Another bizarre reference to Target Strength, again it seems to automatically make the damage recovered 9999. This may have been in earlier plans or something. Since it can't be seen in the normal game and there is no logical way of activating it just like with Explode. It is interesting to see a Routine inside of a Routine in the form of Absorb though.

Damage, Status (Unused?) Routine

Code: [Select]
$03/DD92 20 88 D3 JSR $D388  [$03:D388] A:0003 X:0050 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Jump to Spell Damage Routine.
$03/DD95 4C 24 D5 JMP $D524  [$03:D524] A:0081 X:0155 Y:0000 P:eNvMxdizc - Jump to Status Routine. (Leaves Routine)

Well.. it does what it says on the tin. But it doesn't do anything that Roc (Also Damage, Status) doesn't do. And it does it in quite a few less bytes. Hmm, maybe damage on the Roc spell isn't using the normal method of damage (Spell Power) but something else maybe? What it does seem to do is suppress the Graphic data oddly enough. There will be no graphic for the spell when this formula is used.

Alert, Call Routine

Code: [Select]
$03/DD98 EE E6 38 INC $38E6  [$7E:38E6] A:0003 X:0052 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - +1 to 7E38E6.
$03/DD9B 7B TDC A:0003 X:0052 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Transfer Direct Page.
$03/DD9C AA TAX A:0000 X:0052 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Transfer A to X.
-----------------------------(Loop Point)
$03/DD9D BD B5 29 LDA $29B5,x[$7E:29B5] A:0000 X:0000 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Load 7E29B5.
$03/DDA0 C9 FF CMP #$FF A:0000 X:0000 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Is it FF?
$03/DDA2 F0 03 BEQ $03    [$DDA7] A:0000 X:0000 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - If so, continue on.
$03/DDA4 E8 INX A:0000 X:0000 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Increase X by 1.
$03/DDA5 80 F6 BRA $F6    [$DD9D] A:0000 X:0001 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Loop back to 03DD9D. (Looking for an empty spot to put the new monster data.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$03/DDA7 86 8A STX $8A    [$00:008A] A:00FF X:0004 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZC - Store X in 8A.
$03/DDA9 A9 01 LDA #$01 A:00FF X:0004 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZC - Load 01 (Monster Group 2) into A.
$03/DDAB 4C 5C DF JMP $DF5C  [$03:DF5C] A:0001 X:0004 Y:0000 P:envMxdizC - Jump to ?Audio-Visual Effect? Routine.
(While in this subroutine the monster is placed onto the battlefield with a clean slate as if it was the start of battle, it leaves the Routine from here)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It seems that its possibly to switch which Monster Group is summoned by Call. I'm not sure how useful that information is, but there it is anyhow.

Black Hole Routine -
Code: [Select]
$03/DDAE AD 04 27 LDA $2704  [$7E:2704] A:0003 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Load Target's Status Byte 2.
$03/DDB1 85 A9 STA $A9    [$00:00A9] A:0000 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Store it in A9.
$03/DDB3 29 BB AND #$BB A:0000 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc  - Add -44 to it (Nulling Berserk and Float)
$03/DDB5 8D 04 27 STA $2704  [$7E:2704] A:0000 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Store the value in Target's Status Byte 2.
$03/DDB8 AD 06 27 LDA $2706  [$7E:2706] A:0000 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Load  Target's Status Byte 4.
$03/DDBB 29 C3 AND #$C3 A:0000 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Add -3C (Nulling Image 1, Image 2, Barrier, and Wall)
$03/DDBD 8D 06 27 STA $2706  [$7E:2706] A:0000 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Store the value in Target's Status Byte 4.
$03/DDC0 A9 10 LDA #$10 A:0000 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Load 10 into A.
$03/DDC2 8D 3B 27 STA $273B  [$7E:273B] A:0010 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Store A in Target's Speed. (Resetting it)
$03/DDC5 60 RTS A:0010 X:0054 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Return

Very straightforward code, while all of this was known it is interesting to see that This is what Dispel should have been in the first place. I would suggest cannibalizing Dispel for a custom routine and just use Black Hole as a replacement.

Trigger a Reaction Routine -

Code: [Select]
$03/DDD9 60 RTS A:0003 X:005A Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Sure. Alright.

We have a winner! The smallest amount of Code goes to Trigger a Reaction! (No clue on why this would be so short.)

$03/DDFB A9 03 LDA #$03 A:0000 X:0004 Y:0004 P:envMxdizc - Load 03 into A.
$03/DDFD 20 C8 85 JSR $85C8  [$03:85C8] A:0003 X:0004 Y:0004 P:envMxdizc - Jump to Subroutine (May deal something with Healing - Seems to leave routine from here)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$03/DE24 AD 09 27 LDA $2709  [$7E:2709] A:0000 X:0060 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Load A from Target's Max HP.

