didn't said author also have a few other documents he had written years ago and found on a backup cd that he was looking for people to proof a year or so ago that he still has yet to release?
The document about relative searching is the only one currently useful enough to be released. I should probably already release it but I really want to find an example for the last section. On the other hand, I'm probably the only motherfucker on the planet who uses relative searching to find graphics, so it's probably not worth the wait.
The other article, which documents an entire ROM hacking project from the selection of the game to the actual patch release, has a very nice introduction and some nice pictorial explanations of making a table file, then stops, so it's not terribly useful at the moment. I do look at it every couple of weeks and realize just how useful it could be.
I also have a couple of translation projects that are ready for release, though they're already all available in English in one form or another, so nothing really major. I'm probably going to end up saying fuck the various CMSes I've been trying to install, so as to build a site, and just code the entire thing by hand.

If all of us announced things we started but would never come across the means to finish, we’d all be laughingstocks. Naturally an unfinished endeavor here and there isn’t so bad.
I blame my unproductivity on the fact that there isn't a single decent CMS on the entire Internet. By that, I mean that every single CMS ever coded works exactly the opposite of how I believe a CMS should work, yet I've been too lazy to code my own. I wrote one that worked how I wanted, once, but it was in Perl and coded for a specific site. I'm about to go on a rant, though, and a thread about moving sprites in FFIV probably isn't the proper place for a discussion on the merits of existing CMS.
