Well I made it work..I changed the skill possess to a spell casted, in this case fire. It was simply, the only thing to watch is to jump at the right place at the end. I used Storm code as a base. You can change the #$00 to any other magic. You can make possess behave like any command but the code would be different each time.:
Here's a video showing the change: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89B42bQ003Q
Unless you use a really deficient product, a hex editor doesn't make a ROM crash. Try WindHex or HxD, they are free and work fine. It might also be your coding that make your ROM crash...
Code:
C2/17E5: A9 00 LDA #$00 (fire)
C2/17E7: 85 B6 STA $B6 (Set spell/animation)
C2/17E9: A9 02 LDA #$02 (Magic)
C2/17EB: 85 B5 STA $B5 (Set command)
C2/17ED: 4C 5F 17 JMP $175F (jump to subroutine C2/175F)
C2/18F0: EA NOP (nothing)
C2/18F1: EA NOP (nothing)
C2/18F2: EA NOP (nothing)Here's a video showing the change: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89B42bQ003Q
