Agree.. Low health would be awesome and might be beneficial. Might get frustrating at some points though.
Could get boring after a while as well. Try to balance it.
Desperation attacks are disabled for the first 23 seconds of the battle. Some boss won't last that long.
The time limit was the major reason this version wasn't going to be final. I thought that the movie would desync on the next version of Snes9x.
But now with the possibility to patch the current version...
I could apply the patch myself. Is there a way to make it compile with Visual Studio .NET ? Or is it a way to install Visual Studio 6 without uninstalling .NET ?
I would like to make some additionnal modification myself : Remap the frame advance key and add an option to show a memory location onscreen.
Since all battle timing are based on a frame counter, I could try to hex edit. The result would be a character staying still for a delay of 0 to 59 frames.
List of upcomming bosses:
Ultros : 3000 HP : 1 desperation attack of Edgar or Sabin + Fire should to it
TunnelArmr : 1300 HP : Consecutives critical hits or 1 desperation attack.
Phamtom Train : Will have to find a Fenix down somewhere
Rizopas : 775 HP critical + Aura bolt
Kefka : 3000 HP depends on who will fight him. Any suggestion ?
Dadaluma : 3270 HP One desperation attack + 1 or 2 normal attacks
Ultros 2: 2550 HP Critical hits or desperation attacks
Number 24 4777 HP Critical hits + desperation
Number 128 3276 HP Critical hits + desperation
Cranes : Joker Doom
Flame Eater : Vanish Doom or Ice rods + Ice 2
Ultros 3 : 6640 HP Don't know if vanish doom works. Else criticals + desperations attacks
Ultros 4 +Chupon : Joker Doom
Air Force : Joker Doom
Atma : Joker Doom
Nerapa : Joker Doom
Tentacles : Don't know.
Dullahan : Vanish doom
Kefka Tower : Vanish Doom and Joker Doom
Final Battle : Don't know

Hmm.. I thought it was revivify that that should be used in order to kill the phantom train?
Can't remember. :)
Either way it will be worth a try.
I think it's Fenix Down. Why couldn't Squaresoft spell in those days? Personally I'd like to see a run of the FF6 proper translation/bug fix but I seem to remember that hacks aren't allowed, so...

Yeah, that would be unusual. maybe there's a treasure box somewhere along the way that's not too far off, i can't remember though.
I remember the first time i did that boss when i was at lower levels as i hated training, and didn't know you could use a Pheonix, sorry Fenix Down.
The way it worked in FF7 against Gi Natak was that the reviving item only had a chance to kill him in one hit, while X-Potion was a sure bet. Not sure if it's the same here.
And seeing that they correctly spelled the esper's name Phoenix, I'm sure it was intentional to name it Fenix Down

Even if a Fenix Down could fail, I'm sure it can be manipulated to always hit. Also, perhaps there is a max name length that prevents "Pheonix Down" from fitting.

Actually, there's a couple of Fenix Downs in the Returners' Hideout. The closest one is probably the one in the treasure chest near the bed that Terra wakes up in.
I would like to have extra subtitles with this movie.
When I was creating the heavily blurred AVI, I was thinking something along the lines of "Locke's introduction", "Edgar's introduction" (scene labels) and some technique explanations ("Vicks and Vedge escape the battle quicker than the girl because they're in the front line. This way, the girl gets all the experience.")

I'll make the graphics for that; entirely in FF6 box style. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference between an in-game box and the one I'd give you.
That is, if you want it and want to go ahead with that plan.

I don't think I can do that with the software I'm currently using. (Bisqwit's way of thinking:) I'd have to create a program that filters the AVI and adds those subtitles graphically to it...

Also, Bisqwit, this is very easy to do with standard video editors such as Adobe Premiere Pro or Ulead Mediastudio Pro. I'll do the graphics if you want me to (painstaking letter copying and pasting in Photoshop from normal dialogue windows). :)