$03/DE30 60 RTS A:0001 X:0060 Y:0000 P:envMxdizc - Return

Bah, cut it to the wire. So I don't have time to finish this now. Will hopefully be able to do so tonight.

 :edit: Hmm, there is a noticeable difference missing here. Maybe it's data used in another formula?

I remember trying to modify this routine to get it to heal (1 / Spell Power) instead of a static 1/10 but I couldn't seem to get it to work. I'm sure that discussion is here somewhere, maybe archived or something.

Ah, I can see why this might be an issue. Spell Power in this case would refer to...


AD 9D 28   LDA $289D  [$7E:289D]   A:0001   X:00C1   Y:0000   P:envMxdizC - Load A from 289D (Presumably Spell Power)

At least in that case (and Life's case) but not for the Ordinary routine...

You are right. It's not absolute and I am a bit flabbergasted...

Even another value where Spell Power is written (7E28A1 - Possibly the difference between healing and harming?) it shows nothing special when Remedy is used...

Alright, after a bit of digging I found your original topic and you thought the same exact thing I had. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work with Absorb/Remedy for some reason. While it did load 2 HP for me on a constant basis (with a 200 HP character, effectively healing 1/100 of my HP) it did not line up with my spell power, which I have no idea where it goes for this spell. It may just be that some spells have their spell power completely ignored. But that would be strange as you'd expect that to be the case with Life as well. hmm...


Or maybe I missed the obvious...

$03/DD5A   A2 0A 00   LDX #$000A   A:0000   X:004E   Y:0000   P:envMxdiZc - Load 0A into X. (/10. How much % of HP to heal)

An X you idiot, oy... sometimes I wonder if I'm qualified for this sort of thing, heh.

Alright. While it may not be ideal, there is a workaround you can do. While the game does not appear to load its Spell Power (it still might, I could be wrong on its location) you can tie it to Element. Element is never used in the formula so you won't need to worry about Elemental Resistances or Weaknesses.

Fire - 1 (1/1)
Ice - 2 (1/2)
Lightning - 4 (1/4)
Dark - 8 (1/8)

And that's probably as far as you would want to go with that. (The rest of the elements would recover such ridiculously low amounts)...

Or maybe I could use my brain for once tonight and look at things in a reasonable manner. Yes the Spell Power is saved to 7E289D. Even Remedy's Spell Power.

Why wasn't this working when you tried it? You likely made the same mistake as me...

Here is your code...

1DF5A: AE 9D 28   (Load X with $7E:289D)



Here is mine...

$03/DD5A   AE 9D 28   LDX $289D  [$7E:289D]   A:0000   X:004E   Y:0000   P:envMxdiZc
$03/DD5D   8E 47 39   STX $3947  [$7E:3947]   A:0000   X:FF05   Y:0000   P:eNvMxdizc

One thing we did not account for was it reading Two Bytes instead of just the single one. Despite looking for an answer to this (which there Must be!) I have had no luck locating it. It deals something with 8-bit and 16-bits and using an instruction to change between the two. But there is little space to do so here, I have no idea on how to begin looking for it.

-----------------------------

Alright! Finally after about another half hour of tinkering there is a work around we can do to make this work optimally and read Spell Power.

We were on the right track, but we didn't take X's lack of ?versatility? into consideration. If we instead use...

$03/DD5A   AD 9D 28   LDA $289D  [$7E:289D]   A:0000   X:004E   Y:0000   P:envMxdiZc
$03/DD5D   8D 47 39   STA $3947  [$7E:3947]   A:0005   X:004E   Y:0000   P:envMxdizc

Instead of...

$03/DD5A   A2 0A 00   LDX #$000A   A:0000   X:004E   Y:0000   P:envMxdiZc - Load 0A into X. (/10. How much % of HP to heal.
$03/DD5D   8E 47 39   STX $3947  [$7E:3947]   A:0000   X:000A   Y:0000   P:envMxdizc - Store X in 7E3947.

Then everything works out fine.

I was leery at first in changing the register it was putting the data into but it caused no code mishaps and healed the target Dependent on the Spell Power rather than anything else. Phew, that was brain-draining for such a simple little problem.

What a mouthful this routine is... I thought it would be as easy as "Kill Self, summon monster" but there's a lot more moving parts to it than that, likely because of the intricacies in bringing back six monsters in Calbrena to Cal and Brena.

