I tried to find it again later but the chat window had refreshed.

A splash screen, yeah. I have to think of a title for the hack, then...

I'm back on for tonight people! I know I only took a week off but it feels like its been a month since I streamed. I miss it!

Contrary to the calendar, we are not working on Primal Ifrit tonight, but rather doing our first entry into the hacking beginner series where we will be talking about hacking utilities for Final Fantasy VI and give some demonstrations. This is how just about everybody got into hacking this game (myself included)... so this will be great for anyone looking to break into hacking or are hoping to understand a few of the tools better that you have so far left unexplored.

Can't wait!

Awesome, just what I need. I guess the universe has been conspiring in my favor lately.

Is the countdown still accurate? Don't wanna miss this one!

[B-Run]

Yes! it is... here's a repost for the link if anyone missed it elsewhere.

Crossover Crisis tonight guys!

I'm super excited to play Kuga's custom hack and see what things have been updated and change. Graphical changes are one of the biggest ways to change game-feel, and spending time with RotDS has got me excited to experience FF6 from fresh perspectives. So come out and support Kuga on-stream. Hopefully we'll get a sneak peak at where the hack is headed directly from the creators mouth.

...and as always, this stream is dedicated to Q&A so if you are stuck with a hack or need some ASM advice let me know in chat, I'd love to help!

See you all there. Happy Hacking!

My heart is beating too hard! I just can't wait!!

So we are getting into the real deal this week people. Children of Vector is back in full swing. My plan for this week is to quickly go over some changes I've made this week including:

• Vargas complete sprite sheet
  
• secondary sprites/palettes for using colors beyond the first 12
  
• CoV splash screen!
  
• Monster AI Upgrade
  

After touching on those, and answering any questions people might have, here are the things I intend to actually do during the stream:

• Expanding music data and music data relocation
  
• importing a new song from .bin files
  
• Differentiating Blundra weapon cast proc rate from normal weapon cast
  
• Lorial's Trance; targetting changes
  

I likely won't get to all of these, but those are the next items on the docket... so that's what we're going to do. I am really hyped about the project and I can't wait to dive into it this Thursday with you all.

Also, I have a special announcement to make regarding development that will make things much easier for me.


Happy Hacking!
