FF3us battle backgrounds are corrupted
« on: February 04, 2012, 01:34:06 AM »
I have no idea how or why but most of my battle background graphics are glitched.  I wasn't editing any graphics except for using a patch that restored the Japanese monster sprites censored by Nintendo.  Those came out perfect...

Where are the offsets so I can copy/paste restore these from a clean unedited ROM in to mine?

If that's all you used, then two things you must know:
1) If you edit anything sprite-related, this patch must be done... first before any editing is done ...or else Very Bad Things™ (see above) will happen.
2) The patch is header only.

119 bugs fixed and counting.

Um, I don't get it?  I read Lord J's readme on the graphics restore patch he had on his website and it didn't say anything like what you stated. 

Do you have the offsets to fix the battle backgrounds or do I need to transplant my altered data (which is a lot) from my current ROM to a new fresh ROM and start over?

It's not stated because people generally didn't think much of it at the time.

Unfortunately, I do not know.

I fear you'll end up doing this. :sad:

Already done.  :). I can replace some of them myself.  The Dahling sprite can be damned.  I'm not jacking with those pointers.
