Switching Ending Scenes

Necropost!!!

It is possible to change the ending graphics without changing the index number. Each of the pointers goes to a section of code that defines multiple things, and usually ends with a jump to the next pointer. Within that section of code, there is an index lookup, followed by some JSRs. The first JSR is always the same: (JSR $E0B9). the 2nd JSR actually determines which object is on the table. So, for example, here is Terra's code:

Code:
C3/E54B:    A900        LDA #$00    (Index is 0 (Terra))
C3/E54D:    20B9E0      JSR $E0B9      <- Always the same
C3/E550:    20E4EF      JSR $EFE4      <- This shows the wine glass on the table
C3/E553:    2092E1      JSR $E192
C3/E556:    2068E4      JSR $E468
C3/E559:    203FE8      JSR $E83F
C3/E55C:    A07800      LDY #$0078
C3/E55F:    8420        STY $20
C3/E561:    4C23E1      JMP $E123


By switching out the JSRs, you can switch which object shows. I haven't yet figured out a pattern to the 2nd animation yet (the wine glass sparkle, the throwing stars, etc.). However, i assume it's just a matter of switching out the JSRs until you find the right one. For me, my tinkering has produced, for character slot D (Leo in my hack), a bunch of Moogles walking up to a wine glass and falling over.  Laugh It has so much charm I just might keep it.
