Dead Content Phantasy Star IV:A Retelling (Demo now avaliable!)

Dead content awaiting restoration.
I loved Phantasy Star IV for the Sega. I love you for this... I am downloading it right now. I wanna see this finished. This is amazing.
 
Er...thanks. :grin:
I'm busy uploading some updated screens right now,mainly the main menu layout and
the inventory screen.The link for the updated demo can be found at the bottom of the page.
And please,please report if there are any bugs.It's hard going it alone. :grin:

Enjoy! :biggrin:
 
Well i replayed the demo and just discovered something about equipping the steel sword.

I got this error.

Unable to find file Graphics/Animations/Sword 6

(And this is from the Steel Sword Weapon) I also notice this included the Titanium Sword and i would'nt be surprised with other weapons.

Though if i recall have you got all the spells added in the game cause i know the Tsu, Githu, Nathu should be in ther since i recall Chaz had those techs.
 
I deliberately left out the Tsu techniques because of the incombatibility with the battle
system.In order for those techs to work,I have to add three new lines to Chaz's battle
sprite sheet,and that hasn't been implemented yet.Hopefully,in the full version of the game,
I'll have it out. :biggrin:
As for that missing animation,here's the image.You'll have to resize it in a graphics
editing program though.The dimensions are 960 by 768.

Hope that solves it.Sorry for all the bugs.It's not easy being the only tester. :sad:
 
Ah alright oh and i found another missing graphic sheet. (At the Bio Plant)

Unable to find Graphics/Animations/Thunder1 From the monster Gicefulge

And uploading screens of some more map errors.

(Basically ive notice part of the default RTP tree there i really think you might need some help with the mapping.)

PS4RetellingMappingErrors2.png

(Noticing the small pine trees on the wall they really should be one tile away from the wall.)

(Look real closely notice parts of the shadow of the pinetrees are cut off.)

PS4RetellingMappingErrors8.png

(I think this is obvious




PS4RetellingMappingErrors4.png

(The House across from the inn there's something not right with the roof there.)


PS4RetellingMappingErrors5.png
(The fences are'nt really completed since they're missing either a top, bottom, or the side is'nt completely done.)

PS4RetellingMappingErrors6.png
(Basically can't get through to the chest.) Be much better to remove the wall since that's causing the player to not be able to access.

(Same Probelm Here)

Though this game is great there's still a lot of things needing to be fixed.

Just discovered another error

Unable to find file Audio/BGM/Town 4 (Town near Zio Fort)
 
Yeah,some of my earlier maps suck. :haha: Anyway,thanks for pointing those errors out.
Here's the missing graphic for Thunder1.

This image needs to be resized to 960 by 576 for it to work properly in the game.I'll try and work
on the Mile maps.But then again,the 'Farm Village' tileset is one of the hardest to work with. :smile:
 
I might be able to help with the farm tileset since i took me a while to figure out how to use it effectively for buildings like that.

Here's an example from my game project

(Oh and have you tested Hahn Rimit tech? Cause i do notice that for some reason it heals the enemies but the sleep spell works.)

PS4Error2.png

Also Missing Animation File for Rimpa
Unable to find Graphics/Animations/Heal4
 
Hehe,this is becoming hilarious.Guess I was so desperate to cut out on file size that I deleted a bunch of animations I 'thought' weren't necessary to the game.Anyway,here's the missing pic.
Needs to be resized to 960 by 960 pixels.

You came out with multiple actors in BirthValley?!That never happned when I playtested it...Hmm.That's several more bugs that need to be sorted,then. :cry: Let me guess.Did this bug
happen before you entered BirthValley and got Rika,or...afterwards.Because I don't get multiple actors after I get Rika,so it must've have occured before you got her...Did you backtrack?After you entered the cave,I mean,to go and rescue Holt.Please let me know.
 
It happened after the event at birth valley which seed self destructed. which i enter the town and saw this bug. Though i finished the demo after beating juza since the demo ends after that.
 
OK as a Phantasy Star fan I'm very excited to play this. However I have a problem. After the intro ends, Alys just stands there. I can't move or do anything.
