Zozma, your posts about your hack are what inspired me to try my hand at this.

I have no previous experience with using a hex editor, but I've found it quite easy to grasp with the help provided by some of the threads on this board.  Thanks to all posters!

At this stage, the palette issue is the only thing holding me back from making the hack I want to make.  I hope somebody can help with this.  Expanding the available palettes for playable characters is surely something that all particpants here would find useful.

Found it. I actually found it the day after I last posted, but haven't had time to post yet. The information is here (ROM with header):

A81A2-A81CB   Magic List # to Menu Item Link (3 bytes per character: top list, mid list, bottom list)

The top list name defaults to "White", the middle to "Black", and the bottom to "Call". (I don't know where the information is that changes Edge's to "Ninja".) So, for example, Dark Knight Cecil's 3 bytes are FF FF FF, since he doesn't use magic. If you wanted to map magic list 01 to Black magic for Cecil, you would change his list to FF 01 FF.

Ah, success!  :cycle:

I hope thread necromancy is allowed here.  I just found something pertinent to this thread, which has been very helpful to me.

You can change Edge's "Ninja" command to "Black" by editing this hex data.  At location B405, change the string "4F 64 69 65 5C" to "43 67 5C 5E 66."

There may be a more elegant solution, but I found this to work well.

Final Fantasy IV Research & Development / Switching Map Sprite Palettes
« on: May 14, 2011, 11:28:58 AM »
Hi all.  I'm new to this.  All I've really done so far is edit sprites and palettes and move some things around, but I'm trying to grow my comprehension so that I can do more advanced edits.

I have a question about palettes for map sprites.  For example:  Edge's map sprite shares a palette with Dark Knight Cecil, Kain, Cid, Yang, and FuSoYa.  Let's say I want to change that so that Edge instead shares a palette with the overworld map's black chocobo.  Can this be done?  What bit needs to be changed?

I apologize if this was answered elsewhere.  I found a wealth of information already by reading this board, but I didn't see this issue addressed anywhere.

Thanks!
