World.BIN - Ability Stat Change Previews

Hi guys,

I had a quick question if anyone could answer - was any progress made into mining World.BIN to find out how stat change previews are done (like when you have Move+1 selected and see +1 next to Move)?

I've tried to check it out myself but having some difficulty finding exactly what routine decides that an ability has stat changes etc.

Thanks in advance.

This is all I got. There's one with Item Previews: http://ffhacktics.com/wiki/Item_Previews

I'm not sure what's in these, but it's something lol

Thanks Choto,

I was looking at the routine starting x122f0c since there's to it in the routine I was originally looking at, and only for abilities that display stat changes (others skip the link via branch) but the calculations are done using data already placed on the stack - trick is to try to find when that data is placed there.

Will try to look again when I get home. Just irks me to have Support Abilities that alter stats without a preview for the player!
