Dream World IX 1.0.0b12 — custom 3D models + custom overworld

🧍 Custom 3D models

Export any FF9 character/field model to Blender, edit the mesh and its animations, put it back in-game.

  • model-gltf → a rigged, textured, animated .glb you open in Blender
  • model-import → one edited .glb round-trips the mesh and any changed animation clips
  • Edit keyframes in Blender (or hand-edit clip JSON with model-anim); model-mint adds brand-new model ids
  • One-click Import / Export FF9 Model buttons in the Blender add-on
  • Robust across the model set (multi-mesh characters, story-evolved appearances, Blender re-sampling)

🗺️ Custom overworld

Reshape and extend the world map.

  • Sculpt the terrainworld-terrain raises hills, carves craters and ridges, and flattens ground by reshaping the real world mesh (seam-continuous, walkable, no DLL)
  • Turn ocean into new landworld-reclaim makes sea cells walkable, and world-coast carries a real FF9 coastline onto them (terrain + animated beach, surf, and foam) — the groundwork for whole new continents
  • Author brand-new overworld entrances from scratchworld-entrance drops a ! on the map that warps into any field, optionally fronted by a fully-modelled 3D building (built in Blender) that renders, blocks the player, and round-trips cleanly
  • Re-table the encountersworld-encounters changes which monsters roam an area/zone; world-encounter-rate retunes how often they strike
  • Re-texture the world — reskin atlas tiles or paint new atlas art onto new geometry (three tiers of texturing, all no-DLL)
  • Rename & reveal minimap markers (Lindblum → "Falcon City") and author weather & environment effects
  • The F6 debug menu now runs on the overworld — live position/cell/disc readout, teleport, vehicle-mode swap, disc 1↔4 switch

🔧 F6 debug menu

4-tab redesign, unified pin list (field warps + overworld teleports), and a "Reload + anims" button.
