This is beyond amazing! Great work!!

Hey so.....REALLY curious how you went about replacing the music. Everything I and a couple others have tried has come up not working. There's actually a modding Discord now as well as an official public mod but it was just aa bit of hex editing. Funt fact though, you don't actually need to keep everything unpacked to run nods -- UE4 lets you do it natively if you just make your own pak file with a _p at the end of the file name and put it in the pak dir (or a subdir). Check out the subreddit for more info.Even if you don't join the Discord would LOVE to hear how the music replacement was done.

Oh, sorry, the music is the only thing not actually modded. I just had the background music muted when I recorded and then added the music later when I rendered the video. Really cool that there's a modding Discord though, can I get an invite link?

[@golbargs]

Incredible job, thanks for the ressources and explanations

[@batterdays3775]

holy shit the slugcat god is at it again

[@RestlessHarp]

That's great!! 😄

[@unovarydrake]

This is super sick, have you done any other extensive modding work on the game outside of this fight?

[@AndrewFMs]

Thanks! Making this fight was my first experiment with modding the game, I hadn't made any Octopath mods before this. As far as I'm aware, actually, I think this might be the first mod anyone has made for the game.

[@unovarydrake]

@@AndrewFMs As far as the community knows you're correct, no one else has made any mods for this game. I would be really curious as to how you went about making this mod and what we could learn from this

[@ieattables]

​@@AndrewFMs I've seen other proof of concept type mods, editing text and pointers and stuff. But this is definitely way more extensive than anything I've seen yet.

[@AndrewFMs]

@@unovarydrake I made this write-up that goes through a summary of some of how I went about making this: eggzero.serv.pink/octopath/OctopathMod.html
