-
7F01D3 - Guardia Forest tabs collected? (past and present) (bit 4 set for present, bit 8 set for past if collected)
7F01D2 - Guardia Forest sealed chest opened? (past) (bit 80 set if opened)
7F01D1 - Guardia Forest Dead End sealed chest opened? (present) (bit 20 set if opened)
7F014A - Truce Inn sealed chest opened? (present) (bit 20 set if opened, If 7F004A has bit 40 set, you get powered up item)
Each chest and tab check a different address to see if it's collected.
If the guardia forest tab is collected, it sets bit 4 at 7F01D3, but when drawing it, it checks 7F00D3 to see if it's been collected, and hides it if it has...
Same with 7F01D1/7F00D1, etc...
If locations are different in your hacks, these types of addresses can be used for extra storyline counters and the likes. It would be good to go through all the events and make a master list of these.

If the guardia forest tab is collected, it sets bit 4 at 7F01D3, but when drawing it, it checks 7F00D3 to see if it's been collected, and hides it if it has...
This is the "Bug #4 Event Command 16 Wrong Address Displayed" I mentioned in e-mail yesterday. That's why I thought the bug should be in the Critical category. The check address is supposed to be the same, 7F01D3.
Nice find with the HDMA colors.

The sad part is, I read the email about an hour before posting. :oops:
I have egg on my face. Boiling hot, scalding egg.
The HDMA colors aren't palettized like other snes colors, but still pretty easy to edit. I'll post again tommorow with the ROM addresses for these.
Could you show a small pic of the coding...I want to see what lil detail you used to do that stuff...Like bit math byte math Mem-to-mem etc...
What effect are you wanting to see exactly? These RAM addresses can be modified with event code in TF, but some of these addresses are always being updated and cleared and changed, so using events to write to some of these addresses (like the HDMA colors) won't do any good. Most of these are being edited and discovered with Geiger's Snes9X Debugger, which allows for all sorts of information finding, and hacking of SNES ROMS, while playing the game.

7E1D1B - Scroll Right
7E1D1C - Scroll Top
7E1D1D - Scroll Bottom
soooo.... one map, and as many rooms as you can fit in it, and through events (value to mem) you can set the scroll mask properties in the event to correctly block out everything else in the map, all proper like. WOOO

I used GetObjectCoordinates yesterday. It's really easy to use so we'll definately be able to make use of the Scroll left/right/top bottom. Way to go chickenlump.
--jp
-
Make sure to change them before the screen loads (as soon as the event begins). Changing it after will still change it, it just won't reflect visually unless you refresh the screen somehow (like going in and out of the menu).
-
if you put it in startup/load that would work right?
--jp
-
I've tried it twice successfully, so it should work. Events load, and then the screen is drawn (I think). I'm going to see if I can find out more on this.

I'm wondering how to use the Epoch Memory correctly. What I'm doing so far is using an assign command to 7f0290/292 and putting in the exact coordinates. But it still isn't showing up. So
Do I have to somehow say what map it is (I see that 7F029A)
Do I have to do some hex calculation (like location ->Overworld exits)
Something else?
Note: TF 2.0 has 7f029A=Mem.DactylXCoord
--jp
-
^ all the addresses in your post are 7Fxxxx, they should be 7Exxxx.
The memory locations doc (posted in CL's original post) has a mistake with the addresses for that. TF is displaying the correct ones, though. Anyway, here's an idea of the code you'll want to use for the Epoch:
Step 1:
-----
Category Memory Copy
Command Memory Copy
Variant 4E
Copy to 7E0290
Data: 00000000A0
The four 00 bytes are the X and Y coords (2 bytes each) If you leave it like that it'll place the Epoch at 0,0 on the map (very upper-left corner) The A0 is the Epoch status byte. A0 is for upgraded, and IIRC 80 is for the original Epoch.
Here's an easy method to get the Epoch X and Y coords you want to use without having to calculate stuff. In ZSNES, fly the Epoch to where you want it to be parked in your event code. Then open the cheat search and hit Size 1 byte, Format Hex, Comparative Search, and press Start. Then press the View button. Scroll to 7E0290 and you'll see the 4 coordinates bytes.
Let's say I do this, and see the following:
7E0290 A8
7E0291 01
7EE292 10
7E0293 01
Then instead of the 00000000A0 above, enter A8011001A0.
Step 2:
-----
Assignment
Value-to-Mem
Variant 4B
Value 1F0
Store to 7E029F
Width Two Byte
The value box is where you put the map you want the Epoch to be on. In this case it is 1F0, 1000 AD map. Use 1F1 for 600 AD, 1F2 for 2300 AD, etc. etc.
-----
If you put in A8011001A0 for Data in Step 1, and 1F0 for Value in Step 2, it'll park a winged Epoch right in front of Crono's house. :D
BTW, don't forget, if you don't where the Epoch is you can press Select to view the zoomed out map and look for the flashing yellow dot.
Have fun.

