Wow. Finally done. Four months almost to the day after I started, and here it is, Spira: Besaid, the RPG map. I don't have a lot to say about it, although I'll certainly be answering a lot of questions about "how to do" such and such. For now, I'll just leave you with a download link and these three tips:

Read the Readme. It's an entire guide to how the map is played, and it covers bugs, the save function, leveling, credits, and some other stuff. Read it read it read it read it. (Please note that skinning credits were left out of the readme: MasterSaitek009 was responsible for the Al Bhed skin and RepSharpshooter was responsible for the Cid skin.)

Save often. Just like any RPG, you never know when you might die (or in this case, cause an unexpected crash due to a bug specific to the summon [mentioned in the readme] )

READ THE INGAME DIALOGUES. So important. They tell you what to do.

Enjoy!

Edit: If you've downloaded this already, make sure you download and install the localization fix. (Localization Fix Download) It'll make sure there are no localization issues in non-English versions.

Note that the following download has fixed localizations, if you're downloading this now for the first time, you don't need the localize fix.

Ack. I just realized some localization changes that I made from the beta to the release version weren't updated for languages other than English. I'll fix the main version later today as well as release a quickfix for everyone that's already downloaded it.

(Those of you with other-than-English versions may see slightly different, although no more or less relevant, dialogue. The dialogue for one sidequest will be wrong. Additionally, some of the maphints may be unlocalized. This'll all be fixed with a hotfix later this afternoon.)

Localization Fix:
http://files.filefront.com/FFXHotfixrar ... einfo.html

Unzip and move the core.lvl and mission.lvl to your "GameData\addon\FFX\data\_LVL_PC" folder. They will overwrite the current core.lvl and mission.lvl. That should fix any problems with localization that might have been present in other-than-English versions.

This is... fantastic

I don't believe that has anything to do with the game or where you are in it. For whatever reason, with no obvious cause (although I would imagine it's related to the water), if you're around the back (or especially on top) of the temple the game may CTD. I would recommend if you get a CTD for any reason, to lower your graphical settings and continue play.

I checked it out; it's because the Phantom Lancer is a reskin of Kimahri - the same character you see in both this map and in Final Fantasy.

ITS OUT!
dl right now

EDIT: what must i do when i approach this ball in the sand, i pressed "use" there was unit select screen i pressed "spawn" and had the same objective as before

Hallelujah!

It's a miracle!

What in the world am i typing this for, I should be playing this aweso... (closes browser)

this map PWNS! the only problem is the monsters were so hard to beat that i started using pizzadox with 1 hit kill and insta-leveling But than when i got to the investigate the boat part i accidentally "destroyed" the boat and i was stuck just roaming around w/o a mission. O well this map clearly shows u spent a lot of time on it, i like the fact that u can like talk to the people.

Even if you destroy the boat you can still proceed. Just investigate the area around the boat. You'll find something.
