8th Playable Character Possible?! (Updating!)

[justin3009]

Nice!  I'll start fiddling around as well.

2F3EB - Controls the pose that's in the menu xD!

The area where I said change it from 00 to 01...Do NOT do that.  I recommend 18...it changes the weapon stuff to Blue when it's lower or higher...but it's better then having it destroy every other color.

[Shinrin]

I think i figured out problems 6 and 7 of Justin's problems, the PC isn't loaded in Event Code.

[justin3009]

Well we have it loading up in the area with it being controlled "infinite" as the usual...but it doesn't like it.

[Mauron]

I played around with $C1/D5EF, and it seems Crono and Magus use the same attack data.

3) Weapon = Armor (Not sure)

Is there anything that shows the different weapon icons mean anything other than identification?

5) A certain level destroys his/her stats and completely nulls them.

What do we know about how and where stat growth is stored? I remember reading somewhere it was based on fixed values, so maybe it's hitting bad data.

[Vehek]

Judging from the Magus power glitch in the CE demo, something involved with stat growth is at $2F-$30 of a character's stat data.

Over at Slick Productions, Lenophis suggested to Shinrin that stats are in a look-up table.

Currently, I think the bad palette in the menu and the shop menu blanking are because of some palette conflict.

[justin3009]

Yes.  I'm very certain of that palette mistake.  I had the same issue with 8th character in character exchange.  if only I could remember where I put the heroes palettes...I could probably find the other part of the data..I hate myself for not taking good enough notes.

[Mauron]

I started looking into changing the 8th character's attack, and so far I've found the subroutine at $C1/C90B gets the value into 7E002C, but I'm not clear how it works.

Maybe someone else will see what I'm missing.

[justin3009]

Sorry for bumping up these old topics, but there's no way in HELL i'm letting this and the 6th letter one die.  We're so close to accomplishing both, so why not get it done if we can?

[Mauron]

I'm sure these can be done, we just need to get moving on them.

...I just realized my shirt is on inside out.

[justin3009]

Kind of an out of place post, but maybe someone should Sticky this and the 6th letter threads.  They're both gigantic add-ons to CT and I think it'd be kinda nice incase people want to try them.

[justin3009]

- Well....The palette's getting a "Little" bit closer...but it destroys a button and does this X_X

Edit: - =/

Edit 2: I think the palette/sprite data is between 02F3E1 - 02F3E7

Edit 3: - Wtf?

[Schala Zeal]

Edit 3: - Wtf?

Isn't that a red Megaman sprite in Lucca's slot? haha

[justin3009]

Naw, that's Johnny facing backwards xD.

[justin3009]

Double post, but here's an updated video of the 8th character.
