You can't really run very well in something like that, could you? Of course, she could just levitate or something, but...She really should be floating, right? I mean, she's so damn elegant. And the sprite in Justin's avatar just needs a wee bit of tweaking before it could be used as a floating/running sprite.
Why is her affinity Shadow though? o.O Due to her personality, it should definitely be Light...
I'm either going to go with daggers, or create a custom tech somewhere and just have it be really weak physical damage. I'd have to figure out to see if we can make it's damage based on physical attack though.
Halation would be very bad idea on Schala XP. MP Buster no. I can't remember the rest.
Maybe that Dream Devourer tech that she starts off with, we could use that for a double tech with Magus/Schala once the 8th PC is ready?
Edit: Walking is done in all directions. Jees that was a task...so much SA to do.
On other note, what should her icon be in the menu for weapons?
(http://i36.tinypic.com/dcsebl.png)
Dagger(s) would be fitting for Schala, looking at her daughter-clone Kid and all...
One should have her "seal" an enemy (or perhaps lock their tech's) - just like she sealed the Gate in the Antiquity ... You know, the pyramidal type seal.
long live the queen
And Dreamless WILL be a double tech between Magus and Schala, that's for certain.
Dagger: My friend at school came up with an idea that I really never thought about. What if she THROWS daggers for her style of weapon?I'm sorry, but that is fucking awesome. If that could be implemented decently, I think it'd be real neat to watch. And maybe for critical she could just ran up and hit 'em, or something, doesn't Lucca do something like that?
She's going to have at least 1 double tech with all party members.Sounds awesome, don't overwork yourself though.
She's going to have at least 1 double tech with all party members.
Edit: I like the first 2 frames of it, those could work incredibly well. Third one could as well. The rest need to be remade.
It's a spoiler.
Is it really necessary to add a new element though? I thought Light or Heaven seemed fitting...I mean, I guess Schala's Void can relate to Magus's Shadow like Marle's Ice relates to Frog's Water (i.e, they're different names, but from the same group, or whatever), but wouldn't Light work too?
@ Mav: Yes, that's what I said in Rox's thread... I think her attack techs should be centered around heavenly bodies. (Starfall is calling down small stars to explode and damage an enemy, Comet calls down a huge ball of light, and her last tech is a blast of holy sunlight or something... That's what I had in mind, anyway)
It just seems weird to tack on a fourth element... But to each his own!, I didn't mean to say that we should include a new element: I always considered Marle's element and Frog's element to be the same, just with different names, so couldn't Schala's element technically be the same as Crono's element, just with a different name? Basically what Darkman said, just with more words. :P
Magic's made up of the four powers Sky, Dark,He doesn't, however, ever say that Shadow is just the other three elements, but contends that it's a rare element. So I guess we don't have a definitive answer either way...
Fire, and Water.
What about another type of Golem? Do a quick recolor and just give it another name? Or some time of uber-Hekran?I was thinking a recolored Golem would be fitting (hell, I'd help recolor it, if necessary). But another Heckran would be neat. We wouldn't have to call it Heckran either--we'll just rip off the sprite and recolor it: I always liked seeing color-swapped bosses...but I hate when they had the same name.
Yeah, don't worry, feedback is appreciated. I'd like to have Schala play a bigger role as well, but I think having her be inflicted with a life-threatening illness is more dramatic and gut-wrenching, especially for Janus...True true...I just think Schala needs to some how be active in all this...I mean, let's say other villagers were being affected in huge numbers and she was the only source for their cure, but then she became afflicted. With Schala losing out to this plague of sorts, the villagers went to someone else--and eventually find solace in the Daltonites (who created the problem, so they should have the solution). Once Crono and co. find out, they decide to save Schala, but in a fit they end up killing the Daltonites and are left with one vile, while Schala and others are succumbing to the illness. So they save Schala, and now she's become the start of a new solution, you just have to re-engineer the potion or something.
And on second thought, yes, the idea that the Daltonites would just randomly make a robot of Dalton is kind of dumb... I'll change it to the "Head Daltonite", though Mecha-Dalton has more of a "coolness factor". (Though less logical...)It was neat as hell, I loved the idea of a robot Dalton--had a good ol' Scifi feel to it.
Schala: ...Now, banish her to the Darkness Beyond Time!
Or you could use whatever it was called in CTDS--Time's Eclipse?
(Also, can I re-post the tech list? It's getting annoying to go back six pages to look at it...)Please do, I was about to suggest the same thing.
