The reason you DON'T ask James is because he's not set on a release date. He just works as he wants to. |

Here:
-Status effects (more of them)
-able create our own status effects
-Have FF2j's counter system as an option isntead of EXP
-either an option with ful exp, full counters, or an intergration of both
-sound effects
-Mimic ability (even though that could be done through plot-scripting)
-Time (like Dragon Warrior's 4 and 5 or Breath of Fire 1 and 2 time events and such: Day/Night)
-A bigger closet to hide all of my skeletons
Ok, I think that is good. |

You can plotscript time, and sorry, but FF2's level-up system is aboslutely worthless... You get hit enough times and you get more HP. Doesn't make any sense... _________________ Preserve OHR history! Do it for the children! |

You'd probably hate TSSE for that self-same reason, but then again, its adds a POINT to leveling up people the way you'd want them to. Which is to say, I hate FFIV and its level-up, get magic spell at X level system of doing things (which every OHR game pretty much does with a few rare exceptions). But then HOW do you gain power? You'll see.
And the whole point was to show off a level-up system that was "unique". Gots plenty of status effects though. Silence... Poison... Stun... Blind... and their respective antidotes, but I think most everyone knew how to do that when James added the target stat bitset to attacks. |

Yeah, I also use the general "you level up and get a certain spell at a certain level" system, but I don't use that for gathering MP. If you've read the stuff I've said about Magisteral, you'll know how you gain MP in it. _________________

Wait... is TSSE going to be with custom battles? You can't really carry over information like how many times they hit the enemy or some other such thing from normal battles... _________________ Preserve OHR history! Do it for the children! |

:flamedevil:
What i really want is:
1) A way to edit the hero names in the hsi (Wrote a 300 line script to make a hero name input and save it sa a global only to fing i CANT RECALL IT )
2) A way to check what you have in your inventory and be able to use it as a variable, but most of all...3) Be able to use variables in text boxes!!!!!!!!!

You already CAN do number '2' on your list, and 300 lines is NOTHING. Destiny's Cruelty has nearly 3,000 lines of scripting, and there's not much other than a single TOWN so far. To be fair, about 1,000 of that is the introduction. _________________ Preserve OHR history! Do it for the children! |

Actually Aethereal, the one thing about variables (numbers at least) in text boxes may be possible soon. Check on OHR Otaku in the plotscripting section, can't remember which thread, but James said he might add eight number-things (can't remember what he called them either) like the one in the lower-left hand corner, except these can be positioned anywhere on the screen. Just position it where you want in the text box, and BINGO.
DA, yes, yes it would. Two reasons. First, it wouldn't edit the .hsi. What the .hsi is is a compilation of names for things defined in the .rpg. It's unneeded, unless you want to refer to something by name in a script. Once the script has been compiled, the .hsi is good for NOTHING and doesn't need to be distributed along with the .rpg. The script would have to edit the .rpg file to record the name. That would cause problems because if someone wanted save files, it would have to overwrite the defined name, meaning none of it would be remembered except the last one. You could say you don't want any save files, but that's a bad idea, and if you only wanted one James would have to change things in the way the game saves. Finally, even with movable on-screen variables (if they are implemented), you can't make it display names in text boxes, so it would be pointless to change the name anyway, unless you are only going to see on the status screens and in battle. Tidus' changeable name in FFX? Pointless.
EDIT: Here's the thing on Otaku:

James said they would be called text registers. _________________ Preserve OHR history! Do it for the children! |

Okay, a couple of these are others' ideas, but still need to be mentioned:
A graphics exporter .(For things like sequels and OHR Battle)
Faces in the textboxes.
A built-in music composer with export capabilities. |

Uh... for the music thing, there's Notate. It isn't built in, but it's not incredibly difficult to open Import and double-click on the program. I prefer Noteworthy Composer, all the same... _________________ Preserve OHR history! Do it for the children! |

Someone might have said some of these but:
A summon system
A way to increase a hero's EXP
Midis instead of BAM ( I know won't happen)
The ability to draw what parts of an overhead tile you want overhead |