Thanks I'll try it after the Rose Bowl game,
GO USC!!!
--jp

Ug. First USC loses now this. I got the epoch and everything to load where I wanted to (Note instead of doing Memory Copy, something I'm a little afraid of, I used 2 different Assignments to the memory spots) but Now when I go to enter the Epoch one member of my party enters but noone else follows. By far this is the most unexpected error I've ever encountered.
I'll update this post if I find out more info
Edit:
I've checked it on a completely different ROM with the save results here's my exact Code
Mem.EpochStatus=A0
Mem.EpochXCoord=193
Mem.EpochYCoord=11B
Mem.EpochMapLocation=1F0
AddPartyActive(Lucca)
AddPartyActive(Robo)
To test you can put that in the startup of Crono's Room, walk outside and try to go in the Epoch. It works if you don't have the two other people in your party
--jp

Found the problem. Your Epoch can't land in that spot, even though the PCs can walk there. It's too close to one of the nearby exits - Epoch can't land on exit tiles. When you change the X, Y coords, check the Epoch can land first, then look at the coords in the cheat search.
Definately a strange problem to run into, though. Not as frustrating as one problem I had when trying to figure out the Epoch a long time ago. The Epoch would be in one spot, but the shadow that's underneath it would be somewhere else. You could only board where the shadow was, and then the game would freeze...lol.
-
well JLukas you saved me hours of work......again. Using the overworld Tile Properties it looks like my epoch is completely surrounded by "Etheral" (pink)
and there's no exits anywhere...

You can land anywhere in the pink area. You can see the yellow (exit) very close to your original coords that was causing the problem.
Going in-game and checking the Epoch can land in the spot first is the best way, however. It's hard to tell from the TF map since it's often a matter of pixels, and the PCs (Epoch too, I think) move on the edges of tiles instead of directly in the middle of them. Plus, there's the 3D depth when the Epoch is flying versus parked. Anyway, if you can land, the memcpy should work OK.
Also, don't confuse that tile properties map with the Epoch NLZ (No Landing Zone.) The Epoch NLZ is a specific square on the map that is hardcoded so the Epoch can't land no matter what. On 1000 AD, it's the Fiona's Forest copytiles area in the middle of the ocean (turn off layer 1) If ever needed, you can adjust the coords for that in the No Landing Zone section in the menu bar on the left.
-
If possible I would like for you to take a look at my project. I've tried both methods (going in landing and browsing, and just doing an area completely surrounded by pink) and I get the same error.
I'm not doing 1000 AD by the way I just happened to reproduce the error there and it was easier to explain it to you. I'm trying to do it on 12,000 BC.
--jp
-
pm sent.
First though, try changing the X & Y coords by +/- 10 pixels and see if you can get them all on board. That's all I needed to do with the 1000 AD problem coords example.
-
Hmm, in fact, it looks like it could be the Epoch NLZ causing it, and you just happen to be editing on a spot on the map where it used to be. In the location menu on the left scroll to the bottom and change all 4 No Landing Zone boxes to 0.
-
It's currently grayed out...how do I make it editable?
--jp
-
Ah, you're using this on the F6 map? (Last Village instead of F4 snowing 12000 BC) Go to File -> Patches and apply the All Maps Have NLZ Patch. then File -> Save, close TF completely and then open it again and edit. In fact, it should just default to all zeros by itself.
-
tear...I really thought we had it that time. Still no dice even w/o a no landing zone. I PM'd you the patch and instructions, so by all means feel free to go to bed. I'll mess around a bit more and edit this post if I figure it out before tomorrow. Kinda got a personal vendetta going here now.
A bit of discouraging news....I use the "debug girl" to get rid of 2 party members, and then fly in my fancy epoch and land it in a perfectly good spot. Then I save and open TF and make the same girl add my two party members back. I leave my epoch is still parked where I left it....and only one character gets in.....
We getting to the shadow problem in weirdness (jk still doesn't sound nearly as weird as the shadow haha)??
--jp
-
Hmm...it's very picky with pixels.
I put in X coord 04A3 and Y coord 01B3. This puts it in the middle of the snow field. Try to board and PC2 and PC3 get stuck.
Changed X coord to 04A0 and y coord to 01B0 and now it works perfect.
Use "clean" numbers for the second byte - 00, 10, 20, 30, 40, etc. Tried a bunch of tests and it's working - so far......
FYI, your Epoch time gauge when you press Y is broken - were you changing stuff in OW events, or any idea how it got broken? It doesn't appear to be related to the coords/boarding problem.
-
Wow, it was that easy haha. Um yea were porting the whole project over to a clean ROM cause of that and the 65 MIL map. I'll try it with the new Coords.
Awesome, just tried it myself and it works fine. I'll add this to my little How to... thread.

