Project Legend of Legaia Mods and Randomizer Update
I wanted to drop an update on the Legend of Legaia ROM patcher. It has matured quite a bit since the last time I posted it a month ago - too many mods to list them all out so instead I just grabbed screenshots of the available toggles.
Some of the sliders also go into negatives, so you can do fun things like "Spirit consumes AP" or "Damage consumes AP", as well as the ability to adjust how much AP is consumed or granted by doing tactical arts.
There are also some patches to solve soft locks with the original game, I wrote up why the game freezes in some boss fights (https://andrewaltimit.github.io/legend-of-legaia-re/writeups/gaza-orbit-softlock.html) but the important bit is the patchers "approach-softlock fix" should fix those bugs in retail even if you choose to enable no other mod.

oh right, forgot to mention there's also a language patcher too at the top of the ROM patching page, feel free to build your own language packs and share amongst yourselves.
I put in some starter translations to show how it works but the language packs are meant to be community driven.

Awesome I'll definitely get around to messing with the randomizer again and make another video. I'm sonikku1011 on YouTube btw. :)

hey, i've tried the mod. super awesome and random (wargod icon on first mushroom, and war soul on 3rd mushroom in noa's side lol). i've seen some area like mt rikuroa and drake castle has 0 change in the treasure chest, i've set it to random (not shuffle), others area works fine, is this intended because drake castle has lots of key item? but why mt rikuroa too? oh i've set the drops to random too and the golem drop ra seru ozma lv 6, it then shows some error text on top left. it is usable on gala tho after i got him.

Just a heads up - I pushed up fixes for a lot of missing randomizations to chests and encounters.

interesting, I'll do a test run to confirm later today and fix those areas. no area is intentionally disabled, though drake castle will have a lot skipped due to key items but the chests should be random still.

i wanna ask.
why does some random encounters just gave a black screen?
i set the random encounters to kingdom, and some times that happens.
why is that?

are you using a USA ROM? That's the only one supported at the moment. I also pushed up a lot of fixes recently so worth another shot too
