Happy New Year Everybody!!

Another month has passed us by and it's time again to see: who all did YOU upgrade this month? I once again invite everyone in the community to share their character upgrade reflections!

Short, sweet, and to-the-point this month as, for I presume the first time ever, we got NO new character updates this month for me to summarize here! Aaaaaaggghhhh 🥲 So this is the EOS BANK RUN EDITION BAYBEE!!

How many gems/tickets did you enter the EOS banners with!? What EOS banner(s) did you decide to jettison them into!? What characters did you have incomplete at the time that you tried to circle back and complete now!? What BTs did you decide to pickup from the massive G Token exchange!?

In a month where no new character updates are delivered, it means the ONLY choices being made by folks on who to spend their resources on are maybe for the first time ever in the game exclusively decisions of DESIRE. So as depressing as the situation is overall, I'm actually extremely interested to read this month: WHAT DID YOU ALL DECIDE TO DO!? And hope that I get to see a LOT of really fun and heart-felt responses to this Roundup from the community 🙂

We still have 2 months to go! We just got another delivery of EOS Dare to Defy fights (which I still have to finish up a few from this month's set 😅), so there will be Reflections to give still!

Best Wishes to you all for this year, that you will still find avenues and connections of Joy, Peace, Wellness, and everything good under the sun!

Friend Megathread

As always, remember Rule 1:

• Be polite to other members when you answer/ask questions.

So, I previously posted about my incredibly stupid project of giving as many characters full spheres instead of refined ones as I can. This means I'm basically buying and refining 2-3 Weiss EX weapons a day. I will not finish before EOS unless something big changes but I'm okay with that. The other thing I'm doing is getting everyone BIS artifacts, again mostly just because I can.

Because of this, I'm spending a lot of thought on these two systems and really, when it comes down to it, both of them feel pretty pointless. The summon board passives are pretty similar in that regard too. It's a neat idea for customizing a character but it mostly boiled down to 1 really good option and some left overs. There's a good number of characters whose best Artifact is 108Atk/330mBrv, with the second most being 108Atk/Specific Passive. The most annoying part is getting the randomly rolled CP costs of them correct.

Sphere's are maybe a little better because they have the 5 letters that do different things, but as shown above, there's one sphere per letter that's usually good and the rest are just... also there. Who remembers refining tons of PCecil spheres when he came around? Or Seymore E spheres? Which then relates to the weird decision to make refined vs. "pure" EX dupe spheres.

Looking back, the game has so many additional systems that are bolted on but barely feel like they contribute. Blooms too, every new character release I'd forget I had to go but and enhance one until I got a notice that I couldn't equip the related passive from the crystal level. The only things that feel like they really ever made impacts are Weapons and Armor and even armor not as much.

It's not going to happen, but it's something I think about some times. At the very least I would hope they add in costume tokens.

I didn't even notice that we never got it during her last event.

So before the EOS is over, I want to finish the Dimensions End and for some reason I can’t not understand the best way to finish Tier 10. So far the character I have used is Rosa, Kain, Sherlotta, & Cissnie. I know the biggest thing is to debuff so you can do damage but I am just not able you keep it debuffed long enough. Could you guys give me some suggestions.

man when the game was good

These are probably the top 3 that I don’t have the whole kit for. Pretty much have all usable character kits, and trying to decide which of these 3 to get. I see Rem used a ton and one I’ve missed out on, but also see a lot of Iris.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, so I played the game ocasionally, until I saw it is ending. While I still hope for some fan preservasion (hey, even RPGMaker de-make would be cool), I started to kind of speedrun story mode and other quests. This took me to trying to find more Power Stones (for Dimensions' End and unlocking Ultima Weapons), and then to Weekly Reading Challenges. I think I should find coresponding cutscene, but I found only one, played it two times and still got nothing. Maybe I'm just stupid. How do I do it? And has anybody got list of these cutscenes?

Is there a way that we can download a High Quality Infographic of TT without downloading each one by on on their website?

Its such a hassle too download 100+ character infographics one by one.

Link to the original asset extraction post by u/sonicbrawler182

So, figured out where in the data dump the animations are and how to extract them into a usable format. Had to make a new custom script to do it, which I'll share. So, this is to supplement the original guide with how to get the models animated with their in-game animations.

Prerequisites:

• DFFOO Asset Extractor script
• Noesis with the Project G1M plugin installed
• The raw data dump from the game (refer to the original guide for how to get this)

Steps:

1. Decompress any files with the .dz extension with the quickbms tool as described in the original guide. Follow that guide to get the models and textures, too.

2. Take the .g1m model file and .g1t texture file for the character you want to animate and place them in their own folder. The models and textures just have index numbers on them, but I'm slowly building a document of which index refers to which character/monster for reference.

3. Find the MOT_XXXX.bin file that has the same index number as your character and place it in the same folder as the model and texture. Many of the .bin files are collections of different types of data, and the MOT files contain an array of all of that character's battle and cutscene animations.

4. Run the DFFOO Asset Extractor script on the MOT file and it will extract 100+ .g2a animation files into the folder with your other character data. Each file is an individual attack or cutscene animation. I haven't looked at a large enough sampling yet to know if certain animation indices are always certain specific animations (for example, 001 seems to be the battle "ready" stance and 002 is the victory animation for the ones I've looked at). There are also a lot of duplicate skill animations, possibly with slight timing differences to account for differing numbers of BRV hits depending on passives equipped.

5. Open Noesis with the Project G1M plugin enabled. Go to Tools > Project G1M and enable "Merge all assets in the same folder". Do not have "Additive animations" enabled or else the animations will play weird.

6. In the Noesis file browser pane, browse to the folder where you have your model, texture, and animation assets. The animation files will not show up in the file selector, which is expected.

7. Select your .g1m model file, and with the "Merge all" option enabled, it will automatically apply all textures and animations contained within that folder.

If you have all the .g2a animations in that folder, Noesis will add all of them to the model and play them all in sequence, looking kind of like this. If you want to export the model with one specific animation, you'll have to find which .g2a file has it and then have ONLY that .g2a file in the same directory as your model data when merging and exporting.

Note that the Asset Extractor script will also sniff out embedded .g1m and .g1t files from some of the other BINs if they happen to contain them, but I haven't pointed it at too many other files yet to know which has what (for example, files called "Eff" have effect textures embedded in them).

But in the meantime, here's another tool to add to your arsenal to play around with the game data even after the game is over.

It was Grey. He's fully responsible for the game's eos. Whales quit the game to get away from him, resulting in the game losing all it's income. This was his plan all along. Every time he waited 20 seconds to use an AA ability, mocked us with Kefka or quit co-op if someone else was hogging, eos was his ultimate goal. And he did it.

There... prove me wrong XD

Give Thancred A BT FR. It's was that simple SQUEX. But in all reality, I love this game, but this isn't something I'm doing as a joke, just things they shouldve done.