I'm not sure if Overworld Memory and Location Memory are different BUT
7E0041
7E0042
7E0045
7E0046
These change Layer 3 on the overworld...I'm not sure exactly how yet. It's solidity color and brightness. Probably 43, and 44 have something to do with it too.
--jp
-
Yeah, I remember those values, I never bothered posting them though.
When I found them, I poked around in the RAM for other addresses overworld related.
(Overworld Map = push select map thing)
7E001C - Overworld Brightness
7E0020 - Overworld Map centering (left to right position)
7E0026 - Overworld Map centering (up and down position)
7E002C - Overworld Map stretching (left to right)
7E002E - Overworld Map Diagonal stretching
7E0032 - Overworld Map stretching (up and down)
7E0045 - Overworld Map color oddity (00 - off/01 - on)
7E0046 - Overworld Map background Stretching (or something)
7E0119 - Location Screen Brightness
07 - pause value
0F - normal value
7E0121 - Screen color overlay (color value overlays Layers 1 & 2 only)
-
7E0110 - Set bit 01 to disable menu access
Location 007 is one example of a location that uses this. At the beginning of an event, look in the startup for "Mem.000110 = 01"
-
I'm not sure whether somebody has already mentioned it. To find out what time period you are in (if you are in a place accessible from every time period, like the Black Omen), you can use this code.
Use : Time
7F01A8 & 02 : 12000 BC
7F01A8 & 04 : 600 AD
7F01A8 & 08 : 1000 AD
* Must look for the values of the rest time periods *
-
7E0110 - prevents players from pausing the game
-
7E0111 - prevents users from pausing the game
Heh... >_<
-
What's the difference between these two? And... What is the value needed to prevent pausing the game?
-
Adding something before I add to the encyclopedia:
Finally, it appears memory range 7F0020-7F004F (48 bytes) is extra space reserved for additional treasure chests. It would be possible to use this as memory expansion space similar to the empty item inventory slots, provided you don't plan on creating more treasure chests that could potentially conflict. You could, for example, use 7F0030-7F004F for your own purposes, leaving 7F0020-7F002F for treasure chest expansion (127 slots, which is obviously a lot)
-
I have added everything in this thread (except stuff already in the original offests by Geiger) to a new text file.
http://www.chronocompendium.com/Term/Memory_Locations
But that doesn't seem to be preserving tabs I used in some places in Textpad; the raw text can be found at
http://cc.herograw.org/Black/Other/Offsets/memoryvalues.txt
-
Does anyone know the memory address for the battle mode (active/wait stuff)? It seems it's not in the list yet.
-
7E2990 seems to be it (8X for Wait, CX for Active), this address also holds the value for Battle Speed, where X is the battle speed.
-
Cheers. It works perfectly.

