After the post of someone who couldn't get the game run properly with the 2 patches mentioned in the title, I discovery that there is a conflict between the two patches. They use the same free space in bank C0. To resolve this, I suggest doing the following steps. I won't release a super patch which makes both patches work together as I'm not the creator of any of the two...
First apply the 30,000 damage patch. It's the one that change the most code while the 24 bit monster HP change less code. The second step consist of writing manually the 24 bit HP patch .This patch consist of 2 jump to free space in bank C0 where you put the rest of the code. Originally the two routine you jump to where starting at C0/D613 and C0/D631. Here they are:
First routine (C0/D613):
Code: 99 F4 3B STA $3BF4,Y
99 1C 3C STA $3C1C,Y
DA PHX
8A TXA
4A LSR A
4A LSR A
4A LSR A
4A LSR A
4A LSR A
AA TAX
E2 20 SEP #$20
BF 50 CF CF LDA $CFCF50,X
99 78 3C STA $3C78,Y
99 79 3C STA $3C79,Y
FA PLX
C2 20 REP #$20
6B RTL
Code: B9 F4 3B LDA $3BF4,Y
E5 EE SBC $EE
99 F4 3B STA $3BF4,Y
48 PHA
08 PHP
98 TYA
E9 08 00 SBC #$0008
30 2F BMI (2F bytes down)
28 PLP
68 PLA
F0 03 BEQ (3 bytes down)
90 13 BCC (13 bytes down)
6B RTL
48 PHA
E2 20 SEP #$20
B9 78 3C LDA $3C78,Y
10 04 BPL (4 bytes down)
C2 20 REP #$20
68 PLA
6B RTL
C2 20 REP #$20
68 PLA
C2 02 REP #$02
6B RTL
48 PHA
E2 20 SEP #$20
B9 78 3C LDA $3C78,Y
D0 05 BNE (5 bytes down)
C2 20 REP #$20
68 PLA
18 CLC
6B RTL
3A DEC A
99 78 3C STA $3C78,Y
C2 20 REP #$20
68 RTL
38 SEC
6B RTL
28 PLP
68 PLA
6B RTL
I suggest writing these two portions of code elsewhere. There is plenty of free space in C0 starting at C0/DC10 up to C0/EF9F. This is more than enough. The only thing left to do is to change the offset of the two JSL in the following portion of code. You will also need to put any NOP you see. This code is also taken from the 24 bit HP patch applied to a clean ROM:
First Jump
Code: C2/1342: 22 31 D6 C0 JSL $C0D631
C2/1346: EA NOP
C2/1347: EA NOP
C2/1348: EA NOP
C2/1349: EA NOP
Code: C2/2CCB: 22 13 D6 C0 JSL $C0D613
C2/2CCF: EA NOP
C2/2CD0: EA NOP
That's it! This should make both patches work together!

"Sometimes ninjas do wrong to each other, and in dat way the force of tha earf' comes around da moon - and at that presence, da dirt, it overshadows the grass, so you're like, I can't cut dis grass, there's no sun comin' through. So in order to enable each other the two fruits have to look each other in da eye and understand we can only be right, as da ripe is wrong, you know what I mean?"

Hey! Hey! This is not a thread to spread rumors, although I find this one pretty interesting. It would be a honor but with responsibilities as well. I'm really dedicated to modifying and understanding FFVI and I only try to share the tiny bit I know about it.
By the way, the 32k damage patch does interfere with other patches that use some free space in C0 such as these ones:
Code: +-----------------------------------------------------------+
| Offsets bytes Name Author |
|-----------------------------------------------------------|
|C0D674-C0D688 21 Not Scary Enough Imzogelmo |
|C0D674-C0D68C 25 FF3dashB Master ZED |
|C0D674-C0D68C 25 FF3dashC Master ZED |
|C0D660-C0D685 38 To Joker Doom (1.0) Lenophis |

i was wondering if it isn't too much to ask if someone could email me a copy of ff6 with the 24 bit hp patch in it. since i don't know the hex editing stuff nor have time to learn it this way i could have a rom with the patch installed on it to make my dream ff6 rom.

If you have the time to make a dream version of FF6 you have time to learn hex editing, the most basic thing outside using an editor. Such a statement is a mark of laziness or motivation lacking.

In fact, he could still edit the last 65536 HP of the monster. Only the first of the 3 bytes has to be edited with a hex editor.

Ah well, no, asking for or requesting a patch is okay, this is a hacking site after all.
What Sute there seems to be saying, is anything outside of ROM hacking that is illegal or of bad taste is not permitted. 'Hacks' meaning computer hacks of some kind, like viruses and such. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong about this.
We are born, live, die and then do the same thing over again.