This Routine takes a random enemy, puts that into targeting (CD) and then demands its own targeting to follow that enemy on their next turn. Worthless for PC's because they can switch it manually.

$03/DFFC 60 RTS A:0000 X:0000 Y:0000 P:envMxdiZc - Return.

Curiously enough it will not work if a player tries to use it. I'm not sure why that is.

Now this is a really strange one. Apparently it is another formula that looks for a specific character (and again that character is Rydia). That battle formation has to hide Rydia somehow in a manner that I don't fully understand. It looks to put some sort of status on her and keep her hidden from sight and then removes all timers attached to her. What this routine seems to say is that Rydia is always actually in the battle, just not present. Hmm...

But for now that is all but one of the Routines (Yousei handled those I didn't go over long ago) aside from Heal (because it's apparently nearly 200 Bytes long!) I'll get to that eventually. For now I should see if I can use any of this newfound knowledge on Commands.

Counter Routine

Well... that seemed straightforward enough.

This is such a waste of space and opportunity. For whatever reason the game has four extra bytes allocated to it (possibly more) that would easily allow someone to add in an Elemental or Status component.

I will have to move away slightly from my ordinary coding (as shown through Geiger's) to get the point across...

This is what is at 03DDD0 Ordinarily

2E 03 39 4C AF C9 EE 81 38 60 - The 60 is the RTS which takes it out of the routine, but it never seems to be properly read. Nor are the three bytes before it as far as I could tell. It has the barebones basic of being an attack formula without anything added to it.

To...

Say we wanted to add Elemental to this...

2E 03 39 20 30 E1 4C AF C9 60 - This adds in 20 30 E1 Or Jump to E130 which is the Elemental Damage Routine.


Say you wanted Cecil to learn a series of Elemental Sword Attacks, this change would allow the Counter Formula to do so and if you didn't want the data to be the same exact as your physical attack you would change the 7E269D to something else desired. Maybe base it on Cecil's Current MP making it scale in power (and if controlled properly) but shouldn't overtake the power of the available swords. You could also, in essence, cannibalize Sing to give Cid a "Random Element Attack" skill. This is quite a unique formula and it may just be better to expand on it rather than worry about Absorb too much.

Well, it's a straight damage attack powered by your actual weapon power... it's the basic idea that I made for a hack that replaced the godawful Goblin's Punch to the same concept that was used in FF5 (the FF4 version is technically better... plus it's great for a hack).

Damage, Poison (Venom, Poison) Routine.

A bit of deja vu... well I guess all of those formula's follow a similar progression so it makes sense that they might somewhat repeat themselves. The definitions of the repeated Jumps are explained in the Mage Subroutine above. No surprises here. While you can change the inflicted status the Timers will likely become askewed because of the absence of Poison.

If you could find the damage algo, that would be greatly appreciated.

Odin Routine


Now it makes sense! The reason why Sylph is broken and Odin is not, is because the loop has the 80 attached and it loops immediately to that subroutine, therefore counting all five slots.. As far as I can tell the Sylph formula may have a lot unnecessary fluff that the Odin formula bypasses through a jump rather than having the formula attempt to add 80 itself and fail in the long run. Even so the game doesn't necessarily take Odin's formula into consideration as using Odin as another character will reduce the MP of that character and not just Rydia if Sylph is used. However there is a strange measure that goes along with this where if another character uses Odin, their MP will become Rydia's current MP. But this is only done if Odin fails. If it succeeds nothing special happens with MP.

The Level Checking portion of the spell seems to be located elsewhere. But if the Level Check does not succeed than the game does not even try to load the rest of the routine. Even if you do succeed you have a 50/50 chance of succeeding in using it. That seems a bit low so for balancing purposes it may be best to increase the player's chances a bit to maybe 60-65% chance of success.

I haven't really figured out the level check, but it is more prevalent in the GBA port than it is the SNES ports.

Count Routine

Not a very long or complicated code, but this doesn't answer the reasons why the game has trouble killing more than two monsters with Count. Not much help there, I'm afraid.

@Chillfeez - That spell is in desperate need of some help. Unfortunately I can't begin to fathom where this level check is. It may deal something special with simply choosing the spell rather than anything leading up to its casting.

Count is Reflectable... and has serious bugs in its design. Try it and you'll see really weird stuff with the ATB.

Recover 1/10 - Recover 1/3 Target's HP (Remedy/Absorb) Routines

Another bizarre reference to Target Strength, again it seems to automatically make the damage recovered 9999. This may have been in earlier plans or something. Since it can't be seen in the normal game and there is no logical way of activating it just like with Explode. It is interesting to see a Routine inside of a Routine in the form of Absorb though.

