Topic: C. V. Bug-Fix Comp and C. V. Script Fix (for SNES NA 1.0 version)

[Xenovant]

thanks!  that shows how insidious it it. :P  2 bytes to fix it:

FF3us:
C2/543C: 80 F6  BRA $5434
C2/5443: 80 EF  BRA $5434

FF6j / RPGOne:
C2/5424: 80 F6  BRA $541C
C2/542B: 80 EF  BRA $541C

untested, but pretty simple.

Tested, the ghost from the past has vanished :P

Hoi. :3

Sorry for the wait. I forgot.

Updated:

Map Mishap (Leet Sketcher) (to version 1.6)
Multiple Events Fix (Leet Sketcher) (to version 1.7)
Phoenix Chest (Leet Sketcher) (to version 1.2)

Too much to get done these days for me to keep up with sometimes. Maybe I'm just too good at wasting time.

Hoi. :3

Updated:

Shadow's Status (to version 1.2, which uses no free space)

That's all. Better I do it now than forget to later.

Just wondering if a version of CV's bug patch could be made without the Banon Riding patch. Reason being, it corrupts the sprites in FF3USME; yes, the Banon anti-patch can be applied to fix this, but it restores all sprites to default. So when applying the bug patch to a rom that you've taken the time to edit/change the sprites of, all that work will be instantly wiped out upon applying the bug patch. I don't know for 100% sure if the Banon patch is specifically what's making the sprites go back to default, but from what Leet said, it's most likely the cause.

I've added a set of "lite" patches to Banon Riding, which changes only the code and the pointers and do nothing to the sprites. Following the readme, you can add Banon's riding sprite manually using a hex editor.

Updated:

Phoenix Chest (to version 1.3)

The only change is this patch no longer uses free space. Still thought I should keep it up to date. :3

[13375K31C43R]

To be clear, did you apply the "old" reverse patch when you updated Phoenix Chest? You'll need to do that to remove the previous version that you updated from.

If you didn't do it before, you can still do it after. It's just better to make sure the free space is cleared up and the pointer to free space is reverted to point to the usual spot in the event code that triggers on map load.

[C. V. Reynolds]

Thank you, but no worries. I never use provided anti-patches. I always make my own regardless. :3 I trust my own anti-patches best since I've had some instances of included anti-patches failing for me. That way I can also be sure I'm not applying the wrong anti-patch by mistake. Security through paranoia is one of my calls. ;P

[13375K31C43R]

OK. I just wanted to be sure you'd actually removed the changes made by Phoenix Chest v1.2.

Trigger Happy (Leet Sketcher)

Did you happen to see this post?

In case you missed it...

Code: [Select]

C0/49F6:    9C 86 08       STZ $0886


Code: [Select]

C0/4A15:    A9 01           LDA #$01
C0/4A17:    8D 86 08      STA $0886

I explained that this section of code causes Terra to take an extra step if she's in motion when the ceiling falls in Zone Eater's belly. This can make her do things like walk off a ledge without falling, and it also contributes to the bug that Trigger Happy fixes. All that's needed is to replace it with this:

Code: [Select]

C0/49F6:    EA EA EA       NOP x3


Code: [Select]

C0/4A15:    EA (x5)         NOP x5

Leet, I keep up to date via your website. I visit daily in my routine of checking my favorite sites for updates. No kidding! It's possible I might miss forum posts, though.
(But Final Fantasy VI being better than VII is in no way controversial even WITHOUT the FFVI bugs fixed... and I'd actually say the same when it's FFVI vs. Chrono Trigger! ;P)

Added:

Walk This Way (Leet Sketcher)

Removed: Fancy Walking (because it's redundant with Walk This Way applied)

So is this patch the best 'fix all' patch we have so far?
I sort of stopped planning any modifications on a romhack a long time ago hoping to just use one of these mega-patch patches and sort of never picked it back up for I-don't-know-why reasons.

Probably haven't posted in years either. :O

It is indeed, the top tier upper echelon of bug fix mega-patches currently in existence.
