Hello, sorry if this isn't the right place to ask, i'm messing with FFTPatcher and other tools to make my own mod and wish to make an item with the ability ''Move MP Up/Manafont'' attached to it, it is possible in some way ?

Attaching abilities to items isn't something that you can do with the patcher, no. You'd have to write some custom ASM code to get that, and even then it's been tried before with mixed results at best. If you really wanna give it a go, look into the ALMA spreadsheet, it has a tab for it iirc, but know that it will very likely cause a lot of other issues

Can't this be done with the 'Item Attribute Rewrite' ASM? I know there are two versions (1.1, older version, compatible with Patcher, included in FFTP  suite) and a newer spreadsheet only version.

I plan on using 1.1 for now, as the newer spreadsheet version looks amazing but also a lot more work.

According to the description you can use it to assign multiple item attributes to an item, or assign abilities to an item.

I think the ASM is by 'Pride'. If you go to that authors ASM thread on the forum, It has a few additional instructions/screenshots explaining how to use it.
