New patch: King's Robes tweak
« on: October 29, 2016, 07:21:02 PM »
Hey, everyone, here's another new patch! This one fixes what I don't really deem to be a "bug", so much as just a continuity mistake. This is the infamous case of Edgar switching back and forth between his normal outfit and his Gerad clothes when confronting the Tentacles in the Figaro Castle basement. Since Edgar doesn't permanently switch back into his royal threads until after the thieves leave him for dead, I figured the fairest way to eliminate this goof was to have Edgar keep his Gerad garments on during the fight against the Tentacles, but he'll still wear his normal duds in every other fight.

:edit: July 22, 2017
Added patches for GBA.

:edit: February 6, 2018
Previous version of the patch was unusable due to a length error; this is now fixed.

I hate being the bearer of bad news, but this was already fixed by mblock (https://web.archive.org/web/20150418233756/http://zephyr129.brinkster.net/), but this one can be used as an alternative patch, since the fix is different.

IIRC, mblock's patch used some free space after the pointers for the dialogue, and ff3usme "didn't like that". That's a point in your favor :P

Nothing against mblock129, but I prefer my method over his because I find the whole idea that Edgar even has time to change while there are these tentacle thingies in the engine room threatening to kill him is nonsense. Not to mention my way is a little more faithful to what the game actually shows.

I guess he was thinking more on the style of a cartoon, where the character changes its clothes instantly, by just swinging his cape and covering the camera with it :P

Could be. Or maybe he had his king's outfit on underneath his Gerad outfit. It would explain how he even has both outfits on his person with one hidden in the first place, but then I couldn't fathom how he doesn't die of heat stroke. :laugh:

Either way, with one fix or another, the scene still disappoints me. A japanese game, tentacles, a girl dressed like this...



Come on... it NEEDS a humorous line there!!!  :happy:


It's true there's a small joke about that on the japanese version of the game, the first time you encounter Ultros, with Terra, but this one, was the perfect situation :P

EDIT: Of course, I'm just kidding :P
