.

I've never seen any translation besides Sky Render's that went into such detail about the deaths of the people there. Not even a machine translation of the original Japanese text.

I feel the same way about most new games these days.  Madden N+1 and FPS #12593 just don't do it for me at all.  Only something cute and very original can override my avoidance of such games, like Portal.

I tend to stick to new games that are very retro in nature, like the DS Castlevania games and Rockman ZX.  I love 2-D Castleroid games.
 
I'm not real crazy about how Locke calls himself a "Treasure Hunter".  Isn't there anything similar that sounds...I don't know...cooler?
 
OK.  There's a few things that I still want to change.

Change...
GP to Gil.
Fight to Attack.
SwdTech to Bushido.

And some more.  When I think of it I'll edit the post.
Once more, does anyone know how to change the battle text?
 
I'm trying to make Owzer (the art collector) more interesting.  This is from his diary.

Original:
"I met a painter from Kolinghen, about as talented as a bucket."

"My physical condition seems to be declining.
I almost wonder if it has something to do with that painting.
Recently, I've heard the strangest noises coming from the basement where I stored it."

"Last page of the diary"

Mine:
"Had a dream about a beautiful woman. I could not stop thinking about her.
I met up with an artist from Kohlingen.
He just couldn't paint her eyes right.  Frustrating."

"I feel nauseous and really anxious...
It all started when I had that portrait painted...
And I've been hearing eerie noises coming from downstairs..."

"That was the last entry..."

This is so lame...

"I'm Larry!
I'm Curly!
I'm Moe!
We're the 3 Dream stooges!"

I HAVE to change that.  But you fight them right?  So their names won't change in battle.  That sucks...
 
You know, it's possible that this could be a buggy mess...
Do you want me to release the unfinished version late tonight, or wait a week until it's all clean and polished?

"My name is Adrian.
My name is Noah.
My name is Isaac.
We're the three dream brothers."

Those are the names I came up with.  I'm open for suggestions.

Also, the program I'm using seems to let you change the names of all the monsters/bosses.  But whenever I try to save it or click out of it, the name goes back to default. :(

using FF3USME (the one with ultros as the icon) allows you to change monster names and stats.
hmm, what about Legacy hunter or something? that sounds cooler than treasure hunter!
 
I'm using FF3Edit.

OK, I'll definitely try FF3ME.  I would also like to get into hex editing.  I'm kind of a perfectionist.

I would like to change everything to a smaller font so the right names can fit.

For instance,

Cure 2            Cura
Cure 3            Curaga
Remedy            Esuna
Antdot            Poisona
Life            Raise
Life 2            Arise
Life 3             Reraise
Fire 2            Fira
Fire 3            Firaga
Ice            Blizzard
Ice 2            Blizzara
Ice 3            Blizzaga
Bolt            Thunder
Bolt 2            Thundara
Bolt 3            Thundaga
Demi            Gravity
Quartr            Graviga
Pearl            Holy
X-Zone            Banish
Doom            Death
W Wind            Tornado
Merton            Meltdown
Scan            Libra
Mute            Silence
Safe            Protect
Muddle            Confuse
Bserk            Berserk
Rflect            Reflect
Haste2            Hastega
Slow 2            Slowga
Warp            Teleport

And others, like the esper names etc.

So now the only thing the GBA version has going for it are the extra espers and that bonus dungeon.   :wink:

If any of you want to try out the unfinished version and look for any bugs, just let me know and I'll send it to you.

You can be my "beta testers".  8-)

Don't send it to anybody though.  I don't want an unfinished version floating around on the internet.
