Oh yes, we will indeed.

It's possible, yeah. But frankly I'd rather do my own re-balancing mod. That said if someone gives me a link to it, I'll at least look it over. If it's simple a port I'll do it anyway.

Oh I did this back in Janurary, I just never bothered to show anyone.
I think my results were a little more nightmare inducing though: http://imgur.com/a/KEp0m

I fixed the readme, just.. redownload it I guess.

It's something I'd like to do, yeah. My biggest concern with that is how to handle Shiva, though I have a good idea of how to do the rest.

Noted. I too prefer the original Odin, so this is definitely going in the to-do list.

I really enjoy his screams of agony myself, but it's a thing I might work on in the future, sure. Wouldn't be that hard, just a little time consuming.

Hence where it comes into play when you get them. Giant Cactuar can be gotten as early as chapter 3 in the game. Vanille and Caius you can only get after you beat the game once and start doing end game stuff.

Yeah, I've tried to balance things around where you get them. Caius is strong, but people actually complained he was too weak when I first released him, so he was brought up to around the level of Etro Lightning. (I actually don't think he's as efficient as she is, honestly. But he is good for AoE and chaining)

The misc monsters are just meant to pad the roster and add variety. Puma I think makes a unique COM, Azure is the only SEN Behemoth currently, Giant Cactuar does a couple of cool things none of the other Cactuar's do, he's not meant to replace anything, as "replacing" things is boring. If there's just a one monster to rule them all type of mindset, there's no point in this mod at all, you know?

I just condensed PBP and XBP down into a single installer, Console Button Prompts (CBP). I also did a small update to the PS3 textures, as I noticed a minor alignment issue with the shoulder buttons in some menus. Anyone using the PS3 button prompts should update, though for everyone else this isn't a necessary update.

Honestly I expected rather simple mods like alot of PC games out there tend to get but a Monster Mod Pack with having enemy monsters on your side and ones you couldn't obtain originally was quite the shocker so thank you and the modders for putting in the effort to make such great releases. Really looking forward to the next one! :)

I'm sort of a fanatic about pets and having additional playable characters, I dunno why. I love that sort of thing. This all originally started just to see how far I could push the game into doing unorthodox things.. but before I knew it I kept finding more and more out about the internals, and slowly began to comprehend the weird nuances of it all. It's funny how far this has come, even I'm a bit amazed to tell you the truth.

Most of the time has been spent with research and real life crap. A lot of bugfixes will be in place that weren't possible until recently, I dunno yet what else though. We have one monster that's more or less done, but I'd like to start on one more because I don't think it'll be that exciting on its own. I have no predictions on a release date, though.. It really depends on how much freetime Scarlet has to test, and how much time I have to work. (And how many problems we run into..!)