Grand Slam is good, mav.Many thanks man. Looking through the tech lists on the Encyclopedia made that easier for me to come up with. :)
What's wrong with Heavenly Peal and Prismatic Beam? Thunder is extremely loud, and it's thunder coming from the heavens, thus Heavenly Peal. The DD uses it, why not the team? Also, Prismatic Beam sounds better than Prism Beam or Rainbow Beam to me...They don't sound bad...it's just that the word choice sounds a little strange. If the word peal has already thrown someone off, then you can expect a ton of people to think of a different meaning for the word. At first glance I though it said Peel, and I wouldn't be too surprised if other people expect it to be some kind of Life Shaver or something. Prismatic Beam isn't too bad, it makes sense. And they description of the tech does properly correspond to the way a prism works so, I guess it's fine. But look, we should be open to some more tech names, if you ask me, the more it sounds like something from the Chrono series, the better.
Maybe another offensive attack. She only has what...2? And they're both incredibly powerful. Maybe a weaker one to start off with.I agree--she needs another offensive attack. And if my lame attempts at coming up with techniques told me anything, it's that her offensive magic is just ridiculously amazing. She needs a weak white element-type spell, something like Chrono Cross's Photon Ray.
Dream Star... I don't know... Dreamer's Star has a better...ring to it, you know?Eh, I think Dream Star sounds a lot better. I like the name Lodestar, but that's really got a whole 'nother meaning to it. Honestly, some techs need new names...but it seems like you're pretty stuck on what you've chosen, so whatever.
Restore to Starfall are "level 1" techs, I suppose... Since Comet is officially a "level 2" spell, that and Guardian can be considered "level 2s"... And then Arise and Holy for "level 3s".No, no, that's exactly what I was asking. I figured Guardian was where level 3 would start, but you're the boss.
Or is that not what you meant at all? o.O
What do you mean by "finalizing"? o.O I think they sound good... But others may have objections.Finalize, as in come up with the names of techs that will basically go into the hack. Like whether we're choosing Holy Smite or Holy Cross (I'm partial to the latter) and what'll replace Holy Frog Smash, if anything. Or if anyone has any leftover name objections--Heavenly Peal, for instance, was up for debate, thankfully it's grown on me, but I'm sure there are others too (Light-speed Fist hasn't grown on me, sadly). And since Justin left commentary on the techs, I thought now would be the time to look into those as well.
Edit: The DS events will NOT be included in this separate rom hack for specific reasons.
Double post. Applied the VWF Menu font patch, fixed a few bugs, updated the attack icon and am now going to rename her items and possibly use a couple of the unused ones if needed. I'll edit my post as soon as I believe I have it ready.My God man, you're one helluva guy, don't overwork yourself.
Those reasons being...?I assume that there'll be a lot of hacking to add both this and the new DS events into the game. Space-wise, it could be an issue, but then again, I don't really know the logistics of all this. In any event, too much new material may outshine the features of the Schala project all together, right?
The only event that will be displayed in this hack will be Time's Eclipse. Everything else, no.
Is everyone okay with her single techs? Can we finalize those? After that, we can begin polishing her dual and triple techs...I think the single techs are ready to roll: they sound fine, the levels of 'em seem appropriate, and the principles of 'em seem pretty damn decent. The descriptions might need to be rewritten, and since we're not using the DS translation, I'll look up the descriptions from the original release and see if the ones Chocobo came up with will fit.
So, does this mean that the patch will only be for the DS version? That's a pity... I was looking forward to playing it. :cry:Heh... quite the opposite, my friend.
No, this isn't the DS > SNES hack. This will be a completely separate hack because there more then likely won't be enough room to add anything else. Adding the translation would take awhile. We can't even do that when the outline itself is bugging up like no other.
Makes no sense at all..

Edit: Anyone know the story counter for when Schala gets kidnapped by Dalton in the Algetty Elder's house? I need that little event to work on this =|Well, I don't know if this is exactly what you need, but this is what was on the encyclopedia:
After the party freed Melchior and regrouped among the Earthbound, Schala noted that she had refused to help bring the Ocean Palace to full speed. Dalton then kidnapped her, threatening to kill her if anyone opposed his actions. At the Ocean Palace, Queen Zeal forced her to use the Pendant to unlock the Mammon Machine's full potential, which caused the Ocean Palace Incident. Aghast at the wild energies and dark auras erupting from the Machine, she attempted to stop it but was shocked into submission by her mother. In her last gesture, she transported Magus and the remaining party members away after Lavos killed Crono in his attempt to save her and stop the beast. This was her final appearance; she remained behind amid the collapsing palace. The only solace concerning her demise came at the ending of Chrono Trigger, when Magus noted that he would search for Schala in 12000 B.C. without fail. After defeating Lavos, it would become his life's objective.I'll try to find a video that showcases all this, if that'd help.
