Editing the probabilities of formations in an encounter
« on: August 16, 2013, 12:31:26 PM »
Each map has associated with it the index of what I call an encounter. An encounter consists of eight formations (particular battles) which could be fought when you run into a battle on that map. We now know that the probability of each formation being selected is as follows:

1: 43/256
2: 43/256
3: 43/256
4: 43/256
5: 32/256
6: 32/256
7: 16/256
8: 4/256

The question then is, where are these probabilities stored, and can we change them? Can we make it so that, for example, encounter 8 only has 1/256, or has more of a chance, like say 12 or 16/256, and adjust the others accordingly?

I decided to finally take a look at this and have found some interesting information on it.

A Random Number is created when you go into an encounter... somehow (not really sure how) but those listings are appropriate...

Code: [Select]
$00/8AF1 E6 87 INC $87    [$00:0687] A:00CB X:0006 Y:0008 P:eNvMxdizc +1 to 000687.
$00/8AF3 D0 0E BNE $0E    [$8B03] A:00FF X:0006 Y:0008 P:envMxdizc - Does A read 00?
$00/8B03 A6 3D LDX $3D    [$00:063D] A:00FF X:0006 Y:0008 P:envMxdizc - Load X from 063D.
$00/8B05 C9 2B CMP #$2B A:00FF X:0000 Y:0008 P:envMxdiZc - Is it 2B (43)or Higher?
$00/8B07 90 1F BCC $1F    [$8B28] A:00FF X:0000 Y:0008 P:eNvMxdizC - If not branch to 008B28.
$00/8B09 E8 INX A:00FF X:0000 Y:0008 P:eNvMxdizC - +1 to X.
$00/8B0A C9 56 CMP #$56 A:00FF X:0001 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - Is it 56 (86) or Higher?
$00/8B0C 90 1A BCC $1A    [$8B28] A:00FF X:0001 Y:0008 P:eNvMxdizC - If not branch to 008B28
$00/8B0E E8 INX A:00FF X:0001 Y:0008 P:eNvMxdizC  - +1 to X.
$00/8B0F C9 81 CMP #$81 A:00FF X:0002 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - Is it 81 (129) or Higher?
$00/8B11 90 15 BCC $15    [$8B28] A:00FF X:0002 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - If not branch to 008B28.
$00/8B13 E8 INX A:00FF X:0002 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - +1 to X.
$00/8B14 C9 AC CMP #$AC A:00FF X:0003 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - Is it AC (172) or Higher?
$00/8B16 90 10 BCC $10    [$8B28] A:00FF X:0003 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - If not branch to 008B28.
$00/8B18 E8 INX A:00FF X:0003 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC  - +1 to X.
$00/8B19 C9 CC CMP #$CC A:00FF X:0004 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - Is it CC (204) or Higher?
$00/8B1B 90 0B BCC $0B    [$8B28] A:00FF X:0004 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - If not branch to 008B28.
$00/8B1D E8 INX A:00FF X:0004 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - +1 to X.
$00/8B1E C9 EC CMP #$EC A:00FF X:0005 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - Is it EC (236) or Higher?
$00/8B20 90 06 BCC $06    [$8B28] A:00FF X:0005 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - If not branch to 008B28.
$00/8B22 E8 INX A:00FF X:0005 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - +1 to X.
$00/8B23 C9 FC CMP #$FC A:00FF X:0006 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC Is it FC (251) or Higher?
$00/8B25 90 01 BCC $01    [$8B28] A:00FF X:0006 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - It not branch to 008B28 (not sure how that could happen)
$00/8B27 E8 INX A:00FF X:0006 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - +1 to X.
$00/8B28 86 3D STX $3D    [$00:063D] A:00FF X:0007 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - Store X in 3D (Where the Encounter is decided)
$00/8B2A 60 RTS A:00FF X:0007 Y:0008 P:envMxdizC - Return

And there you have it. That is the code which decides the encounter. Curiously enough it isn't taken by a random number alone. It is a Random Number +94 allowing for looping. So EC would loop back to a much less value.


