Why not 7z? 

[Lenophis]

I don't have 7z. Besides, rar works just as well for something like this.

[Deathlike2]

You should try 7-Zip at some point.

[Lenophis]

Eat that, FF6A.

Erm, what's so different?

[Lenophis]

That location string you see at the top of the screen was set in the original game. It was even set to show up, however, it never did. It was probably assumed to be normal behavior that it never show up, but looking at the data says other things.

I don't remember if FF6A made this string appear or not, but I'll just assume it did since it made others appear.

I agree with Deathlike: Leno, you should get 7-zip. According to Wikipedia, and this article they cite, the algorithm 7-zip uses gets the best compression, for both text and raw binaries. So it's not just an opinion, it's been tested independently.

I am reviving this thread to show off one screenshot:



Seeing as though the general public has not been able to experience the music box outside of Youtube, an explanation is needed. Originally when this was implemented way back when, 2 songs would not fully play: The Phantom Train and Dancing Mad. The reason for this eluded me for quite a while, and it wasn't until recently that it bugged the hell out of me. Well tonight I decided to give another go at finding out exactly what was causing it. I finally found it. So, rejoice. The Phantom Train and Dancing Mad will both play fully as you would normally hear them.

The release of this patch will be the most epic FF3/6 hack ever. I am truly looking forward to it! Another 5 years maybe? 

[Lenophis]

So I decided to give something a try last night just to see how easy it was going to be.



...Pretty damn easy, in fact.

That is nothing short of awesome right there, Leno. That's how I always wanted and thought the blitz menu should have been like, it makes much since to also have the name of the blitz along with the combo. Wonderful job, as always! And lol @ the Konami Code for the 'Master Fist', I did the same exact thing. XD

I am trying to contain my excitement for the next release!

Love all the great things you guys are doing. Now keep it under wraps until release!

Naw just kidding keep reeling me in.

The hit rate should've been added a long time ago, but it took a discussion with assassin to finally get the inspiration to do it.

[Deathlike2]

In the context of the original, hit rate had very little impact. I knew they were trying to differentiate the accuracy of weapons in FF5, and moreso in FF6, but given the dependency on skills or magic... I guess that has been a long time coming!

You guys rock my socks.
