RE: Final Fantasy VI: Restored Ability Names - Aegis Rstone - 11-03-2011
BTW: I'm not clear on what a "header" is. I do know that later versions of BSNES remove the header with snespurify.exe, so it might be best if I'm using the GBA font if it allowed a removed header, otherwise, the rom would be corrupt.
RE: Final Fantasy VI: Restored Ability Names - pjmcphee87 - 11-03-2011
What I would do is just apply all of the patches first, then use snespurify to remove the header. You can always re-add the header later if needed using NSRT, SnesTool, etc.

I've decided to test individual patches against this one just to narrow down which ones don't work.
I'm currently up to 60 patches with no conflicts (from Terri Senshi, Novalia Spirit, Imzogelmo, mblock129, a few of my own, and some other random ones).
I still have much more to add, but getting this far with no problems has my hopes high that the problem with darkmage's improvement project is just one or two fixes that I can just leave out.

I would be careful to use this patch together with any other patches that use the free space in bank C3. Some of the free space is used for code related to class names.

There -IS- a way to find out exactly what addresses are affected by a patch. If you are using LUNAR IPS, there's a small check that you can do on the box that says "create a log file". After you patch, a notepad file will be created, revealing the exact addresses at which changes are made, along with the number of bytes changed.
Hackers from the slickproductions site usually release a readme file with the relevant code changes that you need.

What I have been doing is combining every bug fix made by one author into one big patch, and also every graphic patch into one, and all of the text/script patches into one, which should mean longer log files, but far fewer of them to go through(11-08-2011, 04:21 PM)McPhizzle Wrote: Could I just assume that if the expanded names show up that everything is ok?No?

How's the second patch coming?

No news so far, it's been crazy, this week will be the busiest for me.
Will try to work on it though
RE: Final Fantasy VI: Restored Ability Names - Aegis Rstone - 11-14-2011
Good luck on this week. I know how it feels to be super busy. X.x; I haven't had time to work on my Translation.