7E21A2 - Crono's Palette (2 bytes per color).
7E1EF0 - Song Instruments used in current song

28771 - HDMA Shading colors in ROM (while I have it fresh in my mind).
I found it in ROM once before, but I forgot to write it down. >_<
This is for Menu Shading. Just play around with it (note the pattern, try to stick with it... )
After playing around with it, I've gotten it to shade different layers (just the text, the character's portraits...) seperate layers, or over all layers at once!
It seems to be Color, then layer, then color, then layer, then color...
CC (color) DL (direction of shading(style)/Layer?)
CC DL CC DL CC DL CC DL etc...
7E9DE8 (or so) in RAM
It's easy to mess with it in RAM to get neat effects first, then try modifying the ROM to match.
I know, I'm stuck on this subject. :?
I'm looking for just the right shade of .... red... for something.... >_>

We need to make this topic sticky. Its one of the more important.
-
Mmmmm... sticky......
Dialog HDMA colors are at about 7F1520 in RAM. It looks about the same as the menu colors, for the most part.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v109/Chickenlump/purdyz2.png)
-
Nice - so can you remove shading on the windows altogether?
-
Yes I can, I have before, I'll just have to look up how I went about it. I found all this stuff by accident when I went looking for a way to disable the shading originally. The menu's look great unshaded. :D
I'm going to have to read up on some HDMA documents, this stuff is neat.
If I can do this by accident, I'm sure after I know how it works I can do stuff like this and know what's going on and why.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v109/Chickenlump/purdyz3.png)
-
That looks nice but it messes up with one of the layers but i would love to have that implemented in my hack. what did you do, and i'll see if i can do it on my rom, if not, i might have you to do it for me :D
-
I changed 6 bytes in memory. At first sprites wouldn't appear under the dialog window at all, then I got them to show up under there just fine. I'll have to do some reading up and more experiments on it
There are 2 parts to the dialog window, the border, and the inner, and these 2 chunks reflect that.
Simply change the addresses to these, and freeze it. It will stay if you just write it there, but the moment you leave the area, or enter a menu, the addresses will be refreshed.
7F1524 - 09
7F1525 - 56
7F1526 - 78
7F1528 - 09
7F1529 - 52
7F152A - 78
It looks neat, but I'm not sure how it will react with, for example, a translucent layer 3, or spell effects, etc...
-
Something isn't right, because i put that code in to the cheat device, and the bottom half of the text box make the text and anything under it negative

I think that Breath of Fire II hacker pulled it off.
-
Yes, that man is good, very good. I'm wanting to say his name is D4s. He knows what he is doing, whereas every post of mine you see is me fooling around first, and then, maybe one day, reading up and understanding later. :lol:
I know what you are doing wrong (I forgot to mention). You have done it correctly, I just forgot to mention that I edited the HDMA color table located directly under the addresses you used. All I basically did was edit the color table to all be just one solid color, basically the shading on the dialog box to be just one color instead of going from light to dark. The top is light, and the bottom is dark, which is why you are seeing almost an inverted effect towards the bottom of the box. If you view it in Geiger's snes9x debugger's memory editor, you will see the color table. It would be insane to edit that table and turn it into cheat codes (it's not a huge color table, but... so many codes... >_>)
I'll post an example later on.
-
yeah, i try to get that program but his site is down :( i'll try again later.

http://www.romhacking.net/utils/snes9x1.43.ep9r8.7z (http://www.romhacking.net/utils/snes9x1.43.ep9r8.7z)
Bookmark and give romhacking.net a good looking through too in your spare time. It has almost everything romhacking related, plenty of tools and documents, a good place for noobs and experts alike, even if you aren't serious about romhacking, some documents are a good read just find out how things work.
Everything is easier to work with if you can see it happening. Looking at a memory address change to a certain value as the game is playing makes everything click, when you know what the number means in the game, and why it's being written when it is...
It's a HUGE help.
-
nice thing to find out, How to lock out the menu.
Address
000110 - 00 = you can use the menu / 01 = locks out the menu.
you can even test it out by going adding it as a cheat.