Or maybe it's not so random after all... Hmm, I may have stumbled upon the true "RNG" of the game, at least in dealing with battles...

Code: [Select]
$00/8AE6 A5 87 LDA $87    [$00:0687] A:0000 X:006C Y:0008 P:envMxdiZc - Load Number of Battles Fought Since Starting Game (resets when you reset the game.)
$00/8AE8 AA TAX A:0016 X:006C Y:0008 P:envMxdizc - Transfer A to X.
$00/8AE9 BF 00 EE 14 LDA $14EE00,x[$14:EE16] A:0016 X:0016 Y:0008 P:envMxdizc - Load A starting from  14EE00 - (This is a value that changes everytime the file is loaded and Only when the File is Loaded it seems. Meaning if you're having bad RNG during a particular play session it may be because of this.
$00/8AEE 6D EE 17 ADC $17EE  [$00:17EE] A:002D X:0016 Y:0008 P:envMxdizc - Add this Value into A to create the "random number".

Now this is where things really start to fall off. I never expected FFIV to take such a cheap way for RNG (at least battle RNG.

14EE00 is a sequence of bytes that all have an assortment of bytes that never change, but all differ in value. From 14EE00 to 14EEFF. Which means a talented hacker could check their RNG at all times and know what is coming up. The value only moves when a battle occurs. It goes from 00 to 01, 01 to 02, etc.

Now this was informative and quite enlightening! I'm glad to see I could not just figure out battle probabilities but the underlying factors in their generation.

Enormous Update above! I stress any FFIV player with even a modicum of interest to check it out. The Battle Probability RNG is completely laid bare. (as in what encounter you will have, not the chance you will go into a battle mind you.)

I was fully aware how not random FF4 battles ran and it's not random.

The plus is that you know you are guaranteed to fight every possible on the encounter list the longer you are in a specific location.

It was more problematic in FF4A, but significantly better in FF4:TAY (although, I think the emulation is screwing with the drop distribution).

This is as far as we need to go for our purposes.

So yes, as long thought the changes are as labeled. When an item obtain occurs the game runs through a routine to see what the item obtained will be. 00-7F Common, 80-CF Uncommon, D0-FB Rare FD-FF. The values are listed above and are easily changed. I always thought the idea of a 1/64 Item a rather silly notion. It guarantees that you will most likely never get it and the item will be just a stupidly rare item. A novelty at best. Thank goodness for the Treasure Hunter Augment in FFIV:DS and the Rare Ring's in FFIV:TAY.

I still need to determine the chance that you will get an item in the first place.

It's known about the behavior... not as much know about where to look for it (unless some of the data is already someplace like DataCrystal).

It's probably a good idea to just get a monster that summons another monster (like an Imp/Goblin) and trace it after killing a bunch of them.

5/96 chance to drop for most monsters (set by the data, as referenced in zyrothgar's editor) with certain ones getting the 25% chance to drop (it's the monsters that drop Tents and Cabins).

I've been using an Imp with a Drop Rate of 2 (80) for tests, and that did lead me pretty far but only in terms of collecting items not their original chance of obtaining them.

The DataCrystal's RAM Map is pretty interesting, but it doesn't contain a lot of what's already known in the Tower of Babil Docs and barely anything about battle is even referred to.

For what its worth the exact same "random" sequence of bytes pointed out by Yousei long ago in 1900-19FF are the exact same sequence found in 14EE00 (LoRom/HiRom).


And I have found it! (At least the Item Chance. It was exactly as you thought DeathLike2. 5, 25, and 100%.)

Code: [Select]

The rest of the relevant code is above.

And there it is! All issues of Item Dealings that can be obtained from enemies. You can make the chance to obtain an item as high or as low as you like, but C0 seems to always be 100% because it skips the check to obtain the item. These things are quite simple to change and would likely be quite simple to include into the editor in time.
