About this mod
This will remove the smiley-face that appears in speech bubbles. Two alternatives could be chosen: a blank speech bubble, and a bubble with three dots.
This is compatible with the newest version of the game from Steam, which is from 2020-04-24.

Then, you will need to find the directory where Steam installed the game, which probably is here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE\
And you will need to create a set of directories, like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE\mods\deploy\ff12data\ps2data\image\ff12\myoshiok\us\packfiles\tex2pack_ys.bin.dir\
Inside of that final directory called "tex2pack_ys.bin.dir", you must place one of the files included in this mod.
These two files are included:
- section_003 - BlankBubble.tm2
- section_003 - ThreeDots.tm2
If you want the speech bubbles to be blank, place the file called "section_003 - BlankBubble.tm2" in the "tex2pack_ys.bin.dir" directory, and rename it to just "section_003.tm2".
If you want the speech bubbles to have three dots, place the file called "section_003 - ThreeDots.tm2" in the "tex2pack_ys.bin.dir" directory, and rename it to just "section_003.tm2".
Version 1.01:
This version just smoothened some sharp edges. The difference is hard to notice.
Version 1.02:
I noticed that one smiley-face still appeared during the beginning of the game. To remove it, another file must be added.
Two versions are available:
- naf_a01 - BlankBubble.ebp
- naf_a01 - ThreeDots.ebp
After you've chosen whether you want to have a blank speech bubble, or a bubble with three dots, you must rename it to just "naf_a01.ebp", and create this set of folders, and place it there:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE\mods\deploy\ff12data\ps2data\plan_master\us\plan_map\naf_a\naf_a01\global\
