Edit Spreadsheet

[makar17]

What is it?
It is a spreadsheet for edit making. There are times where I have close to nothing to do at work and I wish I was home making edits. Or there are times when my wife is using the TV and I can't work on my edits. Or there are times when I'm making edits in the game and I become distracted with other things and I waste too much time and don't finish the edit.

How does it work?
It's basically an Excel file done with Office 2003. I left out the appearance part of edit making. It includes:
- Name
- Skills
- Appearance
- Moveset
- Parameter
- Logic

There are some yellow colored cells. DO NOT TYPE OR DELETE ANYTHING ON THE YELLOW CELLS. Those are the cells where info will populate after you select them from drop down menus. In some cells there are drop down menus, like in the skill and moveset section. Let's say you are in the moveset part of the spreadsheet and you click on the Stand [] attack. A down arrow will come up. Click on that and you get the drop down menu. Select the move from that list. In case you want to leave the cell blank, just click on the cell and hit backspace.

You need to try it out because it's not easy for me to explain it without pictures. If you have any questions, leave them here and I will do my best to answer them.

New in Final v.2
- Cell protection removed. Just don't type or delete anything in the yellow cells.
- Specialty/Critial changed. Instead of two columns, now it's just one, and they are colored blue for specialties and red for criticals.
- The only yellow cell that you have to manually input info is the one next to "Special" in the Name and Skill section. Excel doesn't let me have a lot of formula segments in any cell. Just type the number between the <> in the drop down menu. Example: Monster <35>. Type 35 in the yellow cell next to it so is added at the bottom.
- The appearance section has been made thinner.

I guess this is the real final version. Unless you guys find any errors in this one. In that case, let me know.

I like how you did it on one sheet, instead of spread out like I did with mine (when I was going under a different username back around US release date):

Did a small update on the file. When you select the weight, it is in feet and includes the cm. And the weight is in pounds and it is converted to kg.

Also, the moves include the parameters used.

Yours is so much more useful than my rendition. Parameters and the auto-fill on the logic section is nice.

I had (still have) no clue about logic or anything to do with the FPR engine so what I put together was basically a copy of everything in game.

You can use Open Office.

I found out that I in fact do have excel on my pc. I think this is awesome! I would like to know how others use speadsheets though since with my method of making edits, this seems redundant.

This is well done. Plan to load it onto my laptop so I can work on some edits on my lunch break.

Final v.2 is up. Had to fix some minor issues. Hopefully this will really be the final version.