Edit: Belthasar's palette is bad in the Time Freeze and Janus's palettes is bad in Time Freeze and Ocean Palace Throneroom. ??? Not sure how to solve this... Janus's palette just doesn't workIn the original CT, Janus and Schala share a palette. Maybe you're hitting the palette limit?
(http://i39.tinypic.com/14adeuh.png) - Fixed all letters. The grammar spacing still needs fixing. Anywho, does this font look better then the other one? Or should we stick with the FF9 one.The font in that screenshot looks phenomenal. Something didn't look right with the FF9 font...I wasn't sure what, but that font...it looks perfect.
Edit: Bahamut Lagoon font. It looks really similar to the DS menu font O_o
have you done other characters utunnels?Not really, I'm trying to figure out the palette thing. :)

First of all, Time's Eclipse in the Japanese version is called "Toki no Yami" = The Darkness of Time. O SNAP.
The full text of the Eclipse scenario and ending follows:
(note, I had Magus in my fighting party, but as far as I can tell all the lines below are spoken by future!Magus and not by party!Magus.)
？？？「ここには、もうラヴォスはいない。
ここはすでにラヴォスが倒された
未来の時空だ。
俺たちがヤツを滅ぼした。
???: Lavos is no longer here.
This is a future timespace where
Lavos has already been defeated.
We destroyed him.
[I find it curious that this future(?) Magus refers to himself throughout this ending as 'ore'--
Magus in the rest of CT refers to himself as 'watashi' everywhere but a single scene.]
Ｍａｇｕｓ「もっとも、お前たちが

Perhaps we should change replace the word joy with justice?I like what they're doing in Kajar with Glenn at Magus' death in the Schala hack. Where he finds that the joy he was chasing in killing Magus wasn't there to begin with.
The Other Promise from Kingdom Hearts 2 comes to mind.
Oh, that sounds really out of character. It never seemed to me like Frog was under the illusion of having the "thrill of the hunt". He pursued Magus to avenge his best friend, and to defend his Queen, King, and homeland- all of which should still have meaning later on. Once you find out about Lavos and Magus' motivations, it doesn't make much sense to kill him.
{Frog}: 'Twas my belief that there would be no greater justice than to vanquish him... {full break}
But the justice is naught... {null}
Wow, great job, Justin! I'm overjoyed to see my script make its way into the game! And yes, the line about Glenn's curse becoming undone did seem a little out of place... :/You know what, looking at CT's script I see the line just sittin' right there...Frog says, "Cyrus, I hath avenged thee!", and Magus responds "Defeat me, and you will break the curse on Frog." I don't know if Woolsey fucked up, but that seems really strange. Although...in the Excel sheet for the retranslation Magus's line is placed right after he says "But you shall not defeat me easily!"
I'm still baffled on how to fix that damn palette bug as well...That seems to be the only remaining one atm.What exactly is the palette bug?
Look for Medina Elder's House 1F, NPC Ozzie, to see how a MemCopy can apply a different palette to a character on the fly (Ozzie, who is naturally green, is turned blue there by that command).Could something like this be done as a quick fix for that palette issue? I have no knowledge of anything, mind you, but I figured I'd at least try saying something.

Well it wasn't just Justin, it was multiple people. (Myself, Vehek, and Mav also helped... A couple other people might've, too) But, uh, you're welcome! I can't wait until this becomes real too.
Edit: Oh! If you can't find a fitting theme for the DD battle, I think that The Last Day of the World would work great. It's a very sad, lonely, emotional theme. I think it fits Schala's despair as she is imprisoned atop Lavos very well.Is "The Last Day of the World" the same theme as "The Day The World Revived"?

{8th}: I... {delay 02} I'm so sorry... {full break}Although the dialog makes perfect sense, "idiot" doesn't sound eloquent enough for Schala. "I'm such a fool" would work...that's my opinion though.
I'm such an idiot... {delay 02} It's all my fault... {full break}
Upon seeing Retinite/Melfikk:I'm not sure whether she should know what Retinite is, but that's your call. At times it's gonna seem like she knows far too much, in comparison to the other characters. On a lesser, unnecessary note, Schala seems very heavily impacted by the Crono's death and Robo's Mother Brain scenes--does she know them well enough to react in such a way? Crono's is fine, but I feel like she's already too connected to Robo. Again, your call, not mine.
{8th}: Oh no, I've heard of this thing... {full break}
It's a terrible parasite that drains all the nutrients out of the land, preventing anything from growing! {line break}
This must be what's preventing Fiona from planting her sapling! We have to defeat it! {null}
{8th}: It seems to have lodged itself within some strange undead creature that allows it to tunnel through the sand... {full break}
We need to find a way to engage it! {null}
{8th}: It's beauty is dazzling...! {line break}Hah, I didn't even think about if anything lived in it. Anyway, It's beauty should be "Its beauty", nothing big.