I'm trying to recall if there were monsters that used Remedy (1/10 of maxHP) that weren't boss monsters.. I know there are a number of monsters that use Absorb (1/3 of maxHP) that aren't bosses...

I don't think there's any monster that manipulates its Attack Power though (it's hard to recall at this hour)... but something like the "monster that has no image" might be the one. It has the max attack power set to it (like the Dark Elf YOU FOOLS version). I've kinda envisioned that monster to be the one where you convert the 2-handed Crystal Sword to a one-handed version. That would make for an interesting battle.

Search Routine

I don't know what to make of this routine, honestly. Using it as if it were a spell didn't appear to do much of anything to monster targeting.

It's supposed to set the monster's next target to the one previously chosen by Search. That's why the TrapDoors have the giveaway secret to Reflect.

It is also used by the Last Arm for Reflect... but also changes the "Target All" of its Fission attack (self-explode, damage everyone) to whoever that target was. It's only good for the enemy that uses it, but I suspect you can manipulate it for the same thing Golbez uses.

Hatch Routine

Curiously enough it will not work if a player tries to use it. I'm not sure why that is.

Hatch applies to the monster that uses it and has the status. It is the only reaction to damage in virtually any battle script.

Something Happens to Adult Rydia  Routine

Now this is a really strange one. Apparently it is another formula that looks for a specific character (and again that character is Rydia). That battle formation has to hide Rydia somehow in a manner that I don't fully understand. It looks to put some sort of status on her and keep her hidden from sight and then removes all timers attached to her. What this routine seems to say is that Rydia is always actually in the battle, just not present. Hmm...

But for now that is all but one of the Routines (Yousei handled those I didn't go over long ago) aside from Heal (because it's apparently nearly 200 Bytes long!) I'll get to that eventually. For now I should see if I can use any of this newfound knowledge on Commands.

The status is most likely Hide (the same one Edward uses), because the animation isn't really all that special (the unhiding part, which is to show up in the battle).

If you could find the damage algo, that would be greatly appreciated.

Where to start... I know there are several formulas which are basically "damage determination", but even with physical attacks I saw no reference to a character's Physical Attack Base. Only to their chance to hit for several matters. That is worth further exploration.


Quote from: Deathlike2 on September 26, 2013, 02:19:15 AM
I haven't really figured out the level check, but it is more prevalent in the GBA port than it is the SNES ports.

Really? I thought it was pretty unyielding here. It took roughly 10 casts from a Level 1 Rydia to kill a group of Level 5 Larva with it. It's even worse in the GBA Port then?

I don't doubt it. It may be fundamentally flawed with monsters and thereby virtually unusable in many respects.

I'm not sure what enemies use Remedy either. 10% HP doesn't seem very... good. However that is a misconception with Absorb (I even noticed this using my Twin Healing Hack) what it heals is 1/3 of the Target's Current HP. Not Max HP. So if you're down to 60 you would heal 20 regardless of your Max HP and the code backs that up as well. I do know that no monsters seem to have a programmed "Strength" stat. So if these were ever in their plans to use effectively it likely dealt with the player or maybe monster layout was difference once upon a time?

That is a Really neat idea for that unused monster slot to have been involved with making the Crystal Sword 1-Handed. Setting that scenario up with an event doesn't seem to be that difficult either. And I think I know where such an event may have possibly been planned to take place... There's a blank wall in the Lunar Subterrane 4th Floor that has a Trigger set that leads to a Glitch World (As the second to last map) The wall is quite inconspicuous in the first place. So there may be something to that theory.

Golbez uses targets from within his script to directly target the party members for Black Fang. Maybe it's only special attacks. I was fighting against a group of enemies which never did anything special so that could have been the problem.

You're likely right but there's still one unknown to that still. The monster is listed as "Egg" while inside of an Egg, which is probably what some of that code has a hand in changing to its proper name, now that I think on it.

That makes a great deal of sense! But that must mean that there is special code which not only Hides Rydia for that battle but also makes her name and HP invisible as well. These are all worthy of another glance.

That only appears to be part of it because this number here doesn't actually correspond 100% with the damage done. It may be the base damage before taking Multipliers and Defense into Effect. In some instances I see it dealing a little more or a little less damage than displayed (except where Multipliers are involved than it's x2 the shown amount roughly. Now this seems to be how the game reaches any damage quota... (before multipliers and the like) - Base Attack Power + 0-1/2 of Base Attack Power = Raw Attack Damage.

