Font Hacking For FFMQ
The premise is simple. 8x8 tiles programmed in binary, with 0
representing transparent and 1 representing white.
for example, 53= 01010011. This repeats itself 8 times vertically to
create a tile.
There will be two value for each row. The transparent, and the shown.
Simple rule: Both must add up to FF. If you see a tile where something
adds up to more than that, then it isn't a tile.
To see the tiles, use a hex editor of some kind. Set the row width to
64 in decimal, or 40h. The values for a tile will then line up
vertically.
I will list the starting values for said tiles. A tile, lined up with
width as told, will look like this
t1v1
t2v2
t3v3
t4v4
t5v5
t6v6
t7v7
t8v8
t=trans., V=visible.
Here are the starting bytes to each tile found so far in said format.
Compressed Tiles (For use in bottom spot of screen)
$384a4: Auto (Two tiles)
$384a8: Manual (Three tiles)
$38630: Top Left Corner
$38632: Bot Left Corner
$38634: Top Right Corner
$38636: Bot Right Corner
$38638: Veritcal line
$3863a: Horizontal Line
$3863c: Horizontal to right of name (One pixel less on left side)
$3863e: End (Three tiles)
$3864a: Compressed L
$3863c: Compressed E
$3863e: Compressed V
The following only work in talking text (I don't know why)
$38830: g
$38832: j
$38834: p
$38836: q
$38838: y
$3883A: h
The tiles for shrunk (see: level on bottom) numbers begin at $38A30 and goes from 0 to 9.
TIles $38A44-$38A4E are unknown useages.
TIles $38A50 are fullsized, from 0-9 and then A-F (F=$38A6E)
Tiles starting from $38C30-$38C6E) are G-Z (Z=$38C56), followed by a-l (l=#38C6E)
TIles starting with $38E30-$38E4A are tiles for m-z.
For the 38Exx group:
4c=!
4E=?
50=,
52='
54=.
56&58="
The others will be decoded soon, but should be punctuation, probably
running through $38E6E.
