8-Bit FFXI

This looks very cool! If you need an Elvaan Blu feel free to use my name.

asking this for trin, doesnt seem to be logging on here much last couple days. the areas with no music, (dunes, gusgen, etc) should be left musicless? or what i was thinking is a track for the musicless outdoor areas and a different one for the musicless dungeon areas, which would fit?

Lol this does look amazing.


You prob have drk's and humes, but if you need a drk hume for either a character or want a little quest / story line please feel free to use my name!

I think Chrono was targeted because of how well it was done. Arguably if done right it would have blown their original game away.

Honestly there have been hundreds of terrible fan games for RPG Maker(Mostly FF7 Sequels/"Remakes"). I don't recall S/E sending a C&D to any of them.

Note: Not saying OP's game will be terrible (It's a real nice idea and I look forward to playing it.). I just don't think Square would bother messing with something made on RPG Maker as long as it isn't sold for profit, or isn't a clone of a game already made in regards to game play.

Also if you need an extra Hume WAR or DRG let me know. I'd love to be a GAXE Weilding DRG :P

If it's not too much effort you could use a wyvern helm instead of the normal AF helmet. (NPC's don't make sense, just look at Dynamis Hydracorps lol)

May I ask, which platform are you making it for?

I understand that Game Maker has a HTML5 version they changed their ***on me and now they have "export modules" which intrigues me as that means it should be possible to port any version, which means cross-platform support.

However the cheapest way to get HTML5 is the Pro edition+ the HTML5 export module, $99 each, or the Master edition which is $499...

when it's finished, perhaps we could start a donation pool lol.

This will be starting on the PC, and has some future possibilities, i could possibly convert it to "Gameboy" frmat so it could be played Via Emulators on Pads or Phones, and that is if i cant take it straight to phones. I will see what i can do.

I hope you don't mean the actual gameboy, wouldn't be able to handle the level of your game (I know you say it's 8bit, but you're actually ranging from 8-32 in colors) maybe GBA.

HTML5 would probably be your best bet, cross-platform wise, imo.

I just want to be the Drk in this awesome little world.

It would be converted to either GBA or PS1. and put on a build in emulator and put on a phone, it will take a lot of work and definantly will be way down the line, so dont expect it on a phone for a while. PC only for now

I bet we all know what the Taru RDM should be named...

And who would that be? o.O

great work men!!! looks great... i would play it!

Avesta should be a Boss not a playable character.

Avesta would be too OP as a boss or as a PC. Maybe have him be an NPC that takes Maat's place =P

Havent heard / seen any new news on this topic in a while! is trinity ok?
or is this game being followed on another forum post / website???

Nah replace AV with Avesta and have them unkillable to keep people trying.

Thank you!

wow this look so nice. been reading the whole thread. and cant wait to try this out.. i see ppl leave names for jobs ^^ feel free to use me for an Elvaan drg :p would be a honor

Hume DRK to be specific~

You should add Sixo or Damarius from Bismarck :x

Hope this project is still doing well in process so excited to hear and see more!

Wow this looks cool!

Man I just ran across this as well. I don't know how many attempts I made at recreating the FFXI world in RPGMaker. I suck at coding though so I can only get so far before getting frustrated. Which version is most current and how do I get it?

But yeah, looks amazing. I hope it comes to fruition soon!

(Of course throwing my character in the hat. Hume F - Dinah - Rune Fencer of course.)

^ This. I haven't seen much activity as of late on the FB page though.

I haven't seen anything posted on this in a while on here nor the Facebook Page. Last I heard he was having trouble with spells freezing I believe. Hope this is still in the works!

Galka PLD please! :)

Fantastic job! I'm very excited about this!

so did he just stop on this project?

I hope not. It seems that a wall might have been approached and some coding crashed. Would be nice to know either way.

It's probably safe to assume yes until told otherwise. People have posted in this thread and on the FB and no word at all weather he got stuck or quit or anything. Last post just said he was having freezing issues with spells and that was it.
