The town dialog patch is in usme, once you've chose to expand your ROM to 32mb it's in the 'Manage expanded ROM' section.
We are born, live, die and then do the same thing over again.

Not meaning to necro but there are already a few threads about this program so I thought I would add some thoughts here. I think I have found an alternative the map replacement method using importing hex from a clean rom over the corrupted one to fix the Serpent Trench corruption issue. I worked up an IPS patch that will basically overwrite the corrupted map and allow you to start editing with FF3usME right after with no map corruption issues. If you do edit the map again and save you can always patch right after to fix any problems. I think some further testing is required though.
If this is something you guys are interested it I would be more then happy to submit the patch and/or write up real quick how I made it, it didn't take too long once the idea hit me.
Was actually wondering if this program was ever fixed or still had that problem. To be honest, not even sure what it can do, haven't played with it because everything keeps pointing out that bug.
So yeah, a work-around would be nifty.

With some further testing it is working spotty at best. What I did was basically take a clean rom, added a header and the expanded it with FF3usME. After that I made a copy of it and then took one of them and opened it with FF6LE Rogue and saved to corrupt it. I then made a IPS patch using the corrupted one as the unmodified and the clean expanded as the modified one. What I thought would happen was that if I patched over a corrupted rom it would then revert the changes so that I could freely map edit and then fix when needed.
Well...it does and doesn't. It also overwrites any world map changes made which I don't understand because the only difference in the roms when I made the patch was in the corruption of the ST map. Although I am far from an expert of the rom inner workings, so I am thinking maybe the overworld and ST maps have some sort of connection? When combining FF3usME edits, Rogue edits, and repatching, it mostly works but I also deal with some irreversable WoB map corruption. All of this to me means its not a viable option unless I am doing it incorrectly which is totally possible.
In any case I may try to look further into it but for now i'll put it on the backburner.
