Leet Sketcher's Anniversary Pack
« on: May 05, 2016, 11:53:30 PM »
Hi everyone! Happy anniversary to me! I have decided to celebrate by releasing my newest creation: Leet Sketcher's Anniversary Pack! It is basically a collection of all of my previous patches, plus my Headerizer program, plus five brand new patches! I can't post the collection here due to the space limit, but it is available on my website. I also will not post the new patches on the forum, but you can download them either with the collection or individually from my website. These are the new patches:

  • Bye Bye Breath: Fixes two bugs related to Phunbaba's use of BabaBreath
  • Imp Skimp: Improves the game's displaying of Imp status on monsters
  • Morph Mayhem: Fixes some bugs related to Terra's Morph ability
  • Narshe's Door: Fixes the bug that causes the secret cave door in Narshe in the World of Ruin to reclose itself
  • Unequipium: Forces equipment removal event scripts to reload character stats

I am hoping to improve Morph Mayhem in the near future, and I may update some other previously released patches as well. If/when I do, the Anniversary Pack will be updated with the new versions of those patches. However, any new patches I release will not be added.

I want to thank everyone for their tremendous help over the past year, because I seriously wouldn't have made it a whole year without everyone's advice, consultations and requests. Here's to another glorious year of writing patches! :childish:

congrats on an eventful year!

minor website corrections:
- 'Uploaded "Bye Bye Breath" patch v1.0.' is listed twice.  change the second.
- there is no "stone_faced" anchor tag, so clicking that rename update does nothing.
- clicking "Leet Sketcher's Anniversary Pack"! scrolls you down slightly too far.  consider moving the anchor tag into the top of the "In honor of..." table cell instead.  Novalia Spirit made the same mistake on his website. :P
- change my website link to: http://assassin17.brinkster.net/

as for Phunbaba, i think having a very strong X-Fighter attack him at 15361+ HP (of 26000 total) can also accomplish the first bug.  i was aware of it as a Blow Fish -learning loophole, but didn't think about it being another path to a full party.

Ah, thanks for pointing that stuff out. I also noticed that I hadn't properly renamed Stone Faced on the website. All of that has now been fixed.

Are you talking about really quickly getting Phunbaba down from 15,361+ HP to 0? Because Square actually had the foresight to add a conditional BabaBreath on just one party member if the player actually manages to kill Phunbaba, and for some reason they also added a "boss death" animation in that scenario. I did think about what would happen if it was accomplished using a strong attacker wearing a Dragon Horn, and I came to the conclusion that because BabaBreath is also triggered on Phunbaba's death (even though you have to fight him again shortly after), it wouldn't be a problem, and by that same logic your X-Fight scenario shouldn't either.

ah, thanks.  yes, i was.  i stupidly didn't have a script in front of me when posting that.  btw, bover_87's Monster Scripts FAQ has Phunbaba #3's counterattack script way wrong, apparently a paste of #4.  i could totally blame that, but i wasn't even looking at it at the time. :P

another minor anchor tag move: Better Dice's, into the "Setzer's Dice weapons..." table cell.  that should be the only other one, unless you care about all your screenshots being slightly scrolled off when reached via anchor links.

Congratulation! A winner is you!
In all seriousness, thanks for showing up on the scene and for the many many patches, some for bugs I never even know about. I've incorporated 17 of them into my hack thus far. :whoa:

I also give congratulations to Leet Sketcher. LS, you've kept me happy and hopping with the patches this past year.

Now to bring the rain cloud because that's just me.

Narshe's Door patches are broken, headered and headerless.

Bye Bye Breath writes to two of the same areas The Wild Cat (AKA the bug FF3usME loves to fix) writes to. Which should be applied first and are they compatible?

If you use FF3usME don't apply it to your hack, just apply it on a clean rom, open the program, export the 3 scripts (monsters 362 to 364), and import them on your hack. BTW, it's broken, it's missing a byte, the F1 command, here:

Code: [Select]
CF/BE46: F1 44 TARGET: Random ally
You'll have to wait until he fixes it, or you could add it by yourself...

I'll look at Bye Bye Breath and how to make it compatible with the Wild Cat fix.

And about Narshe's Door, what exactly is it doing that's broken?

OK, it actually looks as though Bye Bye Breath requires the Wild Cat fix. The Wild Cat fix moves a whole bunch of enemy scripts in order to make room for the fix. I'll make a version that doesn't require the Wild Cat fix.

OK, I see the problem with Narshe's Door. I'll get right on it.

What was wrong with it, testing here just now on a clean ROM it seemed to be working (Narsh's Door).

It was actually inapplicable. I used RLE encoding to apply a bunch of FEs in a row, but I used one too many zeroes in the RLE.
