Hi! This time I have a doubleheader: the first patch is a bug fix patch, the second is more of a tweak.

First: if Shadow had any status effects on him after the Floating Continent, when you eventually find him at the Colosseum, those status effects will still be there. I remember casting Float on Shadow to avoid damage from Atma Weapon's Quake, and when I fought him at the Colosseum, he was still floating. This patch fixes this behaviour by removing all statuses from Shadow (except Dog Block) after he says his line "I'll be blown to bits...".

Second: if you recruited Sabin in Tzen, he'll be present when Celes confronts Edgar, aka "Gerad", in Nikeah. Even though his own big brother is pretending to be someone else and claims not to know him, Sabin says nothing. There is even a line of dialogue that would be acceptable here, but it is unused...unless this patch is applied.

Both archives now include patches for the SFC version! The already-existing SNES patches have also been made smaller. No functional changes anywhere, just a reduction in size. For the record, I actually updated these patches yesterday, but Slick Productions was down at the time. :angry:

Shadow's Status patch has been reconfigured to use no free space, and has also been ported to GBA and PlayStation! If you update for SNES or SFC, apply the old reverse patch first.

Ditto with Gerad and Sabin.