Sorry about my site. My server has a habit of either randomly shutting itself off or having the hard drive go batshit crazy. In either case, no web serving is going to get done. It usually takes me a few days to notice something's wrong. Of course, this particular computer worked fine for about two years, right up to the point I formatted the hard drive and made it my server machine. :bleh:
Unfortunately, I do not have the cash reserves to solve this problem right now. Once I am gainfully employed again, I plan to purchase a low-end laptop to replace my server.

JLukas pointed these out to me. Theya re epoch status related. The reason I point them out is because it's caused me a few bugs in the past. If you somehow go from a location directly from a "flying epoch" (IE the end of time), you cannot be warped to an OW directly because the game still thinks you are in a "flying epoch"......kind of complicated but I'll give an example
You fly the epoch to the end of time, you then talk to gaspar and he sends you to...oh I dont know....um the dark ages overworld.
This will not work unless you do the following:
Store 00 to 7E027E
Store 00 to 7E027F
Store A0 to 7E0294
That'll make sure the game doesn't still think you are in the epoch.

Perhaps a submission system similar to http://www.smwcentral.net/?p=map&type=ram (http://www.smwcentral.net/?p=map&type=ram) would be helpful? I know I'd love to have one for a couple games (besides this one.)

7E2880 - If not 00, experience, tech point, and gold granting is skipped.
How did you discover this? I see where it's being checked at the end of battle, but could not find a case where any non-zero value is being stored here.
Having all characters with max level/all techs/max gold does not change it, nor running away. Is there a battle in the game without rewards?
-
I stumbled onto it when working on eighth character stuff. The tech data I moved down ran into that byte.
-
Is there a battle in the game without rewards?
Do the scripted battles count, the automatic ones from the opening demo sequences?
-
Good idea. I just tested it out but no luck there, either. The check will only occur if the battle finishes (all enemies defeated) Final Lavos battle also gave no result. Hmm...
-
What about Spekkio? I can't remember if he gives reward or not...
-
What about Spekkio? I can't remember if he gives reward or not...
I know you get like a Magic tab for beating him at different levels. And other things like ethers etc...
-
Spekkio's prizes are given outside of the battle.
-
It may be a leftover from prototypes, and they decided to not use the feature, or went about it differently for the demo sequences in the final. Perhaps an event command sets that byte before a battle in one of the many events? It's neat that it's there now for our usage if it is indeed unused.
-
Spekkio's prizes are given outside of the battle.
Oh, sorry. Didn't quite know what you guys were talking about.
Maybe I shouldn't have posted anything at all lol.
-
Oh, sorry. Didn't quite know what you guys were talking about.
Maybe I shouldn't have posted anything at all lol.
It sounded like you did until you said that.
There's a way to turn off granting exp, gold, and tech points... I think it still gives items.
We're thinking of places it might be used.
-
Haha, oh well. Was just trying to help if I could, but ot be honest just glanced at the topic.
I'll leave the editing with TF to you guys who know what you are doing.
Can't think of any places though where you didn't receive some kind of prize, whether it be exp, money, items etc... after a fight. Hmmmm. I'll be playing CT to beta-test the 2nd CT+ demo here soon, so I'll be on the lookout I guess.
-
Per Vehek:
The game seems to load a value from variables starting at 7E967C to determine what sprite assembly size to use in battle. 7E967C seems to represent the sprite assembly size for all three PCs in battle.
In a related matter, we've discovered that it's currently impossible to have characters with Size 1 sprite assembly in the party without serious sprite glitching -- details are in this thread (http://www.chronocompendium.com/Forums/index.php?topic=5987.msg117133#msg117133).
Anyone think a remedy for this type of sprite glitching is possible? I think the Size 1 sprite's extra tiles are overlapping the second character's tiles in VRAM. Several times per second (possibly whenever the tiles are refreshed in memory), the situation becomes the reverse -- the second character's tiles become dominant, and the game engine is pulling from the second character to construct the lead (Size 1) character. CT is apparently hard-coded to handle only Size 0 sprites in the party -- all the original player characters have Size 0 sprites after all.
This memory management issue doesn't crop up in battle though, I suppose because the game engine uses some address other than 7E967C to handle Field sprites.

