Character Class Names on Menu Screen - Amon1995 - 02-13-2014

I'd like to know how to add character class names to the menu screen?

Before making a asking thread, try using the Search Feature and searching for:
'Class Names'.
I just did and I found this!

In that thread Madsiur explains how to do it, you will need to be able to use a hex editor though.

It would be funny if Locke's class was "Thief Treasure Hunter"

I have no idea how to use a hex editor Sad

It's not that you can't use a hex editor, it's that you don't want to learn how or want to.
It's really not that hard to learn actually, I'm sure there are tutorials on youtube.

I looked at the link and the tutorials just make no sense to me, sorry

Then you are stuck in the world of applying existing patches and using FF3usME. This is a sad fate...

In your Class names function thread, you know how you've put the Code and then the number underneath like "C3/34A9", how do I find that in the hex editor? (I'm using WindHex)


RE: Character Class Names on Menu Screen - Gi Nattak - 02-15-2014

You would want to search for the offset. Go to Search>Goto to Offset, then you put in the File Position:
'334A9', and hit done or enter, and it will bring you to C3/34A9, assuming your ROM does not have a header.

So when searching for the offset, do not include the bank in the search, ie C3/34A9 is just 334A9.

Also you can/should go to Option>display offset as>SNES Hi-ROM. This will show you the bank on the left side there with the addresses, so you could manually scroll down and find C3/34A9 that way as well and know where you are at easier.

One other thing you should know, using the Shift key let's you move between the two areas there to edit, for like text - but for this you should stay there on the left side to edit the bytes. If you want to change a byte, just type in the new value and watch it change.
