Various Old Stuff...
I doubt I posted any of this before, mostly because it's a bit complex, and not really that useful... And it's not just one game, either...
<u>Ehrgeiz (RPG Mode)</u>
Items info:
All of the items are 32 bit values. It's a bit unusual, and took me some time to figure out exactly what was with it... Half of the 32bits is either
1- Part of the protection/status digits, if it's equipment.
2- Part of the bits used for quanity, if it's either gold or magic stones.
or 3- Not a damn thing, if it's a generic item...
The general structure of the items is... Keeping in mind that the right-most will be the lower address...
0000 2211
An example is:
Buster Sword
Protection: All [Gaea 2x, others 1x], Status: Ultra, Durability: 10/10
FFFF D42B
The 1s are always where the item digits are, even though they go up to 3 digits in length.
2 is whatever the rest of the item data is, when combined with the item digits.
0... is as I said above
The digits for the left half, if it's equipment are:
0001 - Poseidon
0002 - Hades
0004 - Ares
0008 - Athena
0010 - Apollo
0020 - Artemis
0040 - Hermes
0080 - Bacchus
0100 - Daimon
0200 - Charon
0400 - Mammon
0800 - Used (status)
1000 - Ace (...)
2000 - Perfect (...)
1800 - King (...)
2800 - Impact (...)
3000 - Deluxe (...)
F800 - Ultra (...)
Just add them together to get what you want, but I'd recomend not using more than one status at a time... Any overflow past 4 digits must be added to the left-most byte of the right-most 16 bits... Ridiculous, I know...
As for that byte:
Current durability is calculated the value wanted times 2, converted of course to hex. The limit seems to be 31 (3Eh)
40 - Gaea
80 - Zeus
In short, if you want a piece of equipment to have Ultra status, and be protected by all 13 of the 'guardians', add:
FFFF C000 to the digits of the equipment...
You'll still want to either calculate the durability to match the item, or take it to the blacksmith and repair it before you try to use and and instantly have it destroyed...
Quanity of Coins/Magic Stones is different... They both start at 0.
0000 0129 - Coins
0000 012A - Magic Stones
Magic Stones are 'limited' to 50 per slot, and coins are limited to 100(?). This is not the actual limit though...
To get this, it's the same as the durability. Take the quanity you want, multiply it by 2, convert to hex, and add to the digits as:
QQQQ QQ??
You are limited to 2097151 (3FFFFEh) as the maximum quanity, though...
If you drop a larger than 100 Coins item, or a greater than 50 Magic Stones... It will split into 'maximum' quanity pieces if you drop it, or drop a different item in your inventory.
