I will need to look in to this. I've got 1,000's of fonts so maybe I've got some that will work with the space allowed.

That's pretty cool! Anytime. :D I like that fact that you found the crystal animation at least. Any ideas on the rest?

I would love to see someone put this sort of thing in action. If the formula is created maybe I will whip up a quick tech demo hack showing how it could be used. :)

This is pretty damn cool. Final Fantasy IV so needs this sort of development and attention. I'm getting bored of seeing Final Fantasy VI and CT stuff. :)

I didn't have any trouble with the copyright mark or the vertical space you are referring to...
Can you show me what specifically you're referring to so I can take another look?

LOL
Looks good! It sort of looks similar to my title screen I made for you-know-who's hack. :) The EasyType title gave a good example how to utilize the tiles and palettes I think.
BTW, here is what I managed to do with editing Final Fantasy II US:

« on: April 04, 2015, 10:11:01 AM »I wonder why didn't NOA just change the IV to a II instead of completely changing out the title screen. Sure they needed to fit Nintendo of America, but still.
The spacing wasn't/isn't there. To properly have a pixel perfect Final Fantasy IV using the US style larger letters requires more real estate. The mods out there that change one of the I's in to a V visualize what I'm talking about. While they don't look bad it wouldn't of worked originally due to that lack if space and a redesign would of been needed. Plus having said all of that the US style letters were only created because Square didn't want to use Final Fantasy IV's numbering.

Ok here is more data for you all to chew on. Lets organize all of the offsets. My problem is I cannot locate the assembly code that loads the extra Japanese title subroutines for transparency and the dual layers. It should be noted that Final Fantasy IV and Final Fantasy IV EasyType have slightly different title screens which includes having the "EASY TYPE" text also have a rotating palette like the crystal does when loaded on the title screen. Also Final Fantasy IV EasyType does not have two layers for the "FINAL FANTASY IV" text either. Plus the palette data is slight different as you'll see below. It is also an interesting note that the crystal is duplicated and one layer is shifted slightly up and to the left while the top layer (layer 1) is also transparent like the "FINAL FANTASY IV" text.