I wonder how it was made. It looks like a snail shell... {delay 02} What creature once lived in it?
(What DID live in that thing? No one seems the least bit curious about the fact it looks like a snail shell. o_O)
Upon seeing the pendant react to the Forest Ruins:
{8th}: {Marle}'s pendant...! It must be reacting to something... {null}
{Magus}: {8th}?! You're-?! {delay 03}{line break}I don't really have an issue with this, other than the fact that he refers to Schala as his. I don't really know how you could reword this other than, "N-no, the {8th} I knew is..." Anyhow, it's your call--I just find that the connotation may throw some people off at first glance.
But no, you're not MY {8th}... {delay 02} She's... {full break}
Well, you'll see soon enough. But first, listen to me... {full break}
{8th}: What in Zeal's name!? W, what is this place? It seems like a jumbled mess of time and space... {delay 01} What could have caused such a massive rift in space-time? {full break}Hmm...I haven't played CTDS, so I don't know how the party reacts, but her technical knowledge seems too high...again. It's the same thing I keep noting, but I guess it's not really a problem that she's knowledgeable...
{8th}: Thank the gods... {delay 01} It looks like they did it. We're saved. {full break}We're not being screwed by censorship, but what is the precedent for the use of "God" or "the gods" in the Chrono series? I know Zeality and those fellas were asked about its use in Prophet's Guile, should we impose self-censorship or let it be?
Wait, what's that...? It looks like another door has been opened... {delay 01} Perhaps we should see what lies beyond. {null}
{Frog}: What is this? It looks like Belthasar, but isn't... {delay 01} It must be an image generated by that computer. {null}I'll just put this back in his SNES "accent": {Frog}: What be this? He hath the appearance of Belthasar, yet it is not...{delay 01} 'Tis merely a specter, generated by thine computer.
{Frog}: Lady {8th}... {delay 01} Don't give up now... {full break}Frog: Lady {8th}...{delay 01} Do not give up hope...{full break}
I know that this is terrible, but it's what we're fighting for. We have the power to change it. And we will. {full break}
You have to stay strong, so we can defeat Lavos... {null}
(http://i43.tinypic.com/kpaoj.png) - Triple Post. Found a new font! The VWF is all screwy cause I never changed it, but how is it? It kinda resembles the DS font except larger!I'm going to use my first post to say that I really, really do not like that font. I'm actually working on a nice one as I type. Can't say I'd know how it'd look in CT though.
I really screwed up leveling them, but I actually kinda like this font. It's big and easily legible.Ah, thank you. That was my goal, actually--a larger font than any thus far while still being nice and legible. To be honest, I sort of combined Ryusui's font for the Breath of Fire II retranslation, Gemini's font for the Persona 2: Innocent Sin and Tales of Phantasia PS1 translations, and my own ideas for this. I'm glad you like it; I just hope everyone else does too, and we can finally settle on a font! Heh.
I think this actually made MORE room for us XDXD You're serious? Hooray for no more tiny fonts!
Nice! This one is both huge and spacious, a combination I didn't exactly expect.
From an aesthetic standpoint I liked the other one more, but from a legibility standpoint, this is probably one of the best ones we have seen yet. Well done guys, well done.Why thank you. *bows as his ego expands to the size of a small sun* :lol:
I think the weapon/Shield Icons will remain the same but I like that font.I took this from a minor hack of mine, actually--I didn't intend for the weapon/shield icons to change. I was just too lazy to get the old ones back and paste them in. XD
It takes up more room and looks easy to read I believe.Well, to be honest, this is the 8x8 fixed width font. Y'know, the one you have to use at the naming screen and such because the 8x8 VWF won't support those? I could get a better mockup of how it'd look with the VWF if you'd like.
That new font is officially my favorite, since it's so reminiscent of the original.Uh... It's just a bold version of the CTDS font, actually...
Well done vivify, well done, but will it still give us the amount of space we desire with a new font?Since it's the fixed-width font, I should hope so!
I really hope I didn't put that into one of the VWF patches -____-Yeah, you did, unfortunately. Magus was equipped with Schala's Jeweled Knife. Well, the scythe icon was intact, but it said "Jeweled Knife."
And honestly, the bolded CTDS font is...hm... I don't like it all that much, honestly... I like the other one that gave more space. The spacing also seems a bit odd - the spaces between letters look a little too big. But eh, whatever Justin wants to use.:picardno
