I modified the "Scream" description to this:

Calls darkness to himself to become stronger.{Newline}
{Color 08}Range{Color 00}:Auto  {Color 08}Effect{Color 00}:1{Newline}
{Color 08}Add{Color 00}:Berserk Haste Innocent Protect Shell

And I changed the ability name to "Unholy rage"
And, when I try to patch the iso, this happens

Someone can help me?

Not true, I got that error 3 times in a row, to verify it wasn't gonna work. I closed, reopened with the words i edited back to their original, and bam, it patched my already patched ISO.

Part of the problem is that (Unless it was fixed) there's a text limit, if you give abilities, items etc. names that are too long, it won't patch.

There isn't any way to bypass this text limit?

QuoteCalls darkness to himself to become stronger.{Newline}
{Color 08}Range{Color 00}:Auto {Color 08}Effect{Color 00}:1{Newline}
{Color 08}Add{Color 00}:Berserk Haste Innocent Protect Shell

That... shouldn't hit a text limit in the first place.

Narrow it down.

Do you get this error if you only change Scream to unholy rage?

Do you get this error if you only change scream's description?
Just another rebel plotting rebellion.

I got the error when I edited them both and saved
So I should try them one by one?
Ok, later I will
