The little textbox that briefly appears at the top of the screen when you get a preemptive strike.
Does FF3usME handle this in one of its text-editing screens, or will I have to look for the string in the ROM? The letter count is the same, so it should be fine if I do.
This is a very little, very unimportant tweak, but I thought I might as well ask.

Any message that is displayed on top and concerns battle is not handled by FF3usME. I once removed the steal message and the textbox display and it was handled in bank C1. It should be the same thing for the "preemptive strike" message, although I didn't found the string by looking in the disassembly. The preemptive stike itself is set in bank C2.

I tried loading the .tbl file that FF3usME came with into windhex and searching for "Preemptive attack," but I didn't find anything. Do you think the text would be stored that way, or with a different .tbl?

Use the ff3battle.tbl, and search for "Preemptive". I see them grouped @ D1F270


We are born, live, die and then do the same thing over again.

There is a pointer table to change the length of the message displayed, in case you would want to do that. My computer crashed a couple of months ago, and I lost the location of the pointer table. But it should be around the address that Nattak provided.
