The convenience of having them available to you outweighs the potential issues of the enemies having them as well, imo.

Oh agreed. This isn't really a "make monsters good patch". There's some attempt at it, but we don't push too hard in that direction because monsters aren't customizable, so they're generally not as fun as humans.

As a mixed team runner Dorter 2 thieves made me sad.

Just registered on here to give a big thanks to Laggy and everybody else working on the mod. This is my favorite FFT mod and I've played it multiple times now and am having fun watching it being Let's Played because I tend to play around and grind because I find it entertaining (Or if you prefer, I'm a wimp). I'm getting ready to download and install it on a new computer and enjoy it all over again because I am a laggy addict and figure that if I come across anything I should try to add to a project I've spent so much time enjoying.

Uh that's pretty ridiculously awesome and uplifting to hear. Thanks for taking the time to register just to post, that means all kinds of appreciation to me!

Feel free to ramble on whatever you want on impressions of the mod, although I've mostly stalled further development (mainly because it is a finished product) I always love to hear it. Quick survey plug about how you find the thing too, if you don't mind.

Just grabbed the LFT+Complete patch, figure I'll start fresh from scratch with a new game. Possibly dig around and see about starting up a LP of it myself, if I have the time. As always, big ups to you guys for putting this patch out. It remains my favorite.

Alright, alright. I'll bite. It's a slow morning. I am a streamer on a (I'd like to think) at least slightly popular site called Do You Like Vidya Games. I started up a run of LFT a while ago, power supply died, and well, so did the run. New computer. New memory. Started again, on stream of course, naming members after stream viewers, letting them pick classes and such, and I guess what I'm asking is, is there anything I could do to help out? I'm enjoying the mod brutally spanking my lacking attention span and memory at times, so I'd like to give back. I have the recordings from the streams, so I could put those up on Youtube, I could alert for streams or...something. I'd like to help, in any way possible, if you guys would like something done.

I have noted, y'know, the bit where you guys are mostly done modifying it, which, while a bit sad for me (I love seeing things change and grow, especially in the video games department), is completely understandable. An end to all things and such. Still, I figured I'd put the offer out, and let you guys know me, and quite a few other people appreciate your hard work, and are having fun thanks to it.

Why don't you upload the streams to youtube and give us a shout when the streams run? We always have a blast watching others play LFT and also like giving feedback. If you want to talk to us about the hack and nerdery in general, we also have an IRC channel where you can annoy us (handy link on the how to here).

Also, welcome!

It seems that this thread is quiet a lot! So, here I come with more suggetions.

I'm not sure (just erased my save without the intention and just have to play it all from the beginning, but I'm not complaining; I love this hack), but can the special units do the propositions? If not, could they do it? Already have seen this on other patchs and I think it's a nice addition!

The possibility to change the name of a human unit, and not only monsters, is a cool thing too. Nice to see it here (never used before).

Hoxir · « **Reply #1885 on:** July 11, 2012, 12:11:21 AM »

Is this topic abandoned?

I had and ideia that can be cool, I think... is there a way to exchange the real course of things? Like having access to DD after beating Altima, what makes much more sense. This way the game could be... infinite, too, but I don't know if I'm asking for too much.

Chaoshawkins · « **Reply #1886 on:** December 10, 2012, 08:56:50 AM »

I also would like some after game content, and some new classes would be nice if possible. like onion knight or dark knight. maybe some other final fantasy characters if possible. just throwing out some neat ideas, obviously might not be possible but if any of it is, that would be awesome,

Laggy · « **Reply #1887 on:** December 13, 2012, 06:48:03 PM »

The topic is not quite abandoned, but barring major bug fixes, LFT development is more or less completed. We're still mostly handling discussion in IRC (drop by irc.lunarnet.org #rpgdl if you want real-time inquiries).

Re: Onion Knight and Dark Knight, while it is theoretically possible to add new classes to the game with the current available editing tools, it's not quite the same thing as adding them wholesale from the PSP version.

Reiska · « **Reply #1888 on:** December 15, 2012, 03:41:08 AM »

At this point my only wishlist for LFT is pretty much for someone to port of it what is possible to port (the non-ASM parts, essentially; class/ability changes, ENTD, etc.) to the PSP version of FFT so I can have a version of LFT playable on-the-go, even if it's a little inferior to the PSX version.

(Because, sadly, the PSX version won't run on hardware or on the PSP's PSX emulation layer.)

So long story short, I lurked around here for a while, picked up another hack, finished it, picked up this hack and loved it. I got to Chapter 4 and was making steady progress, then put it down for a little bit.

Then I hit Adramelk, who is not even remotely fair. Not only is he designed where he MUST be killed in a single turn, but it seems like it's assumed that you go in with Haste and Reraise and that you spent the previous battle kiting around, Yelling, and regenerating everyone to full. And then he has Critical Quick so I have to nail the HP perfectly, when I don't know the HP total? That's not fun. After banging my head on the battle for hours, I still don't even know his HP total.

What do I have to do? Make my entire team Undead (and would that even work to nullify his damage)? Force Dycedarg to walk up to my team before killing him? Yell for an hour like in the old Vanilla Wiegraf battle? As it is I'm pretty much forced to have the following spells go off in this order to have a chance:

Life Drain
Lich
Lightning Stab
Life Drain
Titan

I'd hate to put the hack down because of this battle. It's been great so far and I really want to see the rest of it.

Dark Holy Elf · « **Reply #1890 on:** January 30, 2013, 01:36:16 AM »

Is Night Sword the problem? If so, you can provoke him to turn your entire party undead if you don't do loads of damage before his first turn.

metroid composite · « **Reply #1891 on:** January 30, 2013, 04:45:35 AM »

Yeah, the battle is designed such that you're *supposed* to let him hit your entire team with the infinite range infinite AoE undead spell. There's other ways to win if you use a really overpowered party, but that's how normal parties are supposed to open against him.

Evil Spilit · « **Reply #1892 on:** January 30, 2013, 01:11:49 PM »

Ahh, that makes sense. I had been using a Reraise strategy so I basically did everything I could to NOT get hit by that attack. Thanks for the advice.

He's also vulnerable to Don't Move, which is the obscure status strategy to shut him out if you really don't want to deal with that fight.

Laggy strats, your immediate thought should be to Zombie your entire team. Alternately stop the enemy doing something if you really want.
