... Okay, seriously, this is what happens when you take harmless cameos too far. If you're so fixated on the fact that all Square games are intertwined, explain what in blazes Sephiroth, Cloud and the others were doing in a freaking wrestling game! Kingdom Hearts is an alternate timeline. FF7 Cloud is NOT KH Cloud. FF8 Squall is NOT KH Leon. Yes, their stories have drawn on the originals, but this is to keep their personalities as close as possible to the originals we know and love. Goddammit, Aerith DIES, man! I haven't found it yet, but I'm doubting that there's any 'omnipotent evil entity' involved besides those we've already encountered... Too great, too convienient. Nomura goes out on a limb to write us great stories that keep us playing the game until the very end. Yet, you seem to expect him to pull the same plot twist twice? If possession comes into play in BBS, trust me, it won't play a part of such an epic scale as this. Also, please. Xehanort's Heartless has the ability to possess those who accept him. That's a fact. And I really don't think Nomura would want anyone to go through the whole "Welp, he wasn't really who he said he was, he just went around tellin' everybody he was." crap again. It would defeat the whole purpose of making this game. Responding differently to its host? What do you think this 'entity' is exactly, a symbiote from Spider-Man? I'm willing to differ in saying that it isn't the entity that's responding differently, it's the host manipulating it differently. Notice I'm implying control over it? Want to know why? Because I believe that this 'entity' you keep referring to is simply 'Darkness', that omnipresent source of power that fuels most villains and Riku. At this point, however, I'm willing to bet that the only people who have anything to do with the current storyline are Ven and the Dark Soldier. Possibly Aqua, seeing as they're so reluctant to release any information on her... But I do believe that's for other reasons not pertaining to Birth By Sleep specifically, so I won't get into them.
Oh god. That chapter was awesome. Tron catching Ansem watching who-knows-what, Rikunort jokes, the works. ._. The only thing I missed though was Roxas's Final Mix powahs. o: Where are the lasers and the Multi-Pearl attack?
... Sadly, I'm going to have to ignore your references to the FF games. It has been said, time and again, that KH=/=FF. There are many similarities, yes, but such similarities are irrelevant, and are traits shared by different games created by the same company... I am not sure where... but I seem to remember reading that Nomura stated that he is actually a person, seperate from Master Xehanort... and that the effect where he appears to seperate himself from Master Xehanort was solely for dramatic purposes... Alas, not being able to completely remember said source, I do not wish to rely on it heavily... I mention it en passe in the hopes that you might have read it also... Patience... Do remember that Nomura once referred to BBS as a 'new series'. I think it's a bit too early to state exactly when BBS will end just yet. Also, I still can't see why everyone wants Terra to be possessed so badly... Another possession dilemna would be hazardous for Nomura to pull, seeing as he's used it in the Kingdom Hearts timeline already, and also attributed it to Xehanort's Heartless. I pose to you a question, though. Yes, it it true that the Dark Soldier wears clothes which are very similar to Dark Riku's... There seems to be some color swapping going on. Where Dark Riku had blue, Dark Soldier has red, and vice versa. Also, the skirt-thing is white on Riku, and black on the Dark Soldier. Why such subtle changes? What do they reflect?
