Magic Rune Spells Data Location

[ninjaluc79]

Hi everyone.

Does anyone know where could I find the magic spells data in the ROM?

I would like to change some the spells' base power, like Thunder Runner (buff from 100 to 150), and more.

I have tried looking for it in this forum (I have seen it before) but I can't seem to find it.

As for the affinities, I think I'll just change Riou and Jowy's natural affinities to their respective TR's to B and A (to match their affinities to Resurrection and Darkness).

Thanks in advance.

/CDROM/280_GAME/MAGI.BIN

Code: Select all

#define NAMESIZE 21

#define DESCSIZE 32



/*

byte after description appears to be spell damage type:

0x22 - Enemy

0x23 - Heal

0x42 - Status



Next byte maybe spell delay?  Actually, I think target indicator.



Byte 2 after spell damage type seems to be the spell element

0x01 - Fire

0x02 - Water

0x03 - Wind



byte 3 after element possibly indicates enemy effect?*/



typedef struct s2magic {

	unsigned char	name[NAMESIZE];

	unsigned char	desc[DESCSIZE];

	unsigned char	unk1;

	unsigned char	unk2;

	unsigned char	element;

	unsigned char	unk4;

	unsigned char	unk5;

	unsigned char	unk6;

	unsigned char	unk7;

	signed int		damage;

} T_S2MAGIC;



static const wchar_t *ElementName[10] = {

	  L"Non-Elemental"

	, L"Fire"

	, L"Water"

	, L"Wind"

	, L"Earth"

	, L"Lightning"

	, L"Holy"

	, L"Darkness"

	, L"Bright Shield"

	, L"Unknown 1"

	//, L"Unknown 2"

};

Edit: If you're looking to find it directly in your disc image, open the MAGI.BIN file in a text editor an copy about 16 bytes that aren't all zero or something, and then search the ISO/BIN whatever for that. A string of 16 random bytes is usually enough to get only one match, even in fairly large files.

Many thanks. I will look into this as soon as I can.
