You've impressed me again.  Personally, I'm fine with the font, it helps the game look like it's from the 8-bit age (unless people beg me to change it).  My most pressing concern is dialog memory.  I can think of 2 things that would help:
1: A sort of new-line character that tells the text to move to the next line.  This way I can tell text to wrap to the next line without having to write hyphens and padding spaces into the script. 
FYI, each line can hold 19 chars, but a hanzi's right side can reach to the 20th spot. 
FYI, each text string ends with 0D0A ("\\r\\n"), so obviously I can't use those as return characters. 
2: A way to use 1 or 2 bytes to reference names or words from a word bank.  This alone could do wonders. 
Solve either of these and you get a name on the title screen. 

Caveat: There are times when the game gives you 2 choices in the text box (e.g. at an inn).  I have to make the top line 16 chars long in this case. 
In battle mode when a command is selected it displays over the person's max HP.  It would be nice if it would display right, or not at all. 

I can definitely change "Atk " to "Fight" with improvised tiles if you'd like.  It's impossible to make "Attack" look good in that space.

I bet DTE would be really easy to hack in there, seeing as the game is basically designed to draw plot 4x4 tile squares into VRAM for its text drawing.

Or maybe just change it to 4 lines of text with autowordwrap and dictionary compression?

I'm just wondering where we could find a free RAM block to store a line of text?  Maybe the stack top?

Welcome to my BLOG : http://hi.baidu.com/maxzhou88/

I very like FF7 game. http://hi.baidu.com/maxzhou88/blog/item/26b64b43ab21b91573f05df0.html

I don't think I'm going to get involved in a graphics patch.  The memory is retarded in how it has the same tilesets appear 20 times throughout the ROM.  Annoyance.  I might do some kind of battle improvement, for my own sake at least.  Even though most of the text is translated, I'm not so close to being finished.  I have to study and alter the text engine before I can make this patch become what it's supposed to be.  I have much to learn, and I simply haven't had so much time for that lately. 

He said he's not interested. Some other people are though. Best case scenario for everyone asking is to wait until the translation is finished and someone else might release secondary patches that pretty the game up. Maybe someone will change the music even. Translation comes first.  :thumbsup:

I'm incredibly excited for this, you are the man of year. YOU CAN DO IT!!! /waterboy

I'm gonna have to try this out right now! Thanks Lindblum, I really appreciate it!  :thumbsup:

My life finally has meaning

I believe I might have figured out what may be screwing up the animated BGs.  The 6th Dialog block starts at 0x79011. 
In the original file it ends at 0x7EF7C.  With my patch, since English eats more script space, it ends at 0x7FF31. 
The limit is the start of a graphics block at 0x7FFD0. 
It turns out there was a block hiding from 0x7F110-0x7F724.  This is bad, but the consequences have been mercifully minor. 
I could move some text to the empty space after the block, but even ignoring it I am tight on space (and there are still a few lines left to translate there). 
Should I find myself unable to compress the text to these constraints, I may have to get greedy and corrupt that block. 

About the 4 armor categories, the original translates to Helmet/Armor/Shinguards/Cape.  Since this is unfaithful to the PSX game, I have no need to be faithful to this. 
I settled for translating it to Helmet/Armor/Shinguards/Gauntlet (with icons), since Gauntlets best substitute for Bangles from the PSX game.  I'll probably change it around to Helmet/Armor/Gauntlet/Cape in light of new information on Plate/Mail/Leather/Cloth classes. 

Though it pains me to give up the 16x16 icons, I plan to trade them in for the classic 8x8 icons, which will allow me to fit one more letter into Weapon/Armor/Spell names.