... My bad, a misrecollection on my part, it wasn't stated. It was implied. Read this - <.< Why speak to the person in front of you in the third person? Master Xehanort's obviously doing it to taunt Terra, but Terra has no reason to do so... unless of course, there's another Xehanort. No. The "Dark Soldier" CANNOT be Terra, seeing as Master Xehanort is apparently asking Terra to defeat him. Terra's brother, maybe? It'd explain the 'resemblances' between Terra and Xehanort, wouldn't it? Also, the fact that Terra and the Dark Soldier have minimal contact with each other does not prove that Terra is indeed the Dark Soldier. The mere fact that Terra is seen running toward both the Dark Soldier and Master Xehanort in the beginning of the video is proof enough that they exist as two different entities. However, please look at this picture - http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/8841/snapshot20080221004242kr4.jpg I do hope that is enough to clear the delusion you hold that the Dark Soldier and Terra are the same person... My apologies. The lighting led me to believe otherwise... haha, I actually just finished watching the Birth By Sleep video in slow motion. The whites of his eyes do indeed remain white. Reminds me a bit of Saix actually... Also, digging up that old article made me notice something... specfically... this - Funny, I could have sworn Mickey, Riku, Master Xehanort and the Dark Soldier were all wielding keyblades. Does he somehow feel that a denizen of the dark doesn't have the right to wield a keyblade because of his darkness? This guy reminds me of Ansem the Wise. For more than one reason. *Scratches head* Bah, now it seems like I'm trying to prove Master Xehanort is Ansem the Wise. *shudders* <_< Which would make him effectively "another Xehanort". This shoots down my theory... how? Also, for future reference, please note the importance Nomura placed on the words "Another" and "No Heart" when referring to Xehanort's name. Anywho, that's all from me for now... ^_^ Be sure to try to shoot me down again.
._. Changing models in KH1 is a freaking nightmare... I don't think we'll be attempting that again anytime soon...
You will, trust me, you will. Swapping MSET's would achieve a similar effect, provided you change the moveset also.
If, of course, we can find said model. o.O And model modding stops the models from disappearing. They just... don't hit. XD
Sorry if I came off as rude or anything, but I've heard this theory waaay too many times already. But, I'll make my comments on that later. However, as to the point I was making towards the video, I specifically said - You said you'd done so... But, I'm confused that you don't see my point. Terra activates a power that, somehow, inverts the colors of his eyes. It doesn't just make them yellow. It also makes the whites black. He does this, by himself, which means Master Xehanort had nothing to do with it. <.< Which would, kinda make the whole point of the "OMG WHEN U INVERT HIS COLORS HE LOOKS LIEK XEMNAS" argument... moot. Anyway, in the most recent trailer which was again documented and not leaked, Master Xehanort is quoted as to have stated that there is "Another Xehanort". He told this to Terra. Which means, our Xehanort is already existing at the time of BBS, further proven by flashbacks and Ansem Reports. Do you see where I'm going with this? Terra cannot become Xehanort, if Xehanort already exists. Also, food for thought. Why not take a look into why Nomura would think of hiding the Dark Soldier's face behind a mask, and, when it gets knocked off, quickly cut the scene? Could it be a spoiler of some sort? But, that can't be right, can it? I mean, we know almost nothing about the whole BBS story. So why...? Because it is a spoiler. It is a character we have seen many times, and is one of the main focuses of BBS, alongside Ven. He. Is. XEHANORT!!!
Apparently, both.
Eh... My capture card ran me about $400 in my munnies. So that'd be about $60 US. Minus the price increase that normally goes on, I'd say it actually cost around $45 US or so... =P As an added bonus, you'll get to record cable and stuff too~! Not to mention play your PS2 via PC. <.< But yeah, capture card is definitely the easiest way to do it. Just hit record, and you're good to go. No importing, nothing.
Fix'd. 42 is Limit Form, which doesn't exist in this version. =S
Yet again, this chapter is full of win in epic proportions... I can't wait to see some of the crazy stuff Xaldin's gonna do. XDDD
<.< Go look at what Terra did near the end of Birth By Sleep, right after he pulled of his helmet. And take your inverted pictures with you. Now. All of you. *Smash attacks you with a Home-Run Bat.* No. Just, no.
This fic is awesome. Hell, I ventured out of the safety of the Code Vault to read it. Keep it up. XDDD

Moved. Won't be closed til he posts what he decides to do.
Porting a code is essentially re-hacking a code for a different game of the same name. It is beyond the scope of maxconvert to do any such thing.
... You can't uses multiple encryption types together. Do them all in raw.
There are extra values for FM, not to mention that the offsets are a bit different. When I get around to porting it to FM, I'll let ya know.
=| The 'freezing when you press start' is a side effect of the code. I know not of any remedies for it. If your gameshark can accept RAW codes, then you shouldn't be using the mastercode from the GS website. Encrytion adds a bit of unnecessary hassle to cheating via PS2. Use a decrypted on from codejunkies instead.