Character byte 26 - Set to 80 to make a character always have berserk status.
-
Isn't there an item that does that? Maybe when you have that item equipped it sets that bit?
--JP
-
The Berserker does that, but while equipped it does not set that bit.
Edit: I've examined character byte 26 further, and this is what I've found:
80 - Berserk
40 - Magic Defense
20 - Haste
10 - ???
8 - ???
4 - Protect
2 - ???
1 - ???
-
Hmm... are the addresses relative to an offset in RAM or is this for battery save files I can open with a hex editor?
-
Most of these are RAM addresses. My last one is for the 0x50 bytes starting at 7E2600 for each character.
-
I was hoping to do a CT-specific rom corruptor using this info.
-
The most this would be useful for is a save stat corrupter. Geiger's Offsets would be a much better start on a ROM corrupter.
-
Darn. I was hoping to make one that can like... swap character graphics in real time.
-
Real time character graphics swapping might be possible with RAM manipulation, but you'd need to target a specific emulator and palettes would screw up in battle and certain menus, because those load them based on character index, not palette index.
-
Yeah. I doubt the debugger has source code available. Tried it out and it would seem interesting as a corruption engine.

7F01CD - Two byte value for adjusting shop prices. Value/0x100 is the percentage of the final price. Medina Market sets 7F01CE to a random value of 5 or higher at first, and later sets 7F01CD to 00BF, resulting in a 25% reduction.
Technical: The game actually multiplies item prices by the value, then takes the two highest result bytes as the new price.

Hey everyone, just wanted to say thanks so much for the great info about RAM Addresses! Thanks to the Screen Scrolling address, I was able to start making some full animated GIF maps of areas.
https://puu.sh/FnqDi/05abfa0ac1.gif (https://puu.sh/FnqDi/05abfa0ac1.gif)
It's kind of confusing how to get it working, so I am going to explain how to utilize it in the text below.
7E1D00 Activate Screen Scrolling
Activate = 1
Deactivate = 0
*Note - Activating the screen scroll will make it so you can no longer go through any screen transitions.
Make sure to make a savestate before you activate this, otherwise you'll be stuck in the room.
7E1D01 Screen Scrolling X-Axis
X-Axis Scroll (2-Byte Signed)
Full screen changes every 8200, accurate to the pixel
Screen 1 = 0
Screen 2 = 8200
Screen 3 = 16400
Screen 4 = 24600
7E1D02 Screen Scrolling (Do not use)
7E1D03 Screen Scrolling Y-Axis
Y-Axis Scroll (2-Byte Signed)
The tops of the screens have a 3 pixel overlap with the previous screen
Screen 1 - 0
Screen 2 = 26
Screen 3 = 52
Screen 4 = 78
Screen 5 = 104
Something I noticed is that if you transition screens, they don't always mesh up perfectly with the screen you came from. In the gif example that I posted above, there was a 17 pixel discrepancy which I had to use 16x16 pallets to re-build the best I could. I used one extra Y-pixel from other pallets as necessary. This can get kind of annoying when animations are in this gap...
Anyway, I just wanted to document this just in case someone else is interested in getting full screen caps. Hope this is useful to someone, someday!
Edit: Also, there are a lot more Memory Addresses that aren't mentioned here on a Japanese wiki as well. Most notably, ones that can move each of the main characters to any designated location on the map.

*Note: The screen will not scroll with you, so this would only be useful for minor adjustments (e.g. - accessing areas that are blocked by an NPC). If you move within the same screen, the screen will begin to scroll again when you take control of your character - if it can.
There are so many that I don't have time to translate it at the moment... But if you all are interested, I can hack away at it bit by bit.

We have for information in the Chrono Trigger Database (https://www.chronocompendium.com/Term/Modification.html#Geiger.27s_Offsets). In addition to that, I've mapped out all character data in the 7E26xx area.
The PC X/Y position there isn't 100% accurate. That data is set by object number, and in some locations the PCs will be pushed down one, so Crono would be at 7E1804 instead.

Oh wow. I don't understand it all, but that gif is neat.
