Randomizer

  • The is a randomizer for the Trial Mode in Final Fantasy XII TZA
  • Start by loading the provided save file, which takes you to The Lightworks, which serves as your home base for the player.
  • At any time you may teleport to the Lightworks by holding F11. You can teleport to Trial 1 by holding F1. (This changes the game speed by default, so consider remapping this button)
  • Each character starts at level 1 with 300 LP.
  • The party also starts with 3000 gil, which you may spend at the vendor at the bottom of the stairs.
  • When entering the trials, monsters now give XP.
  • Each chest in the trials are AP items. Upon opening the chest, you'll receive an item called "Trial X Chest Y"
  • Completing trials and moving onto the next now heals the party to full HP and removes all status conditions, but does not restore MP or mist.
  • The LUA script parses your inventory to find these items and sends the location check to the server.
  • When you receive an item (either from a location check you sent or from another player) you will see that you receive the item plus an AP Voucher. This helps the LUA script know which items you have and haven't received from the client. DO NOT SELL THESE.
  • See how far you can get in the trials! When you party gets low, teleport back to the Lightworks by holding F11 before you wipe and get a Game Over screen. This allows you to heal, modify your licenses, gambits, party makeup, and save.
