CloseI was a few hours into another playthrough of my copy of FFXII, after having just gotten some component cables so I could more properly appreciate the game - when I really started to get upset that I couldn't play the IZJS version. So, I had some extra time tonight and really poured into how I could do so.
I have a terrible computer that can only emulate it at 80% speed at the best of times. I definitely can't see myself being able to play the steam version once it inevitably comes out. (We all know it will, eventually)
I've got two kids now, so I can't really afford any big purchases (or small purchases for that matter), and I am not really a fan of the PS4 as a whole.
I'd tried before to get Mcboot running, but I always seemed to have the wrong equipment. I have a gameshark, but it only lets you load saves from the disc itself and not from a usb...
I didn't have 007 - agent under fire - but I did have MGS 3 - Snake Eater, and after a few missteps, I finally got it to load and install.
And the first thing I ran to do once it worked was burn the IZJS (twice, because I forgot to patch it the first time...) and load it up!
Honestly, IZJS is all I ever wanted mcBoot for. I always have terribad computers, so I could never emulate it. But, I've not only gotten component cables for the PS2, but now I can load it up on the official hardware! So Happy. Just wanted to get out there and say that.
I can't wait to enjoy it the way it was meant to be played.

The worst part was deciding what class to make Vaan. I almost made him a Red Mage or Machinist, but I went for Black Mage.
Let's see...
Penelo - Machinist - chicks with guns aww yeah
Balthier - Breaker
Fran - Monk
Ashe - White Mage
Basch - Time Mage
I just want to kinda flip the table on this playthrough and see what shakes up.

Man... Good luck :D
I made the mistake of diving into the IZJS board on GFAQs, read various discussions on stats and freaking character animations with weapons and simply cannot look at certain Jobs the same, lmao :D
Not that it matters that much anyway. You should just play with whatever Jobs and combinations you like!
There is a freaking spreadsheet out there with comparisons...

The one thing I do know is that Balthier is actually the worst person to give guns to - and same with bows for Fran - because they have longer unique animations for their use.

Yeah. Not that it stopped me during my non-IZJS playthrough :D
I used their default weapon type until late game when it became apparent greatswords are the way to go, haha.

The game's not really hard enough to worry about the animations too much, in my opinion.
I want to play IZJS for the retooling of progression (way earlier gambits, and you can get Holy BEFORE Pharos....), but without the job system. I feel like it was a wasted opportunity since a lot of the classes don't make sense. When it gets a remaster for PC, I'll probably just map out each character myself on paper. I went pretty traditional on my first run (Thief Vaan (also 10 levels under everybody else, whoops), White/Green Mage Penelo, Knight Ashe, Berserker Basch, Black Mage Fran, Spearboy/Red Mage Balthier), so I'll probably try something a bit different and unexpected, like thief basch or hand grenade ashe.
does it bother anybody else that fran/vaan rhyme and basch/ashe almost rhyme, but penelo/fran don't? i want a remake of ff12 where penelo is actually a nu mou or bangaa. what i'm saying is that i want deltree to remake ff12

I really wanted my guys this time around to look like a bunch of clumsy oafs just kinda wandering around the plot, so I made everyone kinda off type.
I'm trying to make this playthrough feel like a fresh new game and I'm just not looking anything up. It's been so long since I played that it won't really be a problem, but I'll get to discover the game all over again, basically.
Kinda like playing an Earthbound Reshuffled rom.

all i want in life is a roguelike made with the ff12 tiles and engine. i would learn how to animate if i meant i could add in playable demihuman races, too.... sorry, you talking about mods made me think of that =P
i want a mod that puts basch in a white mage gown

Hahaha, you know, that was very much part of my motivation when I started making my roguelike Hack Saga.
I tried to make it very moddable too, where all the element types and ranges were just in a text file and loaded up on startup.
Actually, when I filled out a survey for FFXII Zodiac Age, the only thing I asked for them to add were little unlockable outfits for everyone - basically for this and similar reasons.
