Xif's Fixes (ASM Hacks & Spreadsheets)

Then it isn't really an invisibility status any more.

I'd rather have it function just like in FF6 where it was a catch 22 status. Only I'd keep the AI ignore thing. That way if you were in the middle of a large AoE spell and had transparent you'd get a spell straight up your ass with no chance to evade.
You'd have to make it so that the player can't cast it on enemies to eliminate the vanish + death combo.

problem is, most spells don't start missing anyways until mid-chapter 3, feather mantle and/or hi-end shields...
i would suggest the same changes but rename the status from transparent to something more fitting. hell, transparent isn't really transparent since if the AI uses it you still see them and can act against them  

i dunno, i just don't think there are enough spells present that would make you think twice about having transparent...

Bl Magic
Death (how often does the AI ever have this?)
Frog (i have never had this casted on me...ever)
Flare (can't miss anyways)

Wh Magic
Holy (see Flare)

Ti Magic
Demi 2 (this is reasonable)
Stop (doesn't do damage so it wouldn't cancel transparent)
Quick (100% quick...right)
Meteor (see Flare)

YY Magic
Petrify (this is very reasonable)

Right, but if you're taking double damage (or something similar) from magic while transparent, it *can* be a pain at times. So a 100% chance of being hit by a spell and taking double damage can definitely be something to worry about. And I'd definitely remove any accuracy enhancement for the person being invisible. It's enough of a bonus that the AI can't see you or hit you physically. If the AI can't see you or hit you, you should be smart enough to be able to get behind the enemy and get your accuracy boost that way.

Hey, Zodiac. I just realized something while looking through the front list: Does the patch for Knockback percentage of Throw Stone and Dash apply solely to those abilities (and their slots)? Or does it apply to any ability that uses that formula?

Quick (100% quick...right)

Considering that beneficial spells/abilities never really take evasion into consideration, this shouldn't be a problem if possible via ASM hacking.

Converts Knight Sword Formula to PA*WP.

made my EPSXE crash as soon as I tried selecting a target to attack using a K Sword (as soon as game had to calculate K Sword damage)

it gave an OPCODE error and closed... it was horrible! I got owned!

[Xifanie]

wow, my hax0r skills suckass

[Vanya]

It works just fine for me running on pSX. ^_^

[Archael]

It works just fine for me running on pSX. ^_^

it must work fine on ALL emus

[Vanya]

The point being that it may be a problem with ePSXe specifically. ^_^

[Archael]

The point being that it may be a problem with ePSXe specifically. ^_^

highly doubtful

I've run over 100 PS1 ISO's on this epsxe

no errors whatsoever

and 1 ASM hack causes it to crash?

I'll bet the problem is on the ASM hack, or more likely, me typing something wrong in the BATTLE.BIN

but I did it twice, with the same result...

[Vanya]

Then why does ePSXe seem to have a problem with an opcode that works fine on pSX? Also, it may even be a problem with a plug-in you're using. ^_^

[Asmo X]

try on an old version of epsxe

[Zozma]

okay im getting a little concered. you see between your and Razele's asm hacks which are all great btw, im a little nervous about overwriting one with another. are you both writing in totally different locations...?

[Skip Sandwich]

yes, zodiac is the one in charge of assiging our asm people thier own specific sections to write in.

[Zozma]

whew, i thought id  heard mention of that before but wasnt sure, good to know

[nates1984]

Areas to write NEW code. It is entirely possible that more then one of us may be altering preexisting code.

Possible, but highly unlikely.

0x0004B670 : ##
Maximum generated level with level + highest level in party

0x0004E0B0 : ##
Maximum levelup

So if I make the ## on these equal to 50 would that be the new max level for everything in the game?

[Xifanie]

Well technically yes. Set levels would override this though.
50(dec) = 32(hex)

[Austin]

Alright thanks, awesome job finding this stuff btw.

[Zozma]

woo quite interesting. thx zod