This does seem to be the end of this routine anyhow. I know Magic also is taken through this same pattern as well (there must be some marked differences though, I haven't really explored it too well) and after this there is another routine that seems to do something similar... ish.

Grimoire - AND is a bitwise comparison command.
When the game ANDs, it compares the bits of the value specified with those of the register in question.
So, if A is 1C (00011100) and you AND it with 38 (00111000), the result will be whichever "ones" are held in common - in this case, 00011000, or 18.
If you AND with 7F (01111111), as mentioned a few times above, the result will be zero if and only if the register starts as 80 (10000000).
 :edit: oops - or if the register is 00. Sorry.
AND is used quite a bit in displaying monster images, so I had to figure this out for what I was working on. Hope this helps.

Well, the Black Flan (Pudding) in this game are at level 50... whereas the GBA port's version is @ level 98. Although, levels are likely altered to counter Steal, not nerf Odin.

I meant to use 1/3 of currentHP. In my hack I have Asura set up to regular healing, Remedy healing (1/10 maxHP) (purple face), and Absorb healing (1/3 currentHP) (yellow/orange mad face).

Indeed, that's what I had expected to see. I tried it on my characters but still monsters attacked them at random rather than set to attack the one that had Search used. Golbez uses targets from within his script to directly target the party members for Black Fang. Maybe it's only special attacks. I was fighting against a group of enemies which never did anything special so that could have been the problem.

You would have to manipulate ALL of the monsters on the field's targeting... since the code probably alters "self" (meaning the lone monster) on the field.


Quote
You're likely right but there's still one unknown to that still. The monster is listed as "Egg" while inside of an Egg, which is probably what some of that code has a hand in changing to its proper name, now that I think on it.

It is tied to a few things, so you'd have to track down the details. You could probably manipulate it for actual Pigs, Toads, and Mini if you were clever.

Oh yeah! I recall now getting that in your hack and finding it quite useful to take out foes with decent magic defense with her. I do think the Whips are in desperate need of help though. But its not like we can't modify most aspects of a weapon nowadays anyhow.

Oh... well I did find the normal damage formula and recorded it down to the best of my ability. Poison routine is a bit of a mystery. I'm not sure where to start digging to find it. Unless you meant the 1/8 damage it deals to the character and how to change that (if possible, I already have a sneaking suspicion its run through the same bit of code that Dark Wave is ran through...

And I am correct.  The game gets to that 1/8 damage through that LSR A we've seen before at 038485.

Well, the Black Flan (Pudding) in this game are at level 50... whereas the GBA port's version is @ level 98. Although, levels are likely altered to counter Steal, not nerf Odin.

Ether farming, if memory serves right is probably the reason for that, yeah. "Let's make a marginally useful skill completely worthless!" I rather like my idea of changing the byte to always steal the 1/64 drop, thereby having (for all intents and purposes) steal-only items.

I meant to use 1/3 of currentHP. In my hack I have Asura set up to regular healing, Remedy healing (1/10 maxHP) (purple face), and Absorb healing (1/3 currentHP) (yellow/orange mad face).

That's a good use of the formulas actually.

You would have to manipulate ALL of the monsters on the field's targeting... since the code probably alters "self" (meaning the lone monster) on the field.

Hmm, there might be something there. It seemingly makes no direct reference to Target or Caster though and just reduces a value until it reaches FF. But the Search skill does actually work by targeting another character, it must be a mess of things then.

It is tied to a few things, so you'd have to track down the details. You could probably manipulate it for actual Pigs, Toads, and Mini if you were clever.

Haha, quite a bit of work I would imagine.

Hmm, I need to think about what to look up next. I should probably take another look at commands but this Regen thing is really bothering me... it may not be possible for it to recover MP by the way the game is set up unfortunately.

If you ever thought Drain weaponry were too powerful (I know I sure do) then you would change 03C80B - 9D D5 34 - (Load some value somewhere. Doesn't appear to do anything...) to 4E D4 34 (Divides the healing done by Drain Weaponry by 2.)

And if you ever need help finding this in ROM just search a sequence of bytes closeby to your desired address you wish to deal with and you should find the offset with little issue.

What can be done with information: Well for all of the Creature Type and Elemental Resists and the like Square opted to use numbers clearly delineating the amount of damage these would cause. So while Jump/Focus is seemingly a lost cause you can change any dealings with the Creature Types, Elementals, and Weaknesses as you please. Their power is in the notes to their specific functionality. 0 = 1 Damage, 1 = 1/2 Damage, 2 = Normal Damage 4 = x2 Damage 8 = x4 Damage. (Which due to reorganization is likely in the post above this one.)

Here is more of What can be done with the Normal Fight Command.
