I had a realization that the Offering+Capture Bug patch needs to be added in...

I was more amused by the singing of Issac Hayes than anything...

Generally most FF3 hacks assume the header's included... usually that's due to distribution..

In the worst case for an FF3  hack, you won't see the FF3 logo appear at all.

That hack needs a header...

When seeing if patches work.. you know something goes horribly wrong in battle more often than not.

Chef? I loved that guy. The random singing was great.

Regarding Bernie Mac...

I like the show he had on FOX and he seems to be pretty funny in whatever movie he did.

It's a sad weekend...

I'll probably end up posting a link when the RDHN hack list is posted up (weekly right?) referring to the issues I have here... it would only be fair.

It doesn't look like the evade patch was used at all either...

For the record, if you know who's responsible for the Eternal Crystal Hack, feel free to point him here if you wish, but my gripe/bug list is building.

WTF??

This was the beginning of the end of my expectations:


Can we try to be more creative with the message?

Well, the script error are minor issues, but needs to be done sooner or later (I'm not going to just replay the entire hack for that purpose.. mainly because an FF3 hack doesn't have my attention long enough to redo all of it, I can't say the same for other hacks...).

I'm just biding my time with the other FF3 hack while the fixes are coming anyways.

Well.. there aren't that many item tweaks...

There are some sprite changes, with some AI changes to go with them. I'm sure I'll see more later on...

My biggest gripe is that there isn't enough outright radical changes.... which translates into "it's more of the same shit I've already played".

Also, I have played many FF1 hacks, and I love both of Grond's hacks (the original and expansion).. in fact, I've e-mailed the guy saying how I loved it (and asking about other stuff)...

Yes, but I'm already disappointed in it at the moment. A quick look at what was done is not entirely impressive.

Playing the recently posted FF3 Hack @ RHDN..

Hmm, missing one:


Exposing bugs are fun:

IIRC, the Lucky Ring is supposed to make the Lucky Knife useful.

Done, but with JCE's suggested 84 additional attack power (Bringing it to 193) it might just be too good now.

[spoiler]When you consider that the Ninja's Suit has an innate Offering, the Lucky Ring is of little consequence. Plus, I need a good reason to justify at 10000+GP purchase of the damned thing (please release this patch to test, since I just bought a set of 4).[/spoiler]

there's definitely nothing wrong with the way it's originally written.  people speak both ways, with or without the "there".

Agreed, there's no reason for his line to be "perfect," it sounds much more natural the way it's currently written.

I understand it sounds ok "naturally" in a movie or tv, it's harder to accept when written on a screen (we can agree to disagree, but it doesn't look right on screen, compared to all the other stuff that's in the script).

 
The patch does need the Genji Glove fix (especially when Gau now has a Claw+Shield combo available.
I do recall abusing Vanish+Doom in this hack... though it was limited.

IIRC, the Lucky Ring is supposed to make the Lucky Knife useful.

However, that is seemingly not the case (there's no property set that makes this happen).

Caps would be nice...

Eh?

The sentence is this..

"May be survivors inside."

The sentence doesn't make sense, regardless of how "may be" is combined or not.

The setence should read more like this...

"There may be survivors inside."
or
"Maybe there are survivors inside."

(Heck, I should've spelled it out for reference to remove all confusion.)

Anyways... some more pics..

I'm partial to merging "under" and "water" together:


That's not the name of the item you receive....


Rehash of spell check failure: 


Man, these sentences are getting worse...


On a related thought, it would probably be a good idea (tm) to change the website addy displayed in this hack, unless there are referred to the current website...

 

I did recall one other thing... after the Ultros battle (see my movie).. there seems to be a strange "hang" that occurs.. but it's actually the game trying to give you the message that you got items from Ultros and his companion, but that fails for obvious visible reasons. You need to hit 'A' a few times to fix that. I'm not sure if that should be documented in the readme or if that tandem shouldn't drop anything...

Well, it is missing a leadoff "There" or a "they're" after "Maybe"... 

 

Your link actually proves my point, not refute it. (Or maybe, I'm not reading what you said correctly...  )
